Because every Canadian newspaper is owned by PostMedia. Our media landscape is bleak.

This goes beyond electoral politics. Political discourse as a whole in that country is fucked.

Great example of manufactured consent

Go read that article, especially the “Academic Studies and Criticism” section.

Both parties are the “get the job done” party. This administration has continued to give unconditional aid to Israel, and has not done anything remotely resembling a penalty to them for conducting a genocide. The only difference is the rhetoric.

I’m not saying don’t vote for Kamala, I hope she wins. My point is that all this anger should be directed at the party for alienating large swaths of the population that should be their base. I can empathize with someone who has family in Palestine or Lebanon that does not feel like they can in good conscience vote for the party that is supplying bombs being dropped on their loved ones.

This should be an easy win, Donald Trump is an incredibly unpopular candidate, and we should be outraged at the Democrats for making misstep after misstep in this campaign.

Crazy how you can look at the Democratic administration taking zero action on any of those things and somehow make it my fault, but go off king.

Once again, I am not advocating for 3rd parties. You guys are shadowboxing.

I’m saying don’t blame the people because the Democrats shat the bed in this election. Neither party is willing to reign in Israel, the Biden administration has done absolutely nothing to stop the genocide.

I’m not going to fault someone one way or the other about their decision to vote for Kamala.

I am not a 3rd party advocate. Jill Stein and her ilk are grifters.

I’m not even advocating against voting for Harris, just don’t blame the people that didn’t if she loses.

Lmao they’re not going to learn anything. Their takeaway will be “we didn’t try hard enough to capture moderate Republicans” and shift further to the right.

Instead of getting mad at people for not voting for a candidate that doesn’t align with their interests, maybe you should be mad at the Democratic party for running a dogshit campaign. Even from a pragmatic point of view, its a lot easier to put pressure on the party than to yell at hundreds of thousands of people with varying reasons for not wanting to vote for her.

Of course not. These protests are about saying “we want to vote for you, but we need to see you do something about this”

Republicans being bloodthirsty fascists is a given, Democrats aren’t supposed to be. Kamala’s campaign should be the one messaging how awful Trump would be for Gaza, not random forum posters, but they don’t because she doesn’t have any functionally different policy on that than Trump.

I don’t get why this is hard to grasp.

*Palestinian Genocide

If you’re afraid of visiting Russian websites, piracy is probably not for you.

Anna’s Archive does this. I think its a really good way to make it difficult to take them down.

Hopefully this hack starts some conversations on how they can ensure longevity for their project. Seems they’re being attacked on multiple fronts now.

This is the closest election I’ve seen in my life. If Surrey Centre and Juan de Fuca flip, the Conservatives win. That’s a decision made by like 100 votes in an election where 2,000,000 ballots were cast.

That’s true, NDP will likely eke out the win here, but a Con win is entirely possible with how close these ridings are.

They do skew left, but that could manifest as something like 35% NDP, 20% Green, 45% Conservative.

They’re saying final results for mail in ballots won’t be counted until October 26th. We might not have a clear winner for a week!

Less than 100 votes decides this. Insanity.

Israel started the war long before October 6th.

I reminisce for the days when spyware was cute 😞
