Retired. Living in Quebec. Dismayed by the failure of public health during Covid, Russian aggression and the rise of fascism and oligarchs. It's all connected. Russia has plagued Ukraine and the World for far too long.
NAFO!

This is the playbook, folks.
If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.
Do not be quiet in this moment.

We are now in the infamous "MISSION ACCOMPLISHED" swaggering stage of successfully provoking a country in the Middle East to want to kill Americans.

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

I guarantee those who want 🇨🇦 to become the 51state will be voting. Those who want to deport our neighbours will be voting. Those who want to limit your body autonomy will vote.
These people are the minority but THEY VOTE!
The rest of us, the majority of us, need to vote.

I haven't been terribly political in past years. As many of you can tell, this has changed. I feel very strongly about our country and the direction in which we're headed.
The federal election on April 28 is an existential one for Canada. This is not being over-dramatic.

The horror show in the US threatens to drag us into its chaos as well. We will need good leadership and a good team to ride out the storm. In fact, we already have a good prime minister, Mark Carney, at the helm. He needs to continue.

The recent polls have gladdened my heart but also worry me. Firstly, if people get complacent and don't get out to vote, this will all be for naught. Secondly, there has been tremendous fascist propaganda aimed at younger people, particulary men.

It may be an uphill battle to reach them on gaming sites and gaming chats like Discord but we must act to blunt the poisonous influences that may result in Canada becoming a MAGA colony.

Qualities like selflessness, empathy, respect for others and working for the common good need to be reinforced. And this will have to be done chiefly by other men. Perhaps this is more of a longer term project.
I hope this demographic goes down the right path, now and in the future.

85 years ago, Charlie Chaplin delivered his famous speech at the end of his first film with dialogue - The Great Dictator.
He spoke these timeless words as Nazis rose to power, and the drums of war beat in Europe, echoing across the world.
As relevant, and necessary to hear, today as ever

This is the way forward. Canada must be part of this. Time to cut the cord with the US. Time to invest on our own civil/national defense.
I agree with @kajakallas that the EU should become a beacon of freedom. So when do we start?
Here I offer six ways to actually light the beacon and step into the role history has chosen for us. Our response to the current uncertainty can be firm and long term. A thread.🧵1/17

Disinformation doesn’t just lie — it builds traps.
These traps use narrative frames that lock your brain into biased thinking.
Once inside, you filter all facts through their frame.
