Yeah, it's the people describing him as the father of an autistic child who are "sensationalizing" this, and not the people who are insisting this guy with no criminal record is actually some sort of Super Terrorist Voltron who's worse than Osama bin Laden, MS-13 and Pablo Escobar combined.

In the melee, you may have missed it: Rubio is telling State employees to snitch on colleagues for "anti-Christian bias." Said "bias" is defined as not agreeing that right-wing Christians are superior and get to dictate the choices of everyone else. www.salon.com/2025/04/15/m...

“She started to realize that while the new right’s racism and misogyny were often delivered with an ironic smirk, it was no joke.” We’re going to see so many people “start to realize” it’s going to make your head spin.

www.cbc.ca/news/politic... this from @aaronwherry.bsky.social is actually a good, fact-based look at the forces influencing the Canadian election and how recent moves by leaders fit into their strategies. This is GOOD election journalism.

“I think this is the first time a Cdn poli has crossed that line to officially say they want to interfere to control research topics. It could be a very terrible time for us.” Sound familiar? In Cdn election, Poilievre vows to end ’woke ideology’ in science funding www.science.org/content/arti...

In case you were still wondering if Pierre Poilievre is MAGA/Trump, read this. This is an EXTREMELY Trump thing to do. And he’s getting global attention for saying he’s going to do it. This is worse than the science-muzzling Harper did. And Poilievre will go a LOT farther than this. #VOTE

So Social Security will now be using X to communicate going forward? This will be no problem at all, as the elderly are known to be very tech savvy, and a social media company created to keep you busy on the toilet should absolutely have all of our social security information. What could go wrong?

What he did in Samoa was a test run of what he is now doing to us. He wants to cull the herd and let the elderly, disabled and "weak" die off. Caroline Kennedy warned us about this sadistic freak but the GOP sees nothing wrong with letting "inferior people" die off.

The comment below is in the context of Quebec separatists voting for the Liberal candidate in this election, as opposed to oil and gas separatists in western Canada who will vote their profit margin. I lift this up bc there is something big here about libertarianism (a for-hire ideology) vs liberty
