The boy on the swing is the general Canadian public. When will it become clear to them that having an economy like Saudi Arabia comes at a price?

No surprises there: in #Turkey 's 2nd round presidential elections #Erdogan prevails; brace for another 5 years of nationalism, Islamism, authoritarian majoritarianism, rising xenophobia and a further erosion of what is left of civil society and an independent judiciary.

#Twitter is rapidly outfoxing #FoxNews
Why aren't more progressives moving to #Spoutible then?

On the day #GeorgeSantos is indicted for making up shit and defrauding the voters of New York, #CNN gives #DonaldTrump a prime time forum for making up much more consequential shit and defrauding the whole country.

A very interesting piece analyzing historical, cultural, and demographic factors for #GunViolence in the US. Got me thinking and cannot get myself to agree with everything in it, but definitely worth some reflection.

Canadian Natural Resources Ltd, Husky, Suncor, Cenovus are no different to ExxonMobil, Shell, BP. They're no less destructive than NRA or Vladimir Putin.

#BidenHarris2024 makes sense but it's a huge gamble.
At this point #joebiden is the one #Democrat with the best shot at winning on 11/5/24 (and that's what it's all about), but there might be only one #Republican he can beat.
What if that #Republican isn't the nominee?

#ClarenceThomas isn't an aberration of US politics, he's the personification of everything the #GOP stands for:
corruption stinking to the high heavens,
cuddling with mega-donors hoarding Nazi memorabilia,
and leading an all-out assault on women's rights.
That's SCOTUS in 2023
