What Canadian wants to visit a country where masked men just randomly grab people off the streets?

Aaron Rupar @atrupar.com · 1d

Q: Canadians are refusing to go the US. The numbers are down like 23% this year. What do you say to Canadians?

TRUMP: I understand that. And Americans don't want to buy cars that are made in Canada.

So very evident American right has never cared about free speech. They can say all the fucked up shit and call it free speech but apparently you should lose your job for not showing sorrow when a bigot dies

An Iowa official defied the governor’s orders to fly flags at half-staff for Charlie Kirk, writing he wouldn't honor a man who "did so much harm"

Official Defies GOP Governor's Order To Fly Flags At Half Staff For Charlie Kirk

He said he did not want to honor a man "who did so much to harm not only the marginalized, but also to degrade the fabric of our body politic."

So American media and politicians tried to say this assassin had trans ideology inscribed on the bullets because it was arrows pointing in different directions?

What calms my brain and helps me forget about the outside world for a few hours. Digging and moving dirt. Also keeps me ok shape.

10 months with not being able to use my dominant hand and I am so glad I can do this stuff again.

We really need to talk about the warring definitions of "political violence"

There are things that I consider to be political violence that are widely accepted, so posts like this make little sense.

If by political violence, you mean hurting republicans is bad, then sure, we've had that consensus

Patrick Wyman @patrickwyman.bsky.social · 28d

It's worth mourning the end of a 40ish-year-long broad American consensus that political violence is a bad thing, one that leads to lots of innocent people getting hurt and killed. We've been watching that consensus erode consistently since 2016 at the latest and now it's fully gone.
