klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Why ask him anything? There is zero usable content in anything that comes out of his mouth. If you skip past every quote or interview in text, video or audio, you will have missed exactly nothing. 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 19/09/2026I think i see what you mean now. Is the question more about how they changed once they got there? I couldn't comment on that because I was born on the west coast, but certain elements out here have been marinating in victimhood for generations too. 120
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 19/09/2026The cod fishery collapsed and they migrated to Alberta to make a living. It feels like ancient history now but it was a big upheaval in the 90s. 120

klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 12/09/2026True, but let's keep our eyes on the prize. He and his people may be stupid, demented, illiterate, drug-addled, geriatric pedophiles, but the salient fact is that *they're an existential threat*. Fight them on that basis. The rest is a distraction. 010
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Seriously, there are more guys on bluesky trying to score points pretending to be indigenous than there are indigenous people in Canada. Reminds me of this winner: 060
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 08/09/2026It's always a tell when they bring up guilt. I'm a settler who benefits from the colonisation of Lekwungen territory. I don't feel guilt, I feel a sense of responsibility. Right-wingers hate the very concept of responsibilty and raise the spectre of guilt to poison it. 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 08/09/2026The "paragon of light" lives in the dark because 8 paragraphs is just too much. 140

klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I knew it was bullshit in 1984 and I know it's bullshit now. They never cared about anything but money and power. 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 06/09/2026I have to wonder, though: where are the people who *should* be angry about this? They seem awfully quiet. 020
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 06/09/2026You're talking to people who believe only one thing can be true at a time. If nothing else, I admire your persistence 😀 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 04/09/2026Federal health care funding is conditional upon provinces' adherence to standards set by the fed, including that it be universal and not-for-profit. They are in no way independent. www.canada.ca/en/health-ca...canada.caHow publicly funded health care coverage works - Canada.caIn Canada, each province and territory has its own publicly funded health insurance plan. 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 03/09/2026They could examine the fact that residential school denialism is just the politically-palatable successor to Holocaust denialism. If a party can't exist without elevating a disempowered "other" to the status of existential threat, fascist is exactly the right word. 031
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 03/09/2026And while they're at it they can start referring to the Fraser Institute and CTF as industry-funded right-wing propaganda. They already call the CCPA a left-wing think tank. 031
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Tune in to David Frum's William F. Buckley cosplay hour (er, "podcast") to see him jerk off to Kenney's performance of reason, acuity and equanimity. It's every bit as gross as it sounds. 010
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 03/09/2026The panic over piker in mainstream dem and media circles is moronic, but it might be useful to fully investigate his history of being a pro-Russia/China tankie, which is arguably just as important as his position on Palestine. 030
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 02/09/2026Given his complete lack of qualifications for anything, they'd probably try to recruit him. 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 02/09/2026To think a conservative landslide was "inevitable" right up until Trump decided we should be the 51st state. On the other hand Carney's economic program (gut the public service and go all in on extraction) very much rhymes with parts of PP's agenda. In politics every sword has two edges. 010

klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Kinda telling that they pretend to care about women's safety when by far the largest threat to any woman anywhere is her male partner. I wonder why they don't talk about that... 071
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Don't forget "ISLAMIST POSTMODERN NEOMARXIST FASCIST!" I wore that one with especial pride. 010
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 30/08/2026That's how a climate scientist explained it to me. I was speculating about gradual change and he explained that even if the concentration of carbon and air temperature changed slowly, the disappearance of arctic sea ice would flip reflection to absorption like a switch. Boom. Fucked. 000
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 29/08/2026I shouldn't be this conflicted about a gay immigrant being kidnapped by masked shock troops. But here we are. 140

klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 25/08/2026And then "centrists" decide that we should hear "both sides" which is why Naziism shambles on like a zombie eating the brains of vulnerable man-children. 000

klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 14/08/2026Why? You went to all this trouble to become a historian so you could sit around and let a machine grind our story into baby food? If you don't have any passion for the practice of history just quit and leave it to people who do. 0141

klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 11/08/2026I used to believe that there are really no bad people, only bad circumstances. Trump and his bootlickers have *really* challenged my thinking on that. 140
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 11/08/2026A lot of independent media are doing that but unfortunately 90% of Canadians ignore them. 130
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 11/08/2026Saw this add yesterday from Environment and Climate Change Canada... selling gas fired power plants. You're supposed to *prevent* climate change, you absolute donuts. I swear, Trump only wishes he could enshittify the world as fast as Carney, and be praised for it. 0104
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 09/08/2026For anyone interested, this is called the "package deal fallacy," where because you have accepted one part of a proposition you must accept all of it. Data center spending has quintupled in 3 years for Ai. To compare it to retail logistics is a category error, and kind of a lame one at that. 100
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 08/08/2026That too. I mean, I'm sure some of them are comfortable but not private equity shitheel comfortable. 040
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 08/08/2026Imagine thinking marginally lower retail prices would be worth the Amazonification of Canadian dairy: they sell substandard, imported garbage, it's a foreign company subsidized by your tax dollars and one man is getting very, very rich off of it. Ending supply management is a sucker's bet. 1120
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 04/08/2026We can toss anecdote grenades at each other all day. Not productive. You can look up the numbers yourself. If you have a problem with them, harass the researchers. I'm sure they'd love to hear your anecdotes. 110
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 04/08/2026Good point! Do you need me to post the stats on how many people use those trucks to tow or do you know how to use Google yourself? (Hint: it's about 9%) 120
klanawa.bsky.social @klanawa.bsky.social · 03/08/2026Well yes, because you were at Lowes and people buy heavy things from Lowes, often for work. If you were at 7-11 you'd see a lot of F150s and they'd be empty. Selection bias. 170
