Very cool that @policyalternatives.ca is tuned in to tech issues and published Cory Doctorow’s “position paper” from @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy

Capitalism has been choking us while fucking us since before The Economist was founded in 1843, but this is what they warn us about. I don’t recall reading about this in Smith or Ricardo. A slow news day in bourgeois economics.

In order to put an end to the brutal conflict ravaging our two countries, the Lamar-Drake Beef, I hereby declare Canada's immediate and unconditional surrender (of Drake, to Kendrick Lamar. Do with him as you wish, Mr. Lamar, but have mercy on our people.) 🏳️

But will he ex-communicate him?

There are limits to everything. The explosion of patriotic fervour, the renewal of interest in national independence, economic self-sufficiency, and coast-to-coast solidarity across Canada should in no way whatsoever be construed as endorsement or support for Drake.

Looks like bargaining in Alberta isn't going the way that the government wants it to go? What a wild attack on a national union for daring to have members in other provinces and a national HQ in Ottawa. www.alberta.ca/release.cfm?...

The United States has declared economic war on some of its closest allies and Silicon Valley is itching to use the power of the state to defend its interests at all costs. It’s time for an alliance not just to combat US belligerence, but to build a different vision for tech.

A certain leader of Germany promised a Volkswagen to all citizens of the Reich. When Canada is the 51st state, Panama and Greenland are occupied, who will get free a Tesla? “Real” Americans only, or recently incorporated subjects of US Lebensraum as well? Would that be #DEI ?
