There's this weird idea that boys are being radicalized to be conservatives. No. The boys were raised by conservative parents who hate girls, and who taught their sons to hate girls and women for daring to be something other than property. People who aren't already bigots cannot be radicalized.

Right wing media has nothing to do with whites. It's a man problem. And if these parents cared, they would have already taught their children how to view girls and women as whole autonomous human beings. But because they didn't, and their sons already hate us, they are very easy to "manipulate"

Both of them are wrong; the legislative and judicial branches are separate for very good reason.

Lutnick, sources said, also suggested the White House has taken the position of “America first, Canada second” and "there’s nothing Canada can do about it".

The hell there isn't. Lutnick and his gang of MAGA thugs are doing a great job of ensuring there is *zero* goodwill from Canadians.

Screaming this from the rooftops again. If you don’t know about the IDU, it’s time to learn. It’s a piece of the puzzle that’s barely mentioned, least of all in the mostly-US owned media we consume in #Canada. Research and critical thinking is urgent right now.
