My kid is sheltering in place a block from the Brown campus, 20 people may be dead and the commenters on the Fox News website are making jokes about gender studies. WTAF is wrong with people.

The antisocial behavior of politicians who single out everyday people to abuse online feels like a descendant of influencer culture to me. For over a decade, many viewers of this kind of content have engaged with the people in it like they’re cartoon characters instead of actual human beings

#PierrePoilievre spent MORE THAN TWICE what the PM did in 2024?!
Why? What on? Where are the itemised accounts for transparency (that he loves)? How will he be held accountable to reduce waste? When will his supporters demand better from him, or fire him?

#Elxn45 highlighted division in Canada & within the right itself.
Gimmicky authoritarianism led to no HOC seat for their leader.
Most voters saw #Poilievre as an emperor /w no clothes, some saw “the great & powerful Oz”, pre-curtain reveal.
Doubling down Trump style could widen that divide.
