Canada is part of five eyes and is functionally a US vassal. There's little difference between a Canadian tech company and an American tech company.
This also goes for most NATO countries

You're seeing the consequences of young people growing up during COVID. It is very, very difficult to unlearn what we were socialized for in our youth.
For most people who experience this, it literally is too late to change their ways. It's possible but requires extreme effort and likely years of therapy.
There's no amount of well meaning aphorisms older generations can pull out to make this better. It is a public mental health crisis and needs to be treated as such, not treated as individual failure.
Back when everyone was glazing Carney for his whole "neo-liberalism is dead" speech, I said that talk is cheap and that everyone who believed in a fucking banker saving us from liberalism is just being fooled by a charismatic guy.
Leftists being proved right again and again never even get the satisfaction of vindication because we're always right, but because nobody listens to us, everything always gets worse.

The judiciary is, by and large, owned and controlled by the ruling class. Don't expect anything resembling justice to come from that system.
It isn't because she isn't in her 80s, it's because she poses the mildest possible threat to entrenched ruling class interests who own and control the entire media landscape, from CBS to CNN to Twitter to TikTok.
The wealthy ruling class would rather move towards fascism than socialism because fascism benefits the ruling class and socialism is a step towards dismantling the ruling class.
A far better alternative is to replace CEOs with democratically organized workplaces, where everyone has an equal say and equal reward. Also known as socialism.
Without doxing myself, I have expertise in this topic. It's not a matter of my world view, it's a matter of science and communication.
It is very unlikely that human adiposity leads to increased cancer risk directly. It is correlational, not causational. Human adiposity itself, isolated from compounding factors, has a complex relationship with health outcomes, and not at all the linear correlation where more fat = more bad that the mainstream likes to pretend.
We know that certain foods, particularly animal products, especially cheaper animal products, lead to cancers, heart disease, etc. This is most likely explanation for the results in this study. But yet again we have yet another study uselessly pointing out a correlation which is unhelpful for actually solving public health issues and continues to encourage the passing of the blame to those in society who have the least responsibility for their situation.
Hate these studies. They're always just based on correlations, and ignores the elephant in the room: class. How wealthy you are, how wealthy the area you live in, those factors have the highest impact on health outcomes, but the mainstream media (which is owned by the ruling class) will never be honest about that. So they just find correlations that let them blame poor people for having shitty diets.
Aww, incapable of defending liberalism without authoritarianism, are we? Classic.
Anyone who wouldn't go with China over Amerisrael a million times over is simply a victim of unbelievable volume of propaganda.
The US is by far the single worst, most oppressive country on the planet and it isn't even close.
