Fwiw, I think your arguments about polydoxy could find fertile ground in the United Church of Canada, not that I am a position to help that happen

Downside: The US now has government goon squads, and deploys them to try to intimidate voters into voting the way the president wants. Upside: They don’t have nearly enough goons. Not even close. They’re hoping fear will make up for that big shortfall, but it won’t.

Its striking to me how these numbers are only slightly higher independence numbers than AB 6 months ago, despite The Everything. I have no idea what to do with that. But here we are. The 2020s: things exist, I have thoughts, and I have no idea what to do with either.

I'll be really curious how this comes out. I mean, I'm sure PQ will get more votes than anyone else, and the CAQ is nuked, but the details are hard to predict give that there are 5 parties genuinely in the mix.

Zygmunt Bauman made a similar-ish argument; that the modern social order of legitimacy and discipline has been replaced by seduction into a consumer order*, and repression for those who cannot. * As one would imagine, "seduction into a consumer order" required a book or so to really unpack.

I don’t disagree, but questions of what sort of opposition gets mobilized and what comes after Carney get worrisome.

Killed. NSF’s SBE was killed, in violation of law. The President does not have the power to choose to kill programs at a whim by defunding them. The imperial presidency was a mistake and we are in a separation of powers constitutional crisis.

Disappointing but not surprising. The idea we need more pipelines is supported by both the UCP and NDP. It’s bad policy, but it’s taken for granted by AB politicians

Why would it? Anyone who thought it would is an appeasement obsessed fool. And while they pretend otherwise, I do not believe Carney or Smith are fools

Screenshot of 2020 tweet by parody account Theo Broethius: “I'm happy to announce my 1200 page dissertation was accepted as a two volume monograph on the theology of smoking pipes called : "The Puffing Christ: Toward a Peaceful Ontology of Inhalation." Imagine if liberation theology was rigorous and didn't hate white men's culture”

Screenshot from theobro article: “Along with subscriptions, which range from $9.99 a month for premium content and $19.99 for VIP access, the company sells a “Christian Nationalist Starter Pack” of books for $99.99 with titles like “White Genocide” and T-shirts emblazoned with “It’s Ok to be White” and “I’ll Take the Christian, Hold the Judeo,” among other slogans. (The group also sells pro-nicotine T-shirts, part of their pro-smoking message.) Subscribers can listen to an audiobook version of Martin Luther’s “On the Jews and Their Lies” as well.”

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.
