Some thoughts about the President of the United States speaking about ending a civilization. The president speaks genocide. Anyone who has been involved in that conversation or associated actions would be complicit. And so we too must speak. Not only about crimes, but about their legal punishment.

What books did Alberta schools *actually* pull off the shelves in response to a provincial order? It took a lot of work to find out. We still don't have a complete picture. And some schools are still pulling material.
Free speech advocates say it's ban unmatched in Canadian history. #AbLeg By me.
Donald Smith is in Vancouver & attending Ken Sim's pressers.
Smith has been filming around downtown & DTES recently. He feeds information about "antifa" to an individual that seems to work with the Diagolon/Second Sons crew who also spins QAnon-level conspiracies about "antifa."
