I wish we lived in a world where Bernie had not with 100 percent name recognition and loads of money not eaten shit in a mostly-fair fight in 2020 but we do not.

This is 100% like something you'd see in our annual Information Assurance training -- see as in you fail if you say you would reply to this email.

sirota sephiroth-posted "we are going to go all the way to the convention with a plurality after the moderates fail to consolidate then dare them to blow up the coalition by not making me the candidate" and immediately thereafter the moderates consolidated. this is compared to murder

....wonder if you could write something in the email to get the LLM bot to do prompt injection

So if you get that OPM email, my only advice is to recognize (1) it is asking you to give them an excuse to fire you (2) it will be processed by an LLM. If you want to leave, good luck to you, thank you for your service. If not, reply in a way designed to not give their LLM bot those free excuses.

Trump is talking about annexation and Poilievre is talking about killing the "woke agenda", truly showing that he has his finger on the pulse

The left needs to work with liberals because a) the left is mostly liberals even if people pretend they aren't and b) the number of people who are committed to leftist politics is absolutely tiny.

I suspect we're about to see a concerted effort by Bannon to normalize the Nazi salute as a way of further radicalizing his base outflanking Musk. (www.rawstory.com/steve-bannon...)

A thing to keep in your back pocket if Poilievre and the Conservatives start trying to distance themselves from their ideological bedfellows in the United States: Just this past November Poilievre was fundraising off an Alex-Jones-level conspiracy theory about people being forced to eat bugs.

so the most recent Tory convention had them add anti-trans planks to the platform but the Federal Tories can't really do much as a result of the fact that the vast majority of Canadian (regulatory) power lies with provinces when it comes to healthcare + other hot button issues

the thing about NatCon policy is that it's primarily driven by how religious America is in the South. the vast majority of Canadian voters don't really want PP's NatCon-lite agenda

submitted 2 hours ago • 5 comments

Conservatives took pains to brand themselves as the patriotic "Canada First" party. American threats were seen as a huge boon for Poilievre but he is snatching defeat from the jaws of victory because his brain is just too cooked to ease off Trumpist rhetoric
