You notice how every time the media talks about Trump it’s as if he has a clean slate? They never bring up that he’s a convicted felon, adulterer, sexual assault offender, thief, stole classified documents, was responsible for millions of Covid deaths, etc. That’s how you know it’s propaganda.

I'm sorry. I cannot process this and refuse to panic about it until five minutes before the threat is real. There are millions of lives at stake and there are also billions of dollars. I am depending on the greed of psychopharmaceutical industry and it has never let me down before.

So Poilievre is tanking in the polls, just wait, more to come. He thought he had it in the bag with his constant negativity. He thought he had it in the bag with an Alex Jones endorsement because he attended an event hosted by residential school deniers and conspiracy theorists. FAFO numb nuts.

I want to emphasize that I am not an easy person to radicalize. It's not really in my nature. If I come across as strident and extreme, it's because I have been watching Elon Musk operate very closely for a decade now, and I am extremely worried that we are already out of formal tools to resist him.
