I used to share a lot of news on X.com. I did not find the same accessibility on Nostr. So I renewed my subscription to X.com.
“Christopher Rufo, one of the conservative intellectuals shaping the ideological foundation of Trumpism, made a revealing statement in a recent New York Times podcast. When asked by the journalist why he advocates dismantling the Department of Education rather than simply eliminating its most controversial programs while keeping those that are popular and widely considered useful, Rufo responds that if part of the staff remains, they will simply wait out the next election cycle: ‘We have a system that is accountable to no one. And when the culture and bureaucracy of that system are captured, you get the status quo of the first Trump administration, with a radically leftist Department of Education that only funds radically leftist causes.’ The solution, then, is to tear everything down in order to permanently change both the culture and the institution itself.” (Le Monde, https://www.lemonde.fr/en/opinion/article/2025/03/19/trump-has-already-surpassed-his-hungarian-and-polish-models_6739313_23.html)
Gabriel Nadeau-Dubois will step down as spokesperson for Québec solidaire. GND will remain a member of the National Assembly, but will not seek reelection in the next election.

"(...) In 2012, the role of GND as spokesperson during the student strike made the young union activist a media figure in the movement. Along with Jeanne Reynolds, he was co-spokesperson for the Coalition large de l'ASSÉ (CLASSE), a temporary coalition of 67 associations representing 100,000 students, demanding free education.
The strike, which lasted from February to September 2012, reached a peak in March, when nearly 300,000 students across the province were on strike.
(...) In March 2017, Nadeau-Dubois announced that he was joining Québec solidaire. A few weeks later, on May 21, he became the party's male co-spokesperson, alongside Manon Massé. He was then elected as the MNA for the riding of Gouin, in central Montreal, in the May 29 by-election. He was re-elected in the following elections with nearly 60% of the vote.
(...) [In April 2024] the parliamentary leader receives the support of his colleagues and simultaneously announces his desire for the party to make a "pragmatic" shift so that Québec solidaire is able to win elections and form a government."

"This comes after the Trump administration and Israel pressured Hamas to agree to a new ceasefire deal after signing the original agreement in January 2025. Hamas repeatedly emphasized the importance of sticking to the original deal already agreed upon."

I joined Nostr to get away from technofascist platforms like Facebook and X.com. For me, Nostr is fundamentally about resisting censorship.

"He wanted to eject Canada out of an intelligence-sharing group known as the Five Eyes that also includes Britain, Australia and New Zealand.
He wanted to tear up the Great Lakes agreements and conventions between the two nations that lay out how they share and manage Lakes Superior, Huron, Erie and Ontario.
And he is also reviewing military cooperation between the two countries, particularly the North American Aerospace Defense Command." [2025.03.07)
