@alt_ccc I feel like the Liberals are to the left of establishment Ds, at least the Justin Trudeau liberals. Carbon tax, uUN deceleration, saying he'll arrest Bibi, v high levels of social spending (comparatively)...

What are some good things to read to understand Pierre Elliot Trudeau

@lilbabygandhi My point is x country doing bad thing doesn't mean you should act negatively to *all* that country's citizens, unless those citizens are overwhelmingly pro it 25% of Americans support annexing Canada, and most of those coming to Canada obviously aren't going to be among them

@BrexitFromNATO True!

I fucking love anglophile Americans

RT @caffeine_victim: "Smith should run for the leader of our country!"

@NeoReaganism Rachel Reeves, Chris Smith (former cabinet minister), Hilary Clinton

When you see a 🌐, get ready to see the most delusional take on US national identity you've ever seen

John Fetterman and Kamala Harris above Wes Moore and Andy Beshear 💀💀💀

@CoKeynesian What is the source for this? Seems dubious to me that ie ketamine is closer in danger to cocaine than to alcohol

TIL that the Republican Speaker of the House from 1999-2007, Dennis Hastert, was imprisoned shortly after leaving office and charged with illegal payments of $1.7 million made to a boy he had sexually abused while employed as a High School teacher

@Aurelian985 @NeoReaganism Are Bangladesh lying too?

By the standards of the time, Britain was a much more responsible world hegemon than America

@NeoReaganism Weirdly enough, all the statistics I can find for the UK are disposable while all the ones for US African-Americans are non-disposable. In raw terms its quite likely, but adjusted for prices and working hours defo not, esp if you're using median

Retweet to scare an American who unironically uses the term "Europoor"
