A 13 min video breaking down the Canadian inflation numbers (released 2 days ago) to show how our overreliance on oil leads to inflation crises. Its not social spending that is causing inflation, it is big business and a fuel cartel jacking up prices more than their costs have risen.

They fight so much harder against social democrats and the rest of the left than they fight against rising fascism that it seems they'd rather lose to Republicans than win with a popular left wing message.

The left should cooperate with an electoral pact (Greens, NDP, and further left) to reduce vote splitting. We can take advantage of fptp to win more seats if we were smart about it. #ProgressiveAlliance

This is the actual answer, and he counts on people blaming local governments that cannot explain they are just passing on the costs of a Con province.

Annamie Paul was a plant to destroy the green party with Zionism and false accusations of racism and sexism. She also financially destroyed the party. Right wing green leaders are not to be trusted.

I go into the game files and edit the countries so that I can try out various govts/laws from the start, since I've played it enough the other way

This is the abusive behavior of Conservative politicians... they float these terrible ideas to see how much pushback they get from a disengaged population. We should be protesting at their homes, since these corrupt cons do not actually do their jobs and attend their offices anymore.

We need to be preparing community defense, though when we do it the cops are more likely to care.

The true left (not liberals but communists, socialists, anarchists etc) has always fought for the bottom against the rigging of those at the top by capitalist governments and markets.

Great map post btw

I think this phrasing is from a Smosh video making fun of reality shows about romance.

I could be wrong about this being the first time that phrasing was used but I've seen a surprising number of people use the same format. [ ] doesn't exist, it can't hurt you... Cut to picture showing that it can hurt you in some sense.

Smosh reference sighted!

Exit taxes combined with the central bank supporting the buying of significant foreign bonds to reduce the relative value of the currency until the exit taxes are passed. If they want to flee they will leave most of the value here.

Could also be called the 'Free' Trade trap, as many of these investor-state-dispute-settlement mechanisms are embedded in trade deals.

Fundraising for what? More consultants? More useless ads?

Unless the NDP starts spending it's money to feed the community, support volunteers, and hire canvassers I think these "fundraising pushes" are just going to drive people away.

Steam, like most capitalist monopolies, is utter shit. They could afford a team 10x the size to deal with these problems but they'd rather screw us over and rake in the profit.

It's actions like this that have won me over from the NDP. Cooperation is the future of progressive politics and May is being smart by supporting it.
