SUVs are higher at the front and three times more likely to kill a child when they hit them. SUV drivers drag the child under their vehicle, and then they crush the child to death. It's incredible that SUVs don't have higher tax, and why not lower speed limits. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

They assaulted the drivers, beat them, and forced them to strip,” Esleem said. “The moment Ahmad raised his hands in surrender, one of the soldiers drew his M16 rifle and shot him directly in the head. It was a field execution and a deliberate killing of a civilian driver who had complied with them.

There's the copaganda you see on detective shows then there's this: How the RCMP actually does (doesn't) do its job. There's no reforming this level of incompetence. Disband the Richmond RCMP and rebuild from the ground up. thetyee.ca/News/2026/07...

🔴 NEW: Palantir Co-Founder Peter Thiel and Reform UK’s Cambridge University Recruitment Pipeline Project Revealed By @nafeez.bsky.social, @peterjukes.bsky.social and @hardeepmatharu.bsky.social The world-renowned academic institution has nothing to say in response to a six-month investigation…

If countries kept growing the share of clean power at the same rate as in the past 6 years, when would they have 100% non-fossil power? By this simple measure, 13 developed countries are on track to clean power by 2035, and 7 developing countries by 2050. Others need to speed up.

‘Polarization’ has become the master concept for diagnosing our current democratic crisis. But this is not polarization. It is the radicalization of the political right. By misdiagnosing it, we risk becoming complicit in the crisis. 🧵 Just out in Perspectives on Politics doi.org/10.1017/S153...

At this point I’m almost wondering if a Conservative minority government would’ve been less harmful, if only because they’d be less effective at implementing the same policies. The pushback would be louder, there’d be checks and balances. But Carney is bulldozing Canada with conservative reforms…

Correct your priors: Private money is going after clean energy, governments are using public money to prop up fossil fuels "About 59% of all money spent on the fossil fuel system came from taxpayers in 2015. By 2025, that climbed to 68% and spiked at 78% in 2022." www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...

New transit payment systems in NYC & around the country, run by a company with ex-military contractor executives & a partnership with Palantir, collect data on movements of riders and haven't explained what they do with it, including whether they give it to ICE. prospect.org/2026/07/06/t...

The CEO of CN Rail rakes in $18.6M/year while refusing to electrify and modernise the tracks, update signaling or prioritise passenger services or even basic safety. This is the inevitable result as @mark-carney.bsky.social fails to clean up the corrupt cesspool. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

The difference in how US big tech treats the news media in Australia compared to Canada really couldn't more stark, could it? The hidden price of selling out to corporate interests for decades is that corporations no longer take you seriously. #cdnmedia www.smh.com.au/business/com...

The AI “race” to build the most hyperscale data centres is like the automobile company race to build the biggest monster SUV: Even if we “win” we still lose.

Jesse Marsh would be way better coach if he just got a personality transplant.

Urgent: Israeli soldiers are beating Dr Hussam Abu Safiya to death with a hammer. 'They brought me here to kill me,' he told his lawyer, who barely recognised the paediatrician because of the torture inflicted on him for refusing to abandon his patients.

What an aggressive, positive start by Canada forcing Morocco on the back foot. 🇨🇦 ⚽️ 🇲🇦

We all need a break from the Canada's demented economic self-destruction. Instead of wasting tens of billions on planet-killing pipelines, France is putting that money into a huge expansion of planet-saving public transportation – the green transition in action! www.grandparisexpress.fr

Google's total electricity consumption jumped from 31 terawatt hours (TWh) in 2024 to 43 TWh in 2025. This is the biggest increase in their electricity consumption ever, writes @ketanjoshi.co It reflects the "obscene energy hunger" of bloated generative AI systems. ketanjoshi.co/2026/07/01/g...

Criticizing "socialism" by defaulting to Stalin and Mao – mass-murdering authoritarians – is rhetorically weak AF. It’s like criticising "capitalism" by referring to Mussolini and Franco to make your point. Engage a bit deeper please.

Every point made here about Europe applies a thousandfold to Canada. PM Carney, halfwit AI minister Solomon and their nerd reich pals at Shopify absolutely do not have a legitimate plan for Canadian tech sovereignty. Not even close. www.techpolicy.press/does-europe-...

Imagine trusting your pension funds with this freakshow. That's precisely what millions of Canadians are doing at this very moment. www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A3s...

More and more convinced that hyperscale data centres are to our age what cars and highways were a century ago: A wrong technological choice to be avoided. And by "wrong" I mean anti-social, violent, wasteful, community-destroying, planet-destroying, etc).

As of June, one quarter of the board overseeing the $800bn Canada Pension Plan are also directors or executives of fossil fuel companies. Tell the federal government that Canadians need climate experts, not fossil fuel interests, overseeing the CPP win.newmode.net/shiftaction/... #cdnpoli #pensions

A lot of media coverage of the ‘AI’ reading of the Herculaneum scrolls really fails to understand what’s happened here. There’s no language processing happening, the AI/ML is not trained on a corpus of texts or language. It can detect ink to see shapes. HUMAN EXPERTS are then transcribing the text.

What a revolting embarrassment you are, @cbcnews.ca. Stop carrying water for the rogue apartheid state committing genocide.

When looking at the full global picture it becomes obvious that we are now living in a much changed climate. In summer 1976, north-west Europe was a lonely hot spot in a sea of cooler temperatures. In summer 2025, the world is bright red. The climate is unrecognisable compared to 50 years ago.

Every UCP Cabinet meeting begins like this.

Keir Starmer resigns as Prime Minister In our documentary, we ask whether Starmer's decision to send hundreds of spy flights over Gaza amid the genocide should put him in the Hague👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=0fk3...

this is so insane

No obvious blunders, except going back on nearly every position you campaigned on, openly supporting a genocide, throwing trans people under the bus against the overwhelming popular opinion that supported them, pushing for more austerity when published articles showed it resulted in deaths...

"Every decision I’ve taken has been about putting the country I love first. " In his resignation speech, racist arsehole Keir Starmer finally admits prioritising the genocidal entity over the UK. 😂

This tripe is what happens when you let an ex-IDF prison guard become editor in chief of the Atlantic.

As we are passing through 1.5°C IPCC (2022) - one of the areas most at risk are areas which are already close to human and animal thermal limits. Reminder: All adaptation has physical limits. There comes a point where the only option is retreat.

🚨 New research by us! 📣 Most British drivers don't know how dangerous SUVs are to other road users, but adding information to SUV marketing materials seems to do almost nothing to change people's plans to buy SUVs Here's a 🧵 on why harder action is going to be needed 1/10

And: People haven’t sufficiently grasped what it will mean to have this generation of students relying heavily on AI at university & in advanced degrees - who are becoming the future physicians and engineers and teachers and journalists & whose academic arc has been constant cognitive surrender 😬

Require those driving cars above a given weight to get a different licence, akin to an HGV licence.

Deeply tragic, and my fucking god - SUVs are killers and need to be regulated and restricted. www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...

And this is why I am always going off about people needing to stop thinking of Canada as "benign" peacekeeper or an "unwilling" imperialist partner. Former DHS head Kristi Noem has just been hired by BC mining company, NovaRed Mining headquartered in Vancouver. globalnews.ca/news/1190912...
