Simone Biles apology was a surprise. Luckily she made a big enough splash calling out the white supremacist that it doesn't negate its reach. Sad she's the one apologizing, though.

This script might get him elected in Battle River-Crowfoot, but if people were wondering about his future vision of Canada... I'm so exhausted with the outright lies of fascists. globalnews.ca/news/1123449...

So few people with power stood up to the fascists in Germany. So few in fact, that the ones who did became famous. We know about Schindler because he was exceptional. It's time to push our capitalist profiting folk to speak up and stand up. Instead of folding like the greedy cowards they are.

Everyone who sees this should repost it. We are drowning and don't seem to notice, and the loss of an unbiased press is a huge contributor to that.

For every egregious act at the front of the house, what fuckery (much worse) is brewing back stage?

Can't have them exposed to a broader perspective, can we? They might start thinking things like, "hey, these folk are a lot like me!" + "Oh, that's interesting, I want to know more about this!" Not to mention this is entirely driven by ideology based in bigotry. #CdnPoli thetyee.ca/News/2025/06...

Two words I'm seeing a lot: "AI said..." Shit.

Let's make sedition punishable again! At least remove their tax free status. But really, just arrest these traitorous shitheads. thetyee.ca/Analysis/202...

All our leaders need to start doing this with the media. We've seen it from Carney, and now Kinew. Honestly, we need to do the same thing with journalism, as provinces do with doctors and teachers. We need a journalistic standards entity that holds them to integrity, truth + professional discipline!
