For now.

When the Trump administration is done gutting the NHTSA, not so much.

Please do.

Especially American liberals. Please move to, eg, Alberta and Ontario specifically and knock the UCP and OCP off their perches.

Remember they made the Democratic Party primaries less democratic after Carter was elected because he was too left wing. And they’ve only been able to nominate neoliberals since.

It’s amazing that a naval officer/peanut entrepreneur/devout Christian was “too left wing”, especially since he got beat by a Hollywood union boss from California.

Mind you, we just had an anti-elite rebellion led by a thrice-divorced billionaire failson of a New York City real estate magnate.

No less than The Economist uses the BMI (“Big Mac Index”) to compare economies.

I was going to say, this is how we get “I am Legend”.

The correct response is “If I’m going to jail because abortion is murder, I may as well kill my rapist”

The people complaining about intolerance are themselves intolerant.

Umm, yes. That’s the point.

Middle-aged white men have a lot of privilege. It’s time we used it for good.

Is this white-saviour and/or patriarchial? Yup. Does it work? Also yup.

I don’t know if we all realize this, but some shitlord being told “What the fuck is wrong you?!” cuts deeper when it comes from someone who looks like their dad, granddad, or their boss.

I’m a 47-year old white guy in a leadership position in a large company. I’ve done exactly this to both young-millenial edgelord types who think I’m in on the joke, and boomer or elder-Xers who are yelling at clouds. I will tell you that, not only does it smack down the dipshit who thought that “lol rape” or “brown people bad” was funny, it also sets the tone for everyone else in the room, and it gets word around that bigotry isn’t acceptable.

Anyone can say this, but it hits harder when it’s someone privileged. Women, LGBTQ folk and other vulnerable groups don’t have this privilege, and get shut down, and if we don’t want that to be the case, we need to speak up for them.

Cellebrite isn’t American.

Representives Omar and Tlaib would disprove that point.

As a slow cyclist, I’d totally wear this.

This is the real danger of Trump: that countries the world over will bend the knee to other autocrats in the absence of American soft power.

Having seen Poillievre, I don’t think he will do this.

If he just shuts up about “the woke” and just talks about the price of milk, he’d have this in the bag, but he can’t shut up about “the woke” because the kind of people who vote in CPC conventions talk about “woke” all the goddamn time, and he knows that if doesn’t go on about “the woke” some opportunistic usurper will shiv him.

I sorely wish the CPC party members had voted for Chong or kept O’Toole. I’d be annoyed about austerity spending, but not worried about fascism.

Considering he’s in power purely as a result of catering to the whackjob right that thought O’Toole was too sane, I would not put faith in his ability to keep the whackjobs under control.

It’s the old “What’s the problem with riding a tiger? You can’t get off without getting eaten.” problem that comes from courting populism.

Ohio just voted for a convicted rapist and felon who ran the worst campaign in modern history.

I don’t have any faith in America at all and the US “heartland” specifically. If Trump told them to cut their own genitals off, they’d do it.

Because Ford needs you angry about bike lanes while he does his 413 land grab.

That’s why bike lanes are in this bill: Ford doesn’t care about them, they’re just a hail-mary to distract for the other measures in the bill meant to get his highway-to-nowhere built and his developer buddies their ROI.

When you realize that a huge amount of the small- and medium-size right-wing media ecosphere is funded by herbal boner pills, you’ll understand why this is a thing.

He’s doing this to keep eyes off of the 413.

The more “bike lanes!!” ragebait he stirs up, the less people pay attention to the clauses in the act about eminent domain, skipping environmental assessments or skipping the civil engineers that are on strike.

Make Polio Great Again

We used to have progressive income taxes that did this.

Reagan, Thatcher and their ilk pulled them because “trickle down, a rising tide lifts all boats, thousand points of light, blah blah blah”
