Join the hatred! Leave a comment.

By Edar 'Cinnikull' Aihil

I wonder what makes one of Canada’s largest widely-read-mainstream-media-giant-newspaper-blah-etc like The Globe and Mail to invite instant reader comments as if it were a cheap-opinion discussion forum or a personal opinion blog (like this one, I admit!) and not an informed-opinion national newspaper.

As if the internet is not providing enough angry and hateful “discussion” and “dialogue”, ha!

I would like to request the editors of The Globe and Mail to rename “Join the Conversation, Leave a Comment” on their ‘discussions’ to “Join the Hatred, Leave a Comment“.

    I am looking for people to contribute to a new podcast (see website below) about the experience of being an immigrant (expatriate, refugee, aid worker, academic, international businessperson, etc.) living in another country. I would want a panel of people FROM every continent TO every continent to contribute.

    an article would be 2 pages, I need 3 articles per year.

    please check us out at:

    Bush is forever saying that democracies do not invade other countries and start wars. Well, he did just that. He invaded Iraq, started a war, and killed people. What do you think? How does that work in a democracy again? How does being more threatening make us more likeable?Isn’t the country with
    the most weapons the biggest threat to the rest of the world? When one country is the biggest threat to the rest of the world, isn’t that likely to be the most hated country?
    Are we safer today than we were before?
    The more people that the government puts in jails, the safer we are told to think we are. The real terrorists are wherever they are, but they aren’t living in a country with bars on the windows. We are.
