Thanks to North Cowichan councillor Bruce Findlay for raising awareness about the need for safe birth places for Palestinian babies. 🇵🇸

Authors of the blog, “The westward independent” (“powered by COAP”) make narcissistic confessions about their own behaviour.

On Nov 17, North Cowichan displaced ~75 unhoused residents from Lewis Street encampments to a marsh without the promised Ramada shelter open or toilets available. NEW substack collab by me & @pearlysalts.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/jessicap...

Cowichan politicians need to denounce white supremacy and the alt-right disinformation machine that is leading people there.

My response the recent displacement of People living in the Duncan railway corridor.

Dixon’s beliefs are not “political” - they’re hate propaganda and she is a dangerous agent of the far right faction of Vancouver Island, determined to drag down and distract our education system for her own selfish interests. www.jccf.ca/court_cases/...

The Beaverton demands same debate invitation as The Rebel, even though we’re not as big a joke

“When politicians attempt to control the conversation by avoiding public forums or calling out their constituents, our response should be clear: we will not accept a democracy that operates in the shadows or through intimidation.”

Conservatives pretending that all-candidate meetings are too divisive but then Americanizing our democratic process through arranging celebrity-centered public discussions and “local hero” candidates, tho.

The entire Conservative brand is based on a white supremacist legacy: ricochet.media/politics/how...

Perhaps at the next all-candidates meetings we can continue pressing candidates on how they are going to protect all of our community from the toxic masculinity, misogyny and rape culture that stems from the hands of cis men.

Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933. I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

The first Revolve book club meeting was inspiring, empowering and enlightening 🖤 Thank you so much to everyone who attended and contributed to the important conversation about colonialism, white supremacy and the revolutionary action of Assata Shakur. Stay tuned for more book club dates!

The Westward Independent, which is run by Joseph Enslow and Adrienne Richards, appears to have a fake journalist. 6 articles published between 01/30/24 and 02/10/24, some on the same day. “Taylor Wilson” has no internet presence other than the six articles at the WWI.

I had the honour of joining CBC's What On Earth with Dr. Chris Russill recently. We talked all about climate conspiracism and how this is playing out in real time as climate disasters become more frequent. Have a listen!

A library in Alberta was closed afternoon council’s (shady sounding) vote after hosting a GSA.

Great job by Ruben (@rubenbolling.bsky.social).

We also hold space on our blog for community submissions, like this one: www.revolvecowichan.com/revolve-blog... We are unapologetically anti-fascist and we live up to our label of "radical woke activists" 👍. This & more. Hopefully now you know a bit more about Revolve. Oh, and FREE PALESTINE 🇵🇸

All this person did was make me feel bad for Trudeau.

Becoming a professional should require practicing professionalism, not obedience.
