  • It’s precarious because the ruling government has ruined it on purpose. They are trashing things and breaking systems literally on purpose, so they can rebuild everything in the christian heritage fascist vision they have cooked up in their minds. Once they force separation somehow, and of course they’ll make sure the pockets of their supporters as well as their own will be lined with gold each step along the way.

    Most Albertans stand by doing nothing while they do all of this. That’s why this is happening, sorry for the long-winded explanation. Personally I think this is pretty cruel, whether you agree with MAID or not. Cruelty against its citizens also seems to be a key goal of the sitting government.









  • One thing that I just absolutely cannot reconcile in all of this, is the involvement of people who obviously have some sort of first or second generational immigration background, in screaming and oppressing immigration.

    I know of a person who is now in the US just absolutely down the MAGA spiral. But the weird thing is, his grandparents died in a concentration camp in the second world war. He himself is now an immigrant to the US, from a country he also immigrated to earlier in life. Just absolutely droning on about…immigrants.

    It’s completely baffling. Talk about cutting off your nose to spite your face.





  • It said somewhere in the article that the trespasser was arrested with a loaded handgun. So I mean yeah, busting into places with a loaded handgun is generally pretty frowned upon. Even if it’s legally possessed, it’s now also illegally handled.

    I mean you don’t bust into labs armed for the purposes of general hobbies or whatever, you wouldn’t think, right? To me that makes me think that if someone was going to catch him, he would consider shooting them, which is sort of serious business. I’m thinking there’s a lot more to come out about this story, unless these guys are just really that into rockets.


  • There’s a lot like you. I’m going to admit that I’ve been voting Liberal for a few years now. I voted conservative for probably 20 years, but there’s been a big shift in my voting because there’s been a big shift in partisan politics in this country. Never fathomed the day I’d be voting NDP or Liberal when I was younger, but here we are. And it’s not like I’m really all that Liberal or all that NDP (I’m not NDP leaning really at all - except I’m in Alberta so provincially we only effectively have two choices).

    The conservatives, especially at the federal and (Alberta) provincial level are just way too gross for me though. And even if they eject the radicals at some point, I just don’t trust them now. It’s party rule by memes, insults, slogans, corruption and borderline racism/facism.

    I’m glad 87% of partisan bootlickers voted for this guy. Because there’s really not many others that will in the broader elections. I wouldn’t say he’s closing ground either, if anything he’s furthering the gap. So this is all a weird strategy for Conservatives, at least in my irrelevant opinion.
