Charlie Kirk was a champion of free speech and anyone who says otherwise will be fired

An easy story for reporters in tech and extremism right now might be to ask major music streaming platforms why they quietly let Skrewdriver back on some time this year

More fascists should be told to fuck off.

Please normalize it. Their bullshit should be treated with the contempt contained in vulgarity.

For fucksakes.

Can prominent pro Palestine Canadian leftist journos stop making friends with the far right? First Lascaris praising Candace Owens and now this shit.

Not exactly being good allies to the LGBTQ community...

Alberta teachers are compiling lists of the books in their classrooms so the #ABGov can tell them which ones to toss. On a related note, Parkland Institute will be releasing a new report on the "Parental Rights" movement in AB next week. ualberta-ca.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Ughhh. You were so close. 🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

"Bad political instincts."

No!!

Carney is a central banker! Buddies with Trump! Oligarchs on the same side of the class war against us! Wake the fuck up!

Thanks for the share!

Think about every pro-Israel person who denied this was the plan for the past 22 months; who gaslit you; denied this to you; pretended this wasn't the plan.

And then never believe those liars about anything ever again.

So... according to Greenblatt, Elon doing the Nazi salute wasn't so bad. But students protesting...

What a fucking disaster the ADL is. What a joke.

Never in my lifetime has the Democratic Party been as much as a ghost ship as it is today. Incredible there aren't more insurgent primary campaigns. Power is just sitting there and the only thing guarding it is fossils like Chuck Schumer

Pierre Poilievre, speaking to caucus yesterday, referred to what I can only assume are the anti-genocide protests as “rampaging antisemitic riots.”

He got a standing ovation.

For seemingly pledging to crack down on people who want a genocide stopped.

Very “free speech” of him. Fucking foul

Notice that they're now shifting from "we need our parking spots" to "transit gets in the way of cars" type arguments.

Jason Stanley took a job at the Peter Munk funded Munk Institute.

Munk was an explicit supporter of Pinochet until the end of his life and ran a human rights violating and murderous mining company. I don't take people seriously who can take that kind of blood money.

“Massive numbers of students are going to emerge from university with degrees, and into the workforce, who are essentially illiterate…Both in the literal sense and in the sense of being historically illiterate and having no knowledge of their own culture, much less anyone else’s.”

I live in Alberta and I have no words to tell how much I respect and LOVE this!!! Thank you #FirstNations

Stop the liberal victory lap narrative. Politics has moved farther to the right in Canada and a technocratic neoliberal banker combined with a useless NDP will only drive people further to the right.

He also got the right a higher share of the popular vote than Harper ever did... And the highest in almost 40 years...

This kind of analysis is so surface level. What the numbers actually show is the cons would have won if not for Trump's tariff stupidity.

Far right extremists, inspired by Trump per Whitmer herself, tried to kidnap her. Trump himself later suggested it was a fake plot and mocked it. He called her ‘that woman in Michigan’ and led a crowd that chanted ‘lock her up.’

Today Whitmer hugged him on the tarmac.

This is why Dems lose. 🤷🏽‍♂️👇🏽

Appropriate energy when dealing with brown shirts.

According to three members of Congress, Rumeysa Ozturk has been repeatedly denied access to her lawyer, refused asthma medication despite attacks, forced to endure extreme temperatures, and denied religious accommodations.

Her ‘crime’? An oped in a school newspaper.

History books will barely be able to cover the montrous depravity of Trump's actions, since we can barely cover it in daily news accounts to imagine having to pick just a few examples to summarize his evil on a page in a HS text.

But this could make the cut.
