They probably didn't want this wedge, and the leak to the media that forced Canadian PM's hand was probably not motivated by neither India or Canada's interests. If I was a conspiracy theorist, I would think that a third part

I didn't know this, and these types of details would definitely modulate my (and probably other's) perception of India's justification. Example: if there was credible imminent threat, and uncooperative foreign government givi

Well I take offense if India killed someone in Canada. And if Canada killed someone in India, I would also take offense. I wish none of these parties had such disappointing relationships.

If I'm unaware and about to be educated, I'm up for it.

Explain this in more details. The outline I gather of your position is that "the US killed Ben Laden on Pakistani territory so India killed someone on Canadian territory, Canada had it coming for what they did to Ben Laden". Fill

So I would expect that warrants would be issued, India and Canada would cooperate in the investigation and sentences would be handed by cooperating judicial systems. There's precedent for cross country justice being served. If this isn

Distraction from the relevant point by bringing up cases where the accusee might be construed as having performed the same act as the accused. It's a distraction because it detracts from whether the accused did or didn't do the ac

The impact on the immediate victim and family members pales in comparison to the large scale impact this can have by driving a wedge between nations that ought to be friendly and allied. I don't wish India and Canada (and the West) to

Whataboutism.

This is whataboutism, and you imply that extraterritorial killing by India on Canadian soil is ok, because Ben Laden. And so what new status quo are you suggesting by this? Ben Laden was a well known terrorist and the US never hid the fact

There might be a link between the groups responsible in a 1985 terrorist attack, and 38y later someone related to the movement being (allegedly) assassinated by the Indian government on Canadian soil. But regardless of the allegations again

It seems unlikely to be false and made up, it's not like Canada goes about saying stuff like this, historically. At the same time it's not hard to imagine a case where revealing the evidence/sources would compromise the capab

If the politician is scum as a result of having ought to judge the corporations' lobby as being scum, then it follows that the politician is able to come up with a calculus where the corporation is scum. And if the politician is able t

I'm with you on what you're saying. But that's different because this is a hands off system that doesn't really change anything to humans' experience, unlike one where you're asking someone to not cook after su

Loss aversion suggests we'll get out of our way to find a maximalist solution where we get to have our cake and eat it too, instead of reneging on anything. Like EV cars: they had to become better than ICE cars for the switch to happen

The idea that we should somehow just follow what nature dictates and revert to less is never going to work. We'll go mine asteroids if there's not enough material on Earth to make the batteries we need to run our industries 24&#x2

Teslas in NA use NMC chemistry (or a variant) which is much more dangerous than the LFP chemistry commonly used on boats. LFP cells are much harder to set on fire, and they don't burn anywhere as violently as more volatile chemistries.

A gas tank, a propane tank, heck even a diesel tank, are all more dangerous than my LFP pack. Also my LFP pack weights 81kg, not a ton, definitely not multiple tons.

Sometimes I wonder if people with your opinion are purposefully ignoring the fact that the grid's power composition is easier to change than the car fleet's. Isn't it obvious to you that decoupling the cars from direct fossil

My cat has a lot of real estate so I put a lot of solar. I rarely motor and mostly sail, but when I have extra power because the battery is full and the sun is shining, I can get a small speed boost for free. I have plenty of excess energy

You overestimate the danger of batteries on boats. LFP batteries are commonplace on boats. Also, diesel electric propulsion is commonplace in large ships. Nowadays, even small yachts are becoming hybrid or pure electric. My friend's 37

I personally more easily envision personal uses of radioactive materials than psychedelics. Self powered devices, vs some psychedelic trip?
