If you’re in Canada and you want to get looped into the anti-war movement, this phone action tomorrow night is a great way to dip your toe in the water. Just put on the zoom call while cooking dinner, and they’ll walk you through everything.

oh to have no interface with reality
country perpetually on the verge of recognizing their role in empire, but never quite getting there
somehow I suspect Iran, Palestine and Venezuela have a better understanding of "how bad it can get" right now
I dont know if this is a bizarrely framed news story or a description of an actual mindset. but there's something disappointingly familiar about Canadians feeling "kinship" with the victims of Trump's mean posts instead of the targets of US (para)military adventures
seems very Canadian somehow to be more upset about trade threats against Spain than dropping bombs on Iran

that's a saturated market
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

I've found it really interesting & inspiring chatting w ppl about today's strike. From my few anecdotes, I've seen ppl jump at the chance to feel like they're doing something & even better, to start thinking about the logistics of a bigger general strike: "what does my workplace think of this..."

People are right to be incensed, but there are more names to uplift. ICE killed an immigrant man named Silverio Villegas González in Chicagoland. He had children. Victor Manuel Diaz was kidnapped in Minneapolis and died in ICE custody on January 14. Their names deserve to be repeated, too.
A line of Minneapolis police at the site of an ICE murder on January 24, 2026.
After murdering a man, ICE has fled the area, making Minneapolis police take over crowd control.
Without the complicity of local and state police who supposedly answer to Democrat politicians, ICE would not be able to continue kidnapping and killing people.
Begin by pressuring local authorities.
If you are angry, stay angry. They want us to think this is normal and how life will be.
I’ll be dammed if I ever let that happen.
ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

likewise "the Washington Consensus was a neocolonial lie" and "so we're going to reproduce it on a national scale"
the dissonance between "the global trade order is breaking down" and "therefore we're digging up all the oil and minerals we can find to sell on world markets" basically broke me
Look, it's simple. We just want the worst person in the world to die
For people elsewhere who have asked how to support Minnesota while we’re overrun with nazi thugs, here’s an excellent list of places that could use financial help. Lots of choices. Thank you so much!
