As someone who works in a school with a “phone ban” I can honestly say the ban has done absolutely nothing lol there’s no way for teachers to enforce it.

Anyone who uses the term “psyop” to describe a band should not be taken seriously about anything.
an incredibly important project by Connie Walker — most Canadians don't know that the government has an archive of 38,000 residential school survivor testimonies, which are slated to be destroyed next year www.cbc.ca/news/indigen...
bsky.app/profile/crai... this is your big heroic opposition? We’re so fucked.
Bernie has also been useless. I’m not sure your point here.
How did the people of Minneapolis protest ICE then? Jeffries & Schumer could absolutely utilize the party to organize mass protests and targeting of Republican politicians. They choose to shrug and write letters nobody reads.
Chris Van Hollen flew to visit Garcia after the ICE kidnappings, the people of Minnesota organized resistance to ICE, Ro Khanna working with Massie to push the Epstein release. There are actual things the opposition can do. Jeffries & Schumer just sit there and shrug.
If they’re willing to support fascists holding different positions of office, I think they’re willing to avoid impeachment.
These people you praise continue to side with and confirm Trump’s fascist appointees. They are useless
It really is fascinating how overt it now is that there are certain - really not controversial - ideas that you aren’t allowed to say on television.
OpenAI employees pushed for the company to inform Canadian police about a user they thought would engage in real-world violence months before the person did just that, killing eight people in a horrific attack in Tumbler Ridge.
The company only reached out to police after the shooting had occurred.
Since I can’t sleep, here’s another hot take: The world would be a better place if everyone‘s science literacy was much better. There should be more emphasis on teaching basic science at all levels in school. Science isn’t just something nerds do, it’s the foundation of the modern world.
Some important details from Robert Redfield here: Covid started in the summer of 2019*, which nukes the “wet market” natural origin timeline And the head of the Chinese CDC told him in early January they had hundreds of cases and it “had nothing to do with the wet market.” Redfield understood that top Chinese officials were pushing the wet market narrative and U.S. officials were eager to play along since they were also implicated.
Redfield is a Trump appointee and known crank. If COVID was circulating in summer of 2019, the entire timeline of the pandemic would be different. Chinese authorities were not "pushing the wet market narrative," they actively covered it up.
What is happening to people's brains over there
In light of Jean Chrétien's most recent denialist comments - story to come, basically he downplays the harm of the IRS system - I went down the rabbit hole researching how far Indigenous leaders lobbied him, as Minister of Indian Affairs in the 1960s and 1970s, to close the system 🧵

People just blindly reading headlines like this and making aggressive statements in response is doing the damage to politics that this guy is claiming streamers do.
The comment you’re referring to says “Hasan doesn’t refer to Kamala at all” lol people just blindly reading headlines and making bombastic statements like this is exactly what the “streamification” of politics actually is.
The video you’re quoting was removed because it was fake lol at least click on the shit before you condemn, makes you lose credibility.
Video before it happens is showing this guy they shot in the head in Minneapolis was just standing there videoing them before and they got out to push him back and then murder him.
They *are* the federal government. By any authoritative definition, the United States is unequivocally a fascist state.
If the US were a geopolitical rival the headlines would be like: US Secret Police Execute Second Dissident In the Streets As Militarized Occupation Enters Sixth Week
ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?
ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.
I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.
there are so many gutting stories, but this one is hitting me extra hard. just imagining wael tarabishi slowly dying without his dad there to care for him because he was jailed by ICE makes me…i don’t have words. this country is disgusting.
A Cuban migrant held in solitary confinement at an immigration detention facility in Texas died after guards held him down, according to an autopsy report released Wednesday that ruled the death a homicide. n.pr/49xRXVf
If you have read even a single history of fascism, you are already aware that one thing that its rise has in common in every case is an opposition party that refuses to intervene for fear of looking weak or putting the left into power
Carney: "American hegemony in particular helped provide public goods, a stable financial system... this bargain no longer works. Let me be direct. We are in the midst of a rupture, not a transition... recently, great powers have begun using economic integration as a weapon. Tariffs as leverage ... "
Federal immigration agents forced open a door and detained a U.S. citizen in his Minnesota home at gunpoint without a warrant, then led him out onto the streets in his underwear in subfreezing conditions, according to his family and videos reviewed by The Associated Press.
Utter complicity.
More unaccountable thuggery, via the AP Twitter account. After being screamed at not to knee him in the face, the agent...knees him in the face again. See for yourself
