This is one of the most important threads I’ve read in the last year. Maybe more.

@PaulDoroshenko hits the ball out of the park!

This is exactly what we need to do.

And remember, Harper stacked public service with loyalists. RCMP, judiciary, senate, government departments.

We need Denazification in Canada too!

There can be no tolerance for intolerance.

Many are opining about free speech. In Canada we have freedom of expression and it comes with some caveats. Harmful hate speech is not free.

We have been inundated with hate speech for decades.
It must stop. We must remove the fascists from power and eradicate the platforms they use to build support.

I’ve taught both my children by age 9 what fascism is and what it looks like. I can be done.

School based education is a must to nullify hatred.
But what about the adults? First we remove the ability to indoctrinate through the internet. Mainstream media needs to be purged of nazi sympathizers. And the internet needs regulation. Because some people cannot be trusted to refrain from hate speech.
You got a problem with restrictions on speech, take a look at the US where any form of speech is free. Lying, disinformation, promotion of hatred and psychological manipulation propaganda. And the result is January 6, 2021 attempted “patriot” insurrection.
Our tinder is already soaked in gasoline. Removing those from power who continue to lob lit matches at the tinder is essential to our survival,as a nation and a species. We don’t allow the patients to run the asylum. Violent insurrection is what happens when you do.
And we MUST tackle religious freedom. We need clear understanding of the political aims of religious institutions. When churches teach their parishioners that all who think differently are agents of Satan, that’s intolerance unable to be tolerated.
There are political ramifications for teaching that everyone who doesn’t believe the bible is the actual word of god is going to hell and following Satan’s command. It allows those who believe this to completely dehumanize those who fall in this category.
We need clear definitions to delineate cult from faith.

Cults can not be allowed to spread their ideology. Cults are not religious institutions. They are dangerously subversive organizations that seek to subsume the mainstream culture and impose theocratic autocracy.
That’s not religious freedom that respects all other faiths and non-faith. And there is no room for dissent. Only obedience. Or expulsion from the protections of civil society.
Pick a church, any Dominionist church will do. There is no room to question what these churches deem gods commands. Strict homogenous adherence to Dominionist dogma is the only accepted choice.

But remember, this is not every church.
Much like Muslim extremists have radicalized significant portions of the Muslim world, Christian extremists have been doing the same.

Using the same techniques. Online recruitment and in person reinforcement of cult beliefs.
Every one of the churches that has ignored covid protocols, public health measures and orders is Dominionist. And yes, I’ve checked.

That’s where the indoctrination of cult ideology occurs. And why these Dominionist faith institutions are desperate to keep meeting in person.
The danger of covid is irrelevant. Without constant reinforcement of cult beliefs and values, cult leaders lose their hold on cult members.

The entire premise of cult control is abandonment of critical thinking and adoption of blind obedience.
That state of being is not natural for human beings. So it requires continuous reinforcement of those beliefs and values and pressure to obey, not think about what god, or the supreme leader as represented by the cult leader, asserts as truth.
Christian Nationalism is how this political movement has been shaped and moulded. There are deep connections through faith institutions to every Dominionist parish and their parishioners. These cults prey on the vulnerable. This is not fringe.
I can’t count how many churches are adopting Dominionist dogma. There are that many of them.

Leslyn Lewis was almost elected leader of CPC because of this faction of the Conservative party. Close to 90 MPs are Dominionist Christians.
In Alberta, Jason Kenney is a Dominionist Christian. And about 50 of his MLAs are as well.

They’ve gone mainstream. This is no joke or fringe element.

So we must include denazification of all faith institutions in the effort to rebalance western society towards democracy.
Religious hierarchies are fundamentally un-democratic.

Where has all the admiration for autocratic governance come from? Dominionist Churches and faith institutions.

We address it regardless of the taboo or suffer the this same fate somewhere down the road.
“There is nothing to fear but fear itself.” FDR

This is an appropriate time to reference boot straps being pulled up and girding loins.

We have much work to do and unwilling participants. You’re going to need those boots. There is a lot of shit ahead to wade through.

ENTITLEMENT. https://t.co/PmdZEUd3us


Seems conservatives have an overdeveloped sense of entitlement.

How does it feel to the average Albertan to be considered second class? Apparently UCP, CPC and other conservatives across Canada are exempt from COVID public health orders.

I wonder if that means anti maskers are first class citizens? What about church pastors and parishioners? Are they first class status too?

But teachers, physicians, police, first responders, grocery workers, and every other Albertan is considered second class.

We don’t get exemptions to avoid public health orders.

What kind of government flouts law and order?


This is not explained by the confused and poorly informed “freedom” focussed Q’Anon and the fanatical Evangelical Christian’s who evidently can’t manage to worship at home.

These are fully informed political aids and politicians. Refusing to be limited by public health orders.
As we wait for the transition of power from despot to democrat, Facebook (Zuckerberg) has taken it upon itself to aid in the obstruction of that power transfer, facilitation of an insurrection narrative and disregard for the will of the American electorate.


In other words, the Social Media monopoly Facebook commands globally has gone full fascist in an attempt to preserve the corrupt and criminal hold on power by Republicans and Trump Administration.

Aiding and abetting a coup d’état.

As if there weren’t enough other reasons to dismantle Facebook’s monopoly, Zuckerberg is playing his cards and revealing clearly that Cambridge Analytica election interference was not just a onetime anomaly, but is now a feature of Facebook’s business model.

Megalomaniac Marc has now revealed the true colours of Fascist Facebook.

Facebook is a weapon to manipulate the masses. A tool to carry out disinformation campaigns with impunity.

And the response of the left... is to delete their Facebook account.

As if the deletion of a Facebook account will do anything. It might send a message that your virtues are principled, your morality superior. But it enables the weapon to be continued to gaslight and manipulate the electorate.

An inherent flaw in the left’s critical thinking.

Caveat: This article is sourced from @Daily_Express !!!

"End of Sturgeon?"

Frankly, an appropriate response from @NicolaSturgeon might be to quote the infamous Mark Twain response to an erroneous 'obituary' known to all...

"The reports of my demise are greatly exaggerated."

https://t.co/Ce1xVVISR2

More accurately, the media have quoted:

"Ms Sturgeon said she had a “real job to do” and was focused on guiding Scotland through the Covid-19 pandemic."

It's very reassuring to hear that @scotgov and @ScotGovFM have prioritised safeguarding lives and Scotland, above all else.

"I’ll leave others to play games or politics. I have got a real job to do and people can decide themselves whether I am doing it well or not, but I am absolutely 100 per cent focused on leading this country through a pandemic."

💯% 😀👍

Making her priorities crystal clear!

“That’s what I’ve done since this time last year and it’s what I’m going to continue to do for absolutely as long as necessary.”

And again, making it absolutely crystal clear!
