I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

I voted NDP because I knew Carney shouldn’t be trusted.
I voted Liberal to avoid mindless right-wing cuts to heritage, research, the National Archive. I got mindless cuts.
I voted Liberal to avoid stupid populism. I got stupid populism.
live shot from the Liberal convention
Reminder that Carney is cutting funding to Environment and Climate Change Canada by 45%.

it makes sense when you consider that one company owns almost all our grocery stores, and one that owns all our telecommunications, that we would just have one political party that's just kind of all them at once.
Carney really out there 'both-sides'ing things, huh? Not fucking surprised. Coward.
*The US president threatened to destroy Iran*
Carney: We ask that both sides in this conflict don’t destroy Iran.
Screenshot of a post from Donald Trump: A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again. I don't want that to happen, but it probably will. However, now that we have Complete and Total Regime Change, where different, smarter, and less radicalized minds prevail, maybe something revolutionarily wonderful can happen, WHO KNOWS? We will find out tonight, one of the most important moments in the long and complex history of the World. 47 years of extortion, corruption, and death, will finally end. God Bless the Great People of Iran!
The President of the United States is openly threatening to commit genocide against 90 million people.
Prime Minister Carney: if there was ever a moment to denounce this illegal war, withdraw your support, and call for accountability for war crimes—it’s now.
I mean, you don't really need a translator
Happy Christofascist Easter to all who celebrate!
Jesus is risen! And also, threatening war crimes and terrorism against a civilian population!🤡
Impressive levels of "are we the baddies," and we're not even at brunch yet!
China has more than 70% of all the high speed rail in the entire world.
It installs more Renewable Energy than the rest of the world combined.
It has some of lowest electricity and water prices in the world.
All because China never privatised any of it.
It’s almost as the former Wildrose leader who didn’t believe the “science was settled on climate change” is the same person who became Premier of Alberta.
Weird.

If you are an adult complaining about how sacred the Harry Potter series was to your childhood while insisting you have a right to enjoy the show you are in fact a little bitch.
you’re posting an out-of-context clip from 6 years ago in a transparent attempt to smear avi lewis.
the full video is avi and naomi reacting to attacks on the leap manifesto - an inspiring climate plan you once called “self-indulgent posturing.”

Until they are willing to make even the smallest criticism of their guy, we can only assume that Carney fans are pro-war, pro-fossil-fuels, indifferent to international law, and fine with deals being made with one problematic government after another.
Pop Quiz! Which of these three countries has threatened Canada's sovereignty?
Cops are not workers, and must not have unions.
Just in case you wanted to know the real constituents for Carney’s government
Mark Carney did not join NATO allies in signing this joint statement reaffirming the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Denmark and Greenland:
"international law must be followed" is european for "thoughts and prayers"
The average Canadian's knowledge of our country's politics amounts to "We're the nice ones" and any historical evidence to the contrary is either non-existent or an aberration in their minds. Clearing the plains, Boer War, WWI war crimes, aiding US invasions, Somalia Affair, Haiti. All handwaved.
Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
I think our leaders have made it pretty clear that their role is to extract as much profit as possible at any cost. They treat the world like a chess match that scores wins for the corporate class. The spectrum of humanitarian care ranges from apathy to sadism. Naive beyond belief to think otherwise
This is the only political podcast I never miss an episode of, ever.
The Globe and Mail's editorial board has compared Palestinian solidarity protests to the KKK holding a lynching.
This newspaper is so ignorant and so anti-Black that it proudly announces that it is racist and iditotic without knowing it.
this is not behavior becoming of a FIFA Peace Prize recipient.
I'm not convinced that PM Goldman Sachs is an abstract, long-term thinker. And this hasn't just damaged his relationship with May; now other parties have reason not to trust him.
“I don’t know if the prime minister lied but I think he needs to consider what his word means when his word was given"
I think people really do not have enough disdain for politicians.
