In Episode 11 of The Krusty Canuck Podcast, we discuss the PC Culture and how it has gone too far, YouTube censorship, and some good news on my part. All that and much more coming up on The KDU Podcast on June 8th, 2019.
00:04:38.540So that being said, so I show up at four o'clock on the said Thursday, you know, waiting for a briefing from my supervisor.
00:04:47.180And instead I get hauled into an office in front of three people, two I've never even met, who are supposedly some kind of administrators for this and administrators for that.
00:04:59.160I forget their abbreviation, but they had a long list of bullshit.
00:05:02.380So more or less, my contract was canceled.
00:05:05.700I was canned because I said this to somebody and someone got offended and no one told me the name of said person that was offended.
00:05:13.580No one said, uh, uh, you should have done this or you should have done that.
00:05:56.640It's the kind of look that a teacher gives you when you think for yourself.
00:06:00.700The kind of look that some, some scholars used to give you a hard time for and put you in the corner for, you know, that kind of scolding, scowling wench look.
00:06:12.460Anyhow, folks, I'm not going to mention any names.
00:06:15.100I'm not going to mention who was saying, said, or did what, or I'm not going to do it.
00:06:20.940I'm not going to give them a platform, right?
00:06:23.760But conflict resolution is a common thing, right?
00:06:29.780It doesn't matter if it's in the workforce.
00:06:31.200It doesn't mean if you're taking a bus or a cab, ordering takeout.
00:06:35.080It's, it's something that we adults, quote unquote, adults can handle, supposed to handle.
00:06:40.680We're supposed to be taught this from the time we're fucking teenagers till we get into the adult world, how to solve a problem without dropping your gloves and doing the old two minute hockey fight.
00:06:50.120But I guess there's some adults out there that are so quick to jump, quick to assume and quick to point guilt because someone got offended.
00:06:58.440I'll say again, ladies and gentlemen, I am not against anybody who is homosexual, anybody who is bisexual, or anyone who is not exactly sure, right?
00:07:14.940You know, you deserve the same freedom as anybody else.
00:07:18.660You deserve to be married, deserve to be happy, deserve to be prosperous just like everybody else, right?
00:07:24.220But for crying out loud, folks, for you adults out there who have a hard time understanding other people's opinions, maybe it's time you start fucking growing up, eh?
00:07:38.680I can tell you numerous stories about rotten things that were said to me prior to my service, during my service, while I was training, while I wasn't training, while I was operational, while I wasn't operational.
00:07:49.780And a lot of these comments came from civilians, not fellow troops, being called a baby killer, being called a murderer, being called a warmonger, being called a fascist, right?
00:08:04.320People have said rotten things to me, but hey, I'm not sitting there trying to dismiss anyone who's doing it, or trying to take their job away for doing it, right?
00:08:15.180Or trying to discomfort them because you're briefly discomforted.
00:08:18.400Now, let's look at something when you are offended by something.
00:08:22.640What physical altercation happens to your body when you're offended?
00:08:28.560You hear something you don't like, what, the next day you grow up, you get a horn on your face?
00:08:36.340You know, you all of a sudden magically get leprosy because someone said something you disagree with?
00:08:41.500Therefore, you're infected with some kind of fucking disease?
00:08:46.100Or you're just goddamn afraid to admit that people don't think like you, right?
00:08:51.460And whether you're so-called quote-unquote new stock Canadian or old stock Canadian, whatever goddamn trendy buzzwords going around to describe people, if you can't handle someone's opinion on a situation, right, or on anyone's lifestyle for that matter, then maybe you shouldn't contribute to conversation.
00:09:12.180You're going to be offended every time someone opens up their mouth about something you disagree with, then you're really not growing up, are you?
00:09:19.940You're not really grasping something called reality.
00:10:56.840This broadcast is in no way out there to get you or to hurt your livelihoods or to hurt your style of leadership or to the incredible work you have done for some of our soldiers.
00:11:08.360But I will say this, to the administration there, with your lackluster fucking leadership, really sucks.
00:11:19.260Now, as a soldier, conflict resolutions were coming and going all the fucking time.
00:11:24.600One, if I said something as a leader that would offend one of my troops, the troop would, number one, have the opportunity to talk to me about it if he or she felt like it.
00:11:35.560Or two, go directly to my immediate supervisor and talk to them about it.
00:11:41.460So either myself or my direct supervisor could resolve the issue, lickety-split.
00:11:47.420That way there's no paper trail, no drama, no heartache.
00:11:51.620We can carry on being adults and serving our country with a purpose.
00:11:56.000Now, these clowns, who are supposed to represent morale and welfare, firstly, I think they fuck some morale.
00:12:05.560And they really don't give two shits about the welfare of all of their personnel.
00:12:10.300So, take your PC bullshit and your mandates and stick it where the fucking sun don't shine.
00:12:21.520After watching the how-to videos and how to be a team player and all this great stuff and how to be effective and communicative and honest and open,
00:12:30.960you sure as hell weren't honest with me.
00:18:21.080You know, we're consumers when it comes to watching news programs, to magazines, to articles, to writing, to creating, to dancing interpretively, and all that other stuff.
00:19:21.020But I would like a donation or two or three or whatever you feel like giving.
00:19:24.280If you do donate $5 to $10 a month, the patron part of the Podbean page, I will gladly mail you a t-shirt of your choice from my teespring.com page under Krusty Canuck.
00:19:39.340That means that you give me $5 to $10 or whatever a month between that price range.
00:19:48.300I will gladly mail you a t-shirt of your choice.
00:19:51.060Just pick one, whatever you like to do, donate, and then I'll give it to you.
00:20:56.060Anyhow, so the joyful news I had earlier.
00:20:59.360Yes, I got myself a nice rebate from the power company based on the carbon taxes that I had been paying ever since, or before Notley and after she left.
00:21:12.400Let me tell you, folks, it was about $600.
00:21:14.300I'm not bragging, but that $600 has went to my gas tank, groceries, and actually paid my telephone bill.
