Fascism is not a mental illness and the sooner some of you figure that out the better off we'll all be.

I wish people would stop predicting shit like this before there is even the chance to see if it’s anything more than words
“.. Carney .. gave a magnificently powerful speech before the gathered elites that will be discussed many years from now. Decades, likely.”

Carney should have given that speech directly to the UN not at Davos

Taking it to the heart of the problem would have been much more meaningful

Democratic leaders need to fear being branded as collaborators more than they fear being called soft on crime

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

Looking forward to Mike Johnson telling reporters he was too busy to see anything happening in Davos.

I truly get why Americans are pointing out that other countries are the pot calling the kettle black

All of us also have histories of colonialism that are still ongoing

But the implication is often that we shouldn’t speak at all while the US wreaks havoc with the global economy

Remember that show Dark Angel with Jessica Alba, where the US collapses and Canada emerges as the new world power

That's how people are talking about Mark Carney's speech

which seems a little unlikely

I'll believe it when I see countries actually really start negotiating around the US

He promised this when he launched his campaign but played the submissive for months

What might have been if he had taken this tack from day 1. If Trump had been given a firm no from the start of his petty trade wars.
Carney to Europeans + other middle powers: “When we only negotiate bilaterally with a hegemon, we negotiate from weakness. We accept what’s offered. We compete with each other to be the most accommodating. This is not sovereignty. It’s the performance of sovereignty while accepting subordination.”
“We are taking the sign out of the window. The old order is not coming back. We should not mourn it. Nostalgia is not a strategy. But from the fracture, we can build something better, stronger, and more just. This is the task of the middle powers.”

Considering what he just said at the World Economic Forum, I sincerely doubt he is buying into Trump’s protection racket

He’s not been meeting the moment but this was a stretch even for him

Reporters need to learn when “maybe” almost certainly means no
Canada must not do this. It is a mockery of international political governance, legitimizing the idea that Trump can simply push aside other countries' sovereignty.

Disabled people don’t survive without community care. So for us to be considered worth surviving, that’s building a world where we all survive by supporting each other.
It should click for you how many who ask for mutual aid online are disabled. Disabled people are likely to be in poverty & isolation. Disability makes life under capitalism precarious. That’s why disability justice is intertwined with getting rid of capitalism & why mutual aid is disability justice.

My siblings just admitted to a decades long campaign of isolation and abuse based entirely on the fact that I’m disabled (it goes without saying they didn’t realize this is what they were admitting to because of course to them it seemed completely reasonable)

I desperately need help right now

My sister Heather just kept calling me “unsafe” without any context and that this vague “unsafety” means she had to be emotionally abusive

Which is already indefensible but I just kept calling it a bigoted conspiracy until she got annoyed and “clarified” that it was I was mean to her as a child

As if maintaining a decades long hate campaign for something a child did is not also unhinged

So she’s hated me for decades because she bullied me into a meltdown and created an entire victim narrative about it

Reposted by Wren Ashe Frey (she/they)
Because she has convinced herself that I’m basically a demon she of course in the middle of this unhinged admission accused me of reveling in her suffering

Her entirely self manufactured suffering

Laura was the first to realize that they were not coming across as the benevolent long suffering siblings, they somehow believed themselves to be.

Up until this point they’d been very clear that any actual relationship was impossible and I’d only lobbied for basic common courtesy

So completely out of nowhere she goes

“If we are ever to have a relationship you have to understand that we are only human and will continue to make mistakes and you have to realize that you have also said some hurtful things and that will have to change if we are ever to move forward”

So, basically “we will continue to treat you like shit but you can’t call us out on it”

Still trying to make me equally responsible for their abuse of me.

Which I pointed out
