Danielle Smith should go swim a couple laps in a tailings pond before she does her next press conference about how everyone who opposes oil and gas is an enemy of her short-sighted & corrupt petrostate. I think it would do wonders to help her see the other side's point of view. #abpoli #ableg

"To-day they are burning wheat and grain, the means of human life. To-morrow they will be burning living human bodies."

From R.P. Dutt's Fascism and Social Revolution: "The more obvious and glaring expressions of this process, the burning of foodstuffs, the dismantling of machinery that is still in good condition, strike the imagination of all. But all do not yet see the full significance of these symptoms:" (1/3)

Why is it that every food trend that blows up with GenZ is just some variation of a hard crust you have to break through to slurp up the slime that lies within.

I guess the qualifier for being a dictator nowadays is just "America doesn't like you"

"K-shaped economy" this and "k-shaped economy" that. Bitch, just say Marx was right.

Crazy that the @ndp.ca want credit for not forcing an election (yet again propping up the liberal government with no concessions) and also voting no on the budget. They really think we're stupid

"The workers united will never be defeated" they chant. But, they forgot to account for the fact that Gil McGowan and his cronies are timid little weasels who can't stand the idea that breaking the law might go on their permanent record.

Albertan politicians love to talk about Peter Lougheed the way Mormons talk about Joseph Smith.

America is a country barreling into a constitutional crisis where nobody knows what a constitutional crisis is.

@albertateachers.bsky.social should set up child care for $150 a week. All proceeds go into the strike fund. Get picketing teachers to run the daycare to earn their strike pay. #abpoli #teacherstrike #ndp

Any reason you’re not posting this fucking insane clip everywhere?

Honestly I feel like if they banned all the gun props from the Edmonton Expo it would be at least half as frustrating to attend.

The war in Ukraine isn't even over yet but they're sending Freeland over to claim our share of the booty.

If Poilievre wants to talk about introducing restrictions on who can run in elections maybe we should look at restricting candidacy to those who actually live in the riding.

So @heathermcpherson.bsky.social made a big deal about asking what is wrong with the NDP and then came back saying that the problem is that they just aren't liberal enough lmao

Capital, and thus the exploitation of wage-labour from which it arises, is the backbone of the economy.

It's not techno feudalism it's just that you don't know what capitalism is

So why exactly do people care about Ethan Klein? Don't you have lives?

It's my birthday, in lieu of gifts please vote for a communist candidate

"Allegedly" Gil McGowan lectured the women's caucus at the AFL for 22 minutes about how they should vote for him so he can give it to Cori next time. Gil is a corrupt opportunist who believes he has more authority over the Alberta labour movement than the working class. #2025AFLConvention

Gil McGowan praising a strikebreaking government at a union rally tells you everything you need to know about the current state of the labour movement in Alberta

People on the left need to learn how to use canva

Mark Carney talks like a more professional Donald Trump, "we're going to build this country like never before" is such a Trump line.

NEW: I attended the all-candidates forum for Edmonton Centre last night. The event included the Liberal and NDP candidates, as well as candidates from three revolutionary socialist parties, the Christian Heritage Party and a severely unwell independent. open.substack.com/pub/theorcha...

I don't want a switch 2, I just want Donkey Kong 64 on the switch virtual console

I know there is a lot to be mad about at this particular moment but I feel like people are not sufficiently mad about Edmonton Public Schools actively working to segregate autistic children out of regular classrooms.

I know that sinophobia is the real problem but JD Vance should learn what a peasant is.

Sure set the election for my 30th birthday, that's fine Mark. 😮‍💨

The more I hear people trying to paint Mark Carney as some man of the people with humble beginnings the more it sounds like Javert's "I was born with scum like you, I am from the gutter too"

Imagine being granted the support of a king to set out on an endeavor to conquer and govern nearly 4 million square kilometers of resource rich land, to spend centuries transforming the lives of the people on that land to better exploit them, only to then end up as a failed department store.

Jean-Luc Picard is a Kulak who should have been purged from Starfleet

Social Democratic party leader publicly mourns the passing and honours the accomplishments of a billionaire business magnate and hereditary spiritual leader. Raising the question: with Social Democrats like these, who needs Conservatives?

We have been naught, we shall be all! Happy October Revolution Day

"Religious Communism" Is Opportunist and Anti-Marxist #socialism #communism #marxism #s4a #socialismforall socialismforall.substack.com/p/religious-...

“What’s your name?” “John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt. Yours?” “You’re never going to believe this”

I don't want a historical epic glorifying Napoleon I and his conquests. I want a historical comedy about how Napoleon III bumbled his way into and out of being the Emperor of France.

submarine news cycle: low stakes straightforward one 19 year old with distressingly little agency russian coup news cycle: high stakes confusing a lot of 19 year olds with distressingly high amounts of agency

If you're concerned about the billionaires lost at sea but can't have the slightest amount of compassion for refugees drowning at sea, you're the problem.
