The system is the problem. Stop the grocery retailers from constantly raising the prices. Until you do that. It won’t stop.

Clearly Americans need to block this from happening.

Do you think he is capable of the extreme things he’s accused of in the latest E files?

@podsaveamerica.crooked.com Your flippant tone in regards to discussing Trump’s threats to Greenland and Canada was pretty off putting in this episode. Must be nice to be able to find it all so funny…From your comfort in the imperial capital. Meanwhile in Greenland/Canada we worry about our future.

It’s the problem really the cars being given priority over transit as always?

This is the arguement lead Europe to rely on Russian oil. They won’t attack us if they we are good economic partners. It doesn’t work. They we should instead withdraw our economic power from these countries and trade together only.

Carney is a classic liberal with no principles. He’s helping Trudeau’s legacy at this point. Trudeau at least talked to First Nations, and called out India for murdering Canadians in Canada. It’s clear we need to move away from the US but should be siding with countries with comparable values.

The one Canada should study.

He’s a typical liberal. They just go with the current status quo. Could be progressive, or conservative or even fascist depending on the current political climate. There are no principles. Right now the status quo is ignore climate change. This will face huge resistance from BC and First Nations.

Thank you for doing the principled thing and resigning. It’s beyond depressing to see this. I encourage people to watch the documentary Yintah on Netflix. There will be massive resistance to this pipeline.

If Americans were serious the same would have happened to Trump. But their political class is committed to elite criminal impunity as a central value.

She has literally predicted everything that’s happens since 2016.

I live around here and this strip is going to have a ton of massive buildings. But at least the streetscape is being preserved. You’ve got these great buildings below, why not as an architect play with the design aesthetic of the buildings below. There’s so much to draw from.

@taranarmstrong.bsky.social Taran. You have to watch Traitors: Australia season 1, Traitors UK 2 and Traitors Canada 2. The three best seasons. The Civilian version is a million times better than US celebrity version. With civilians they have no clue who the traitors could be.

Right now I don’t buy that he’s doing much of anything. Liberals want to maintain the status quo no matter what that is.

The film « The Nazis: A warning from
HistoryΒ Β» is really striking. I watched it in early 2017 was was stunned by how similar Hitler and Trump actually are.

Sarah Kendzior in her book « They KnewΒ Β» talks about the xfiles. It’s about the important distinction between actual conspiracies which are real and do happen, and conspiracy theories which are not real but contain elements of truth from the real conspiracy. Like QAnon landing on Epstein.

It was the general vibe of the 90s. Skepticism and distrust of the government. Questioning official narratives and state secrets. To me this is more health questioning government conspiracy, whereas nowadays it’s more like cults of conspiracy theories. Very different things.

He is literally trying to provoke Black Americans into the streets so he can grab them and send them to a camp or deport them. They should not take the bait. To me, resistance is staying home in this case. He wants to do The Purge. Don’t go out protesting. At least force them to go door to door.

Sarah Kendzior does a great job of tackling this in her book « They KnewΒ Β». It’s about the distinction between actual conspiracy and conspiracy theories. The reality is that there are actual conspiracies like Epstein. And conspiracy theories have truth embedded in them.

We should have nothing to do with this shield.

What Trump was all about was widely known in the 90s. He’s been a part of the top culture for decades. It wasn’t until Mark Burnett created The Apprentice that people started believing he was a billionaire businesssman instead of a bankrupt failure. None of this happens without that show.

If she’s been handed powers it makes no sense not to fully use them. The Right would never hesitate.
