We need answers about what happened on Alderaan and assurances from the Empire that it won’t happen again.

Misinformation ads on YouTube front page with photoshopped fictitious images of Mark Carney

Misinformation ads on YouTube front page with photoshopped fictitious images of Mark Carney

Shameful that Google allows such blatant misinformation ad campaigns to feature prominently on the YouTube front page.

Is there zero oversight in managing online ads these days?

That's precisely what all the Trump apologists fail to see.

The current US administration is not only upsetting goodwill towards Americans in allied nations; it's decimating any trust held by all countries.

First, USAID, then all the crazy deportations, and now the VOA. Bye-bye American soft power

Whitewashing American history The Trump Presidency as a project of erasure

New, from me:

Trump is whitewashing American history, removing not just people, but also the stories, images, and values to anyone who does not conform to his impoverished vision of America.

Here is a partial inventory. 🧡

Canada, speaking as a non-citizen student, it's *Time for you to Build*

And please do a good job this time. Fix what needs to be fixed, be a land of opportunity, but don't let internationals continue to be exploited (nor let them exploit you).

(And also step up to the bullies down south.)
