Where does Canada stand in a war between the US & NATO with Greenland, a territory with which we share a land border as the spark? Do we break with NATO and hope not to ‘poke the bear’ at which time we become the defacto 51st state or do we side with NATO and potentially become the frontline?
personally this feels like it's bad

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

a lot of people think the cops should be allowed to shoot you dead if you disrespect them. No word on what you should be allowed to do when the cops disrespect you.

“Uruguay did what most nations still call impossible: it built a power grid that runs almost entirely on renewables—at half the cost of fossil fuels. The physicist who led that transformation says the same playbook could work anywhere—if governments have the courage to change the rules.”

Of the likes of Martha Hall Findlay, Sonya Savage & Gitane De Silva reflect the thoughts and opinions of thought leaders at the commanding heights of the Canadian economy we are well & truly fucked. Terminally screwed.
The only question is how soon to pull the trigger & get off this sinking ship.

The logic the domestic batterer applies to their preferred scapegoat
The reactionary centrist logic is simple: if the left does something bad it’s the left’s fault, and if the right does something bad, it’s also the left’s fault for making them do it. It’s a simple formula and once you see it every one of their arguments is the same

If this becomes a giant lawsuit, "Donald J Trump should be allowed to rule over us like a syphilitic Mad King" versus "predatory lenders should be allowed to fuck over the little guy at every turn" is possibly the only way you could get Samuel Alito to understand why Sophie's Choice was a tragedy

Not an exaggeration at all to say that the feeling in Minneapolis is that the entire metro area is being treated as occupied territory by federal agents. Impossible to overstate how overwhelmingly people here do not like it. This does not feel sustainable.

The defense of ICE shooting unarmed Women for trying to drive away hinges on an argument that Women are supposed to just let armed men kidnap them and any action taken to prevent that justifies being executed in the street.

Mainstream news focus on low-level crimes targeted by security forces is one of the ways that unequal, destructive societies distract people from the far greater harms perpetrated by powerful people. They distort who we fear, and they distort how urgently we fear them.
