They judge us women for our looks, then judge us again for caring about them.
It’s not logic, it’s a self-serving double-bind meant to keep women feeling small.
It’s their insecurity showing, not our flaw.

This is what conservatives really mean by “deregulation.”
Lobbyists write the rules, corporations poison the food supply, and politicians smile while cashing the cheques. Because in the US, profit is the whole political religion.
RFK looks like he's ingested more than a few “forever chemicals.” 🤮

If giving people food, housing, education, and time with their families is “socialism,” then maybe the problem isn’t socialism 🤷🏻♀️ it’s the people who think basic dignity is dangerous.
Society should help people live, not make them suffer.

There is no 'Cost of Living Crisis', it is the Cost of Greed.

If you fear a billionaire becoming a multi-millionaire, but you’re unbothered by kids going hungry or people dying without healthcare…
Then the problem isn’t economics. It’s your moral compass.
A society that protects hoarded wealth over human life is already failing. Socialism is the answer. 💜

Imagine using your platform to erase survivors & sanitize history. This isn’t pride in Canada, it’s denial. Strong countries face the truth, they don't legislate erasure.

I listen to my elders, I take to heart what they say. And they are telling me that PM Carney is treating my people in a way that they haven't seen from a leader at his level ever. Ever.
