Alberta gonna 'berta I guess.
Seriously though, the UCP needs to get an urgent divorce from US Republican extremists before they crash the whole province (and then proceed to blame it on Ottawa. Again.)
I’m really hoping the NDP can flip Calgary next election and we can climb out of the mess the rural vote has put us in. It’s getting bad.
My biggest concern is that the UCP get a new boogeyman out of that, like how they are treating Notley.
I wish journalists would stop pulling punches on headlines. “Making up facts” is lying.
Alberta Conservatives Are
Making Up Their OwnFabricating Lies About Climate ChangeFactsI think we’ll start to see progressives abandoning traditional media companies soon for this as well.
Even CBC really contorts the headlines in attempts to keep things moderate. I understand there’s a certain need to do keep thing civil but it shouldn’t come at a sacrifice of factual reporting.
The Alberta desert will be lovely.
Edit: Relative to past years:
(No one gets out alive)
Not even sure what that’s supposed to mean relative to past. A lot of the Canadian Prairie is only slightly above desert levels of precipitation historically.
Edit: was edited to give some context, at least. All I had seen was the first image which meant fuck-all.
Yeah, this is pretty useless without context. The colour coding should be a delta to historical averages, not an absolute number.
well sure, because as the republiQans have just demonstrated - nothing matters and what if it did.
We’re embarking on the final liquidation of humanity–we’re all getting sold out to temporarily satiate the greed of a few. Hooray 🥴🎉 the only comfort i can take from it is that the fucked planet will eventually be difficult if not impossible for them and their offspring to inhabit
It is always funny to me when people post comments like this acting like this is the first societal collapse our species has ever had.
This endgame has played out so many times it is boring to watch.
I’m all for this not being the endtimes, fwiw – just has that kinda feeling but wtf do i know. I’ve never experienced endtimes before so maybe I’m way off and climate change + rise of fascism is normal and not a sign of the decline of humanity or whatever. I’m excited to find out, lol
Don’t get it twisted, humanity is in decline. The evidence is abundant and apparent. But that does not mean we are in “the end times” of our species.
The most likely thing to happen is another round of eat the rich followed by a good idea to move forward with that will eventually bloat to the point of collapse. Rinse and repeat.
The rise of Fascism is just the last stop before the Train turns around.
