I really wonder what Canadian capitalist are thinking. I guess their thoughts are to try to keep Canadian politics as "Liberal" as possible to avoid growing anti American sentiment along with anti capitalist sentiment (something that obviously goes hand in hand). I'd guess they are trying to avoid that connection and working to maintain national solidarity in place of what could very quickly be class solidarity if they are not careful.

Because at the end of the day the capitalist class of Canada is essentially just an extension of US capital. And I'm not saying this in an "Americas hat" kind of way. It's just how global capital works and even more so with Canada because of its geographical proximity.

I worry the capitalist in Canada are working to ensure the "pro Canada anti-American" politicians are well within their hands. And when the point comes to squeeze the working class of Canada harder it will likely be done through the means of "Canadian Nationalism"; and ensuring the masses view their suffering as a fault of "America" and not for what it really is; an attack in both countries on the working class.

I mean if you're gonna reply with such little substance just don't reply at all mate.

If Mamdani loses the general that should be a wake up call to Americans that even the illusion of their democracy is dead. The man behind the curtain isn't even hiding anymore.

Meaning, if Mamdani loses it is only because the full forces of the capitalist class from both of their parties were able win.

You seem to think that there is some major difference between New York and some southern town in Georgia for example. And to many degrees there are. But it's not because the people have fundamentally different wants and goals. The people throughout this country want a good job, a place to live, healthcare, and an end to wars of the empire. The major difference between them is how their concent is manufactured.

The difference isn't in policy or even in politics. The difference is in the ability to break through the existing lies they are distracted by. Racism, xenophobia, queerphobia, etc.

Most working class people in America will be open to progressive policies when they see them actually implemented successfully in major blue cities.

I'm not saying to run as a socialist in Savannah, GA. I'm saying that we do not give away ground. We continue to push for further leftists politicians like Mamdani where we can win. And that will literally shift the entire nations politics.

These are the only wins we can hope for in electoral politics right now. Because by the time we're voting for another president it's going to be to late. The fascist state will have been fully established.

I'm talking about the normalization of Islamphobia that followed. Racism towards Arabs in this country has reached the point of 1930s Germany and it's antisemitism.

You not easily recognizing it isn't your fault. But you denying it and playing defense for it is absolutely your fault. Do better.

You're not wrong. America has used Gaza as a testing ground for their suppression and terror on population. The biggest difference is that Palestinians are united against their occupiers and even still are resisting the fascist Ethnostate of Israel. They have perfected their terror in drone and AI weapons.

We, we are not united. And we have too many liberals standing on the sidelines hoping the next vote will make things normal again.

I think being born during the time of 9/11 has broken your and many Americans brains. Muslim fear mongering and racism is such a fundamental part of America that you can't seem to recognize how insane what she said was.

So much so that a half ass "apology" like she gave is enough for you I guess.

Dude. We got Nazi style concentration camps being built in the US and the news reporting on some "we'll get him with the #lawsuit guys!"

Holy shit. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. How many lawsuits is this guy gonna rubber/glue before the liberals call for a real movement.

How we don't have democratic politicians calling for general strikes and mass protests? It really goes to show how much of a passive and useless party they have and continue to be.

They are still acting like the system that has allowed the fascist to take power is the same system that will bring that back out of power? Like, holy fuck. Stop pretending like this system works.

The courts work for Trump. They're not gonna be the thing that takes him down.

I've heard people had luck with Tailscale playing nicely with non Plex options. I can't say I've tried it. Though I do use Tailscale. Essentially if you setup Tailscale for Grandma it'll be like she's sitting on your local network. Even better, set it up on her router and you can literally debug all her Internet problems if you can ping it.

Beyond that a raspberry pi with a battery backup on a 4G subscription connected to the router. That would be the ultimate "grandma" setup. Connect her router/modem power to remote power cycle. But I digress.

For some reason I get permission errors on jellyfin every time I use it. Never with Plex. I've gone through the steps to fix it before. But when you change your shit as much as I do. I just stay with Plex because it's plug and play. And I have the pass. I don't have the time to fuck with stupid shit with jellyfin.

It's not a conspiracy theory mate. Republicans do it all the time. Signal racism and then say "oh I didn't mean it like that".

That's all she's done. She just did it with the liberal aesthetic you enjoy.

Notice how she apologized for "mischaracterizing" and for her tone? Yeah. Because she know she would do that.

The entire point is to mischaracterize the position and spread racist xenophobia. Why can liberals know exactly what this is when conservatives do it to black people but when racist Zionist do it to brown people they think "well, they apologized by saying 'it wasn't totally accurate'"

Don't believe these people trying to fight progress by trying to appeal to Americans racism and xenophobia. They aren't your allies. They aren't good people. They are trying to keep them and their corrupt friends in power. That's it.

Honestly, I don't want their endorsement. Fuck em. This party is getting taken over by the left or we're burning it down.

I think they see the inevitable rise of fascism and don't want to get grabbed by Trump's brown shirts. They're liberals that are being scratched and looking for a safe place in the future.

They didn't even do their typical. "Oh we're against the bombing of Iran but because he didn't go through Congress". I literally was waiting to roll my eyes at all their liberal "following procedure for our war crimes" but they even stayed quiet about it mostly.

We had two parties. Fascist and Liberals. Now we just have fascist and Liberals looking for a safe place in the new power structures. They're kind of confused I think. A little caught off guard with how much Trump is following through on actual policy. They're use to both parties lying and giving working class dollars to the rich. The conservatives are no longer playing the game of politics they all use to love that got nothing done.

Fuck the party leaders and most of these shits in Washington. They have no place now. We don't need their endorsement.

We can win with the momentum. We don't need to win power back through votes. We just need to give this countries people enough hope to build class consciousness. Decades can happen it weeks.
