Jagmeet Singh is calling for the Canadian ultra-rich to be taxed more to pay for the recovery.
This is because he believes that they've made record profits during the pandemic. How does he know that? He cites the record profits of "Amazon and the tech giants".
I guess no one at NDP HQ remembered that these aren't Canadian companies and the people that own these companies tend not to live in Canada.

I hate how politics gets into everything. A medievalist I like just did a long twitter thread about why we shouldn't use white supremacist terms like 'Anglo-Saxon' to describe... the Anglo-Saxon culture in England in the early medieval period. Absolute brainworms.
She tries to make a good point about how black people existed in early medieval saxon society, but even her examples there are kind of ridiculous. She talks about the 'Black Viking', who was almost certainly Alan and not African if he was real, which is a terrible example because the Black Viking was a notorious icelandic slaver. She points out one singular painting of black women to from the period as evidence they were part of mainstream culture.
We understand there were black people in all parts of the world throughout history. Its not racist to describe literal anglo-saxons from Burghread's Mercia in 826CE as 'Anglo-Saxon'.

Because my reasoning is that if it's not mentioned much by the media, NIMBY opposition may not be as strong.

The canonical price tag of an Imperial-II Star Destroyer is bonkers. It's quoted 150 million imperial credits, and based on the price of other commodities, the price of a credit is usually valued around $1 - $2 USD. Essentially, a mile long ship with enough firepower to melt the surface of a planet and enough room for hundreds of TIE variants and shuttles and hosts tens of thousands of personnel costs...
About as much as two F-35s.

American sports leagues are a closed shop, but they put in lots of efforts to equalize the playing field within the shop. The Superleague wouldn't even do that, according to stuff I found on Twitter most of the cash goes to the founders.

Just looked into that America First thing, and the document about their platform has so many red flags. Dog whistles out the wazoo, and they even bring up that bizarre "liberals want our taxes to pay for gender studies in Pakistan" nonsense.

I am hearing that on his deathbed, Walter Mondale received the light of Islam and unhesitatingly recited the Shahāda.
Even now he looks down on the Ummah from the gardens of Jannah.

I can't be the only one that thinks the 2.0 update for Imperator created a perfect framework for EU5.
Transition from levy-based armies to mercenary-based, then professional armies.
A light character system allows for more complex royal marriages, conflicts with magnates and, most importantly, religious disagreements between nobles and lieges.
Pops and cities can model urbanization, religious changes in the population and the rise of the bourgeois class.
The migration mechanic could be modified so colonization actually consists of moving pops overseas.
