... and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar...

There are some good people here and I've enjoyed engaging with a good many of you but it is a Nazi bar and time for me to go. If you wanna chat, toss me a DM and I'll drop you my BSky

@birdpoems I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out."

@andrew_leach I think it's more likely he realized there will not be a change in food prices when the CT is gone.

As such, he needs to slowly moderate and temper his talking points and reverse course to maintain any simulacrum of credibility

I’ve been reflecting on this over the past day or so, and I’ve come to a realization.

Many of my friends on the center-right who are upset with me for making what I believe to be very obvious observations aren’t necessarily angry at me—they’re angry at the implications of what I’m saying.

The idea that neo-Nazism has entered the mainstream, potentially influencing the White House, is so alarming and existentially terrifying that it's easier to lash out at the messenger than confront the reality.

If they accept this, it means that the political home they've invested so much of their identity in, the movement they've championed for years, has become something so morally repugnant that accepting it feels like breaking their own brain.

The cognitive dissonance is overwhelming.

What's striking to me is the selective outrage. Many of these same people are quick to call everyone communists, often with little more than circumstantial evidence.

Yet, when it comes to countless instances of glaringly obvious signs of fascism in their own movement, they either look away or attack those pointing it out.

@mileslunn I would not be happy if Alberta left Canada. Canada would not be better without them.

@MarcLevesqueEco @Prominent_Bryan It wasn't A Nazi salute. It was two. He turns and does it facing the back as well. Full stop.

I have to think a lot of people denying it are doing so because they believed in Musk/that political wing but did not see where it is going and this has cause a morality crisis for them

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@mileslunn I don't have a crystal ball and can't predict the future, but I think I agree with you. Some points vary, but same end result.

I think PP/CPC invested a LOT of political capital in the "Trudeau bad/carbon tax bad" messaging. Their platform has been overtaken by events

@mileslunn Small typo in the last sentence of the first paragraph. You said "off course" and meant "of course".

Would have PMed but can't without subscription.

Still reading :)

I, for one, am looking forward to this.

I do not expect it to change overly partisan minds, but I believe when elections come we should be armed with as much knowledge as we can be to make an informed decision.

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

This is revisionist as fuck

[Anonymous @YourAnonCentral]

NBC, Trump’s long time partner, censored Elon Musk’s Nazi salute.

Top is the censored NBC version and the bottom is the live version.

@prairiecentrist Oh or was it pardoning 1500 J6 terrorists? Or mandating fed workers back into the office?

I'm expecting instead of mass deportations, we'll see mass incarcerations. Their 13th amendment allows duly convicted people to be used for slavery/involuntary servitude.

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@prairiecentrist Was it the sieg heil by the world's richest oligarch who bough the presidency? Or the crypto pump and dump? Or the US withdrawing from WHO and Paris Climate Accord? Or the return of tarrifs on Feb 1? Or trump talking about building something nice in Gaza?

@andrew_leach Well, her tweet aged like a fine glass of raw milk

..... Which incidentally, would likely still be ingested by a chunk of her base

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@dmacpher @DavidABeaudoin @maxfawcett I take back all of the mean things I have ever said about Max

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@RodKahx The community notes are awful

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

Bloody hell, every video or picture of Musk throwing the Nazi salute is being swarmed with Musk Stans and Nazi sympathizers trying to get them community noted.

This place is a hellscape and directly enabled aided in the rise of fascism in the US

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@prairiecentrist 111 > 110

Thats a lot of words for yes ;)

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@prairiecentrist Are you...... speeding???

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@kyleseeback LOO out here just dodging questions and failing to live up to the moment.

@kyleseeback I guess when you don't have policy, you can always resort to name calling and belittling. Thanks for taking the high road.

Kyle, why is Pierre so wishy washy on standing up to Trump? Do you support economic annexation?

[Carbon Tax Tyson 🇨🇦 @Tyson_ftw]

@dmacpher @DavidABeaudoin @maxfawcett Can @maxfawcett even meme?
