Trump-aligned congresspeople aren’t spreading wildfire disinformation in a vacuum; American social media giants are enabling a haze of conspiracy theories and misinformation about the wildfires ravaging Canadian forests, and are disguising the fossil fuel industry's role in the crisis, researchers have found.

Canadian far-right is Trump. It’s the same people, the same playbook, the same goals. There’s no difference.

  • propaganda
  • elections cheating
  • a lot more propaganda
  • fascism

Count on it.

    Definitely same funding sources and playbook. If you can look to the south and say to yourself "Yeah, I want that" I personally think you should leave. This planet would be nice, but I'll settle for this country. We don't want you here.
