As someone who experienced threats and harassment from armed extremists for over a decade, I have empathy for anyone who feels afraid of retaliation for free speech. But at the end of the day, we all must make a choice: back down or double down.

the autistic curse of seeing the iceberg coming, being called hyperbolic and having everyone get mad at you when you point it out, and then watching them be shocked! when we crash into it. who could possibly have seen this coming?! no one predicted it except those people we don’t take seriously

I just saw Sarah Palin did an anti-fascism today, and I just want to say I'm thinking of the brave people of the US over a certain age who are just sobbing into their lattes as they whimper, "Welcome to the resistance, Sarah fucking Palin."

Sorry but I just don't feel comfortable sharing public toilets with transphobes. At any moment they could just demand to have a look at my gennies. The law should protect women's spaces from these creeps.

Project 2025 was the roadmap for DOGE and the destruction of a non-partisan civil service. Conservative insiders are bragging that enacting DOGE NORTH would be even easier in Canada. Trashing the public service is key for the fascist playbook. Please read my latest. substack.com/home/post/p-...

We've got Bill Kristol saying abolish ICE and standing up for trans people, David Brooks quoting the communist manifesto, and Sen. Van Hollen forcing a dictator to give proof of life of a hostage in a death camp. Meanwhile, Dems like Newsom are doing podcasts with fascists. Make it make sense.

True North Centre has platformed Proud Boys and has a reporter who associates with the Goyim Defense League. They should not be treated anywhere close to a serious outlet and it's embaressing for our country that they get to be anywhere close to the Prime Minister.

I think that’s what’s so scary. This is part of how Fascism and Totalitarianism rationalizes its violence. Once they find the control room then the bad people will go away and they can start to build. But the control room doesn’t exist. So they’ll raze everything to the ground.

Today a man who was charged for leaving unconscionable antisemitic threats on my clinic answering machine is being sentenced for his crime. I’ll be in court, looking him square in the eye. Don’t forget that Poilievre brought coffee to these anti-science, Jew-hating thugs in the Ottawa convoy.

The federal leaders survived the French-language debate without major incident — for better or for worse. The same can’t be said for the debate organizers, who absolutely shit the bed in an impressive number of ways. That's why the scrums were a right-wing clown show. Let’s talk about it all:

I do keep thinking about how all the people who took to the pages of Harpers or the NYTimes to talk about how I was a threat to men's due process rights for inviting women to talk to each other are perfectly okay with men being kidnapped without charge and disappeared to foreign concentration camps.

The Trump regime is now using US Attorneys to intimidate academic journals by sending them letters demanding they explain how they ensure ‘viewpoint diversity.’ Journal editors should be public about this and coordinate to refuse to comply with these fascist tactics.

The Conservative attack on science in Canada needs to be highlighted please. With the USA 🇺🇸 trashing it completely the planet will be trashed along with the cons getting in and finishing the job. Canada needs to hold the line in North America by keeping the cons out.

The Debate Commission’s decision to give questions to Rebel Media & other rage farming, disinformation outlets (who focus on attacking progressive politicians & their families as I well know) at expense of credible news organizations is not only absurd, it degrades our democracy.
