« Exiger qu’Auschwitz ne se reproduise plus est l’exigence première de toute éducation. Elle prend à ce point le pas sur toute autre que je ne crois pas avoir à la justifier ».

Désolé Teddy, c'était un moment d'optimisme naïf. Ça l'air qu'il fallait le justifier.

Pas besoins de scabs quand le gouvernement est complètement servile au capital.
Pardon ?!

"Le ministre du Travail, Jean Boulet, affirme qu’il est en train d’analyser la possibilité de changer le Code du travail pour s’accorder de nouveaux pouvoirs en cas de grève ou de lock-out. Il dit vouloir s’inspirer du Code canadien du travail."
Le ministre du Travail pourrait pouvoir suspendre une grève

Comparez le nombre de chroniques sur Haroun Bouazzi avec celui sur la présence d'un groupe d'extréme-droite au PQ.

Maintenant, avec qui les chroniqueurs québécois sont le plus complaisants, les wokes ou l'extrême-droite?

They should make a Death of Stalin type movie about the death of Mao but instead of british actors it should be american actors and a Nixon looking actor should play Mao. No i will not be explaining

John Abromeit responds to W. Scheuerman & Chris O'Kane on the centenary of the Frankfurt School, presenting critical theory as "critical historicism" & centering Horkheimer's notion of "dialectic of bourgeois society."

Always rich when NATO members at NATO meeting condemn “violence” occurring during a demonstration.
