Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying.

They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks.

Les paramédics de l'Estrie manifestaient hier afin de réclamer plus de couverture ambulancière dans la grande région de Sherbrooke. Les bris de service sont plus en plus fréquents. La rigueur budgétaire en santé met la population en danger. #polqc

Le gouvernement veut modifier le Code du travail pour limiter le droit de grève, à l’avantage des patrons évidemment. C’est une attaque frontale contre un droit fondamental des travailleurs. #polqc

🚨I'm seeing some climate accounts posting overpopulation stuff, so I've removed the paywall from my article on the subject: Overpopulation Is A Racist Trope.
'Overpopulation' Is A Racist Trope. It's Time We Laid It To Rest
A new movie satirises the myth that climate change is a consequence of too many people. In the real world, our overpopulation obsession must be euthanised.

"Mandatory equality is obviously not what powerful people prefer. They will object that it infringes upon their rights. Because the right in question is the right to pretend that the rights of others are not as important as their own, it is not a right that we should be too bothered about violating"

It is good to make powerful people participate in public systems.

Huh.

They did another study on Kessler Syndrome (the cascade event where one orbital collision cascades into a permanent storm), and they put it at around 2050 now, unless the rate of orbits slows down. robertvanwey.substack.com/p/the-immine...

At this point it’s been said in a hundred different ways, so I think people are being intentional about not getting it.

The US workforce can be divided into “sitters” (like programmers and lawyers) and “standers” (like servers and construction workers). In our newest piece, @alv9n.com looks at what we can learn from this labor split.

This irks me to no end. Do NOT talk about my people if you will reduce us only to needing us to keep things cheap! That is NOT being an ally. That’s just willing to sacrifice us for capitalism.
Worse, it reduces mass deportation to a problem for capitalism. Instead of neighbors, friends and family members we are talking about the price of cereal.

Some liberal/resist types go so far it’s blatantly racist w/stereotypes about needing immigrants to cut the grass and clean the toilets.

"If a woman doesn't look woman enough to a Republican, they want to be able to inspect your genitals to use a bathroom? It's disgusting.

Everyone should reject it completely... they're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kind, and everyone should reject it. It's gross." - AOC
