🧵 A thread on why "We must fight the information war on Xitter" does not make any sense anymore.

In this thread I will lay out all the many reasons the battlefield is impossible to win. Not because of us, but because of how Xitter works now. How's its designed to fuck us all over.

USA political interference is by far the worst of any foreign country.
It has been going on for decades.
And yet we just accept it.
This needs to end right now.
There is a small group of Albertans, who are financially backed by right wing Americans, who are trying to have a referendum. Which, if it occurs, will be overwhelmingly defeated.

The US regime is doing what US governments have done for decades: foreign interference.

Why? Oil.

Extortion. Treason!
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.

Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

Alex Pretti "used to tell people off when they made sexist comments to female physicians. He bought me coffee when I had a really bad day as an intern...I laughed alongside him daily. He made a point to teach medical residents without judgement, but with a smile on his face and a joke."

3 years ago, Brad Paisley became a UNITED24 ambassador.

Brad used his voice and his platform to remind the world about Ukraine and support our people.

Thank you for your help, for visiting Ukraine, and for featuring our country in your songs, Brad 💙💛

American democracy now hanging in the balance solely on the notion that the US President is term limited by the constitution which would require a supermajority to overturn. That’s the only remaining guardrail.

American Fascism is testing the limits of what it can get away with, having already gotten away with a failed coup, we are now well into the rounding people up without due process and extrajudicial executions stage.

If Reform were a German party, British media would call it fascist.
If the VIP Lane had happened in Italy the BBC would have called it corruption.

This is unacceptable from any ally, breaks NATO rules, and is an attempt to destabilize us. As an Albertan, this crossed my red line entirely and left it in the dust. The US is not an ally of Canada, Alberta, or pro-Canada Canadians.

At this point, just do it. Carney’s deal with China was to help sell our canola and lumber. But whatever. For me, an Albertan, the US Regime is an enemy given Bessett’s statements and their meetings with Alberta separatists. The US is breaking NATO rules with their interference.
Trump’s back to threatening 100% tariffs on Canada this morning, wow I can’t imagine why the Canadians now see the Chinese as a more reliable trade partner

of the firehose of lies Trump spews with every sentence he utters, the most offensive is what he implied about Canadian soldiers & their role in Afghanistan.

158 🇨🇦 fatalities. a number caused by “friendly” fire from bumbling US military.

Canada owes the US nothing. Not one thing. Everything the US has done in the relationship with Canada benefits the US in some way. There has been nothing given to Canada freely and we've had an economic relationship that is of mutual benefit. This is not "owing" them or being alive because of them.

This statement was also timed just after the threat of Tariffs against Canada.

Another attempt to put a wedge between allies.

UK, Mexico, Australia and the EU need to respond in kind and threaten 100% tariffs against Trump or he just takes us apart one by one.
