I'm from Belleville, this is embarrassing πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ I promise this is a beautiful city with only a handful of idiots

[–] jerkface 27 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Aw, no one blames Belleville. This is typical Ontario. Could be any town.

Yeah even in native circles this stupidity is rampant.

Facebook and most popular social media is like brain cancer at this point. Most people look at this crap every day and believe like mindless zombies everything they see.

Social media has tapped into the most basic animal cores of the human brain and it's leading everyone towards a cliff. Progress is measured by how fast we can run towards that abyss.

They are very loud, though. Do they still try to arrest the police or whatever they do? I'm pretty sure I watched a video of something like that.

I'm sorry, what?

[–] [email protected] 12 points 2 years ago

Must be thinking of the incident in Peterborough…

Queen Romana (queen of Canada in case you missed the news) had her insane followers attempt to arrest some police officers. The video should be put to the Benny Hill music.

That's out of date.

Now she claims to be queen of the world. And somehow she still has followers who appear to be true believers in her insane ramblings.

I honor you Queen ~~Carlotta~~ Romana!

NSFW? It is a clip from John Waters 1977 classic "Desperate Living",

[–] masterofn001 2 points 2 years ago

Waters always has a way of making me feel very uneasy about humanity.

This clip did not disappoint.

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=ZqcEjQ021C8

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I'm open-source, check me out at GitHub.

No, that was the followers of Queen Dildo.

They're a completely different level of insanity.

And, no, that article is not satire.

Hey, I'm sorry those idiots made the city look bad and victimized all its residents.
