people whose job is to deal directly with the lies and violence police perpetrate against marginalized groups do not like police, news at 11

CTV got rid of @rachelgilmore.bsky.social because an email inbox got too full. It only gave her more time to discover and expose rot.

It's breathtaking to watch autocrats weaponize the civil rights movement on behalf of the putative safety of Jews in order to send people who are opposing genocide to literal death camps - and Jews who oppose this are labelled terrorist sympathizers.

Poilievre pledges to use notwithstanding clause to allow longer sentences for multiple murderers Legal experts criticized the Conservative Leader’s proposal to revive a law that permitted judges to stack parole waiting periods

The Columbia Network Pushing Behind the Scenes to Deport and Arrest Student Protesters For some members of the “Columbia Alumni for Israel” WhatsApp group, speaking out for Palestine and criticizing Israel are tantamount to supporting Hamas.

"Some members of the Columbia University community leapt at the chance to get young people they claim are 'supporters of Hamas' detained and deported. Several people on a large WhatsApp group, Columbia Alumni for Israel—with over 1K members, incl parents & Columbia professors—welcomed Trump’s plan."

It is wild that “free speech” has been redefined to mean “explicit government viewpoint discrimination” with so little pushback

Anyone in Ontario able to provide some knowledge here?
