The internet suppression is real. Remember kids, the internet was invented by the military, for the military.

Since the government is about to introduce a social media ban for under-16s based largely on vibes – and Jonathan Haidt's shitty book – in the hopes it boosts its popularity (it won't), I'll re-up this.

If we're banning under-16s, why not over-60s?
On almost everything – fraud, polarisation, radicalisation, misinformation – evidence suggests that over 60s are in much more urgent need of online protection and education than teenagers.

But that issue gets zero political attention, and is a total non-starter. Nothing good will come of it.
This was a minor story on London news this morning - but suspect is a real cautionary (and alarming) tale of an older man getting radicalised online.

Ghislaine Maxwell, a convicted child sex trafficker, gets gardening time, sports, therapy dogs, and spa products in prison.

Migrant children in custody are sleeping on concrete floors without enough food or clean water.

Our priorities are so fucked.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage.

The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.”

It’s about control.

ProPublica received eight handwritten letters from children who have been held at the detention center that 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramos was recently released from.

We'll let their words speak for themselves.

Great piece.

"Nearly everyone involved in the fight to cancel DRIPA is a realtor, a yacht owner, or both."

They have us too busy fighting each other, we don't notice they are the ones responsible for the cost of living crisis, the climate crisis, the housing crisis...
This is my favourite essay I've written. About a group of realtors and yachters on the Sunshine Coast who are suing the Province to overturn the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples Act (DRIPA).

It’s disheartening the response to the Tumbler Ridge tragedy stops at “more mental health supports.” So-called mental illness often arises from unjust conditions. The mental health industry isn’t prevention. Had children’s rights been centered, this tragedy could have been prevented.

After watching Bondi’s performance in Congress. I don’t think it’s fair that Republicans expect their kids have manners or be kind. You can’t expect less from kids than you allow from leaders.

The tragedy in Tumbler Ridge is horrific. The calls for more mental health supports is half-assed. While needed, it’s a colonial prescription. To stop trauma in the first place means enshrining child rights into every law, regulation and policy in Canada.

Epstein survivor Haley Robson: I’m so tired of having this administration just completely dismiss us. They’re supposed to be the party of, you know, family values and protecting children. And I just feel like if that’s the party you are, it seems like Thomas Massie is the only one showing up for it.

I have a BA and MA in Justice and considering the state of the world, I cannot stop thinking that it just may be time to reconsider whether religion should remain a fundamental right at all.
