Calling the Gestapo “the Gestapo” is causing the Gestapo to act like the Gestapo.

We need to talk about the rise of "smol bean fascism" where you have all the guns and the immunity but the really scary people are the ones with whistles and phone cameras and they're giving you generational trauma and ptsd by filming you killing people for no reason

It really takes effort on the part of Vice President Vance to issue a Holocaust Remembrance Day statement like this without any mention of six million Jews lost, the Jewish people, Nazis, or the issue of antisemitism.

Extraordinary how many responses from elected leaders are still so mealy-mouthed and half-assed. This isn't going to stop with reforms or assurances or more oversight. It's abolition, dissolution, prosecution, conviction. May as well get yourself on the record as an early voice.

‘Brazen’ political influence of rich laid bare as wealth of billionaires reaches $18.3tn, says Oxfam
Governments opting for oligarchy while brutally repressing protests over austerity and lack of jobs, charity report says The world saw a record number of billionaires created last year, with a collective wealth of $18.3tn (£13.7tn), while global efforts stalled in the fight against poverty and hunger. Oxfam’s annual survey of global inequality has revealed that the number of billionaires surpassed 3,000 for the first time during 2025. Since 2020, their collective wealth grew by 81%, or $8.2tn, which the charity claims would be enough to eradicate global poverty 26 times over. Continue reading...

This story is just sickening. This wealthy Albertan, Sam Mraiche, had a lawyer that hired podcasters to get the public onside with him against the whistleblowers. He seems to have gotten many Alberta government contracts because of political corruption. He’s screwed over Albertans.

Oligarchy (noun): A government of and by a few at the top, who exercise power for their own benefit. Their power and wealth increase as they make laws that favor themselves, manipulate financial markets, and create monopolies that put more wealth into their pockets.

The people who most loudly complain "Why can't these immigrants just stay in their country???" are the same ones who most loudly celebrate American military and CIA interventionism in these countries to overthrow their governments. And they lack the self awareness to understand their own hypocrisy.

The weak response from Can, EU and UN to Trump's flagrant crimes in Venezuela is striking. It exposes that much of the world has been cowed. Most notable exception: the Latin American left. That is why the Trump Admin has gone to enormous lengths to defeat the left across the continent. 1/3

The US has attacked a country, kidnapped its head of state, and is seizing its oil. Trump has invoked the Monroe Doctrine. This is a moment for Canada to stand up: condemn this act of imperialism. Reject impunity and the politics of brute force.

Despite threats, billionaires don't leave the largest population centers, because it's where there is the most money to be had from the collective value generated by human beings, and despite what they insist, they don't generate wealth; they collect it.
