Total self-sabotage.
The US ruling class has no idea what to do, they are completely adrift. And this is dangerous because they are likely to resort to #violence & #geopolitical bullying in a desperate dying bid to hold onto power.
The #US has so thoroughly purged #socialist ideas from its #economics departments & has ensured such absolute hegemony of #neoliberal principles, that it is incapable of conceptualizing & implementing even *basic* #industrial policy that could deliver on the government's own stated goals.
The result is that the #tariffs will likely accelerate US #industrial decline & general #economic degradation.
It is truly fascinating to watch.
What's wild about the US #tariffs is that they are not coupled with any industrial policy or public #investment strategy that could plausibly deliver US re #industrialization.
@benroyce @ManyRoads @pa @genecowan @petergleick But I want to be lazy! Dont you get it. Having to get up and #vote once every couple of years and THEN see a bunch of monkeys jack off from the top position on down is... annoying. I just know I could do so much better than them but like, I'm lazy so nah.
I joke but only for like 97%
My #Canadian friends, we must do all we can to keep Poilievre & his brand of hateful, divisive & unconstructive hubris out of government. He has such contempt & disrespect for Canadians & Canada that he hasn’t even obtained a security clearance. Does anyone actually believe that he *can*? He’s a national security & domestic affairs risk. He’s unfit.
By voting strategically, you can help ensure the CPC candidate loses. Check your riding:

“The Liberals now hold consistent and significant leads in Quebec, Ontario, and the Atlantic. If this persists to the election, the Liberals could secure a majority before vote counting begins in some ridings. They also lead in British Columbia and have better prospects in Alberta than in recent elections”
…
“The gender gap is astonishing, with the Liberals ahead by 29 points with women... “
Somebody just posted on Facebook that there is an advance polling station for the federal election at Mic Mac Mall where voting cards are not necessary. Is this legit? Does anyone know for sure?
I do know that I haven't received any voting information yet besides candidate pamphlets. It would be nice to get it done, but I don't want to spoil my vote.
I agree that Trump should be removed by either impeachment or the 25th Amendment, However, getting rid of him does NOT get rid of the cabal that has been holding him up as their titular head.
The people, ALL the people, need to #StandUp, #Vote, and #HoldAccountable every elected official!

Undecided voters need time to consider their options. “A good political decision is rational (informed, coherent and consistent) and autonomous (a person knows why they made it and can explain their reasoning to you). A bad political decision, on the other hand, is “one driven by bias, poor or incorrect information, or hidden motives,” he wrote. “It is a decision that is often made on instinct, without research or reflection.” #election2025 #canada #democracy #vote https://www.thestar.com/opinion/contributors/in-polarized-times-the-undecided-voter-is-rare-and-prized/article_5e46c14e-422e-43d5-bd1e-b56574dd1eb6.html

Breaking: A US #immigration #judge has ruled that the #deportation case against #MahmoudKhalil can proceed, a month after the #Columbia student was detained over his involvement in pro #Palestine #protest.
Been seeing a lot more Canadian flags flying around my little town and whereas it would have irked the fuck out of me a couple years back (truckers), it fills me with some relief. #vote #canadavotes2025 #dontfuckthisupeh #elbowsup
With current attacks on #DEI in the US, & our upcoming #CanadianElection, this @RoamancingReads #podcast by Jacqueline Louie is a must listen to for all #Canadians. The story Jacqueline shares here of the exclusion of #ChineseCanadians in the shadows of #CanadianHistory is a reminder of why it's so important to #VOTE in the upcoming election, so we don't find ourselves living in a world that segregates & excludes.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport so they can vote is a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
