The collective ignorance of MAGA, a cult that mindlessly repeats whatever they've been told by liars—and knows no actual history.

Jeffrey Rath is a flat-out liar. He's supposedly a lawyer. He should know a thing or two about self-incriminating statements. #abpoli #cdnpoli

IN RESPONSE TO THE LIES TOLD BY THE GLOBE AND MAIL I OFFER THE FOLLOWING RESPONSE

It is a complete lie that we offered the US anything when we visited Washington on behalf of Albertans in favour of Alberta Independence.

We were private citizens. We had no government mandate to offer anything. We only went to Washington to express the aspirations of hundreds of thousands of Albertans for a free and independent Alberta and to gauge US support for such a project.

We were gratified by the expressions of enthusiasm by US officials and the fact that Citizens of Alberta receive a far warmer welcome in Washington than we would ever receive in Ottawa.

I absolutely agree with this! It’s so sad that millions don’t. It shouldn’t have to happen to you for it to matter 💙
Just becase something doesn't affect you personally doesnt mean you shouldn't care about it.
We, as humans should desire to see others Free from suffering.

Women had experienced harassment for generations. In 1975, a group of women at… CORNELL decided to name it. Lin Farley put a name to it: “sexual harassment.” #SheShed #VivaHerAlliance

At press time, Trump was ranting about how Canadians “act like they’re totally innocent” but are “very bad” and are being “taught a little lesson,” like the pedophile-coded villain in a straight-to-VHS movie from 1996 🤣 we don’t apologize to fucking narcissistic dipshits #NotSorry #FAFO

I’m just going to leave this here, folks #auspol
Sketch of an Ancient Greek in the top left hand corner, with the following text:

Socrates:
When does the decline of society begin?

When the stupid are louder than the wise, 
When the lazy have more than the industrious,
When the unscrupulous are respected more than the honest, When those who have none preach morality, 
When character counts less than reputation, 
When children are no longer allowed to be children, 
When perpetrators are more protected than victims, 
When madness is glorified as "normal,
When politicians live not for the people, but off the people.

Said 2400 years ago and still valid today
