I'm deadly serious about this: every Republican should be shown this photo on TV and asked if they repudiate/reject/renounce Musk. And if not, why not.

Schooley@schooley.bsky.social · 7d ago

Democrats who have had absolutely nothing to do with Hasan Piker will be hounded about him, while Republicans who are directly benefitting from Musk funding will be asked about him in the most generic "money in politics" way, if at all.

When they do this, it's not enough to reject the demand. You've got to shove it back in their face, and ask why they never ask Republicans to denounce the racist mass murderer who is their party's top donor and who was given the keys to the federal government to cause mass chaos.

You can expect the same trifecta is targeting Canada.

Anonymous@youranoncentral.bsky.social · 2w ago

Spain’s PM Pedro Sánchez confirms our initial assertion that it was Russia, Israel, and US (far right networks) targeting Spain. Russia and Israel are targeting Spain due to its position on the genocide in Gaza or Putin's invasion of Ukraine. US is a proxy acting for both.

That’s why it’s my first choice for ice cream. 🇨🇦 Now if only our grocery stores would stop stocking US products and get them from our allies and reliable trading partners

Craig 🌎 🛩️ 💙🇨🇦@bigdaddykreativ.bsky.social · 3w ago

Canada's largest ice cream company used to source its fruits and nuts from U.S. suppliers — some for over 30 YEARS. Then, Trump imposed a 25% tariff on Canadian products. So, what did Chapman's do? They called Italy. They called Spain. They signed multi-year contracts with European suppliers.

The Economist will wonder about giving rights to AIs before giving them to trans people

The Economist@economist.com · 3w ago

As AIs become part of everyday life, the pressure to give them rights will mount. But this might help bring about the most disastrous consequences for everyone on Earth and all their descendants bit.ly/4xOPoHo

I love how this contradicts with the argument for the deportations - that migrants were stealing jobs from everyone else. Now the claim is that the jobs were created by migrants just as they are now gone with them.

Even trying to *get* a protection order put my life at risk. The most recent femicides here in Ontario involved women being killed by men they had protection orders against. The system needs to change.

The Canadian Anti-Stalking Association (CASA)@antistalkingcanada.bsky.social · last mo.

The Law Commission of Ontario has released a new report about protection orders. Based on surveys with survivors AND professionals, they found: The vast majority of participants agreed that protection orders matter. Yet only a small minority said that protection orders are working well.

Local man claims to have zero expenses unless you count his expenses.

Nope. I don’t accept this position — that we are powerless to change the outcome of this mess. We have a small, time-critical window where we can collectively navigate through this. Also don’t forget, these are commercial entities that are selling products/services that are subject to laws.

Private companies could ruin the night sky for the entire world, and international law can't stop them
