Carney is already proving to be much worse than I feared. chiefs-of-ontario.org/chiefs-of-on...

My latest in @edmontonjournal.com . The Journal of the American Medical Association recently advised Long COVID in kids may have now surpassed asthma as the leading paediatric chronic illness. Danielle Smith's response: start charging for and limiting vaccines. edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu...

I have left my comments open for a while but I'm not seeing much in the way of angry rationalizations from Carney supporters these days. Have I managed to block them all? Or are they *gasp* engaging in critical thought? 🙈🙉🙊

“I think it’s because it doesn’t work particularly well, if you want the truth" Danielle Smith defends policy requiring Albertans to pay out of pocket for COVID vaccines after some shots go unused at taxpayer expense www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

“We are disassembling Gaza and leaving it as piles of rubble,” his Cabinet minister Bezalel Smotrich said in May. “And the world isn’t stopping us.”

Four days of solid propaganda and lies of omission from the so-called free press about Israel's attack on Iran. Documented here open.substack.com/pub/donotpan...

Reminder to Carney and his blinkered fans: Carbon capture will not solve climate change and it certainly won't let us safely burn *more* fossil fuels.

Russia was kicked out of the G8 in March 2014 exactly BECAUSE it launched its war in Ukraine by invading and forcibly annexing Crimea.

Which headline have you seen repeatedly? 1) "Virus that we thought was no big deal turns out to cause long-term health problems" 2) "Virus we thought caused long-term health problems turns out to be no big deal"

Exactly as expected. truthout.org/articles/und...

We're not getting out of the current mess without somehow removing people from the polluted information space. Too many of our leaders have lost any connection with reality.

I need folks to know that this isn't a real thing. Economic conservatism is fundamentally opposed to social liberalism. You can't reinforce capitalism and move wealth toward the wealthy while also pursuing social justice and equality

Could the West please decide: Do countries have a right to defend themselves or not? Are civilians near military command centres fair targets or not? Can you bomb hospitals with tunnels under them or not? Is criticizing a country the same as hating a religion or not?

Excellent! Although I was told many times that Americans couldn't turn out in large numbers like they do in other countries because reasons. 🤷

Nobody is rioting. Nobody is breaking any laws. These are cops in my city of Las Vegas just assaulting and arresting anyone on Fremont Street who looks at them. This is fascism.

Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. apparently embraces the outdated "miasma theory" of disease instead of the widely accept "germ theory" of disease, which may help explain some of the actions he's been taking.

Canadians clutching their pearls about ICE barely know the Liberals are pushing through a bill right now giving the gov the ability to check your mail, get your IP and internet history, and makes immigration and asylum seeking way more difficult

Good @wickdchiq.bsky.social piece on how Mark Carney is caving to Trump even as he gets credit for opposing Trump. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

As noted, minimizers hate nicknames (and love screenshotting from behind a block and reposting themselves lol). I hate being reminded that minimizers exist but people sometimes show me this stuff. It's not even worth addressing the multiple things wrong with this person's ongoing nonsense.

N95s also work against all airborne viruses.
