I'm hoping that we do not have a snap election. But if we do, and the NDP can make up support and the Liberals get another minority, maybe the NDP can provide conditional support, again, to get progressive programs passed.

Poilievre knows that his supporters are racist, extremely homophobic and anti-science. He likes that. The fringe is extremely committed to him. If he's elected, he will attack human rights like never before, disenfranchise people and steal as much tax money as possible for rich industries.

Think about it. We have had so many racist politicians, but Poilievre represents a complete and modern embrace of racism. He also claims to be an evangelist, which is utter bullshit. He's Christian in the sense that he'll give taxpayer money to conservative Christians for votes.

Again, if we had a functioning media we would know why he is unable to get his security clearance. He has likely been consorting with IDU governments and worse. The man praises Israel to the sky while condemning Canada. He's sketchy as fuck. He's also depending on racism to get elected.

Poilievre has been angling his entire life to be PM. And he's been an utter piece of shit human being from the beginning. He's smarmy, chronically dishonest and untroubled that his existence makes the citizens' lives worse. He obviously wants power. Likely to break things. To ruin lives.

I'll support the NDP financially, because they really need to get their message out there. There are endless conservative influencers and bots churning our constant mendacity for Poilievre. People need to know that Poilievre will fuck them over without hesitation.

I'm extremely glad that Poilievre lost, but damn Carney has been a disappointment. I hope the NDP chooses a strong candidate who can speak to economic disparity and the prudence of helping the less fortunate, because it's insane that the CPC has captured so many of the working class.

They are building data centers for which they know they do not have sufficient water or power. They are a nation that has, for over a century, take what they need by force.

ICE is massively stockpiling weapons. Which are for using kn US citizens.

As Canadians, we must be ready for people to be rightfully fleeing America. We must be ready for them to attack us. People don't know how bad the lack of water resources are for large sections of the US.

ICE’s spending on weaponry has soared more than 700 percent this year

The $71.5 million spent so far has paid for guns and armor, chemical munitions, “guided missile warheads," and "explosive components.”

He thinks that blatantly being Trump will be his hail Mary. Except Poilievre is loathsome. Trump inspires cultish devotion. Weird incels love Poilievre. Funny that..."

Poilievre is very typical of that party, unfortunately. The extremists gave taken over. Anti-vaxxer evangelicals who are essentially Republicans and have no allegiance to the country or their fellow citizens. 50%of them love Trump. Imagine how delusional they must be ffs

If you have a definitive, contrarian opinion about vaccines, but are literally unable to read a medical paper, you're a complete idiot. If there was some guarantee that preventable diseases would kill only you, and not your kids or others, I'd say that you should go for it. Embrace the measles.

There is no moral or legal norm that they intend to uphold. They are blatant about this. And they are getting away with it.

It's not just our feckless media. It's the hard truth a large segment of the electorate are shitheads who vote based on ignorance and hate.

Watching Danielle Smith's brazen corruption in Alberta shows that Canadian media and justice systems are not capable of facing the assaults they are going to increasingly face. She, and so many of her party, should be incarcerated. At the very least, she should be too toxic to be electable.

If it doesn't end up hurting them, MAGA won't learn. Preventable diseases and sepsis are the great educator.

Stillwater Oklahoma likes to cover for rapists apparently. Read the horrific story of Jesse Mack Butler, who is a violent rapist and doesn't have to have a punishment for his crimes.

I'm playing The Hex, a Daniel Mullins game (the developer of the classic Pony Island). So far it is fantastic and very, very difficult to put down. This man is a master of using computer artifacts to create subversive horror.

Can't. Stop. Playing.

He's such a liar. Every father's day he cleans up the sweat socks from beneath his bed and has brunch with them.

Most Canadian media know this and don't report on it. Bell doesn't give a shit if you're wildly racist so long as you generate revenue for them. The Star isn't bad, but it's nit great.

Banning news from Facebook has been a disaster, because it's nothing but bullshit now.

He opposes TFW not for economic reasons, but because it signals yo his base that he will vilify ethnic communities as well. And all those far-right racists produce a shit ton of online content. The CPC has an army of reactionary messengers on Facebook, X, TikTok... anywhere low information voters

A few years ago, Poilievre was pushing hard to build support with conservative ethnic communities. Then he realized how racist his supporters were becoming. Did he oppose the racism? Hell no. He calculated that dog whistling to racists would be solid support. And it is.

We have utterly lost Canadian conservatives. They're wildly racist, sexist and homophobic and astoundingly misinformed. Their thought leaders lie without hesitation.

Poilievre knows how racist and corrupt his base has become. He depends on it. They are predictable, rabid support.

Surveys show that Israel has, rightly, lost civilian support. But, because of the decades-long corruption by which Israel has built support, British, American and Canadian press will continue to lie and governments will continue to support Israel. They all know that they're lying. They don't care.

Citizen Michael @citizenmichael.bsky.social · 3d

The western press that credulously covers Netanyahu and IDF statements KNOW THAT THEY ARE BEING LIED TO. They don't care. They knew that Israel would be breaking the "ceasefire" right from the beginning. Every middle of the road source of American news is fine with this.
