Doug Ford is waging an attack on working class people on behalf of landlords, and is accelerating the homelessness crisis. Relentlessly transferring wealth from the poor to the rich. Cruel.

Just published - I did a form interview on PBL2, policing, the crisis of the present, fascism, and the struggle against carcerality with the brilliant folks at 1919! 1919mag.com/1919-radio/t...

My friend told me that her 14 year old son started doing laundry on Sundays for some of his elderly neighbors. He doesn't charge for the labor. And now he is the most popular person in the building and has non stop pies, cookies, and cake. The 14 year old should be our model of modern masculinity.

Hands off Haiti, and no more imperial interventions. The “chaos” cited as the reason for intervention is directly related to the coup d’état organized by Canada, France and the US.
