so it turns out I've been using dog shampoo on my hair for the last few months. (I only discovered it when I ran out and needed to get more.) this is partly my own fault but it doesnt help that @ArmandHammer has the word "pets" in like 4-pt typeface. I'm guessing this is common pic.twitter.com/SHEaDrEW7J

these really are epic times
Michael Kovrig worked for the International Crisis Group when he was arrested in China. The Crisis Group seems like a run-of-the-mill neoliberal think tank, with the board consisting of a hilarious who's who of neoliberal characters from Bush advisors to George Soros. And their research is pretty tames. Nothing seemed to stand out to me... Everything just felt like some New Global World Order shit. But they also recently received a substantial 4.7$MM grant from Charles Kock to fund a new project "the American Statecraft Program – including staff, events, and research activities aimed at better shaping and defining a more restraint-oriented foreign policy". So clearly they're up to something if they're working with someone as outlandishly ghoulish as Charlie
I wonder why China nabbed him specifically. I'm sure Chinas has a list of a hundred of dumb-ass canadians doing either illegal shit or spy shit they could use as a pawn. Was Kovrig up to no good? Or was he just an honest man caught up in a game of teaching kkklanada a lesson?
Or did China nab these two guys specifically because they wanted to say "the two michaels" like every western rag is doing right now?
lo posted:i wonder if the the canadian falun gong and ukranian nazi communities hang out sometimes, have a failson dissident pot luck or whatever
all of these expat fasc groups hate everyone else, each other and themselves. the only way they ever get anything done is by surfing on a wave of government cash while cops tenderly hold their hips steady from behind, they don't have the social ability to do it on their own.
left ukranian diaspora in my city (there's a lot of them) have told me at length about all the blood sweat and tears they put into building cultural community centers, documenting historical information, preserving stories, resisting the klassic kold subtle kkkanadian racism that abused them for decades, with absolutely no support, and then saw the children of nazis spring up overnight with six figure jobs chairing glitzy well funded Cultural Museums full of NATO propaganda.
