Surely Doug Ford deserves a dishonourable mention. Bike lanes are getting systematically removed ffs

He capitalized on anti-urban sentiment amongst rural folk, anti environmentalism, a fictitious ‘war on cars.’ I’m not sure what else. Most of what he does these days is give away (ie, privatize) parts of this province to his corporate buddies

There’s an idiotic and corrupt conservative provincial (state) leader who made it into some BS election issue, and he is removing the bike lanes against the will of much of the city where the bike lanes actually are

I felt there was some value in not blocking you to see your geopolitical posts. I thought there was like 1 interesting idea in there for every 10 ones of (very) questionable veracity. But I draw the line at normalizing hate. Idk if you’re a moron, or you just play one (edit for less ableism: stupid or just pretend to be) on social media; ie, do you produce misinformation or disinformation?

For those that want to assess for themselves the level of anti-LGBTQ+ in Russia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGBTQ_rights_in_Russia

I hate Putin for his illegal invasion of Ukraine and all the suffering that has caused

(edit: and his very anti-LGBT+ policies. There may be more I should hate him for, but I’m not that informed. My main point is that I can articulate reasonable and rational hatred for Putin without invoking propaganda or conspiracy theories)

Your comment reminds me of something I was thinking this morning, which is that the US is becoming a lot like Russia. Military power. Keen to invade other countries and flout international law. Oligarchs run everything. Everyday people becoming poorer and less powerful. Country is increasingly detested by other nations and their populaces

It might make a difference as to whether a group can obtain status as a charitable organization or not (edit: Not supporting any candidates, that is. I can’t comment on the lack of a Wiki - that seems like it’d be a good thing)
