Crazy that it was written by a republican. Though republicans back in that era were much different than the ones today and I think even Herbert was quite unique among them.

Tfw Iran cares more about protecting Canada from American aggression than Canadian leaders

Trump anti-Zionist arc?

I doubt it. Netanyahu will just name one one of the pieces of land he stole in Syria after Trump again and he'll forget all about it and go back to glazing Israel.

Reminds me of an interview I was watching where Michael Hudson was talking about the issue of CPC members (or maybe he was just talking about wealthy Chinese) sending their kids to western schools and warned that this would mean they would learn western economics and bring those ideas back home

Exactly, paraphrasing from another tweet I saw: "Weird how these errors never happen when it's a weapons shipment for Israel"

So is there any chance we see any increase of interest in socialism? If not the US, maybe in EU or Canada? I was kinda hoping after Trump got elected liberals would stop hanging on to their failed ideology, but it seems it's just like 2016 again and they are only capable of being smug or huffing copium on how bad Trump can be.

It feels like they are getting more disillusioned as corps and billionaires are all backing Trump and the Democrat party is basically doing nothing about it (why would they), but I might be expecting too much out of them.

Literal dystopia

Makes sense. The only identity Canadians have is "not american". At least America has the whole history of rebelling against the British empire

Yea I'm starting to develop a rule of thumb where if AI can totally replace something, it probably wasn't that important to begin with

I wonder if it hit this ceiling because there are no more public projects being developed (personal computer, internet etc.) that it could privatize and profit off of and now we're seeing these shitty solution driven technologies that aren't solving any real problems

Most likely not. Last time I checked national polling it had conservatives as the favorite, with Bloc Quebecois as the next highest. I think people see NDP as too closely associated with the liberals.
