This is literally what I've been writing and podcasting about for years. I was planning to do an essay on this, but here's a 🧵.

The main reason is psychology. Due to personal, family, and cultural histories, some people are inherently scared of the world.
Fight and help win a world war.

Establish a global order that cements your national power for 80 years.

Blow it all up.

What am I missing?

This is objectively reckless and insane.
While the U.S. is actively weakening the FDA, Canada is preparing to stop doing its own drug reviews and defer to foreign regulators.

So here's a question that just occurred to me. Given all the stupid crap Doug Ford is foisting on Ontario...the spa, the tunnel, the Ferris wheel, the underwater power line...the general assumption is that he's corrupt. But is it possible he's just a sucker? A rube? An easy mark? Maybe both, obv.

With this list of Minnesota labor and community orgs this is REAL. Not internet randos repeating a meme.
Unions and community orgs are calling for a Minnesota-wide shutdown in 10 days to protest the ferocious assault by federal immigration agents. They're saying on Jan 23, no work, no school, no shopping. SEIU Local 26, UNITE HERE Local 17, & others are supporting, w/ more to join. By me, Amie Stager

I’m not doing this thing where we start accepting bullshit BEFORE THE PRIMARY because “we gotta get trump out and what if you say something in the primary that might hurt somebody in the general.” VBNMW *HAS NOT WORKED.*

Enough with the bitchassedness. I’m not doing it again.

Do we really think that a Canadian government that can't find the moral clarity to act against a child abuse platform will resist a multi-pronged American assault on Canadian sovereignty?

a) One of the weapons of creeping totalitarianism is insistence that "truth is what we say it is".

b) Resistance to that requires a commitment to verifiable truth.

c) STOP CITING LLM SLOP AS FACT.

The "plausible-sounding answers" machine is NOT a source of truth.

🧵In my expert opinion as a researcher of vehicle ramming attacks, what has been publicly described in the video evidence does not support the claim that Renee Nicole Good was attempting a deliberate ramming attack when she was shot in Minneapolis on January 7, 2026. 1/7

I don't know who needs to hear this, but cops are not allowed to shoot people just because you didn't do what they said.

That is called murder when they do that.

Some cops are working hard to convince people otherwise.

Good grief I really need to build up more community connections in real space, doing something actually constructive.

I spend a lot of time shouting into the wind online because who doesn't want to be heard? Then every few months or so the sheer futility of that crashes down.

Canada, like other western states, is worried about alienating Trump. But that just invites isolation next time, when it's your turn over the barrel, and everyone else stays silent for fear of alienating Trump.

Democracies worthy of the name must stand together for the rule of law, or fall apart.

A lot of people forget how in 2004 the Bush regime kidnapped the democratically elected President of Haiti, Jean-Bertrand Aristide, and dumped him in Africa.
Is there any modern precedent for abducting a head of state?

Plenty of examples of coups, assassinations and domestic trials, including show trials, but this is like a Crusader Kings plot.

I am 2 jobs deep on quitting jobs due to moral issues. I am transgender; the job market is exceedingly bad for us; and I still did it. I am in a shitty underpaid job right now because of my last one.
