You won’t believe what degrading practice the pope just condemned

The Trump administration has been spreading anti-vaccine propaganda for months. Tonight, Trump's physician announced he just received a flu shot and a COVID booster.

Those big city campuses like Dal in Halifax is full of right-wing frat boys. It’s actually dangerous to walk in the part of Halifax where the universities are at night if you’re a woman.

Well to be fair, other than the semester at U of L Lafayette (which was part of an exchange) I went to a very small campus

Yeah, no. Fuck the Puritans.

It’s true that some MAGA supporters are losing faith in Trump and expressing frustration. But evidence and trends suggest they’re flocking to explicit Fascists and growing more radicalized.

We can’t just sit back and hope. We have to fight.

This. If you don’t respect them (and you shouldn’t because they act in bad faith), their insults just roll off your back

(Though sometimes when insults don’t work, they do move onto threats)

LA Legault ⚜️ @lalegault.bsky.social · 7h

To take the insults of Conservatives seriously you have to respect them on some level. Disavow yourselves of that burden.

Canadians need to take seriously the threat of people in this country who are trying to get the whole country itself a terrorist entity by the US government.

We need to name and shame them.

Maybe a site to expose them?

Fascism demands to be taken seriously and to be feared. That makes mockery a powerful tool. Is it how you "beat" fascism? I wouldn't go that far. But inflatable Reptar has surely poked a clearer hole in the story the White House is telling that the Democratic Party's multimillion dollar comms shops.

This video is everywhere because it's a hilarious visual refutation of Portland being on fire. You can't get a mass movement going without convincing the masses

so yes, this does do something actually

This literally does nothing. You are not beating fascism by dressing up in inflatable suits and dancing

Portland is leading the way. This is how you (non violently) beat Fascism. Humor and ridicule are key.

Greene on the Epstein files: "I can't conclusively say that's why the House isn't in session, but the House should be in session...there is a new Democrat that's been elected that deserves to be sworn in...if it's to avoid the discharge petition, why drag this out? It's going to have 218 signatures"
