THAT'S NOT HOW SCIENCE FUCKING WORKS YOU FUCKING IMBECILES! THE NULL HYPOTHESIS IS THAT VACCINES DON'T CAUSE AUTISM AND SCIENCE HAS REPEATEDLY FAILED TO REJECT THAT HYPOTHESIS WHILE FAILING TO FIND ANY EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THE ALTERNATIVE HYPOTHESIS!!

Jesus fuck! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!
The U.S. government is now inarguably spreading medical disinformation that is going to kill babies preferentially.

Period.

This is an INTOLERABLE. UNPRECEDENTED. DANGEROUS. ATTACK. ON ALL OF US.

Once again, Alberta’s UCP Government plans to suspend Charter Rights of Albertans.

First to attack teachers’ rights, now trans youth.

The Justice Minister proudly said his voice is the final voice on this matter.

It is not. The voice of the people is the final voice.

Plz RT

I've used different adjectives (lazy, impatient, vengeful), but these are equally valid theories.
Use of the notwithstanding clause is a betrayal of the duty of a government to its people. If you can't enact your agenda without violating the rights of your citizens, you are either stupid and unimaginative or vicious and cruel.

Good morning.

If you live in Alberta, you should know that today your government will invoke the notwithstanding clause to wage war against transgender Albertans.

Not because transgender persons are harmful, but because the UCP is distracting you from their mountain of failures.

No one “turned on white dudes”. We turned on people acquiring power through corruption, clinging to it with violence,using it to justify racism, misogyny, sexual abuse and economic injustice. And since not all white duded are like this, it must not be the “white” or the “dude” that is the problem.

Just as the BLM movement showed us who is actually racist, and the MeToo movement showed us who is actually misogynist, the reaction to the Epstein Files is showing us who actually
