Politics

I’m so thankful for Mehdi Hassan, taking no fucks from absolute scum like Dershowitz. Anyone defending the Israeli psychopaths (and those funding/supporting) need to be called out daily. I couldn’t do it, but I’m glad Mehdi has the presence of mind to tackle these assholes constantly and regularly.

Honestly, I am soo bored and exhausted of the 🍊 and the bullshit that comes along with him. Tariffs on. Tariffs off. Epstein list on. List off. Atrocious foreign policies. Ineffectual diplomacy. What you get when you put someone fundamentally ill suited for a role. Thanks ‘Merica!

Honestly, the BBC’s biased and bullshit coverage of the genocide in Gaza can fuck right off. Take any shred of credibility, douse it in gasoline and torch it. Bunch of hacks.

I need a drink.

Those Americans congratulating themselves for this action by the US must understand that war in the Middle East has a long fucking tail.

First comes strength, then comes peace.
— Some idiot in the current American Government….oops sorry Bibi Netanyahu.

Getting policy direction from Bibi Netanyahu is one of the weakest positions that a country like the US could have. Shame on you for sticking your sail to the mast of a genocidal, deplorable, murderous and odious government like the Israeli one.

Well that was quick. Flight was cancelled this morning, because of course it was. I haven’t seen my parents in 6 years and these assholes are a small part of the reason.

Then I get the pleasure of reading Western governments standing by this entitled nation of thieves. They steal land.
The steal lives.
They steal people.
They steal time.
They steal peace.

So proud of their theft they even have a saying:

If I don’t take it from you, someone else will.

Globally we are moving back towards the law of the jungle. Everything, absolutely everything I was scared about from 🍊 1.0 is coming to pass in version 2.0.

Bravo America for inflicting this muppet on the world. A failed entertainer with no concept of diplomacy.

Honestly I’m not overtly surprised by Israel’s audacity. They have been aided and empowered by the world’s biggest army and economy. We are in a time where dialogue and even pretending to try and maintain norms no longer exists. The backlash to ‘wokeness’? Regardless, this is an unhinged state, unleashed as it ‘tries to protect itself’ by preempting and blowing shit up in other countries. Lebanon, Syria and Iraq will all get dragged into this in some form or another.

Israel as a state does not have the right to exist, just like any country in the world doesn’t have a right. People have a right to exist above any bullshit ideology or man made construct defined by lines on a map.

I really wish I knew what power the Israelis have over the western governments. The more you get online the more you see people being detained for speaking their minds and trying to draw attention to something that should be a non discussion for anyone with a shred of humanity or decency.

The Israelis are abjectly horrible human beings who think their lives are more important and worth more than a Palestinian life. Starving 2 million people and systematically killing thousands in the year 2025 should not be a fucking topic of debate. This government would run out of everything without the support and help from outside its borders.

I can’t understand how and why this is still continuing apart from blind racism. And to think governments and their long arms have the right to question someone who speaks out about this. I just really don’t understand the world we live in and haven’t for quite some time.

How the hell did we get here?

A madman like Putin is destroying a nation, for bullshit reasons. A country like Israel is allowed to commit ethnic cleansing in view of everyone. Racist and fascist views are rampant at a government level in many countries in Europe and now increasingly in the US. There is increasingly less tolerance between humans. Our home is on fire.

Actually the question shouldn’t be how did we get here, but rather how to we get out…

The Atlantic must have seen how popular David Frum has been recently to The Hub subscribers, so they’ve given the man his very own show, The David Frum Show.

In between all the stupidity and madness coming out of The White House, it’s good to remember that there are some seriously smart people in the US. It’s just that their political system is seriously fucked and can be manipulated by a reality TV parody mafia boss that looks like a 🍊.

Carney’s Checkmate. How Canada’s quiet bond play forced the tariffs to be dropped. Now that is what I call a power play. The 🍊and his cronies are so dumb.

This is not a uniquely American problem. Liz Truss lasted less than a lettuce in the UK and did much damage to the economy because of sheer ignorance.

In world politics change requires diplomacy and discussion, not negotiating life a parody mafia boss you baboon.

Reminds me of one of my favourite quotes:

Talent hits a target no one else can hit; Genius hits a target no one else can see.
—  Arthur Schopenhauer

🍊 He’s shorted the market. He’s fucking around with the world. Unbelievable really. Monkey with a machine gun.

🇨🇦🇬🇱🇩🇰 Red and white. In the fight against the big fat 🍊.

The theatrics in the American congress its just incredible. It’s like a personal wank-fest of the 🍊. Some ridiculous rhetoric. What’s super interesting to me is whether this shit ends up with a third term. If that happens, and there isn’t a civil war in America, then you’re the next dictatorship. Watching this bollocks is just incredible. Mango-Mussolini.

🇺🇦🇵🇸 As an honorary Canadian, I am proud to be firmly against the United States in supporting both Ukraine and Palestine. In both cases the aggressor is clear. The 🍊 is a complete fool who is fundamentally unqualified for the role that he is in. Words and actions have weight and this guy clearly hasn’t got a fucking clue.

The 🍊 is showing what a real asshole he is eh? If you shake his hand, check for the number of fingers left…

Seth’s take on the Canadian reaction to Trump’s embarrassing (and complete lack of understanding of how the world fucking works) is why I’m happy to be in Canada - even in the face of economic warfare from an absolute melon, erm sorry 🍊, they have class, something the 🍊lacks in every aspect.

Listening to the Canadian reaction to the 🍊’s stupid tariffs. I’ve always cheered for the underdog (it’s more fun that way) and make no mistake, Canada is definitely the underdog here. This reminds me a little of that idiot Liz Truss, totally inept and unqualified for the position she found herself in. The 🍊 showing his ineptitude.

Reading The Message by Ta-Nehesi Coates is a really difficult read. Not for how it’s written but the parallels it draws between black America and what is happening in Palestine at the hands by the Israelis. If a nation has done these things to people in its own borders, why are we surprised that it would support the same actions somewhere else.

Honestly America, you guys bringing the deranged 🍊 back into my newsfeed is just a dick move. Now whenever this old idiot has a brain fart and says stupid shit like he’s taking over Canada, Panama Canal and Greenland, it’s everywhere.

🍊 I got to say a big thank you ‘Merica for making everyone bend the knee to the tangerine. First up. Justin Trudeau. Feels more real this time that I am actually living in Canada.

If you’re wondering what the next few weeks are going to look like for your countries, these graphs from Our World in Data offer some sobering insight. The only good thing coming out of America at the moment is Governor Cuomo who seems to have his shit together, unlike the tangerine 🍊.

Woke up this morning to the news of the death of Iranian General Qasem Soleimani. I fear that shit just got very real. We will not feel the ramifications of this action until much later. The truth is, all my fear about putting the 🍊 one in the White House are starting to materialise.

I think it’s important to remember that this current wave of escalation all began with America pulling out of the Iran Nuclear deal that used diplomacy rather than drones to control the situation. That was the action of someone who doesn’t understand international diplomacy and still lives in the 1950s. None of this was necessary. None of what is likely going to happen was necessary. If you think that this is the end of it and that Iran won’t do something in retaliation, then clearly you’ve not been paying much attention.
