Brave AI says about ex post facto laws in Canada:

Canada has a constitutional prohibition on ex post facto laws, which are laws that apply to past actions or events in a way that is unfavorable to the accused. This prohibition is enshrined in section 11(g) of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which states that “a person cannot be convicted of an offence if the act or omission did not constitute an offence at the time it was committed.”

So, I assume it will be found unConstitutional in their courts?

Peter Denies Jesus (Luke 22)

54 And apprehending him, they led him to the high priest's house. But Peter followed afar off. 55 And when they had kindled a fire in the midst of the hall, and were sitting about it, Peter was in the midst of them. 56 Whom when a certain servant maid had seen sitting at the light, and had earnestly beheld him, she said: This man also was with him. 57 But he denied him, saying: Woman, I know him not. 58 And after a little while, another seeing him, said: Thou also art one of them. But Peter said: O man, I am not. 59 And after the space, as it were of one hour, another certain man affirmed, saying: Of a truth, this man was also with him; for he is also a Galilean. 60 And Peter said: Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, as he was yet speaking, the cock crew. 61 And the Lord turning looked on Peter. And Peter remembered the word of the Lord, as he had said: Before the cock crow, thou shalt deny me thrice. 62 And Peter going out, wept bitterly.

I will say, for those who think they want to flip tables:

some kind of preparation for being "banned" in some capacity might be good to make; in some cases you can just rely on God without preparation

and also only to flip the tables God wants (some tables might seem like they should be flipped, but maybe God doesn't want us to be the ones to flip them)

idk what this meme is saying exactly but the right needs to get on the ball with creating a "worker's movement" like the "antiwork" movement of the left;

particularly our focus is more on how regulations and taxes strangle the ability for people to earn "family wages" (enough to provide for a family) or "living wages" (enough to provide for a living)

other potentially legal methods have been used to extract more and more wealth from workers... for example the payment of profits at businesses to shareholders, rather than to distribute such profits to the workers (who have produced the "actual value" of whatever product is being made to sell)

Medievals had the idea of a "just price", which was different from but perhaps related to the idea of the "labor theory of value" which is often rejected today. While the prevailing "subjective theory of value" has some obvious merit, it has less obvious problems of enabling labor value to be thought to be "completely subjective" to the point of employers being willing to pay "exploitative" or insufficient wages in proportion to the amount of productivity provided to the worker.

Many people only have their labor to sell and thus are in a precariously dependent position; hence it would be wise for society to prioritize the value of such labor and structure work and payment of workers in ways that are motivating and sufficient for living a decent life.

There is probably no shortage of problems to be remedied and topics to discuss related to these issues

it seems there was opposition to having "superfluous wealth", or wealth beyond one's needs; naturally the traditional breadwinner of a family might need some money to provide for the family, or to provide for setbacks. Yet generally the Gospel I think really only talks about "food and clothing" as being necessities, and if people have these that beyond that they might consider being generous with the "superfluous wealth" they have.

...until this is flipped around and facial recognition is used to identify those who are "pro-genocide", whose lives will then be ruined? They're playing a dangerous game with this "cancel culture"

Well this is a strange topic but I thought it was kind of a thing, if you look up "showering with your kids" articles on a search engine; example articles that came up (I do not necessarily agree with them and haven't read through them):

kinda lied about being experts too tbh, they just use the force of law to prevent people competing with them by requiring some people to have "loicenses" to do their jobs at times

hmmm my only hesitation is that a lot of regulations seem useless and harmful... many people however fail to understand that in a free market, individuals or groups are liable for the environmental damage of other properties, so they could be sued for damages at least, which would give some "regulation" or introduce some incentives in to the picture to prevent pollution.

Unfortunately such planes may simply continue to pollute, just in more hidden ways? Not that we have proven much about what pollution is done currently, or have we proven some of that has been happening?

conservatives need to have their own "antiwork" or "work reform" movements, these corporations are anti-conservative, anti-capitalist, and so on. We don't need for example a 32 hour work week mandated like Bernie Sanders is clamoring for but I don't see a reason why conservatives can't fight for better working conditions and pay voluntarily where it works and is appropriate. The companies are ripping laborers off and have no problem stealing from Americans by hiring illegals and socializing those costs on the average American

I think banning Tiktok would be unwise for many reasons, it just seems like an attempt to suppress some of the "free speech" that exists on Tiktok that doesn't exist on U.S. platforms
