Comedian Rob Schneider says he has cancelled an upcoming visit to Canada in light of last week's incident in which a Ukrainian veteran who fought with a Nazi unit in the Second World War was given a standing ovation in the House of Commons. https://t.co/dIsrAVgFUg
When a union leader can be attacked for being anti-fascist, and then Parliament gives a standing ovation to a literal SS officer, we need to hear clear-throated disavowals of fascism.
Our message in advance of the hateful protests planned for tomorrow:
Speak out. Stand up. Spread love.
We can’t ever stop fighting for queer and trans kids—and all kids—to feel safe and loved. We won’t.
Be safe, friends.

@samreich Good news is you don’t have to go all the way to Edinburgh. There are fringes all over the world. The biggest one in North America is here in Edmonton, Alberta, and feels very much like it’d be your vibe.
@JoshuaPHilll I was an insulated white teen in rural America when 9/11 happened, and this is what it felt like to me. It wasn’t until I was older and more politically aware that I saw how inaccurate my view was.
Rewatching some of the infinity saga and realizing just how many times a man ruins everything by getting too emotional and I dunno guys like not to be sexist but maybe men shouldn’t be in leadership positions if they they can’t make rational decisions????
