This is what I'm referring to — they are grooming the electorate to vote for dictatorship.

Democracy is messy.
Democracy is inconvenient. Democracy is disagreement.

What he’s describing as “unity” is authoritarian control.

One person issues an order, dissent is suppressed, and compliance is enforced.

If you want unanimity by decree, you don’t want unity, you want obedience.👇

The Hoax of Christmas Present Polling and focus group data show voters across parties feel crushed by rising costs, even as Trump dismisses affordability concerns as a “hoax” that contradicts Americans’ lived reality.

"By shouting things like 'our prices are coming down tremendously,' Trump is telling voters to 'reject the evidence of their eyes and ears.' But this is 2025, not 1984, and voters aren’t buying it."

#DeFactoDictatorship, right?

So, the likes of noem should be compelled to prove that she *isn't* a sociopath.

#DeFactoDictatorship

Corollary: leaving behind the trumpist lunatic clown posse, Ma crossed the aisle to join a de facto conservative government.
🤷🏻‍♀️

Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He's flailing on the economy. Epstein haunts him. Republicans are beginning to revolt against him.

He's not all powerful.

A tyrant can exercise tyranny only insofar as the objects of his tyranny continue to allow it.

Remember this.

The solution, of course, is #VirusFreeAirNow, which, in this age of the much touted disruptor, remains just too disruptive to contemplate...
🤦🏻‍♂️

Remember there is no reason for alarm. You can easily protect yourself with a well-fitted respirator. Back it up with air filtration and vaccination.

Covid is airborne
Flu is airborne

Open windows ventilate
Clean the Air

screengrab from https://bccdc.shinyapps.io/respiratory_pathogen_characterization/. Graphics of test pos charts (LOL, no axes labeled) showing Flu A at 13.8%, up 6.4%; Flu B 0.3%, up 0.1%; RSV 3.5%, up 0.7%; SARS-CoV-2 (COVID) 3.8%, down 0.4%

Oof. Flu A taking off like a rocket in #bcpoli (as predicted, but who needs prevention from @governmentofbc.bsky.social, amitrite?!).

Flu A test ~2X in 1 wk, from 7.4% to 13.8%
COVID going down, RSV up a bit, but still LOTS of both around.

#FluIsAirborne. Get your vax asap AND #MaskUp.

@gamahealthcare.bsky.social

So, you guys have killed and buried the Redihood (bubble papr) tech, yes? I mean, since there is absolutely no evidence that you intend to bring it to market, you all might as "fess up" — stringing us along is getting to be a little cruel...
🤷🏻‍♀️

There's been no "more definitive information" forthcoming to contravene this guidance. So, again, even as we lose once-staunch #VirusFreeAir allies to vax&relax defeatism, how do we get past the droplet dogma gatekeepers? Anyone?

How do these people live with themselves?

Guidance from the study authors:

“Although more research will be needed...we recommend that, IN ACCORDANCE w/the PRECAUTIONARY PRINCIPLE, guidelines for respiratory protective equipment are further revised until more definitive information is available.”

HC decision-makers everywhere prefer the shambolic Cochrane review to...

"Once FFP3 respirators were introduced, the number of cases attributed to exposure on Covid wards dropped dramatically – in fact, OUR MODEL SUGGESTS that FFP3 respirators may have cut6 WARD-BASED INFECTION to ZERO.”

Sadly, from the "we reject our own research" files:

"Non-clinical and clinical areas are NO LONGER REQUIRED to wear surgical masks.

Some clinical areas...will still require masks...

SURGICAL MASKS will continue to be provided...for visitors who wish to continue to use them."

Needs more than a letter.

The greater the privilege, the greater the onus for meaningful action, and "Harvard professor" is dripping with privilege.

Hidden infections may play a key role in driving long COVID symptoms For millions suffering from long COVID, their persistent breathlessness, brain fog and fatigue remain a maddening mystery, but a group of leading microbiologists think they may have cracked the case.

www.news-medical.net/news/2025121... Anyone recall how many years ago I said C19 appeared to be reactivating TB?

They’ve picked up on the concept.

And remember what it looks like when we almost had #VirusFreeAir? It's that little bump at the left...

Would also be a vast improvement over chuck...
👍

Would we could get equivalent work done for #VirusFreeAir...
🤷🏻‍♀️🤞

mRNA COVID vaccines tied to drop in death rate for 4 years

A large national cohort study from France didn’t observe any increase in all-cause mortality in adults up to four years after receipt of a COVID mRNA vaccine, and vaccination was linked to a 74% lower risk of death from severe COVID-19 and a 25% lower risk of death from any cause.

Which is to say, the non-trumpists in loyal opposition are probably quite genuine in feeling like they're more directly aligned with Carney's policies — undoubtedly, they chafe under the maple-maga lunacy, and are drawn towards what they see as more like the PCs under Joe Clark.

Musings...
🤘

Jurisdiction-shopping is #DeFactoDictatorship.

Hey, how about we try that #VirusFreeAirNow idea?
🤷🏻‍♀️

I have no illusion: we elected a de facto conservative government in order to keep the idiot trumpist and his gang of merry grifters from power. It's a brand-shift akin to BC, where the NDP are now wholly centrist.

Canadian progressives need to get our shit together...

#Solidarity

*That *is* how a #DeFactoDictatorship works.
