That Darkmode font that all the AI slop posters use is maybe the worst popular font since Papyrus. It’s even worse than that Museo font that was popular like ten years ago.

This is foul. A reader reached out and told me the first google result when you search "kamloops unmarked graves discovery" is residential school denial. I did the search myself, and I found the same thing. The first non-sponsored result is the Fraser Institute's residential school denial.
Google search result for "kamloops unmarked graves discovery" has, as its first non-sponsored post, a publication from the Fraser Institute.

It reads: "No evidence of 'mass graves' or 'genocide' in residential ..."

All you can see on this first screenshot is the AI overview (barf) and the sponsored result from Angus Reid. However, as the other screenshots show, that Angus Reid result is followed by the first non-sponsored result: residential school denial from the Fraser Institute.

I would go a step further and argue that if you are not actively anti-colonial in your politics you are by definition not anti-fascist. Colonialism and fascism are one and the same, as Césaire and Jackson and so many other important anti-fascist thinkers have told us.

Justice Murray ended her ruling by addressing DULF’s founders directly, saying they did the public interest a service “at considerable personal cost.”

“You selflessly put yourselves to the side for this cost, and it’s something that most people wouldn’t do,” said Justice Murray. “I applaud you for what you’ve done. I think you should be very proud of yourselves, and it’s people like you who make a difference.”

The more I think about this as I wake up this morning, the more I realize that journos covering this story should probably include the fact that a doctor local to this synagogue received an antisemitic COVID conspiracist death threat about 6 months after this shooter left the army.

This is what Fred Hampton preached, which is why a bunch of Nazis ran in to tell you the cripples are coming for your gym pass so the discourse could be “purge these fucking wrecker freaks” instead of any sort of critical thought or solidarity.
A portion of transcript from the Death Panel episode “Health Fascism, Body Politics, and the Anti-State State” in which Beatrice Adler-Bolton is speaking:

“Our task is not to become less disposable, to become more useful to the ruling order. What we all need to be doing is rejecting disposability in all of its forms. The point is not to beat the fascists at their own game.”

I think one of the hang ups people have about shorter work weeks is they assume it is fewer hours at whatever wage they’re currently making, so the prospect of a shorter work week without the clarification that this comes with an increase in wages to make up for fewer hours is anathema.

Employers always want binding arbitration because it saves them from the onus of compromise, which strikes force them into. It always gives them the upper hand, if not the best outcome. If they wanted to be fair to workers they wouldn’t force them to strike.
