Oh wow hi new followers, welcome along on this long, strange trip we call life.

I'm Revontulet, I'm an Aquarius, I immigrated to Canada nearly 15 years ago from the US, I like photography, cooking, house/bass music, stories about your cats, & playing Diablo 4. I'm learning to DJ & make bad mashups.

One of the worst things that our absolute lickspittle shitheel of a Prime Minister did was get rid of the tax on yachts.

This is why you don’t put economists in charge of a country. Whether they have a doctorate or not. They try to run it like a business.

Newsflash: it’s not.

I am so fucking tired of watching rich people being given a pass and not having to pay what they rightfully owe for the exploitation of labour and resources that they cost society.

Most of these rich fucks do not pay taxes. If they do, it is not enough.

Tax the fuck out of them.

I honestly have never been so ashamed to be from Canada. And I lived through the Harper government. I lived through Mulroney. And Joe Clark, and Kim Campbell.

I am ashamed of the fact that this government has turned its back on everything that the current governing party stands for.

As I said, I generally try to refrain from talking about US politics at all, because I’m Canadian and the crazy cuckoo mess that is going on down there generally has nothing to do with me.

But given what just happened in Venezuela, I feel like we need to talk about some history.

It’s not just the fact that America can unilaterally inflict death and terror on whomever it wants to in the world, that gets under the skin. No, it’s Americans’ insistence, while the bodies are still warm, that you feel bad for them.

📷 The “Arbeit macht frei” gate of the Auschwitz I camp. The inscription over the gate, which meant “work makes one free”, was a cynical promise and a lie given to all the prisoners who entered the camp.

the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

It's this but then the exterminator sends you text messages asking for more money every 3 hours for the rest of your life

Like, the nazi pedophile *obviously* has a corroded and fucked up soul, you can tell because he's a nazi and a pedophile. It's pretty obvious.

But what about the guy who looks at him and sincerely can't imagine there are things that could be *wildly* improved, things easily achievable.

Imagine looking at the previous president, gleefully engaging in a genocide he'd advocated for his entire miserable life, at the current president gleefully being an absolute fucking slime mold, and truly not being able to imagine what a better future would look like.

Think about how fucking corroded your soul would have to be to look at this administration of nazis and pedophiles and truly think that better things are not possible.

That there are not fucking *orders of magnitude* of improvement possible. That this, now, is at all close to doing the best we can

Based on some Canadian commentary re: America's kidnapping of a foreign leader, it would appear there's a non-zero chance some Canucks would have answered the knocked door - and pointed the SS straight to their secret attic.

the good news about our current international predicament is that, just like with the iraq war, if enough people online point out it's illegal they'll have to immediately cancel the war and withdraw all the troops

babe wake up, they're doing insider trading on war crimes
“What appears to be a newly created account appeared to invest $30,000 Friday in Maduro's exit. After Maduro went into custody Saturday morning, that same investor netted $436,759.61.”
Someone made $400K by predicting Maduro's capture. Here's what happened
The winnings come as the rules governing prediction markets are still evolving.

Impeach

Them

All
SLIM!!!! You're speaking the same language as I am. But for me, it's more. It's "go pass go" and go straight to the removal of all heads of departmental agencies from the top on down, including the POTUS & VP and every single cabinet member! FWYH!!!
To say I'm sick of it, would be an understatement!

All the evil cunts are pushing "predictive markets" because they've grown bored of insider trading on the stock market...

Just saying out loud that I remember this morning when they were saying that they weren’t going to do anything besides the Maduro kidnapping

Before they announced they were also going to run the entire country

I remember a few hours ago

Welcome to Canada, gents. Please enjoy some complimentary coffee and Timbits. Then, if you drive about 600 miles north and turn left at the Lethbridge sign, you'll find all our oil. Enjoy as much as you like, compliments of the Prime Minister of Battle River-Crowfoot! Mi tierra es tu tierra!

Don't worry, everyone, I'm sure THIS is the time we invade another nation, kill their leaders, steal their resources, plunder their wealth, oppress their population, and war crime their people that will work out well for everybody. The thousandth time has got to be the charm, amirite?

Tech oligarchs will occasionally pretend to be civil libertarians when convenient.

The WaPo editorial board also condemned Edward Snowden after his leaks won them more awards, so I expect nothing. But still.

Been saying something like this for a while. There's no going back to the status quo. Whatever comes after can't and won't be the same as our first 250 years. Something better must be built with the same disregard for norms and decorum that the old thing was destroyed with.
I know this gives folks big feelings & I want to make space for that, but we’re in “pessimism of the intellect, optimism of the will” territory here. What we are experiencing now are the inevitable & historical consequences of the system we have. A new one is simply what is required.

THREAD: I'll fact-check all the viral misinformation about the US military operation in Venezuela in this thread

This image, purporting to show the US military arresting Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, is AI-generated.

According to Google's SynthID detector, it was created using Google AI.

I really need everyone saying "it can't get worse for Venezuelans than Maduro" to look up what we did to the Philippines under Taft and Chilé under Pinochet.

73% of the U.S. uses social media but people are telling me the apps and algorithms don’t matter. Combine that with the literacy crisis and the hostile government takeover of mainstream media and you have a ticking time bomb
