And their criminal politicians try to tell 🇨🇦s the 🇺🇸 system is better. They truly believe we’re fucking morons.

Let’s fundraise for a wall!

Extremely well written. May be or just a regular minion like me who writes a ton for work and took the time to capture their thoughts. Either way, as you said - very well written!

No idea who the author of the Reddit post below is but they absolutely NAILED 🇺🇸 c.2025.

A must read.

ICE Homeland Security deputizing bounty hunters and paying them per “illegal”??!!

Awful headline. Did a non-EN speaking editor write it?

Dumpster Fire: Scott Moe’s Legacy of Evasion Amid Denare Beach Disaster The Premier's arrogance, absence, and political cover-ups betrayed wildfire victims while ordinary Saskatchewan residents demonstrated what leadership really means.

I see very clearly what’s happening. Don’t put words in my mouth.

No way! Odd. I’m sorry. It opened and was accessible for me.

Just another reason why I won’t waste my time or money in 🇺🇸. Because dealing with MAGAts isn’t bad enough, now let’s have to deal with White South Africans on vacation. Ummm, nope. I’ve seen Musk. No interest in encountering more like him.

I presume you’re referring to DoFo?

Excellent article and it’s not behind a paywall.

Yes. I am. Did I say he should? I said what’s he’s done doesn’t qualify as “standing up to him” and I stand by that.

I went to a bilingual university (as a native EN speaker I was required to take FR 🥰)

I literally lived on poutine in university. Was the best thing available in the cafeteria!

Another great thread 🧵 by Derek!

Want to learn about unions and their U.S. history, read on.

A cartoon showing a man between a white construction worker and a black man. He points to the black man and says "Careful mate ... that foreigner wants your cookie" The man in the middle has a plate full of cookies; the construction worker has one cookie; the black man has no cookies.

I'm pro-union because I think workers should organize to balance the power that business owners have in various negotiations. It's true that unions have been weakened, but it's not because of multiculturalism. I would argue, it's because people seek to exploit divisions for their material interests.

New York Times headline reads: Trump Hotel Workers Campaign for a Union, Over the Boss's Objections

New York Times headline reads: Trump Moves to Strip More Federal Workers of Union Protections.

But his assertion that diversity weakens unions ignores two things. First, labor unions have a long history of multiethnic coalitions. Second, it was the capitalists and political elites who tried to *exploit* ethnic divisions to maintain power. There is only one person here trying to stop unions:

A drawing of coal miners wearing red bandanas.

In this moment, coal miners turned their red bandanas into a symbol of solidarity — both to distinguish themselves from the enemy and to show that, across racial lines, coal miners were united along class interests

For this reason, they were known as the "Redneck Army."

Early 20th century headline reads: Race War in Coal Fields is Imminent.

At the time, coal operators and their political allies conspired to pit workers against each other along racial lines. They segregated housing and work assignments; used Black and immigrant workers as strikebreakers; and tried to discredit organizers as “socialists” or tools of a "Negro uprising."

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.

Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

I wouldn’t call what Carney’s done “standing up to him” and not a peep on the extrajudicial assassinations. 🤬

Donald Trump and Peter Hegseth have now murdered 57 human beings on their boats in the Caribbean and the Pacific.

That means they've passed Seattle's "Green River Killer" (49) to become the most lethal serial killers in American history

Where is The Hague?

The goal of the “free trade” agreements was never to free trade. As big business stressed, what they really wanted was freedom for capital. Freedom of business organizations to invest in any country without government interference and the freedom to repatriate their profits as they so wished.
