    I'm curious if this is the one you gentlemen are referring to?

    That is a creepy image.

    I recently saw a book, as in hardcover, made from a decade of Facebook posts.

    Sam Seder's majority report and Ben Dixon are my favorite commentators--and then I listen to Mike Malloy for nostalgic reasons, screaming at "conservatives".

    Reporter straight up asking DJT about Qanon to his face blew my mind, his answer was not surprising at all.

    We have gone full nazi here in the states, the RNC made that super clear. The coming months will (continue to) be interesting.
    We are becoming more and more differentiated from Americans, politically now. There will always be a contingent of anti-social individuals, or right wing libertarians who love Trump and would love to see a more right leaning Conservative party in power, but it ain't happening. The democratic socialists and liberals have a lock on power. We have a minority liberal government under Trudeau, who has to cater to the far left, NDP in order to gain any kind of traction for their policies. It's beautiful. On the 23rd of this month, through the throne speech, we will find out if they are leaning towards providing us with a universal basic income. It would work this way...everybody gets it, the individual is encouraged to work, (obviously) but the federal government won't start clawing back until the citizen is making 38,000.00 per year.

    Conservatives are wetting their pants about it. It may not happen, but it looks very much like Covid provides the opportunity to test UBI out as people start going back to work. This is the nightmare conservatives fear...a benevolent government that provides universal healthcare, is working on constructing subsidized housing, provides a basic income as jobs evaporate due to automation.

    There won't be as much room for corporations to maneuver and force people to work 3 jobs, 18 hours per day. Canadians will be united against corporate opportunism and we will do it through our government, who, believe it or not, is working on our behalf. They are far far from perfect, and if the UBI system is instituted, there will be problems with it. But....the consequences of not going ahead with it are much more dire--and politicians understand that.

    We just aren't as big, we don't have a lot of power, we aren't afflicted with the number of vultures you have in the U.S. We also were not brought up with the 'primacy of the individual' idea, going back to Locke and Adams that Americans have been brainwashed with. We're lucky. I think a lot of it has to do with harsher climate conditions too. Colder countries create a sense of interdependence. You never truly have a sense your 'personal sovereignty' trumps a blizzard!

    I'm very glad to hear you don't have as many RWNJs as we do down here. It gives me hope.

    Hey, OG. I appreciate the invitation. My husband and I honeymooned in Vieux Quebec and just loved it. My husband wanted to move to Canada for years after. I said it's too cold. Rhode Island was more than cold enough for me and it's not a cold state. I come from AZ.

    He also wanted to move to Ireland. Too rainy. I would get depressed.

    And I have heard it is really hard to get in to Canada. That's probably a good thing. We need to collectively clean up our messes rather than run away from them. IMHO.


    Facebook has gone another step now.


    Facebook said the change is an update on the policy it created in August that initially only removed accounts related to the QAnon conspiracy theory that discussed violence, which resulted in the termination of 1,500 pages, groups and profiles.

    A company spokesperson said the enforcement, which started Tuesday, will “bring to parity what we’ve been doing on other pieces of policy with regard to militarized social movements,” such as militia and terror groups that repeatedly call for violence.

    “Starting today, we will remove Facebook Pages, Groups and Instagram accounts for representing QAnon. We’re starting to enforce this updated policy today and are removing content accordingly, but this work will take time and will continue in the coming days and weeks,” Facebook wrote in a press release. “Our Dangerous Organizations Operations team will continue to enforce this policy and proactively detect content for removal instead of relying on user reports.”

    Dreamtimer, I love ice cold, crisp snow, sun shining. That's Quebec. Arizona is way too hot for me. But its a dry heat and that makes it a little more tolerable. As far as rain and depression. Yes, I live under cloud cover 8 months of the year and it is depressing. I take very mild anti depressants for 6 months of it. It's absolutely necessary. On the other hand the risk of forest fire is slightly reduced due to all the rain.

    It doesn't matter where you live, there are always drawbacks of one kind or another, particularly with climate change!

    Massive amounts of money and hit pieces 24/7 since 2016 elections and also Q beginnings from the 4 AM narrative creators n 6 CorpaRATions, we all wish to stand strong as long as we can, then the broom will cherish it's use.
