It’s a bit concerning when an anti racist educator doesn’t recognize or distinguish racism from criticism.
What’s weird is most easily recognize when UCP illegitimately preempts criticism by labeling dissent and criticism as authoritarian.
But racist? Is everything racist?
Or just every criticism of behaviour of someone from BIPOC?
Honestly. Criticizing repeated and highly manipulative propaganda and disinformation by a political leader is racist? I hope not. I criticize other party leaders too. None of them called criticism racist before.
I especially enjoyed the contempt in the directive to remove my criticism. Not happening. I don’t intimidate that easily. And I’m working really hard to keep my emotions at bay. But it’s difficult.
Populism is such a toxic influence.
When you see racism in every opinion expressed about a POC, that’s actually called overreacting. Because NDP leader is a POC, does that mean no one can criticize his behaviour without being accused of racism?
How convenient.

It’s organized crime. Domestic and foreign organized crime. Which was allowed by former government to take root by cutting budgets by 20% and refocusing on preventing domestic terrorism expected to be committed by domestic and foreign threats.
Yep. Here is the budget that has been approved. Plans to expand affordable housing by 100K units in a couple of years. And plans for more into 2027. A five year plan.
The vast majority of modern democracies use representative democracy.
The government is chosen by the people. The electorate chooses who governs by casting a vote. The winners then govern for all people, not just a subset.
Populism is inherently divisive. While it claims to be democratic, “The People” populism represents is a much narrower subset of the population. Populists mean the “good” people. Everyone else is an elite or an enemy.
Nuance ceases to exist. There is only black and white.
When FBI are forced to fly up to Canada to demand an espionage investigation in which a foreign asset with access through Canadian intelligence is bleeding 5 eyes secrets to Russia, something is terribly wrong.
The kicker: CSIS had been surveillance the mole for months. Yet was legally prevented from informing RCMP investigators and law enforcement.
Does that sound normal to you?
A foreign ally was required to intervene to trigger the rushed investigation by RCMP so criminal espionage impacting several nations could be halted on Canadian turf.
LPC has established an oversight system in 2018 in the National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians. It is multi partisan & responsible for ALL intelligence activities.
Read the committee order. The NDP & CPC want any documents related to criminal espionage with no redactions. They are okay with other redactions. Why?
@PeeCee62@juzreading@78Bouch It’s also been leaked by Fife and other mainstream Canadian media sources that American IC is assisting RCMP and CSIS with the investigation.
Without redactions, names of sources and Canadian and American IC assets could be revealed.
Putting them and their families in peril.
@PeeCee62@juzreading@78Bouch Which is a similar situation to the Steele dossier when it became known that Trump’s connections to Russia were being investigated.
Some American assets had to be extracted under existential threat and hidden in the US. Some Russians lost their lives.
