Jen Gerson with more truth bombs: “Voting to leave is not sending a message to Ottawa. It’s sending a message to Washington.” “The message is this: Canada is weak, regionally divided, and can be turned on itself for America’s benefit. Ultimately, that message hurts all of us, including Albertans.”

Jen Gerson: Oh, so you want to send Ottawa a message, eh?
Vote to stay and send Washington the right message. Namely, don’t fuck with us.

Pandering to extremists (and foreign interference) will obviously not make it go away. So what other motives are there for this wholly unnecessary vote that no one wanted? 🤔

The separatists are toast, but the danger isn't over. We need to prepare for the reaction from the US regime when their little quisling pets fail to deliver the goods. We should expect allegations of rigged elections designed to tempt the US into "liberating" Alberta from mean ol' Canada.

I think we need some kind of foreign exchange program where every American adult needs to live in a functioning social democracy for 6 months, just to recalibrate their sense of what is normal in terms of public services, health care, workers' rights, and so on and so on

We’re watching AI roll out as if we have no choice, as if it’s inevitable. But why should we be spectators in this enormously dangerous game pushed by Big Tech? Why should we have to accept the hugely negative, potentially life-threatening consequences? We don't — and we shouldn't.

Malignant narcissists experience increased paranoia, denial, and rage as death nears. They often externalize these experiences through destruction and abuse of others in an effort to maintain a sense of control. I suspect all of these wars are in part related to Trump’s awareness of his mortality.

The resistance in Minnesota is relentless, disciplined, and fearless. Not afraid to die, too moral to kill. The regime has no idea how to handle that beyond murdering peaceful people and then smearing them post-mortem, thus revealing their utter depravity.

For @msnownews.bsky.social, I wrote an article about how ICE Watch is grounded in sociological theories of violence prevention. The reality is that most men will only commit public violence in extremely specific scenarios and ICE Watch disrupts the conditions necessary for escalation.
