Great piece here by my colleague @erinblondeau.bsky.social
Canada faces a pivotal moment to champion climate justice over nationalism, ensuring a future where human rights and environmental stewardship are at the forefront.
Fight fascism with climate justice, not 'Canada First' nationalism
Instead of turning towards nationalism, in the face of rising fascism, we should turn to each other and the planet.

at some point if you're willing to admit that this salute mimicks another *recent* famous salute you might as well just say which historical salute both are mimicking. but apparently nobody wants to be the first to say "Nazi"
Steve Bannon whipped up the CPAC crowd by talking about the possibility of Trump staying in office for a third term—and concluded his speech by giving a provocative gesture that resembled the controversial salute Elon Musk gave at a post-inauguration rally last month.

Dear supporters, our account on X (formally known as Twitter) has been hacked in an attempt to discredit our movement and silence Palestinian voices. Malicious content is now being posted to our X account.

The archetects of the US government are full blown and open Nazis and still media dance around this as if it's not clear.

And in Canada, when our spy agency says that the antisemitic threat comes from the far right, CBC manages to blame Muslims and Palestinian activists:

bsky.app/profile/did:...
I feel so sick. Enough with the lies, enough with the games. They know exactly what they're doing.

This is a neo-Nazi movement. Proudly so. The only reason they've kept it coded up until now was to take advantage of those who didn't want to believe it.

No more looking away. Face up to what it is.
