  1. Just the exhausting reality of knowing what systems, institutions, and policies built on stolen land and stolen lives are capable of.

    Stop calling it a failure.

    Start calling it what it is: the predictable outcome of a system designed to harm.

  6. ⬆️ I suspected shortly after #Oct7 what it was about:

    >> I have no evidence that this is actually foreign #interference in #Election2024, but if it is, the interference is going to catch us as another massive #FailureOfImagination.

    Since then, I added repeatedly that we should not allow #Iran to do to #Biden what it did to #Carter.

    45 years ago, Iran released hostages timed around #Reagan's inauguration. Encore by Iran's #AxisOfResistance around #Trump's inauguration.

  9. ⬆️ @MaybeMyMonkeys

    >> They came pretty close to that last year when #Khalistan #extremists targeted #India's High Commissioner and Consul General of #India to #Toronto

    And let's not trivialize this incident and think this is somebody else's problem, not #Canada's, or #USA's, or #Japan's or the world's.

    It took one assassination by #GavriloPrincip (of #Serbia's #BlackHand) to assassinate Archduke #FranzFerdinand and precipitate #WWI.

  12. ⬆️ YES, #Trudeau, yes, but not entirely #unpredictable

    A win for #Republican frontrunner Donald #Trump in #US #Election2024 would mean … "unpredictability" for #Canada, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said on Tuesday

    While Trudeau is correctly focused on the #political and #economic fallout, like Trump #tariffs on #Canadian steel and abandonment of #NAFTA in favor of #USMCA under Trump, he should also keep eye on #extremists within Canada

    9/11 was a #FailureOfImagination

  15. ⬆️

    #Canada is also in the top 5 for #IsraelApartheid, just like #Khalistan #secessionist movement.

    #US is in neither.

    US is beset with its own #domesticExtremism and #GOP #politicalExtremism, but Canada might be staring at a #globalExtremism problem.

    There are #UncannySimilarities in Canada being in the top 5 for both issues, and both of these spikes happened soon after #Trump’s loss, but before the #Nijjar incident and #Oct7 #Hamas attacks.

    Remember, 9/11 was a #failureOfImagination

  18. ⬆️ 9/11 was a #FailureOfImagination.

    >> He wasn’t a foreign national in #Canada, he was a #Canadian citizen

    That's #Trudeau's take too, who said targeting him was an affront to Canadian sovereignty.

    This misses that #Nijjar was not targeted because he was #Canadian, but because of his deeds.

    Treating Nijjar JUST as a Canadian is no different to stripping #Hamas of its deeds and treating them as JUST #Gazans. The latter is true but irrelevant in a counter-terrorism operation

  21. @KristianHarstad

    Adding to the previous post, it seems like #Biden is doomed to lose votes regardless of where past or even a renewed #American foreign policy takes him.

    It's a lose-lose situation for #Biden and #America, and that's what has my antennas up!

    I might be imagining too much, perhaps because it is #Halloween. I have no evidence that this is actually foreign #interference in #Election2024, but if it is, the interference is going to catch us as another massive #FailureOfImagination

  24. Imagination is POWERFUL. This is why fascist regimes attempt to control art, and why movements seeking liberation must never say that making art is somehow frivolous or ”taking away from the struggle.”

    To create different worlds, we have to be able to imagine them first.
