I’d say, rather, Les Miserable is chiefly about the capacity for redemption, the challenges faced by the poor and marginalized in the face of tyranny. A similar theme to Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment, and the psychological impact of poverty and social inequality. Drumpf would never ‘get it’.

My dad often used a couple of expressions that come to mind for this MAGAt head - he should go ‘pound salt’ or ‘p*ss up a rope’! #ElbowsUp

‘twould be even worse should the CONservative PoiLIEvre ever become PM, since he and his handlers openly silenced the media, limiting the number of questions asked from selected journalists, vetting the questions first (on camera calling a real reporter a ‘protester’ for simply asking a question)!

Excellent! “Common People” by Pulp remains one of my favourite songs critical of the attitude of the wealthy, or ‘ruling class’.

Love the message from the mayor of Langley they should “…look to Montana and maybe Oregon for those people to come up and support them, and not Canada.” Indeed, they should not have elected a lying isolationist, racist, misogynist felon. #ElbowsUp

Aside from the US Administration’s apparent new “DEI” - only hire Demonstrably Egregious Idiots, it is a clear sign of the neo-con fascism to which that government executive branch is aspiring! Quell, silence, and attempt to eliminate the intelligentsia.

In this age of performative cruelty finding what manner of positive media that can engage and speak to youth about goodness may help? Years ago this, for instance, spoke to me www.poetryfoundation.org/poems/46473/...

Well it is the Gulf of Mexico for about 98% of the world’s population (the USA has about 4.2% of the world population and I would imagine half of them still call it the Gulf of Mexico!)

There is an inverse relationship between education and favourability of Pierre Poilievre. Favourability of Pierre Poilievre decreases with education. The less educated you are, the more likely you are to have a positive opinion of the Conservative Party leader. cultmtl.com/2025/04/favo... #cdnpoli

My biggest concern is that a lot of Canadians didn’t see through the right wing fascist Maple Maga double-speak that PoiLIEevre and his media censoring, security-clearance-ignoring REFORM Conservatives rely upon to give Canada a majority government like our Australian cousins did!

Danielle Smith is Canada's pre-eminent political arsonist. Even more than Pierre Poilievre. While Canadians rally together she is gleefully burning the MAGA MAPLE big tent to the ground. Read my latest on how MAGA MAPLE crowd are turning on each other. charlieangus.substack.com/p/maga-maple...

Foreign interference in our democracy is usually something planned from the outside. But in Canada's case the quislings trying to undermine our nation are working from the Conservative MAGA MAPLE team. Please read my latest: charlieangus.substack.com/p/poilievre-...

That’s a “special” kinda stupid right there. The kind you’d expect if your IQ really was 73 and you’d hired unqualified sycophants for their ability to kiss ass as opposed to their intelligence…..
