I don't need everyone to agree with me. I don't want people who are different from me to be alienated/singled out/attacked. I don't want people to beg, or go broke to be warm/fed/safe/healthy.
I was raised with these values, they are who I am.
How did Conservatives miss this growing up in Canada?

There isn’t anything about Alberta politics that reflects normal Canadian discourse. It’s as if the worse elements of MAGA actually set the agenda of the UCP government. Making Alberta an outlier and more angry, more ignorant, more intolerant & more American than Canadian seems to be the objective .

Not one Russian oligarch has the wherewithall to put up any legal fight in a real court room. They're tapped out by their mob boss, Putin. They have no liquid cash, and their whining like little bitches just proves it, filthy drunks in the gutter threatening to sue people on their way to work.

This cruel racism has been fed and developed for generations, and is now part of the social infrastructure of Israel. There is no off ramp, no justice. The Nazis had to be completely destroyed before they stopped killing Europe’s Jews.

They can’t even hear how pathetic and obsequious they are. That’s the truly bizarre part. Their whole identities and their futures financial survival now depend on this lowlife sack of hate and stupidity. He’d throw each and everyone of them under the bus, to save his old spray tanned hide, so fast.
Whatever you think of these people, this is so cringe. 😬

The thing to understand about fascism is that most people you know will be bought off. Bought with promises of peace and stability, bought with business opportunities or paid with actual cash. Most people aren't going to resist. Get used to it and get used to operating in that environment.

This is why Canada needs Mark Carney running this country through this constant BS. He is focused on the big picture, expanding trade relations and has so much respect from leaders around the world. Trump cannot be trusted to act in good faith ever. Keep calm and Carney on! #cdnpoli
The rest of the world knows what time it is. Only American voters are clueless.
Carney: "We can't control the trade policy of the US. We recognize it has fundamentally changed from the policy in the 1980s, 1990s, 2000s, & it's a situation where US has tariffs against every trading partner... what we we can control is developing new partnerships, including w/econ giants of Asia"

Nothing, and I mean absolutely zero has changed about Tr**p. He’s as much of an extortionist and a racist gas bag as he was in the 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 10s and now. 60 years of this asshole. Yet, America can’t get f**ked hard enough to realize they’re the patsy in the biggest grift in human history.
