What is the point of retiring to a destroyed world? Oh cool in 2065 I get to spend my monthly pension cheque on like 10 beans because massive crop failure will make food that expensive.

Not a good sign for non-market housing options (which are desperately needed!) to have Robertson be put in charge of this

Nothing any government could do would appease the Albertans. Being cry-babies is in their national spirit. Nationalize a pipeline for them as Trudeau did and they will curse your name for being somehow against oil and gas🤣

This annoying site often recommends everyone vote lib to stop PP even when the NDP in many ridings have historically better odds.

Yeah makes sense tbh

At least in this instance it is not capitulation to fascism.

Any opinion on people getting deported for liking posts supporting Palestinian rights, or does you concern for free speech only go to giving platforms to war criminals?

One of the few good things the liberals have done on housing is the Housing Accelerator Fund which incentivizes, not punishes municipalities to change zoning laws to densify housing. I haven’t heard any scandal related to that yet?

don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 31/03/2025
Federal governments can however create laws or incentives that push provincial or municipal governments to act. Money if you change your laws etc.

Part of how government made housing affordable back then was that they also issued the mortgages that were much easier to qualify for. Will your plan include this too?
020
don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 31/03/2025
We need more coop and social housing. A healthy mix (which no major cities have) where condos and rentals compete with these options is how you actually make housing affordable. Otherwise we’re trusting the market, which got us into this mess to solve the problem.

Between Two Fires is an awesome medieval horror book set in black plague era Christian Europe. Makes you realize there is no need to make up fantasy religion, medieval Christianity was nuts enough as is! And only one standalone 400 page book too!

You’re highlighting what is so clear: that the Democrats will not save anyone but their own asses. It’s up to the people, and looks like people have already shared events happening. Use those events as opportunities to see who are the leaders in your community and join them! :)

Your goddamn shit is messing with half the world now as American imperialism ramps back up again. It’s part of the fascist playbook to overwhelm and move quickly to discourage opposition. Don’t play into it! Join up whatever demonstration is happening in your area. Get offline and in the street!

Fascism will win if you believe democracy is only voting once every 4 years. Holy crap get the hell over your election hangover. If you are against Trump you are the majority!!!

don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 28/03/2025
Yep, but they are fewer than all of us who think otherwise. Trump will always have his indoctrinated ~30% of the country. Find your people!

Now! Get involved where you can in any org already in your community. Mutual aid, local politics, school board, supporting homeless etc. No one knows how we’ll get out of this, but it will happen as a result of the mass getting involved and being ready when the right mass movement emerges.

don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 28/03/2025
Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good! Just get involved, keep an eye on strategies and tactics that work and update your strategies once that happens. Do anything that supports people in your community and get out in real life with real people or else it doesn’t count haha :)!

don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 28/03/2025
Get involved in any movement already active in your community. Could be mutual aid stuff, local politicians, school board, anything! Not online! None of us are heroes, we need to plug into whatever already exists, build community and trust that whenever mass movements start you can plug into that.

Yep. I am no nationalist though, I am against fascism and corporatism wherever it is, so whoever stands against it is a’ok in my books!

You don’t have to be unionized to do a general strike, but building towards it is the goal. It’s a fantasy to say it’s possible right now, but also self-disarming to say never. But yes, everyone should get involved to their capacity, keep an eye to see what works and adapt to that.

They’re too high on their own farts in the conservative echo chamber that they have no idea how unpopular maple MAGA is.

don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 28/03/2025
So you give up and let the world fall to fascism? No! You rethink your tactics. Building towards general strike seems the way, but it is your duty to do anything you can to support whoever on the ground that is resisting. Do whatever you can, but do something!

Carney, PLEASE be bold and tack left, not trying your best to be conservative light. That lost Harris the presidency and will lose your race too. Those wanting conservatives will vote for PP.

I’ve never seen Canada (my country) so damn united. Funny thing is if this wasn’t happening, our Canadian MAGA analogue was set to win a majority government. Now he might well lose. I don’t hate Americans, I hate MAGA and any Americans who are not currently actively resisting it.

Of course, everyone would individually choose that option. Public healthcare is (and was) good when it is adequately funded. Chrétien then Harper austerity created the mess we currently find ourselves in. Properly fund the system and no one is forced to make the choice you describe.

There is no circumstance whatsoever where we get invaded AND get the right to vote. It would be the Puerto Rican setup at best.

Sim means “team player” in the sense that a small business owner does when hiring: someone who does not respect themselves and always obeys the boss.

They banked on campaigning to get the mythical moderate vote and in the process bled millions of votes compared to Biden’s result. But sure, keep the same strategy, surely next time people can be shamed to vote for them!

don-quichode.bsky.social @don-quichode.bsky.social · 05/02/2025
You don’t get it. If Dems promise nothing, and campaign as MAGA Light bragging about Cheney endorsements, people will either vote for the real republicans or not vote. No amount of “you deserve the next 4 years!” will change that. Scolding doesn’t get the vote out. Promises of real change does.
