On top of that, what’s the last war they won? Maybe the war in Pacific.

You called it.
To say nothing if our pension plans, which love war, apartheid, and genocide.
We need tools like this. The university is indeed under siege. Without action, soon, we’ll have no public institutions and goods left.
“These crimes were committed against a backdrop of supremacist beliefs, racism, corruption, extreme misogyny, and the commodification and dehumanisation of women and girls from different parts of the world,” the experts said." www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...

Got a chapter with @philofwrite.bsky.social and @aysed.bsky.social on the media and Jan 6 coverage in @imogenrichards.bsky.social’s new book. www.routledge.com/The-Far-Righ...
>60% of liberal voter and more than 40% of conservative voters know Israel is committing a genocide. You want to atone for your neoliberal years? Get started. Lead.
@mark-carney.bsky.social advice: call the Gaza genocide a genocide. It is the right thing to do, and, if you’re Davis speech is to mean anything, the moral and reasoned thing to do. Then, van weapons sales. You might also expel the Israeli ambassador. The people will support you.
Q. How do we end oligarchic control of our political economy? They are kinda ruining everything for everyone all the time, at a quickening pace. Of all the bad ideas we’ve come up with, handing the reigns to the 0.1% is right up there.
Rand Paul’s views are often pretty awful, but he’s also at times right. Hs’s right here.
When i was young, Alberta (like every other prairie provinces) had a public telecom. We could have that again. Privatization of everything these past 40-50 years has not made life better. This includes the privatization of education, which is continuing at an accelerated pace.
Newton’s fourth law.
America the ugly.
Time to time and compromises must be made. But genocide isn't complicated. It isn't something to make one's peace with. We support an on-going, escalating genocide. Seeing as we committed one, I guess that is understandable
A fine speech, sure. But he can't utter the words 'Gaza genocide,' nor prevent weapons going to Israel. So, what do the words mean, really? Isn't the sign still out? The speech was the hanging out of the sign, unless actions inform and follow the words. Of course geopolitics is complicated from
Necropolis.
Wars aren’t fought to win so much as they are fought for profits. Endless
War is the goal.
I believe they have been released and are in Jordan.

According to the flotilla tracker & Al Jazeera, the Conscience (along with other flotilla ships) has been intercepted.
Time to get on the phones and call our MPs to demand Canada ensure the safe return of the Canadians on board including NL activists Devoney Ellis, Nikita Stapleton, & Sadie Mees.
Watching the sham replies of America’s chief law enforcement officer in Senate yesterday, it really did hit home that the institutions people can appeal to to take action - generally named ‘the government’ - are useless because they’ve really been taken over. How this ends won’t be pretty.
The federal government’s full-throated endorsement of LNG Canada Phase 2 is bad news for anyone who cares about Canada’s carbon emissions, or Canadians’ tax dollars, writes Janetta McKenzie www.nationalobserver.com/2025/10/07/o...
‘Cease the transfer of arms and other equipment or items, including jet fuel, to the State of Israel or third States where there is reason to suspect their use in military operations that have involved or could involve the commission of genocide.’
How hard is that to agree with? And yet we don’t.
Italy is, I believe, 3rd on list of countries that sell arms to Israel. The people recognize that’s a problem. Most people, in most countries recognize it too. Among UN’s recent recommendations:
I guess the @mark-carney.bsky.social government can’t be bothered to mention Israel’s violations of law in the action against the flotilla. Or offer support for those Canadians on board-you know, the best of us.
