Smartest guy on Bluesky - at least that’s what my Mom says.
Hey wait, I said “smartest guy on bluesky”. I’m a poet and I didn’t even realize it!

This gov’t had been defaming, slandering, and harassing Mentzelopoulos both directly and via several proxies.
An outright campaign of intimidation to both destroy her professional reputation, and intimidate her into silence.

Remember when Danielle Smith condemned the "arrogance" of a government for passing laws in a matter of days?
Now she's rammed through a law stripping teachers' charter rights in a single day.
Seems the "democratic process" no longer matters to her now that she's in power.
