I can’t help notice that the tone at the state-owned, state-run CBC hate-fest central—their web site—which is one of the most divisive and hateful web sites I’ve seen in all of north America—has softened a lot this time around. I’m not sure if they aren’t approving as many of the pure, vile, hate speech as they usually do, or if the CBC fans just haven’t woken up yet—it’s only 10:30 or something Pacific time.
SEE my whole category of CBC Reader Comments of Hate, where I’ve captured some of the more recent and common sentiments over there amongst CBC viewers and web site readers, including (on the story of a Canadian soldier’s death): “THIS IS WHAT YOU DESERVE”. … I’d love to think my publicizing of the CBC’s HATE is why the tone has softened.
But there are already plenty of hateful posts in the latest CBC article about the latest Canadian casualties in the noble war in Afghanistan.
Note that CBC comment posts are pre-approved (“moderated”) by CBC staff.

Congratulations to the freedom fighters in Afghanistan. Victory against occupation is only a matter of time.

No problem, they come cheap and we got lots more willing to die.

Pity…right before Christmas. The Coalition wanted to put an end to this … oh well…guess they ‘ll just keep dying over there… for nothing

We passed the 100 mark for nothing. All died in vain. All died for the profit system. Although the men themselves were most likely honorable man their cause was not. It is said this whole ” Support the Troops” Mantra from the Conservatives. […]

I can’t get an image out of my mind: it is an image of Harper expressing his condolences and respect for these three soldiers. And that will only be demeaning to them, since he is an odious liar and a wannabe dictator. [Later apologized after being blasted by other commenters]
God bless our heroic troops who volunteer their very lives for the service of our nation and for peace, freedom and democracy in that noble war; and God bless their families and friends. I salute you. You are all heroes to me and I stand in awe of you all.
