When simulation becomes the norm, it weakens the human capacity for discernment. As a result, our social bonds close in upon themselves, forming self-referential circuits that no longer expose us to reality. We thus come to live within bubbles, impermeable to one another. Feeling threatened by anyone who is different, we grow unaccustomed to encounter and dialogue. In this way, polarization, conflict, fear and violence spread. What is at stake is not merely the risk of error, but a transformation in our very relationship with truth.
Hey White House, please remove the Tropic Thunder clip. We never gave you permission and have no interest in being a part of your propaganda machine. War is not a movie.
The last book Jeffrey Epstein bought was The Serious Guide to Joke Writing: How to Say Something Funny About Anything. The second last book that Jeffrey Epstein bought was Spinoza's Theological-Political treatise:
It is with humility and appreciation that I have accepted Damien Kurekβs offer to resign his seat in Battle River-Crowfoot so that I can work to earn the support of citizens there to serve them in Parliament.
Damienβs selfless act to step aside temporarily as a Member of Parliament shows his commitment to change and restoring Canadaβs promise.
I will work to earn the trust of the good people of Battle River-Crowfoot and I will continue to hold the Liberal minority government to account until the next federal election, when we will bring real change to all Canadians.
