“UN backs historic climate crisis ruling despite US attempts to stop resolution.” US, Russia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Yemen, Liberia, and Belarus opposed the measure. The Resolution backed a world court opinion that countries have a legal obligation to address climate change. Passed 141-8.

“I don't think men understand where women are right now. After Gisele Pelicot, then the Italian case, now this. It's become undeniable: men view us as orifices or irrelevant. We're in a profoundly dark place, whereas they are carrying on as if it's just another news story." 1/2
Screenshot of Facebook post:
Leanne Wood *
War on women.
It's clear from the Epstein files that the "Me Too" movement had to be defeated. It's pretty obvious why.
Carol Cadwalladr: "I struggled all week to write about the momentous geopolitical revelations in the Epstein files. And I realised it's because I had to write this first.
Epstein's world is our world. We live in a paedophiliac culture. That's what we can't face. But now have to.
Sexual desire for children is not just protected, it's monetised. It's algorithmically amplified, fed into LLMS owned by Jeff's friends.
The global superpower is another close pal. This is Jeff's World. And we're living in it."
"That, I think, is why my words wouldn't come this week.
And why other women I know have struggled too."
"I don't think men understand where women are right now. After Gisele Pelicot, then the Italian case, now this.
It's become undeniable: men view us as orifices or irrelevant. We're in a profoundly dark place, whereas they are carrying on as if it's just another news story."
"...a culture which reveres female youth and innocence despises female age and experience. It disgusts them, scares them. That's our pedophiliac culture too; misogyny of adult women is the opposite of sexual desire for girls, an inverted mirror.
We are crones, hags, witches. Because we're a threat.
Because we see these men for who they are. Because, except for rare exceptions - the monstrosity that is Ghislaine Maxwell - we are protectors. Of children. Of society. Of a world in which rich men don't get to act with impunity. Not on our watch.."

If Google stopped providing GMail for free tomorrow, there is nothing any Canadian government could do about it. And quite frankly, nor should they. If you want e-mail as a critical service, make Canada Post an e-mail provider. And make it accountable to the people through Government.

This is just another absolute own goal by Carney. He showed Canadians that he's willing to be complicit with some truly awful people (Trump, Rubio, Kushner, Blair) in a deeply immoral land theft project *and* he got suckered for his trouble.

Also worth noting that we know the solutions for these problems, and we have a large amount of extremely strong evidence proving that they are very solvable issues, but we choose to let corporate interests and the super rich keep us from living better lives

The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
