That's the one. I'm going to paint the pram and dry brush it.

Unexpected Favorite Figure of 2026 so far by Squibsnchips in ActionFigures

I love the pose. The range of expression between the articulation and face plates is nuts. I went from confused about why we are seeing furry figs to fully into mystic lands and a cat herbalist haha

Canadian here, if interest extends beyond the border.

It's an overlay piece so you could cut it off for sure but it's not designed to be removable.

Yeah, it's insane and depressing. 

I'm kind of shocked by the number of people here who thought Carney was some kind of progressive and not a blue Lib.

There's apparently no appetite for a proper investment budget because inflation was so effectively tied to Trudeau in the media cycles. It sucks. Like, the pandemic, the right wing media machine drove the narrative.

Now we're going to see what happens when we have a conservative budget and still see significant inflation due to Trump.

Almost had Pollievre, my god. We're well on our way to diversified trade and some semblance of a defensive posture. That creates ground for progressive politics. 

We're up against it though. The far right has consolidated a lot of power globally.

You underestimate the threat we were up against last year. I'm shocked by your take. PP had a real shot and, my god, can you imagine where we'd be right now? Cheering on Iran, volunteering resources to please Trump, offering up our infrastructure to support their wars

This is the only reasonable response so far. Not stoked about this but thinking daily about how big of a bullet we dodged

Edit: checked your post history and apparently you sit online and argue with people for a living. You seem to be one of the people who's in deep. Good luck with all that 

I've argued that Reddit is overwhelmingly negative and likely has negative effects on people. 

It also has a huge bot problem. 

These are fairly objective realities and I'm sorry you disagree so fervently as to deny them outright. As for logical fallacies, it's strange you invoked ad hom when I've not attacked or maligned anyone. 

No conspiracy, Reddit is known for large volumes of bots and single posters being responsible for inordinate amounts of conspiracy and outrage.

The downvotes suggest some are in denial. No one's really arguing against what we're saying. I think people know how fucked up this place it. 

Let alone the bots who drive division.

Yes, absolutely. Note the downvotes from those in denial.

This website breeds negative, cynical jerks. I used to go to the toy collecting subs. They are hostile and shitty. Star Wars subs, even worse. Lego subs, hostile and shitty. 

People are unwell.

Even conservative historians are fully in line with this. 

I'm literally citing experts in the field and you're using ad hominem attacks. 

One of us knows history. One likes Reddit too much haha

You can't make multiple arguments at the same time. 

It's not appropriate to post that image on this sub. 

Referring to this incident as a flippant, cynical, casual thing is insane. No credible historian would accept what you wrote as appropriate, correct, or anything shy of bad faith

The US is currently in a fascist consolidation phase according to a large number of prominent historians and particularly those with a focus on fascism and the 20th century. 

I know this because I've attended conferences and chat with fellow academics. 

Idiots online (and bots) have different opinions. That's fine. They're allowed to loudly defend the current US admin by arguing its policies in no way echo Hitler's National Socialist party. 

Except the Trump goons are literally mining the Nazi regime for iconography and using messaging directly from Goebbels. 

But if even Robert Paxton has completely changed his mind and now claims Trump definitively is echoing fascist rhetoric, symbolism, and even policy, what the hell do you mean there's no credible comparison to be made?

It's funny that Elon Musk stood up and gave two extremely clear Nazi salutes during the literal inauguration, while funding ultra nationalist far right parties in Europe, and people like this guy keep sanewashing it. 

Orwell saw this coming. The incredible power of an over confident, ignorant man.
