PP is not just cosplaying Trump here. There are things he doesn’t think Canadians deserve to know.

Trump pretending not to back PP is not even good pretending. Kinda wish the CBC didn’t go fall for it though. #elbowsUpCanada

P.E.I. man refuses to pay his power bill until Maritime Electric can explain why it's so high | CBC News Many Islanders have taken to social media of late to raise questions about inexplicably highΒ power bills, and to try and find some solutions.

Good man, taking a stand against gouging:

Algorithmic silencing of dissenting voices while blasting users with propaganda is apparently very lucrative. I wonder if it’s still lucrative once the permission to fight back is gone?

Watching Americans make satire about their democracy falling apart is honestly unsatisfying. Where are the people who raced to rebuild their Navy after Pearl, who sacrificed to save Europe? Or would those things have not happened if y’all had had social media?

Riiiiiight fucking teetering. PP is Harper but cowardly. And: Propaganda works. 90% of Canadian media is owned by American oligarchs. Social media is basically a giant misinformation funnel. We need a goddamn revolutionary citizen response and I’m not confident we can generate one.

There’s so much bullshit online and I feel bad for the kids who have to swim through the lies every day while they’re figuring out who they are. My generation just picked a favorite rock band and made that their identity. Nowadays a hundred apps are trying to keep you angry to sell you something.
