The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.”
That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.

Community building and compassion will always beat facism. Anger and fear is what is trying to be provoked. If you think you only have two choices, you’re being manipulated. Choose eachother.

As a Canadian, seeing these Americans giggle at the idea of taking our sovereignty is fucking harrowing and offensive.
Q: Trump trolling or Trump truthing -- Greenland joining America?
LEAVITT: Definitely Trump truthing
Q: Canada becoming the 51st state
LEAVITT: Trump truthing. All the way. And the Canadians would benefit greatly.

Canada is no longer dealing with a globalizing neoliberalism that extracts surplus value from workers and the Global South.

Canadians aren't being asked to meet the moment
As Donald Trump triples down on his economic war against Canada, one of the things that inspires the most hope is the vociferous and passionate response of Canadians.

I don’t know who will see this or needs to hear it. Here’s a honk for you:
Focus on the good you can find, who you love, & remember that we need kindness now more than ever.
I’ve never claimed to be a “Patriot”, but we cannot let fear divide our country that has always stood for kindness.

Here's my new piece. It's a deep dive into why Millennials have been infantilized and why teenagerness has been extended into young adulthood: it's a tool of social control to render entire generations incapable of organizing to fight back.
