Twice in my Toronto life I have lived in apts built during that mid century boom, thankfully. The decision to slow it was correct *at that moment & context* but it led to a disastrous political climate & Toronto’s critical problem today.

This is not a “peace deal”. It’s a 28-point surrender plan drafted and leaked to US media by Russia, and Trump treated it like it was his own. Rubio admitted as much to senators.

This is shaping up to be a train wreck.

Not only are X users marinating in a disinformation bubble, but viewing the posts of bots on X actively contributes American funds to overseas bot farms because of its financial reward system.
If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”

Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

His “peace plan” is a Russian wish list which requires Ukraine to surrender huge parts of their country and remain vulnerable to future Russian invasions.

…and he’s mad they are not thanking him for it.
