That’s why it’s on the list at all. Limit the definition of political action to the most inert things and relegate everything else to obscurity. Make change or the actions required for a better world unthinkable.
I promise you any flaws you perceive in the Canadian healthcare system are there because of the “under capitalism” part not because its socialized. (Also because its a piecemeal plan that doesnt cover dental and shit).
And living in a country with a private healthcare system, its 1000% worse than you can even imagine.
You should look in to how socialist countries have handled healthcare infrastructure. Cuba and the old GDR are notable for the effectiveness of their healthcare system. There’s a book called “Stasi State or socialist paradise” that has a chapter or two on how the GDR handled medical care. And of course Cuba is famous for training large numbers of doctors and sending them all over the world. iirc the deal in Cuba is that you can go to medical school, and in exchange you basically get posted to a clinic somewhere for a few years. Could be urban, could be rural, could be anywhere. Once you’ve done your period of service your options open up to pursue whatever. It ensures they can train a lot of doctors and also that even the most rural areas will have trained medical professionals near by all the time.
Hogs whine about emergency services all the time, but every protest I’ve ever been in and almost everyone I’ve ever seen parts like water to let emergency vehicles through. It’s a complete none issue that they made up in their heads to be mad abut.
people do really think this way. I was incredibly close to getting ran over by a fascist in a truck at one of the George Floyd uprising protests in my city and I had several liberal ex-friends tell me it was my fault for blocking the road.
I got roped in to doing perimeter security a couple of times, watching the rear and flanks of protests for potential attacks. Not like I really could have done much. Like, I guess I could jump just before the car hits me so I go through the windshield? idk. Scary shit.
people need to be blocking traffic for shits and gigs. Just walking to the grocery store and take your sweet time in the cross walk. The public space should be for people
I walk the same pace on the crosswalk as the sidewalk and I swear most drivers you’re in the way of expect you to fucking run. Always slightly inching past the line to show their impatience, as if they’re not getting around 20x faster than me either way, and I don’t have to wait just as long as them til I get my right of way
>blocking traffic is the #3 worst thing anyone can possibly do

to be fair, almost everything on this list is extraordinarily tame and nonthreatening to power

Canadian healhcare is also being dismantled province by province these days.

Also, cyclists need to take the entire lane instead of unsafely riding on the edge of the road.
Saw someone drive out of their way specifically to drive through protesters and people went crazy to defend the person that drove through others
