A former OneBC staffer previously participated in a Spaces call with the leaders of white nationalist/"Canadian nationalist" organizations.

They talked about deporting 10 million people and joked about throwing "millions of Punjabis" into the sea. 1/3 thetyee.ca/News/2026/02...

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.

The response to Toronto police corruption shouldn't be a $90 million dollar raise

Tell the mayor and city council to boost city services like recreation, long term care and shelters, not policing

People outside of Canada need to realize Mark Carney has cut thousands of public service jobs and fast tracking neoliberal business and energy sales over Indigenous land and LGBTQ+ rights in the country.

He's paving the way for fascism but getting credit as some brave leader calling out Trump
“Canada needs to stand against the kind of intolerance that's sweeping the world.”

Fascism scholar Jason Stanley tells @mehdirhasan.bsky.social why Canadian PM Mark Carney should have more explicitly decried rising global intolerance in his Davos address.

The "Fwd: Fwd: Fwd:" chainletter scam nature of Bluesky has been dialled up a notch recently and I think it's important that we all just keep saying "that didn't happen", and then when someone replies "woulda been cool if it DID happen" or "bet you're fun at parties" we reply "shut the fuck up"

Much like with Covid, I watch a whole lot of my supposedly progressive friends go blank eyed when I mention that his wife, his kids, and an entire plane crew agreed in depositions that he abused his family. Facts apparently do care about your entertainment.

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books.

She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it.

It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

This is why I moved off Substack to Ghost. The Nazis will migrate to any big platform but when a platform actively promotes them, that is a choice
for the terminally online this is *far* from a revalation and also, i *really* hope that it will push more people to jump to another platform. there are places that will help you migrate your newsletter and don't profit off hate speech.

Reminder that ICE was invented after 9/11 to terrorize people on US soil.

W’s “war on terror” incl mass surveillance, even more racial profiling & aggressive policing & treating immigration as a security issue. Muslims & Brown folk perceived as such can tell you how that went.

Abolish.

I have booked a music rock n roll punk show at Collective Arts in Toronto for Thursday March 5 for my band Anti-Spectacular and I'm looking for other acts to fill out the lineup. Are there any toronto based punk or punkish bands that would be interested? Lemme know in the replies and I'll DM you.

The government is giving a loan to a Crown corporation that should just be a public service that we pay for because it provides an essential task that Canadians depend on.

We don’t provide loans to the health care system or schools; we just pay for them.
