I lived in Moscow for 7 years and it tracks that these yahoos are associated with the Logos School (and if they're associated with Logos, they're almost definitely associated with Christ Church and New Saint Andrews—basically christofascists)

I worry that people are relying too heavily on the fact that all this is unpopular in the polls. Most autocrats are unpopular with their people. Once you control every branch of government, muzzle the press, and start murdering your own citizens with impunity, you don't need to be popular.

I’ve been researching Canadian tech services to replace American companies like Kickstarter, MailChimp, etc… so it’s great to add Helcim to my list.

1. Little business update! Last fall, I shared here how dissatisfied we were with our then-payment processor, Global Payments, & encouraged everyone who uses a payment processor to, a/ audit their monthly bill line-by-line, and, b/ get at least one, & preferably several, quotes from competitors.

Welcome to the Resistance, Jerome Powell.
I watched the fascist murder video so you don't have to.
I don't recommend it, & I have some unoriginal thoughts:
1. Some folks join paramilitary organizations aspirationally, because they'd really like to kill people.
2. Fragile Male Ego.
3. This could happen here, too.

For me, speaking very personally, Canadian sovereignty doesn't matter in some kind of sacred or mystical way. It matters because self-determination is an aspect of democracy (this is true for Gaza, for Venezuela, for Greenland, for Mexico, for Ukraine, for Quebec, for all Indigenous nations.)

When I see our prime minister, yesterday, promising to recruit more RCMP officers, I don't think "ah good, the Mounties will protect us", I wonder whether these are the boots and the guns that will help them do the job. As they have in the past.
