If you want to learn more about the Ultra Far Right Dominionist Christian Nationalist movement, here is an assortment of podcasts that spell out the threat to democracy in more detail.

Much of it is American, but it’s the same threat to Canada & most global democracies.
This is Frank Schaeffer. A progressive activist that was part of the Christian movement 30 years ago. He knew all the main players currently advising Trump Administration.

He predicts violence if Trump is removed.

I expect the same with Kenney/UCP.

Andrew Seidel, constitutional and civil rights attorney and atheist.
Andrew is also the author of the book The Founding Myth: How Christian Nationalism is Un-American.

This whole series reviews the links to Christian nationalism and mercenary violence. It’s far more prevalent than many believe.

Here is a recent article for a new book detailing the Dominionist Christian agenda and political strategy to take all political power. This is definitely happening in Canada. Ford, Kenney were elected using this strategy and so will the next CPC leader.

Here is the book the article is about. Available to Canadians.

Two other books that are along the same vein.
And another by our very own Chrystia Freeland.
You’ll find, if you start poking around, they are all the same people. With the same agenda.

If you want to know how Wet’suwet’en community was persuaded to vote against their land title rights and approve of the CGL pipeline, review this link.

It’s happening in the Métis community as well.

Notice all the natural resource job training being made available. Accumulation and shared benefits of wealth is the focus.

Several representatives from banks, fossil fuel industries, financing corporations.
Showering opportunities (aka financing) for projects related to O&G expansion on systematically disadvantaged group of people.

Someone dig up an old thread from about a year ago.

With Wexit looming over Alberta, it’s a thread that has held up.

But it’s not Ottawa abandoning Alberta. It’s the provincial UCP and their austerity budgets and massive cuts.
There is only so much gaslighting this government can do. Believe your lying eyes. You have way less financial security now than you did a year ago.

No spin is going to change that reality.
And look what the result was. The spawning of CCF I’m response to severe conditions.

We need the same response.

We need to let our government know this is unacceptable & deaths & suffering to save pennies to then hand over to oil companies and industry shareholders is done.

To every Canadian who falls under the category settler.

I’m sorry the definition of the word hurts your feelings. But indigenous people don’t have the power to redefine and sanitize what terms that describe everyone who is not indigenous to the continent.
If it bothers you that you are not indigenous to Canada, I am unsure how to assuage those feelings. But to be clear, it isn’t my responsibility to assuage those feelings. So I’m not going to try.
Asking me or any other indigenous person to stop calling settlers “settlers” is an attempt to distance yourself from the realities that have resulted from the inherent systemic disadvantage placed unceremoniously upon indigenous people.

Here's a story I've been quietly working on for several months: Today, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone was officially released in Yiddish translation. How it happened is a remarkable story in its own right, and you can read it all here: tabletmag.com/jewish-arts-an…
So, how do you translate "Quidditch" into Yiddish? I talked to the official Yiddish translator of Harry Potter and found out:
tabletmag.com/jewish-arts-an…
Anyhow, the story of how Harry Potter got translated into Yiddish involves an Indian-American Orthodox Jewish translator, a Swedish publishing house, competing translators, and more. I had lots of fun writing it and you don't need to know Yiddish to enjoy: tabletmag.com/jewish-arts-an…

 What really is the Democratic Left?
Thread

Combating MSM, @DNC & the Right's misinformation campaign, propaganda & lies about where Left, Center & Right actually are politically w/ some fucking history & facts to protect our #Democracy from modern slavery #Neoliberalism.
French Revolution Nat. Assembly seating was origins of political Left & Right spectrum designations.

Left wanted reform, new constitution w/ Declaration of Rights of Man & of Citizen

Right wanted to continue Ancien Régime - monarchy & feudal nobility

2/
 Examples:
1. Men are born and remain free and equal in rights.
2. These rights are liberty, property, safety and resistance against oppression.
5. The law has the right to forbid only actions harmful to society...

I listen to ~90 #Podcasts on a (semi) regular basis. Let me give you a rundown of ALL of them and why you should listen to some amazing #FOAMed, especially for all the new #EmergencyMedicine interns. #FOAMed #MedEd #medtwitter
First of all, you need a good podcast app. I absolutely love Downcast. Great app, gives you more control over playback, downloading, and allows you to categorize your podcasts into playlists (picture 2). This is where you get to customize your #FOAMed experience! #medtwitter
In no particular order,

- Anesthesia and Critical Care Reviews and Commentary (ACCRAC). Great insight into Crit Care from an anesthesia perspective. Coming from EM, this is great to listen to- much different from my day-to-day! #FOAMed #FOAMcc #CriticalCare

@profagagne Professor Gagne sent me an article. It is quite relevant to AB election and the number of “Lake of Fire” bozo eruptions. “Lake of Fire” is a colloquial description of Dominionism.

The article is directly relevant to UCP “Lake of Fire” candidates & the UCP agenda.
Jason Kenney is part of a global Dominionist Christian agenda to subvert democracy and so are many of his UCP candidates.

My intent with this very long thread is to demonstrate the facts to prove it beyond doubt.

I hope you’ll read it in entirety to inform your vote.
I’ve tweeted before about Dominionist Christians and their agenda.





So has Professor Gagne.



There’s a reason. Much of the global surge of autocrats is connected to a global Dominionist Christian Agenda.

Venezuela has emerged from the US attacks on its electrical system.
By @MaxBlumenthal
Terrible news for Little @marcorubio @AmbJohnBolton & Guadio’s gang, but great news for the people of Caracas:

The city’s free Metro system is coming back on line as Venezuela recovers from its curiously timed electricity outages.

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...
