Infighting And Accusations Fly As Save The Children Convoy Kicks Off First Day Of Protests In Ottawa

My #glowup I was raised #Pentecostal & eventually #Mennonite. #fundamentalism ruled my life with an iron fist - until a series of calamities broke through my #cognitivedissonance. Eventually I divorced religion & set myself free. Now I’m a professional counsellor devoted to helping others on their journey from sacred to secular life. I founded CORT (the conference on religious trauma) & host the Divorcing Religion Podcast.
"This is how fascism takes over a country. The fascists start by driving wedges between citizens, stirring up hate and division over race, religion, gender, and even regionalism. Then they bring in elites who smooth things over, assuring everybody that with them in charge the trains will run on time and everything will be good."

CEOs are hugely expensive. Why not automate them?
If a single role is as expensive as thousands of workers, it is surely the prime candidate for robot-induced redundancy.

Glenn Kirschner:
Donald Trump compromises our national security & then . . . ruminates on being Speaker of the House.
Kirschner:
“If the law was applied as it is intended to be applied, Donald Trump would be in a jail cell detained pending trial”

Thoughts On The Past 24
Embroiled in their own fight with Russian invaders the past 19 months, Ukrainians from President Zelensky down to Ukrainian telegram channels and youTubers have focused their energies on the plight of the Israelis. They have condemned Hamas and pledged their support to Israel.
Some Telegram channels even booted HAMAS supporters.
However, the right-wing Israeli government in the past has NOT expressed the same towards Ukraine.
Hmmmmmm.

Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
