As someone that never believed, the tailing point below was something I had to learn. People didn't believe I don't. You're just lapsed or arguing with a deity. Now many see atheism as an -ism or a belief but it is an a-. The a- is for not. Humanism is an -ism but, atheism is a just nope to theism.

"Evil must be opposed!" Vedek Yassim (DS9: S6E2 Rocks & Shoals) #GeneralStrike Doing actual nothing is a surprisingly powerful weapon. Do no work, pay no taxes or bills, the regime will fall. Deny the regime a target and resources at the same time. Channel your time & $$$ to community supports.

In the US a dude kneeling during the anthem at a football game to protest police brutality got more outrage and consequences than a political party embracing full on white supremacy and Gestapo tactics. Reason 2,613 to avoid Trumpistan and #BuyCanadian

Just a thought.......

Austerity is not a Canadian value.

There is a reason most "taxpayer" groups only use data from 1974 and forward. They don't want you to know that 50% to 96% top tax rates were normal for decades and the main engine of progress. Don't complain about the taxes, complain about wages being too low, union busting or lack of basic income.

Money and religion are manifestations of our imagination. People give them power and my neurodivergent brain doesn't understand it. We know better. We have known better for thousands of years. "Teach him what has been said in the past... ... for there is none born wise." - Phahhotpe ~2500BCE

Every time you read something, replace "billionaire" with "economic terrorist" and notice how the context flips.

Every community in the US should establish a Committee for Public Safety for civilian administration and begin a #GeneralStrike.

And meanwhile the sound of crickets from western leaders over Israel's crimes against humanity in Gaza. Pretending that there isn't a genocide makes you complicit in the genocide. Here is my piece on how to join the grandmother's resistance to genocide. charlieangus.substack.com/p/grandmothe...

The biggest issues for 🇨🇦 are wealth inequality and climate change. Yet, O&G, mining companies and billionaires get everything they want from our federal and provincial governments while millions of Canadians remain trapped in legislated poverty.

Happy #SocialistSunday! Americans are welcome to join the boycott of America too. If you want to piss off Trump, #BuyCanadian. If you want to really fight fascism, use boycotts and a #GeneralStrike. Stay strong in the struggle. Solidarity & love, has defeated hate many times.

To alleviate any confusion for media... There is no such thing as "deporting" to 3rd countries. It is State sponsored human trafficking.

Watching the Democratic Party establishment back the most corrupt horse in the NY Mayor primary instead of supporting any of the capable progressives shows why Americans holding out for midterms or 2028 are fooling themselves. Americans need a general strike to change course not a corporate duopoly.

Canada to welcome the 2026 World Humanist Congress in Ottawa.

Netanyahu has suckered the United States into a dangerous war with Iran. It is all about distracting us from the death camp that is Gaza. Israel is committing mass crimes against humanity. The world has gone along for the ride and now we are seeing the dangerous results of unchecked criminality.

It is easier to resist at the beginning than at the end. - Leonardo da Vinci (1508 - The Notebooks) The mad mob does not ask how it could be better, only that it be different. And when it then becomes worse, it must change again. - Martin Luther (1526) Happy #SocialistSunday!

Nothing says Conservative leadership like being a millionaire landlord squatting in public housing. The perfect blend of hypocrisy and arrogance.

If nukes are too dangerous for Iran to have, aren't they also too dangerous for Israel France, North Korea, the United Kingdom. India, Pakistan, China and the United States? Shouldn't Türkiye, Germany, Italy, Belgium and the Netherlands stop hosting nukes for others? Bread Not Bombs

If Conservatives had tabled the exact same Bill C-2, Bill C-4 and Bill C-5 would the concerns of indigenous leaders, environmentalists, policy analysts, privacy experts, opposition and backbench MPs been heeded? Are Canadians truly comfortable with every future government having more police powers?

Notice how Carney's C-5 legislation is celebrated by O&G and many conservatives but indigenous leaders, progressives, environmentalist and some Liberal MPs are raising the alarm? Basic Income has been recommended as policy since 1971 in Canada but governments are focused O&G/Mining company profits.

It's Wednesday. Bread Not Bombs

Fundamentalists will do anything to preserve their bubble against reality. That is why groups too extreme for the religious wars of 16th & 17th century Europe crossed an ocean to make an "evangelical" fiefdom in what is now the US. Understanding history helps understand the present.

This National Public Service Week, we say thank you to the federal public service workers who deliver for Canada every day. We appreciate all that you do to keep Canada running. psacunion.ca/national-pub...

Economic turmoil is not justification to trample on Treaty rights and obligations in Canada (or anywhere). Tell our MLA/MNA/MPP/MP/Senators that we are all Treaty Peoples. Many seem to need a reminder. Reconciliation means no returning to colonialism by government or economy. #G7 #cdnpoli

The cost to end hunger for the entire world is €50b (€42b in food production, €8b logistics) or $78.55b CAD. Global military spending was €2.8t for 2024, or $4.4t CAD. That means if just 1.8% of military spending were redirected, nobody would face starvation. Time for more #BreadNotBombs.

Good morning from Canada. Bread Not Bombs

Happy #SocialistSunday! Bread Not Bombs!

Imagine if all the #NoKings protesters didn't show up to work on Monday. That's how you start a general strike. Protests are good but taking the fuel from fascism is better.

Sample motion language. Whereas Donald Trump and accomplice(s) have publicly confessed to election interference; and, Whereas the administration is in breach of domestic and international law. Therefore be it resolved that Kamala Harris be sworn in and recognized as President of the United States.

Bread Not Bombs

Happy Obama Day to the #resistance in 🇺🇸 from 🇨🇦!

Slavery never ended, it was just privatized.

The cost to alleviate hunger for the planet is about €50b. (€42b food production, €8b logistics.) Global military spending for 2024, was approximately €2,800b. Bread not bombs.

Whole thread on point and all the more reason for a general strike as a response. Provide no target and deny fuel for the regime at same time. A Friday the 13th, or Obama Day general strike would entertain the rest of the world.

We can have markets & property in a socialist system. It is just shifting focus to the value of a thing to society rather than as capital for private interest. Propaganda has made anything "socialist" seem terrible but police, roads, healthcare, even trade itself are all socialist at root.

Q for liberals... Are you happy with the speed that your party has become Red Tory? Exempting political parties from obeying privacy laws retroactively hidden in C-4. Inviting autocrats to G7. Support for private capital over public ownership. Saying Treaty rights aren't really rights. Any concerns?

GenX trivia & AI meet. How long is the conversation in the song Sylvia's Mother? AI was certain it was 3 minutes by reading the chorus lyric. It didn't factor the repeats or initial interval. For $1.20 9 mins are added to call after 1st operator interrupt making it 10+min. Context is everything.

Proud Boys are a designated terrorist group in Canada. How come none of this "security cooperation" talk involves drone strikes of their terrorist training compounds? Sanctions on members/donors? Arrests? #cdnpoli

History books on US presidency for 2025 shall henceforth be called: A Tale of Two Narcissists.

Hello America, General Strike ASAP. Send notices to your banks and employers that until the regime collapses you won't work or pay down debt. Global solidarity will raise the money to support a US strike fund if you show courage and dedication to real action now. FYI... GeneralStrikeUS.com

An aspect of the disability tax often neglected is the impact on time. We operate in the time zones that our disabilities allow functionality. We don't get to chose the time. It is not the same time from day to day. It is not for the same length of time. It may take 2 days to recover from 2h.

Conservative always starts with a con. This is why cons lead Conservative parties

Isn't the abstract power of language grand? For example, if I say President Taco of the United Shitholes, everyone knows exactly who I mean.

Gentle reminder that "stabilize the housing industry" means letting REITs and brokers continue to swap assets to inflate property values so they can make more money.

Better "nation building" projects for Canada than resource exploitation. 1. Advancing Reconciliation 2. Universal Basic Income 3. National Disability Insurance 4. Public Inquiry on white supremacy in policing & government 5. Public Transit (planes, trains & automobiles) What are your top 5?

Manitoba is on fire... PM & Premiers response: 🇨🇦 should fast track all the projects that exacerbate climate change. #cdnpoli Environmental policy isn't about politics, it is about survival. Oppose #Bill5 and every effort like it.
