There are articles all over nearly every tech circle about how there was a significant and measurable drop in troll farm activity. Zelensky even openly mentioned it and now tech circles are talking.

You are quite right except that most dont know the houthis practice a unique version of Islam that is neither sunni nor shiite. Saudi Arabia has been trying to colonize them for generations now in part because Saudi Arabia wants to dictate Islam. They court Iranian support not because of religion but because Yemen has been facing Saudi pressure for ages now.

Corporate canada sold the myth its poor or middle class brown people's fault instead of their insatiable appetite for endless profits even if there isnt productive growth to match it. Galen Weston testifying to parliament during covid that he deserves to pursue profits even amidst a pandemic is exactly the problem.

Tbh not sure i agree. Started a lore-playing server with friends in 2012. It grew to over 200 unique players and rich DnD style growing history. Minecraft entered its dark period after the purchase but in the last few years has given players plenty of steady updates that are bringing us back and keeping our lore playing server thriving.

Ive seen more innovations in Minecraft in 5 years than I've seen in pokemon in 20, to put it into perspective. Love both series.

We are the next great mass extinction event and in some ways our impact is already faster (and this far in, harder) than most of our previous mass extinction events. But hey, billionaires need a few more yachts and need endless growth even if it literally kills the planet. So thats a price we are willing to pay for them. We should be rioting.

These centrist governments embrace fascism to protect their ill-gotten wealth inequality and it ironically will lead to real fascists replacing them and making it much worse. Sigh.

The hyper wealthy need to wake up and realize they can still be super wealthy, they just need to give up on the idea of endless growth no matter the context. Else we are heading towards a bronze age collapse as all of our ecological, economic and social systems unwind.

Gut wrenching stories of violence and genocide DAILY. Its disgusting. The worlds everyday person is waking up, but too many governments cozy up to this fascism.

Hes retiring, and he was one of the few to openly call out Trump. Id save your energy for attacking GOP or militant centrist dems.

I find it interesting to see so many downvotes on this thread. Lots of people telling depressed people to suck it up.

Bring it on! Unsustainability will destroy us worse than a needed economic restructuring.

Nah mass consciousness is on the rise. In my home province a few years ago the government tried to ban collective bargaining for custodian services to which the province responded with a planned general strike. It won, the government immediately backed down. We do have power. We just forget that until we dont.

You can tell a person with depression they deserve to live with dignity while also telling them the world as it exists is cruel.

Deserve vs will get is different. This world is rough and you can be well meaning in saying "you deserve better" but to folks deep in pain this sounds not far from "you deserve better sure but suck it up".

You are still creating excuses for mandating someone's choice at life with suffering vs not.

Edit: its also like sex work or drugs. You can make it illegal all you want but that just pushes people underground. So. Fucking. Stupid. Sometimes society makes us bash our heads against the wall over and over and expects us to put up with it.

Other potential resolutions include banning Indigenous land acknowledgements from public events

Hmm I wonder why indigenous communities are universally against albertan separatism and concerned their treaty rights will be ignored.

The em dashes signal his grok reinforces his shitty, tasteless, abhorrent nick names. Or worse, Nathalie happily types that into his grok for him.

Thats possible true. But our proverbial great grand parents fought against muzzle and police cavalry to get kids out of the mines, to extend the vote to the working class, to recognize women as equal. These weren't given to us. Class consciousness is on the rise.

This message doesn't reach them. They read curated media. My maple maga dad is completely oblivious or even is trained to actively ignore such signals.

Minority government and lowish voter turnout means they dont have a mandate for a referendum.

You joke but the last few decades of commissions, court cases, and acknowledgements have played a big part in rebuilding our relationship with our indigenous Canadians, and is why indigenous Canadians tend to lean on our courts and themselves lend us our legitimacy as a nation. Britian signed deals with real nations to secure its place here, in doing so, recognized indigenous sovereignty within Canada. Joke all you want, these are positive developments in our journey together.

Sadly Iran's military and Islamic extremists have even greater grip than they did before the war started. Good job yankees.
