I’m sure we can all agree to that. But not all the vacuousness comes from the left. The Zionism project rests on a vacuous appeal to some historical snapshot of real estate musical chairs as well. And of course their opponents’ perspective does too.
But the only honest way to frame real estate ownership is whomever has the power gets the land. But modern humans don’t like honesty at that level so we talk around it with various euphemisms and falsehoods.

I’m not a very popular dad at the various kid groups and the parks we take Finley to. Inevitably, two little boys get in trouble and the mom’s start with that ridiculous “violence never solves anything” crap, and I feel compelled to correct them.

So you want to coldcock one of the moms?
Based off their reactions, you would think I had.

Ha just yesterday my 3 year old hit my 5 year old and he complained to me, I told him to just hit her back. Is that bad? She needs to learn there are consequences. At playgrounds it is remarkable how involved parents get at trying to keep the line fair at a slide or to intervene when kids fight, or to stop a kid from climbing the slide backwards. I am almost at the extreme side these days where I very much want my kids to figure it out and maybe I'm biased but my kids are usually the best behaved at these places now.

I know I’m not a colonist.
But as Canuck, I still apologize. That’s almost genetic.
UBC is a fine university. Good nurses and doctors graduate from there. I’d rather do medicine there or see a doctor who graduated from there than Toronto. B.C. is expensive though. We’ve a saying, “B.C.” -> “Bring Cash” .
