The United States is a rogue state and the international community needs to rein it in before it’s too late. It should feel what it’s like to be on the receiving end of the pressure it typically applies to other countries.

The attack on DEI shows why liberals should stop arguing about "strategic" use of language forever. DEI stands for three uncontroversial virtues that most every American accepts, and the right still turned it into a vile slur. It doesn't matter what you say - they will poison it because YOU said it.

Dear reporters and editors: calling Canada’s PM “governor” is not a “nickname” it is a criminal provocation under international law.

Paradoxically, we have an extraordinary opportunity right now to show not tell that government - and by that I mean the actual people who watch over our roads/airports/food/water/air/products/public health etc - is essential to our lives. The regime is not "the government."

2025 is a clarifying year. For better and worse (usually much worse) we are seeing the world as it really is.

Notable: when I ask an LLM about Trump's current threats to Canada and Gaza, it initially declines to answer because it considers what I'm asking it to be too outrageous. ChatGPT simply cannot comprehend the current moment off training data.

Donald Trump, an unapologetic felon and terrorist, who openly seeks the annihilation of Canada as an independent nation, should not be permitted entry into our country.

Canada needs to GTFO of the Five Eyes agreement ASAP. The US-Russia-Israel crimes alliance that’s emerging demands we rethink all of these arrangements that now potentially endanger Canadians.

Over 40,000 people killed on our roads every year. Tens of millions of lives upended due to road violence. And you're wondering why I'm screaming at you as you make an illegal right on red, violating the crossing signal I've waited 3 minutes for, while staring at your phone? #RoadSafety

the possessive grammatical error is not the most horrifying part of this but it’s still galling and it reminds us that these trumpist goons are moronically dangerous.

One of my best friends is from a sleepy, wealthy small town in the south-west of Germany. He said, so many of my parents’ neighbours are rich and bored, with little to complain about, and they’ve radicalised themselves at dinner parties and online. In their aimlessness, they’ve bonded over hate.

Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years as a result of a deliberate strategy. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people. Good trade.

It’s such a gift to be part of @avilewis.bsky.social’s eco-populist campaign for MP at a time when democracy itself is in great peril. The forces of greed and corruption thrive with us in isolation—community is how we fight back. 🧡

People shocked by this statement are likening it to one made by fascist dictators. It's worse: this is the self-justfication used by terrorists everywhere

What's incredible is how there are thousands - tens of thousands - of stories like this, a genuine national crisis akin to a foreign invasion, and our elite press is so bubbled, so insular, that they can only cover it by writing "Strong leaders flex governing muscles" 700 times over. Pathetic.

a clarifying point here: when “Orwellian” is used by the right, they’re attacking the expansion of language. when it’s used by the left, we’re attacking the annihilation of language. it is not the same.
