Poso is a reliable indicator of whatever fuckery is going on because he has essentially no other content. On Jan 15, 2022, he started posting about Ukrainian territorial integrity, then changed his handle to "minor incursion Poso" wearing a hammer and sickle. A month later the invasion was on. 2/

Everyone should know the very useful and reliable "Posometer" for current events: whatever Jack Posobiec is pushing, that is the latest disinfo campaign. Poso posting about Ukrainian territory in 2022? Get ready for an invasion. Poso posting about Albertan secession? It's a paid operation. 1/

The Trump Administration Comes for Alberta The country must respond to this flagrant violation of Canadian sovereignty

New post: the US administration has inserted itself into Canada's internal affairs. This is a clear violation of Canadian sovereignty, and an indicator of things to come.

Canada, and Canadians must respond.

Donald Trump’s so-called β€œBoard of Peace” is a joke. The man behind it has kidnapped the President of Venezuela, launched illegal military strikes, and threatened to take Greenland by force. And the invited members are a who’s who of human rights abusers.

With so many of us watching the tremendous mobilizations in Minneapolis, culminating in the call to action against ICE today, I wanted to share some of what I have gathered from talking to comrades in Minneapolis over the past few weeks. A few things stood out:

CBS: Trump leaves NATO allies "dumbfounded" and "disgusted" with remarks dismissing sacrifices in Afghanistan

CBS: Trump leaves NATO allies "dumbfounded" and "disgusted" with remarks dismissing sacrifices in Afghanistan

More than 1,000 troops from NATO allies died alongside American servicemembers in Afghanistan.

The only time Article V has ever been invoked was after 9/11, and NATO came to our aid without hesitation.

To minimize the sacrifice of our allies' fallen heroes is disgusting.

I’ve said it so many times since the start of this lawless Trump regime. It behaves absolutely no differently than if every single member were Kremlin assets. The Trump regime is a Putin allied autocracy. Read up on psychopathy, because it will serve you well in understanding this regime. #NATO

Hey Wired, do you want to maybe fucking mention that they're also now collecting information like your sexual orientation, whether or not your trans, and your citizenship and immigration status?

Kinda burying the lede with "Oh no they're tracking your location" like every fucking app does.

I deleted TikTok back when the Oracle purchase was announced but if you've still got it, you GOTTA dump it. Especially for trans folks. It straight up says in the new TOS that they--Oracle, the company that has active ties to the Trump admin--are monitoring and documenting trans and NB users.

Hey, push your PM to cancel King Chuck’s state visit here! Push him to initiate economic sanctions on the US. Do your part as a consumer, follow the lead of Canadians and boycott US products & entertainment. I say this as an American, knowing the hurt it’ll put on our economy.

SpaceX's Starlink dodged 300,000 collisions in 2025.

That's nearly 40 maneuvers per satellite, and it's rising fast – possibly hitting 1 million maneuvers in 2027.
