/s <- you dropped this

That’s a reasonable thing to say, but not to trans people who are being actively persecuted by the US government. I cannot imagine how difficult it must be in that situation and it is the responsibility of society to stand up for trans people.

Your local grocery store wherever possible.

His motorcade arrived but was held up at the gates.

Hey guise we should really be celebrating the US army and George Washington!

Garbage take. Celebrate neither. Do protest, but not in celebration of the horrendous slaveowner politician or the military which has been an imperial menace for generations and is now being used to threaten neighbouring countries.

Impeachment is hopium at this point. You’ve tried it already and it pains me to say that it’s not looking like you’ll be able to vote your way out of this one either. You need more solidarity, more people protesting, and more more mutual aid and support networks to help each other get through this.

It should be directed towards the state, not the people. That’s something we struggle with in Canada too, and generalising all the people in a country only benefits MAGA. We need solidarity in the face of fascism.

Seeing a pixelfed post federate to Lemmy is so cool.

I thought that was Mr. Bean for a sec. No disrespect to Mr. Bean.

Our FPTP electoral system enables and encourages majority governments on a minority of votes.

Poilievre was on track to this exact scenario which was narrowly avoided by an unprecedented reversal in Canadian politics.

Regardless of your opinion on the party, we then nearly handed the Liberal party a majority on a minority of votes too and effectively turned parliament into a two-party system by gutting the NDP to avoid a conservative government (vote splitting and strategic voting are also encouraged by FPTP).

Our FPTP electoral system enables and encourages majority governments on a minority of votes.

This was narrowly avoided by an unprecedented reversal in Canadian politics in the 11th hour.

Edit: I also improved the title.

Fuck tankies too. Many Canadians are understandably concerned that a guy slightly to the right of the status quo which gave rise to Poilievre is not going to make anything better for us.

To be fair, we basically just elected a Biden-style neoliberal who is slightly to the right of Trudeau. As affordability continues to gradually decline, our Trump (Poilievre) or a similar guy will be even more empowered. We’re basically a few years behind the USA right now and your right are actively trying to speed it up.

I think this is a great idea but Reddit heavily censors Lemmy links and would probably remove the comment.

I see Canadians in the 4th panel lol

Carhartt’s billionaire CEO can pressure the Trump regime to stop attacking our sovereignty if they want the boycott to end.

In the meantime, I have no concern for Carhartt’s bottom line when we have Big Bill and Tough Duck as alternatives.

When in doubt, listen

Downvoted for considering systemic racism “a distraction”. Consider a “yes, and” next time.
