If you're wondering about the vibe in Canada right now, I just got served this ad for a brewhouse that is just a portrait of the White House being burned down. No text, just a bigass picture of the White House burning and a link directly to their menu lolol

this is all a dominance play, but the problem they're running into is that it's so hamhanded and insulting that they're making it functionally impossible to actually capitulate even right wing populists in other countries are going to have to get on the Fuck America train out of political necessity

We’re 30+ years in to the Fox News era, Chuck et al should have wondered why there’s no GOP senator who consults with an imaginary Democratic family or why there are zero calls from the media for Republicans to have “viewpoint diversity” and stopped trying to kick the football Lucy keeps teeing up

When coordinating demos in the 2010s, we focused on getting people to not panic and run away from the cops. When one person ran, two would run, etc., making everyone less safe, but if people didn't immediately flee, the cops had to back off and couldn't handle the crowd. The lesson is generalizable.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

we need to organize where we already are embedded in community in some way. talk in small groups, find out what smaller battles matter to people, and organize to win those. this meets real material needs AND strengthens us for bigger battles, ultimately the battle to wrest power from the fascists.

Of course the main story is Trump’s authoritarianism. But the secondary story is that some university presidents and donors called for this. They went on the news and in front of Congress to claim their students were violent antisemites, funded by Iran, who don’t deserve speech rights
