It's ridiculous that we find out about Canadian military deployments from foreign press versus regular briefings from DND/CA. Also, why are our tax dollars spent on enforcing siege warfare against people of Korea instead of helping improve lives for Canadians.

The operation runs since 2018 and has been announced back then: https://www.canada.ca/en/department-national-defence/services/operations/military-operations/current-operations/operation-neon.html

these are obviously new deployments the public should know about

[-] Scotty@scribe.disroot.org 2 points 1 week ago

@Yogthos

Just read statement in the linked source. It clearly says that Canada has been deploying CP-140 Aurora several times over for years, and when these deployments happened. The last time it was in September-October 2025.

You are posting a link of a propaganda mouthpiece run by a dictatorial government conveying a statement that is simply false.

That doesn't contradict anything I said, and I absolutely love how mad you get when you're forced to read news outside your propaganda bubble. Stay mad racist.

[-] Scotty@scribe.disroot.org 0 points 1 week ago

Wow, what another strongly worded comment. Do whatever you want, you are wrong here. Again.

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 0 points 1 week ago

You keep on trying to invent reality there. It's adorable.

You have an interesting way to describe the enforcement of UN sanctions against the North Korean regime to hinder and slow down their ballistic missile development program by literally blocking the transfer of rocket fuel and components to their country.

The people of North Korea are definitely suffering, but it ain't because their government is being slowed down in their development of nuclear ICBMs.

Also, where is your criticism of the North Korean regime for spending their people's resources into ballistic and nuclear programs while their people are starving?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 week ago

Oh man wait till you find out that DPRK has a border with Russia and China who will continue supplying them with rocket fuel and components. Anybody with a functioning brain and minimal knowledge of geography understands that this argument is complete nonsense.

All the sanctions do is harm the lives of regular people in Korea. And Canada is participating in crimes against humanity here while taking resources from people at home to do it.

Also, where is your criticism of the North Korean regime for spending their people’s resources into ballistic and nuclear programs while their people are starving?

Ah yes, why would DPRK want to arm itself when it is being openly threatened by the Burger Reich. It's such a mystery. Maybe they don't want to be invaded the way Iran is right now. Just a thought.

Meanwhile, where is your criticism of western regimes run by the pedophile oligarchs who starve their own people to fight endless wars on the global majority?

[-] GuyIncognito@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Even Fukuyama agrees that North Korea was right to get nukes.

[-] jimd@lemmy.ca 4 points 1 week ago

these sanctions hurt people like in Cuba

Oh my you're right. That explains it.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 3 points 1 week ago

The unfortunate part is, I agree with many of their points, such as Israel is committing genocide, what the us is doing in Iran is stupid/horrible/etc, people should have housing/food/etc. But as soon as you say what russia is doing is also bad, suddenly im a fascist who is supporting American hegemony. Oh well

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

This is such a great illustration how effective propaganda in the west is. You accept that all my points are valid, but because the pedophile oligarchs told you the war in Ukraine is entirely Russia's fault you accept that completely uncritically. Especially weird given that even western media has been openly covering rampant fascism in Ukraine for many years. Oh well

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world 5 points 1 week ago

If you could only flip that around. You would see just how much you are affected by eastern propaganda, you are blindly accepting what putin is saying about Ukraine, and accepting invading another country and bombing schools and hospitals. The irony is there. Is Ukraine "the good guys?" No, but i respect their right for sovereignty, and fighting back against russian expansionism. In a similar vein, is Hamas "the good guys" no, but i understand they have been fighting against Israeli genocide. Is Iran "good" no, but i respect their sovereignty and recognize the fact that the us and Israel had no business doing what they are doing.

Be specific, what eastern propaganda do you claim I'm affected by. Please do quote something I said that's blindly accepting what putin is saying about Ukraine, and accepting invading another country and bombing schools and hospitals. What I quote is what's being openly reported in mainstream western media https://thehill.com/opinion/5198022-ukraine-conflict-disinformation/

It's weird for you to claim that you accept people's right to sovereignty when the legitimate government in Ukraine was overthrown in a violent western backed coup. Top people in the US, like Rubio, have openly stated now that Ukraine is their proxy. Nobody is even hiding it. It's also strange that your concept of sovereignty and self determination doesn't extend to people of Donbas who did not wish to be ruled by this regime. Evidently you want everything to be neatly black and white so it conveniently fits your conception of the world.

Nowhere have I said that Russian invasion of Ukraine was a good thing. What I've actually said is that it was an obvious response to NATO encroachment on Russian borders.

[-] T00l_shed@lemmy.world -2 points 1 week ago

Every time. Its the same with the .ml, oh well im not going to engage with you anymore, I've done it countless times before and its always been plugging ears and mud slinging. have a great life!

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 week ago

It love it how you lot immediately disperse like roaches when the kitchen light is turned on when presented with sources and facts.

[-] humanspiral@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

Our enthusiasm for implementing US foreign policy shows no restraint despite direct attacks from US on Canada. As a bonus, we can aggravate a nuclear power to make an example of the costs of aggravating DPRK, with US calling us pathethic losers for getting nuked as the response.

Racist violent settler colony behaves like a racist violent settler colony.

[-] Scotty@scribe.disroot.org 2 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

The only thing that is weirder than the linked source and the topic are the .ml comments in this thread.

Addition of a somewhat related news: N Korea's Kim welcomes fellow Putin ally Lukashenko with fanfare

[-] grte@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 week ago

You post garbage from "news" outlets like The Bureau.
