Canadian cosmonaut desperate for comrades in the worst province.

Yes, the dogs are also communists.

  • Planned Obsolescence Is the fault of Unions apparently, also China

    Jump

  • I think my step dad’s mentality is that because unions demand wage increases and benefits, that means that companies are spending more on paying workers rather than paying for higher quality materials/products. He also complains about how expensive things are nowadays and attributes that to unions as well.

    Jump

  • Oh yes, Canada has a terrible history regarding unions. The population used to be very unionized way back in the early 20th century but government crackdowns and propaganda had union building take a steep nosedive. It’s been like that forever and hasn’t really improved.

    I don’t recall encountering any anti-union sentiment through school, I’ve only ever heard it from people around. I never grew up with the sentiment either due to my dad being union and seeing how strikes work on TV.

    I think my step dad’s animosity must come from his family because my step grandpa has stated his disdain for the teacher’s and healthcare worker strikes that have happened recently and even years ago too.

    Canadians (the settlers specifically) are just very weird and as bad as Americans but with a self righteous flavour.

  • Not at all! My bio dad and step dad get along very well! They don’t talk about work like that either so I don’t even think my step dad knows about my dad’s union.

  • Broke my heart seeing the news this morning. Such an inspiring comrade and amazing historian. He is now in the Great Lecture Hall in the Sky.

  • Trump threatens Carney at Davos: ‘Canada lives because of the US’

    Jump

  • I would love for more investment into the public sphere but the provinces are annoying. I can’t see places like Alberta further investing in healthcare when they are purposefully privatizing everything.

    Trump does talk a big game but is very slow to follow through fully, which is not a bad thing.

  • 8 of the top 10 universities worldwide are now in China

    Jump

  • Is Harvard really that good?

  • Trump threatens Carney at Davos: ‘Canada lives because of the US’

    Jump

  • Where does Canada go from here? First Carney’s speech and now this? My mind is fucking reeling and I do not know what is going to happen or what the best course of action is.

    Obviously pivoting away from the US, but that also “provokes” invasion (which would be a mistake since they are spreading themselves thin already by threatening war with several other countries).

    The year has barely started and it already has me like this:

  • Donald Trump announces he will begin ground attacks on Mexican territory.

    Jump

  • I always felt that the only way the US would change for the better is through war on US soil. I do not want that to happen but considering the history of that country, it’s the only language that is listened to. I probably sound terrible, but I just do not know how else to word this.

  • Donald Trump announces he will begin ground attacks on Mexican territory.

    Jump

  • Okay so this is terrifying. I feel like we are nosediving into something incredibly big but I also do not want to sound paranoid. Is the US really willing to fight a war with Mexico? Right at the US border?

  • Why has modern fandom developed a sort-of purity culture?

    Jump

  • I have been in the fandom space for many years, since I was a young teenager, and in my experience I have only ever see this discourse happen on twitter (it happens on Tumblr too but to a much lesser extent). I wonder if it has to do with COVID, more people came online and I know there has been an uptick in media literacy issues which adds to the problem.

    I see people, specifically fandom “veterans”, talk about how a lot of “normal” fans got involved in fandom spaces during COVID and it led to clashes as people do not seem to understand the etiquette. I do not like using the word “normal,” but its the only term I can think of to describe people who watch TV/movies/read books and then move on (those that don't read fanfic, make/like fanart, peruse forums and whatnot).

  • Sect of state Marco Rubio confirms Cuba is next on the list of governments the Trump regime is planning to overthrow. This is empire. This is modern day colonialism.

    Jump

  • Canada’s response to the US bombing Venezuela was as lukewarm as one can get, stating that they hate Maduro’s “criminal regime” and boasting about sanctions while also saying that he US should follow international law. Canadians are just hoping to not b officially annexed, some even want to join the US so there’s that. It’s a weird ass country.

  • Folks, I think this Xi Jingping guy might be a 'dirty communist'. what do you think?

    Jump

  • “Sissy men?” What do they mean 😭

  • ‘It’s completely out of control’: Scientists warn bird flu could spark a human pandemic in 2026 | BBC Science Focus Magazine

    Jump

  • I feel like Canadians will not handle a bird flu pandemic well considering how people reacted to the culling of an Ostrich farm in BC due to the presence of avian flu.

    Canadian chud media went insane framing this culling as an evil act by the government when it was unfortunately necessary due to the threat that this virus causes.

    If the government tries to enforce a bird flu pandemic protocol then I am sure people will go as insane as they did during COVID’s initial phases.

  • Russia Establishes Day of Remembrance for Victims of Genocide of Soviet People

    Jump

  • I do not know why I am surprised by this move as Russia has been leaning into its Soviet past more and more (good), but I am.

  • Madeline Pendleton is my favorite Tiktok creator, but she gets so much hate online. It is insane.

    Jump

  • I believe they got hate before but it really exploded when they exposed that the Democrats were paying TikTok creators to spread good PR without disclosing that they were, in fact, being paid to do so. This made many people come out to attack them and it just never stopped. Now that they know Madeline exists they attack everything she says. The most recent discourse has been about Madeline’s defence of the DPRK.

    She called out a leftist creator because he was supporting state department propaganda about the DPRK and now everybody is running around claiming that Madeline said that this guy was directly killing North Koreans when what she was actually saying is that he was contributing to USA state lies that harm the North. This shit will never stop and thankfully Madeline has thick skin.

    █████@lemmy.ca: As a Canadian teacher, I’ve met so many Ukrainian refugee families and seen the result of the trauma caused by the Russian invasion first hand.

    Jump

  • I’m so glad you said this because i have had this thought for so long. Just read the comments on Canadian social media, I swear it’s more fascistic than USAmericans. It’s really bad up here.

  • So... How is everyone's christmas eve going?

    Jump

  • Snowed like crazy and it was cold as hell but I slayed at the party games. My niece and nephew loved their gifts but they did get into a few toddler fist fights which I had to break up. The food was also fantastic and I brought home a large casserole dish full of leftovers.

    Some of my family were annoying but that’s normal coming from those specific individuals, I just had to do my best to ignore them. It wasn’t even political, just them arguing and also poking fun at me because it’s easy.
