Imagine giving up power to do things for the chance you can get power to do things, because the exercise of that power as one of the highest paid civil servants in the province forces you to stay up past bedtime some days Now imagine trying to sell that to the voters you have disappointed for years

We are living in their world, though. Fascism decoupled from the state during the war, and went international. The world went to war against communism. The offramp to a better world was annihilated. Neoliberalism was the project that resulted from years of eroding the left, and we lost, big.

scary strategies@stablestrategys.bsky.social

never forget that. if they were terrifying and intelligent we’d be living in their world. the truth is that the correct depiction of a nazi is a guy slipping on a banana peel and comically sliding around trying to regain his balance before falling down and shitting his pants on the way

to the OPs point, however, this has had nothing to do with their superior qualities, except organizing and access to power. Those things, developed over decades, paid dividends. We are living in the world where fascism won. Liberalism was a hollowed out shell, and fascism possessed it like a demon

At least $50 billion for another pipeline. $82 billion in new military spending in 5 years. $300 billion in corporate welfare and mega incentives at an investment summit. But the cupboard is bare for Parks Canada.

2,671 PSAC members at Parks Canada received notice this week that their positions may be cut. These cuts put our environment, natural and cultural heritage, parks, and national historic sites at risk. psacunion.ca/psac-raises-...

@frederickbralorne 📎@frederickbralorne.bsky.social

No we do not. Conservatives are traitors. These liberals are not traitors. Current liberals are right centre and I would prefer left centre but it is what it is. Perhaps one day we'll achieve democratic socialism. I, perhaps like you, hope for that day. Now is not the time however.

If we didn't have FPTP, BC would pretty much never have to worry about a conservative majority. It would be unlikely to ever happen. But the BC NDP knows that fear of the right is pretty much the only thing that can get them majorities, so they keep FPTP. Truly a disgusting and selfish party.

Yeah It's honestly great

Seems to me that Hegseth isn’t a disastrous clown destroying the U.S. Military, he’s a disastrous clown exposing how the U.S. Military has for decades been a hollow, bloated boondoggle - pork barrel spending that lined pockets and provided zero modern combat readiness.

Man, Hegseth's Department of War is even more buffoonish than everything else. Kinda amazed how the US military didn't just have some basic war plans they could activate. Their lack of preparedness is astonishing. meidasnews.com/news/so-much...

Airbnb went from a cheap way to crash in a spare bedroom or rent a vacation house for a weekend and turned into "what if hotels openly hated you and acted like they were doing you a favor by letting you give them hundreds of dollars to stay there, and also it's more expensive"

Caroline Haskins@carolinehaskins.bsky.social

Airbnb is banning its hosts from making guests do things like “stripping the bed, taking trash offsite, or washing and putting away dishes.” The hosts....are not taking it well: www.wired.com/story/airbnb...

Approximately two-thirds (66%) of white Americans supported racially segregated schools in the 1940s. By 1995, This figure reversed, with 96% white respondents agreeing that white and Black children should attend the same schools. It's quite obvious that we have to take actions first and care...

“It makes no sense,” Benjamin told the Examiner. “It’s $10 billion for 215 jobs. That’s $46.5 million per job. That’s insane! Give me $46.5 million and I will employ a lot more than one person with that.”

Uncontroversial Alberta opinion: I personally think the decisions to go back to paper ballots, hold this referendum, and have 10 questions on it, such that they’re still counting votes two days later, were all the incorrect decisions.

Think about it. In order to fight the greatest enemy of our time (lol I know) you must: - pay your internet bill - defend the status quo - assume all counterpoints are an insidious plot -attend a state scantioned demonstration. - donate to US Gov associated groups - argue with robots - go to work

Ian@ianagp.bsky.social

I cannot imagine a more effective counter-dissident strategy than convincing them there's a secret army of unprovable Russian trolls that they must stay indoors and fight on the internet. Machiavelli would blush with that level of game.

It's incredible how little information the Cdn public is given in the wake of any kind of incident. Whenever I post about this on other social media, usually having to do with RCMP releases, I get a flood of scolds telling me to be patient, & that this is The Way Then the info *never* comes out 👍

Glad to see this post go somewhat viral, not enough people know about how non-transparent Canadian institutions are. This is a good place to learn more, from the Globe and Mail, though it doesn't include the stonewalling that often come from comms agencies www.secretcanada.com

The movement has no stated goals, no stated purpose, other than getting together and saying fuck Trump. You think that's important, but that's because you're stupid, and you don't know how power or politics works

Fuck Britain

PBS News@pbsnews.org

British authorities said Tuesday they are sending air support to Saudi Arabia to protect the kingdom against missiles and drones launched by Iran-backed Houthi rebels in neighboring Yemen.

Moreover, it succeeded. I believe that the separation question was simply the most dramatic, and bc of its weight, was declared the reason a referendum was needed. It was the other nine questions that were the critical ones, and Alberta failed in exactly the way it was meant to

Saeed Khan@saeedwkhan.bsky.social

To all those "celebrating" the rejection of the separation vote in AB, understand that that was never the goal. This was a campaign supported by foreign interests to destabilize Canada and promote a racist, white nationalist agenda, and create grievance ammunition to further destabilize us.

The referendums aren't making policy. They're manufacturing consent for the policies she was enacting already.

Emmett Macfarlane 🇨🇦@emmettmacfarlane.com

Of course, if we take the Supreme Court's recent decision in Kanyinda seriously, this would probably be unconstitutional. Referenda are a stupid way to make policy decisions, generally.

Those with power will eagerly discover your limits in order to exploit them. They will put any and all of their efforts out of reach of what you are willing to do If the goal is to win, then you cannot operate with limits in mind. You must be ready to apply pressure wherever they are softest.

Joshua "the Crypt" Keep(er)@jekeep.bsky.social

Some people clearly need to hear this: Every big successful peaceful protest movement of modern history had a violent counterpart. Peaceful protest stopped working the moment the ruling class realized ignoring it wouldn't lead to violent uprising.
