There are only three political positions in America today 1) I like the fascism 2) I'll acquiesce to the fascism (reasons for this one vary: cowardice, access, denial, misguidedly thinking that acquiescence is savvy, etc) 3) I oppose the fascism The rest is details

US: arbitrarily detains 55 Canadians in a few months Canada: 🤷‍♀️ www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

They're detaining our citizens, threatening our sovereignty and attacking our economy with tarrifs, but our political & military leadership want us to buy more weapons from them?

The Supreme Court is corrupt

A 49 year old Canadian has died while in ICE custody.

The cool thing about a leftist getting close to winning an election is that you finally get to hear from people like Obama and Clinton when they invariably show up to denounce them

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

What happened in Minnesota is a direct consequence of the violent way that Trump talks about his political opponents.

BREAKING: US Senator Alex Padilla attacked by Kristi Noem’s Goons

So, per the DHS Secretary, the Trump Regime has deployed troops to Los Angeles to overthrow the duly elected government of Los Angeles and of the State of California. bsky.app/profile/just...

CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @andertoon.bsky.social )

I am in downtown Los Angeles right now and it is completely surreal to hear that Trump is sending Marines here. We are listening to mariachi music. People have dogs. There are teenagers here. It is utterly and completely peaceful. Please tell your friends.

South Park residents of San Diego, California, confront Trump’s ICE agents after they stormed a local Italian restaurant to detain staff. This is how fascism is resisted. Courageous citizens standing their ground against regime thugs sent to intimidate them. More of this, America!

The NYT is a conservative newspaper on par with Fox News. They just couch it behind a veneer of professionalism.

The US is a deeply sick country. www.news.com.au/travel/trave...

This would be an obvious act of ethnic cleansing under international law.

When Germany tells you that "rightwing extremism needs to be stopped," you should listen.

The lesson here: it is so much easier to destroy things than to do maintenance, much less build. So be careful who you elect.

I’m sorry, but I simply need to see more evidence before I’m willing to call the hypernationalist administration that is planning military parades in the capital & blames all the country’s problems on ethnic others & now promises to make lists of people w/ developmental differences “fascist.”

high-profile transphobes feeling sad because despite getting what they wanted, none of their ex-friends are queuing up to apologise

Whole lotta "He Is Risen" from people who voted for a tyrant who ABSOLUTELY would have sent Jesus to a prison in El Salvador without due process. SEND TWEET.

The American tourism industry is going to get absolutely smoked

The post below pushing back against minimizing the negative impact of UK anti-trans rulings got me my first Bluesky block. #BadgeOfHonour

Seems like a good day to remind everyone that Auschwitz — a complex of over 40 concentration and extermination camps — was not located in Nazi Germany either.

These people just want slavery back. I get it, I know libs/Democrats won't ever say this but it's the actual truth and it's getting tiresome that we have to step around it. They want to literally own people, control them, force them to do whatever they want. That is what slavery is

Israel is meddling with the Canadian federal election.

NHL refereeing isn't biased against the X - it's just incompetent WAY more often then it should be

Toronto is the only team in Canada that isn't allowed to have a cheery Sportsnet broadcast, because they can't figure out that the solution to the "Leafs bias!!" complaints is a) talk less about TOR in non-TOR games and b) ignore everyone still mad after A. Instead they get Better Know Your Opponent

They have and are literally doing things in every box. This isn't just journalistic failure by the NYT, it is disinformation.
