The violence in this video is disturbing. You’ll witness death chants, a scaffold with noose, a shooting and an officer suffering intense trauma from being crushed.
To realize the extent of the treason committed on January 6, 2021, please watch this video.

And then remember Canadian, especially Albertan, conservatives are moving in this direction and have been supportive of Trump’s cabal, since the beginning.

How mentally warped must you be to calmly sit down with drinks and bar snacks after attempting a violent coup?
As the investigation unfolds around the attempted coup, the actual plans are revealed to be meticulously planned and diabolical in nature.
People in Calgary and Red Deer were demonstrating in support of the attempted coup.
It’s no secret that effigies of Trudeau are hung on a regular basis in some areas of Alberta. Failure to address this behaviour has provided tacit approval.
It’s a matter of time before this explodes in violent insurrection here in Alberta. It’s no longer a possibility, it’s assured.
Alberta is burgeoning to explode in ideological motivated violence as well.
Are Alberta based miscreants planning attacks on those who seek to hold the UCP responsible for their policy decisions?
Why no one wants to acknowledge that is beyond my comprehension.
Coal mining threatens the water source of most of the province.
And that’s only the beginning. Kenney has big plans to “expand the economy.” And shrink personal taxes through privatization.
At Christmas, UCP put out a Christmas message alluding to divine support for their agenda.
Many of the domestic terrorists believe they have divine support. So they stormed the Capitol.
It’s similar narratives with similar objectives. To consider it otherwise in the modern political landscape would be extremely foolish.
Trumpism (which we found out on January 6 is actually just modern fascism) is already alive and flourishing in Canada.

A lot of people are trying to figure out what UCP means by putting this biblical quote out into the twitter verse at Christmas.
Many have piped up with commentary and criticized the mix of religion and politics. A convention long held in Canada.
The quote is often repeated at Christmas. “A child is born...” makes reference to the birth of Jesus. Makes sense.
But what does it mean?
Christians (and other religious observers with their religious texts) have made an art form out of interpreting what passages mean.
To those most radically devout (some might say zealously faithful), hidden divine meanings are gleaned from “correctly” reading the bible.
That’s what Dominionists believe. That god himself wrote the bible. Through inspiration of the actual authors, & only they can interpret.
And thus, the “inerrant“ bible serves as a strict road map to save ones soul.
Many devout Christians view the passage as a prophecy made centuries before the birth of Christ. A promise made by god through one of his prophets. Jews interpret the passage very differently.
The Anglican Priest is (obviously) correct about this being supersessionism, and a form of Anti-Semitism.
Troublesome as it is for a Canadian provincial govt to be tweeting out Anti-Semitic propaganda, that’s not the only meaning this passage has for Dominionist Christians.

As a Priest and Bishop-Elect, I\u2019d ask that the UCP send Christmas greetings without the wholly inappropriate inference of divine sanction for their government. There are so many things wrong with their use of these words from the Prophet Isaiah it\u2019s hard to know where to start. https://t.co/rwOxVzvnI5

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.
If you thought disinformation on Facebook was a problem during our election, just wait until you see how it is shredding the fabric of our democracy in the days after.

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.

Denazification was the official term to describe the processes to de-platform nazis from all aspects of German society after the war.

It was effective.
Now the US must do the same.

Still believe Calgary protests are peaceful?
Not so much!
Not since Calgary police began enforcing the public health edict for masks and for gatherings.
Pair this violent Calgary protest with this opinion piece.
Is it any wonder that “liberty” ideologues are rebelling against Public Health Measures after the premier gave them every indication their freedom was superior to everyone else’s right to
We have evidence that Kenney is instigating STOCHASTIC TERRORISM.
This is what Trump is currently using to effect a coup in the US.
Maybe a journalist can ask Kenney why he stoked the ire of far right immediately prior to ordering a lockdown?
https://t.co/Ypw27JKeE1
As Albertans, we are unfamiliar with the tactics used by fascists. Albertans are naive to subterfuge and sedition.
Stochastic terrorism is common in eastern European nations. Russia & Al Qaida use these tactics all the time, but with much more regularity, brutality & deaths.
Here’s an article from 2011. Spelling out the process of creating a “missile” or “lone wolf” by appealing to those individuals who are mentally unstable. Experts have known how stochastic terrorism works for well over a decade.

For a few weeks I’ve been wondering about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and just how she emerged as a politico. Her path to Washington is shocking, at the very least. My first question was: What were her campaign positions BEFORE she became a national figure?

So I went to her campaign website and took that web address and looked through the internet archive. When I went back to 2017, it was not her website, it belonged to the group "Brand New Congress."

Here's what the web address https://t.co/Uhz2q4Dpll looks like now:

Here's what the same web address looked like in late 2017:

What's “Brand New Congress?” BNC is a group of Bernie Sanders staffers who got together, decided to make the 2018 midterms all about Bernie policies by taking his ideas & finding 400 Bernie carbon copies to dump into Congressional & other races, creating a 400 headed Bernie.

This idea - that elections should translate into policy - is not wrong at all. But political science can help explain why it's not working this way. There are three main explanations: 1. mandates are constructed, not automatic, 2. party asymmetry, 3. partisan conpetition 1/
