Sure didn’t take much for the “men are protectors” crowd to disappear. Wonder where they went.

Area man who refuses to get appropriate national security clearance says roving gangs of electric cars pose risk to national security.

If you read one thing today, it should be this Iran report says 16,500 dead in ‘genocide under digital darkness’ www.thetimes.com/article/01ba...

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

The people looking entirely nonplussed always kills me

You're telling me a woman was forced to give up her trophy to a biological male

Yeah, people made fun of us while it was happening and comment sections are still full of people accusing Ottawa residents of being weak whiners. But you truly cannot understand the torture of constant. fucking. honking. unless you've experienced it yourself. Our nervous systems were shot to shit.

As someone who lives downtown Ottawa and who was living dead centre of the "Red Zone" where I had to literally show ID at a police checkpoint in order to get to my apartment, a huge middle finger to this and what it's about to enable.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

Glad to see Will leading the charge here. Would love to see the government do this en-masse, because as I argue for in my latest column, this would be the most effective way for all of us to be able to leave for good: thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

But I also think the boundary between state and private violence tends to break down in gender violence cases—eg in police and prosecutors’ famous indifference to sexual violence cases, an indifference which in practice gives state sanction to so-called private male sexual violence against women.

He is simultaneously a man enacting interpersonal gendered domination *and also* a state agent enacting violence against dissenters. Part of that is disturbing about ICE’s impunity is that it gives state power and backing to individual men’s grievances.

I think about this quote from the Luddite movement all the time

The concept of posting “Canada is not considering a ban of X” as a QUOTE of your post condemning deepfake sexual abuse happening **ON X** of women and kids………….

From a Nov 2020 article, referencing a panel that @sarahkendzior.bsky.social did with @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social. “We are not a place where, if you get a bad president, he can corrupt half the judiciary, take over half the media, tell the universities what to teach.”, Kristol says…

All the evidence always shows this

We can’t ignore the gendered dynamics of what we just saw katemanne.substack.com/p/renee-good...

Countless women already learned the hard way that gender insubordination was punishable by death, but their executions happened at home & were mislabeled as private disputes. Now officers of the law openly celebrate their role as enforcers & executioners of male supremacy. bsky.app/profile/ebha...

The MAGA regime is currently doubling down on its tactical stance of “we will kill women like dogs for merely displeasing us.”

The reports of violence, arbitrary arrests and intimidation tactics by the American regime against its own people are profoundly concerning. This Canadian strongly condemns the killing of protestors, and urges the UnSA to allow for freedom of expression & peaceful assembly without fear of reprisal.

I'm sorry, but no, it wasn't released to be exculpatory. It was a recruitment tool, and until we all accept that heinous and horrifying reality, we will continue to fumble in the dark without meaningful resistance.

Which academics in Canada are doing work on fascism in Canada?

It is a BREATH OF FRESH AIR to see people able to mobilize on the drop of a hat and not get beat up by the cops because they’re not on the sidewalk or they’re using a megaphone — normal characteristics of protest the Adams admin strangled to death. Makes a massive difference. An overnight 180.

⚠️ Confirmed: Live metrics show #Iran is now in the midst of a nationwide internet blackout; the incident follows a series of escalating digital censorship measures targeting protests across the country and hinders the public's right to communicate at a critical moment 📉

i know we're all busy but i just overheard a plumber say "parlez-vous français ? non ? you motherfuckers don't even speak french, do you" to a pair of french bulldogs

I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement. Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.

Just days into 2026, the killing of 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has sparked protests around the US. If you’re planning to protest, here’s how to safeguard your digital security.

SCOOP: 404 Media has obtained material that explains how Tangles and Webloc, two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. One can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer.

#OtD 8 Jan 1811 maybe biggest uprising of enslaved people in US history took place on Louisiana coast. 100s of enslaved people attacked their masters and marched towards New Orleans burning plantations & fighting local militia until more troops arrived shop.workingclasshistory.com/collections/...

A Black man named Keith Porter was shot and killed by an ICE officer on New Year’s Eve. Marimar Martinez was shot five times by an ICE officer in Chicago who went on to brag about leaving seven holes in her body. This is not new but it is expanding.

The charade of imperial politics gets less sophisticated every day. "We call on all parties to show restraint" worked as a deceptive Canadian statement while it quietly supported a coup in Honduras in 2009. It fails miserably in 2026 when the pedo-in-chief bombs Caracas and kidnaps a president.
