It was unhinged.

*Jivani

Jamil Javani at his victory party — and he’s just whining aggressively about Doug Ford and his “goons”.

This exemplifies so much of what’s wrong with the Poilievre conservatives / Maple MAGA.

Grievance is all they’ve got.

Complaining and victimhood without end.

What a sore winner.

A few thoughts:
• poilievre’s riding had the most advanced voting in the country
• that riding was allowed to start counting ~6 hours early
• PP is down significantly so far vs Fanjoy

Could signal that as more advanced votes get added to vote counts across the country it will favour the Libs

@althiaraj.bsky.social “we weren’t allowed to ask follow-up questions” the sassssss 😂 I love it.

This is true, but Mark Carney is also independently awesome.

Ranked ballots would end this.

So would strategic voting.

Goddammit

This kind of thing drives me nuts

This is insane and everyone involved needs to be sued into oblivion and then go directly to jail

Worth a watch.

@mark-carney.bsky.social is calm, thoughtful, nuanced.

A serious leader for serious times.

And the comments on the video suggest a LOT of people feel the same way.

I was proud to vote for my local Liberal candidate yesterday to support Mark Carney for PM.

Quick reminder:

Malevolence & incompetence are not mutually exclusive explanations.

For Trump & co, they’re more like comorbidities.

... they have to believe that the city is a mythical hellhole, because they can look around and see that their own kids are on meth or heroin, so the city must be *so much worse*

conversely, the second you give in to him on anything, he senses weakness and keeps demanding more and more

the only viable response to Trump is to loudly and fully stand up to him from the start - whatever consequences he is able to impose will pale in comparison to giving in

Donald J. Trump @realDonald Trump Everyone knows that Harvard has "lost its way." They hired, from New York (Bill D) and Chicago (Lori L), at ridiculously high salaries/fees, two of the WORST and MOST INCOMPETENT mayors in the history of our Country, to "teach" municipal management and government. These two Radical Left fools left behind two cities that will take years to recover from their incompetence and evil. Harvard has been hiring almost all woke, Radical Left, idiots and "birdbrains" who are only capable of teaching FAILURE to students and so-called "future leaders." Look just to the recent past at their plagiarizing President, who so greatly embarrassed Harvard before the United States States Congress. When it got so bad that they just couldn't take it anymore, they moved this grossly inept woman into another position, teaching, rather than firing her ON THE SPOT. Since then much else has been found out about her, but she remains in place. Many others, like these Leftist dopes, are teaching at Harvard, and because of that, Harvard can no longer be considered even a decent place of learning, and should not be considered on any list of the World's Great Universities or Colleges. Harvard is a JOKE, teaches Hate and Stupidity, and should no longer receive Federal Funds. Thank you for your attention to this matter! 6.96k ReTruths 29.3k Likes Apr 16, 2025 at 7:05 AM

Trump’s sputtering response to Harvard standing up to him is yet another reason why institutions should refuse to bend the knee. He’s a paper tiger, unable to argue his own case.

Which… people are also not really ready to think about (and USians shouldn’t really discuss online anyway)

Ah gotcha.

Very good q.

I lean towards: as required, but within the bounds of int’l law (which I’d have to refresh on).

I’m also interested in the q of what constitutes legitimate / moral resistance to the regime at different thresholds / given different events / in different countries.

Exercised by whom?

Not sure who needs to hear this, but:

Poil = hair
Lièvre = hare

It’s not capitulation or giving in to take moments for yourself and find what joy you can. part of fascisms power is to burn you out and make it so you cannot and will not engage further. Finding momentary joy or peace is crucial to not just resisting fascism, but surviving it. 2/2
