liberals who are unfamiliar with fox dont understand the way in which the network molds the pov of its viewers. its not just cnn with some occasional conservative takes thrown in. its a daily narrative of how the left is fucking you over and how brave conservatives are fighting for you. DAILY.

damn -- CNN put together a video of Kristi Noem claiming ICE officers are "highly trained and skilled" and "gifted" alongside to a clip of them beating someone nearly to death in Minneapolis

Fascism is here bc we turned our backs on the vulnerable when told pandemic is over when it’s not. Fascists saw how most are OK letting disabled, chronically ill, elderly & kids “fall by the wayside”, showed them they could hurt anyone to take everything. Not too late to turn it around. Solidarity✊😷

It sounds like a Black Mirror episode.

“Coastal First Nations say ‘we will never tolerate' any exemptions to the oil tanker ban in British Columbia” ricochet.media/politics/can... #cdnpoli

Talk about burying the lede! In a new interview with Reuters, Trump floats suspending elections. “When you think of it, we shouldn't even have an election.”

I monitored Nazi terror Telegram channels from 2019 to 2022 or so and it's hard to overstate the degree to which DHS's X account mimics the tone, aesthetic, voice, and language of those cess pits. Whoever is running socials for them has obviously spent a lot of time in that space.

I think Canadians in general are woefully uninformed about the companies in which our pension funds are invested.

How residential school denialism has fuelled Canada’s church-burning panic. Far-right media and politicians have distorted church fires into a national crisis — stoking anti-Indigenous racism and casting unproven acts as “terrorism”. New from Taylor C. Noakes: ricochet.media/indigenous/r...

Not to diminish this, but I think the greatest threat to Canada is that Meta, Google, X and other tech giants exert sufficient control of our information ecosystem while siphoning huge profits out of Canada, and they use their information control to foment opposition to any attempt to rein them in.

This is probably the greatest threat to Canada. That we concede so much to the US to avoid further threats, that we’re effectively a vassal state www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Underpromise, then underdeliver on the underpromise: the Democratic party way.

PEOPLE doing better journalism than the NYT

This is significant. Many folks has chosen to tune out “the news” because it’s too upsetting or they feel overwhelmed or powerless. Injecting it into entertainment and sports forces some to confront it. Democrats want to give ICE more money for training. Better trained secret police!!!

This man is right! Most people especially establishment Democrats and their leadership are in complete denial.

"It is time to put our bodies between the powers of this world and the most vulnerable.”

Canada is just one big money laundering scheme "'The work we do in reconciliation is to empower people, Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike, not to empower the courts,' Eby said while flanked by banners promoting the event’s sponsors, gas companies Enbridge and FortisBC." thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

This is HUGE news for all of mankind and all creation.

ICE agents are, simply put, fucking clowns. Some observations from four days on the ground in Minneapolis. www.garbageday.email/p/we-re-all-...

Read this earnest, respectful call for the United States Congress to grow a damn backbone.

Saw the most extraordinary doc today at TIFF. Our Land, Our Freedom follows the daughter of a freedom fighter in Kenya as she seeks justice and dignity for the aging Mau Mau, many were tortured and killed by the British. The film should be required viewing for every UK student youtu.be/9sQ16s-EGYI

Wonderful

Or ICE?

In light of what happened to Renee Good, I thought it important to reiterate my grandmother's advice.

“The citizens of Greenland are not slaves” FFS

AOC excoriated Vance here. Let’s see how the American public responds to Vance's “we believe young mothers should be shot in the street” political slogan. After this week, that line will forever and always be JD's rallying cry.

The Powderhorn Park area, where the rally is taking place, has long been a cultural/housing hub of Native Americans

Fascism is great for business.

Today's ICE is 1972's The Stanford Experiment stanfordmag.org/contents/the...

The scale of the protests in Iran are absolutely unbelievable. Hard to quantify, but I've seen some speculation that this uprising is more significant than the 2023 protests (themselves the largest challenge to the regime since it came into power in '79.) (Video from @AmirMiresmaeili on Twitter)

"Chief Quisess says he’s offended that his people should be forced to gamble by hitching their fates to these extraction companies when they have rights to the land and their community lacks basic infrastructure from the failed treaty commitments of the past."

This is not a spoof. This is an actual post on the official US State Department account. The US has now officially declared itself to be a militaristic, hegemonic state dedicated to subjugating neighboring nations. The Trump Administration is following in the footsteps of Hitler and Stalin.

At this point, I can’t understand why any international traveller would visit the US Even if you think you’re not at risk, you could get caught in the crossfire of ICE gunning people down in residential streets or have masked gunmen storm your restaurant and haul kitchen staff away as you eat lunch

Chilling to see how quick DHS is to move in and lie about about someone they just killed, who is therefore unable to muster a self defense against smears. And then to have this narrative echoed by the most powerful people on earth.

“It’s easy to fight back” I literally hate these gutless cowards

Renee Nicole Good stopped to film ICE in her neighborhood today and they executed her for it.

Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.

what this should make clear to everyone in this country is that it does not matter who you are, there's no "it could never happen to me" you can be a white woman who drives around with stuffed animals in her car, and they will still kill you in cold blood and call you a domestic terrorist

Canada cannot wait for cooler heads to prevail in the US, because they won't. The US is an imperialist power with territorial ambitions in its near abroad, and must be treated as such.

This is an excellent question:

Remember when Meta took all news and information off of Facebook in Canada? That was policy from Rachel Curran, head of public policy at Meta Canada. Rachel went from the Harper PMO, to Harper's spin/lobby shop, to Meta.

New York Times reporter on the situation in Venezuela

Carney adopting a softer "ethical oil" stance.

Both The New York Times and Washington Post knew about the US raid on Venezuela, but held off publishing to avoid endangering US troops. "At least 80 people in Venezuela, including civilians, were killed in the strikes. I bet they would have liked to know that they were coming."

OUT: Helping you pay for health care. IN: Helping oil companies pay for their infrastructure in a foreign country.

Expansion is one of the requirements of fascism.

In a healthy democracy, there would bipartisan Articles of Impeachment on the floor of the House by tonight But we are neither a healthy democracy nor, I would argue—given the end of our separation of powers and our rule of law—a democracy at all anymore
