I have rage. This is why we never allowed blood, plasma, organs to be paid exchanges in the past. It *automatically* leads to the exploitation of people already struggling to make ends meet. Tax the fucking rich and implement a universal UBI. Instead, we just keep making things harder for people. 😡

A large majority of young Canadians say they have a negative opinion of Pierre Poilievre.

The Conservatives and their shills still want you to believe Poilievre is popular among young people.

Disinformation is all they have. Don’t stop calling it out.

Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024.

This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

And we're supposed to believe Starbucks can't afford to bargain a fair contract with its unionized workers?
