US and Russia

It's so funny to see a few US tech plutocrats going whole hog on Alberta separatism, US media fullying buying into the scam, and US O&G companies frothing for one more captured oil rich territory to govern under a de facto dictatorship.

And then the Brits - who are going through their own fascist transformation - come tiptoeing in to watch from the sidelines. There's no mention of who owns Canadian social media. There's no mention of which accounts are spreading disinformation. They don't even link to the fucking joint-report that the article draws on.

We just get a casual "Yeah, Russia did it". Empty head. No thoughts. Canada is so fucked.
