Interesting how the #cdnmedia is mostly crickets about how a #NatPost contributor was just ordered to pay over a million in damages for comparing a climate scientist to a molester, one of their classic go-to tactics.

If the damages get upheld it could have a chilling effect in only the best of ways.

@georgetakei she ruined their sportsball.

I hate Bill Ackman because he got away with doing exactly what Shkreli did, despite doing it at a far larger scale.

If he cured cancer tomorrow he’d still have a deficit of karma.

We have no idea how many lives were lost as a result of his work at Valeant, but it isn’t zero.

That’s the cold reality of it.

Netanyahu isn’t going to negotiate for a simple reason: he’s out the minute the war ends.

His trial is still pending and his coalition is already poised to break up and force an election over too many broken promises to too many fringe electorates with nothing in common.

If he’s not PM he gets convicted. He’s very motivated to keep killing.

Nationalism is a monstrous, abhorrent ideology. There are no exceptions.

No, your nation isn’t special. Sorry.

(This was my pinned tweet for years. Time for it to be my pinned toot.)

I hope everyone is following that #Tesla sympathy strike in Scandinavia because it’s getting even better by the day.

Norwegian unions have now joined Swedish and Danish ones.

The Danish pension fund has announced its going to dump it’s Tesla shares.

Finnish unions are talking about joining.

And now this:

There is quite literally no evidence that this is true, and yet they keep repeating it.

My hat goes off to those Swedish dockworkers refusing to unload Teslas until they negotiate with their local employees.

Incredible solidarity.

A couple of years ago Berlin abolished corporate landlords and expropriated approx. a quarter of a million apartments.

You know why you never hear about it? Because it worked.
