The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

The more white wing media at the Times and the Post try to gaslight people about what Kirk stood for, the more social media accounts, and new media journalists will continue posting receipts.

Snoop's ignorance reminds me of this dynamite passage from Bill Russell's book "Second Wind." He wrote this in 1979 and it still applies today: People use children to express their bigotry and narrow-mindedness.

Once again, the Cons didn’t gain seats in Ontario. The alt-right, MAGA Maple, anti-science Reform Party won seats. Roman Baber. Matt Strauss. Andrew Lawton. This is deeply disturbing. #Cdnpoli

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.

A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

When you cover Rebel News will you mention they’re a registered political advertiser promoting Pierre Poilievre’s interests @jenstden.bsky.social? They have filed papers with Elections Canada.

Leans progressive with commitments to public health care, pharmacare, dental care, mental health funding, and universal childcare. Defends reproductive rights, boosts youth supports, & promises green and Indigenous-led infrastructure investments.

We can have a nice long debate about the extent to which it’s good that social media has democratized information flows, but I miss the days when cranks were mostly restricted to fringe physical newsletters and wearing sandwich boards on street corners.

The Muslim community rejected Kamala Harris due to the war in Gaza. The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil is one of the consequences of their choice. He was targeted by an adminstration that despise Muslims, but y'all didn't listen. He won't be the only one.
