Democracy is hard work and takes moment of courage to defend and maintain its institutions. Brazil has a lot to teach say the US about democracy which is not something I expected to say 2 decades ago.

That expression about the older we get the more conservative was explicitly for boomers who reaped immensely from runaway neoliberalism. Millennial and Gen Z have had nothing but worsening conditions. I expect that saying to age out. We are radicalizing. I followed the same path as you. A decades proud reformer. But neoliberalism cannot be reformed.
YSK that Reddit is meeting Banks and Insurance companies to discuss how to manipulate Canadian users
Good thing their IPO has led to such an enshitifying hunger that they are speed running the death of old reddit (forcing many of us to abandon ship even if we were not ready) and now they are quadrupling down. Fuck reddit. They did me a favour by over reaching. Ill never use their service again and will actively back button when I arrive by accident. (Like the link from the OP, shame!)
As a Canadian I cant help but interpret this as nothing against Canada, but insecurity about our increasingly belligerent neighbour.
I sort of hear you, but all other countries get around this because most new money has digital or computer vision trackers now. Making it in fact easy for vendors as their POS devices and software update for them.
Fascinating to me thats the perception in the first place. Here in Canada its at least acknowledged that driving is dangerous, but its seen as more convenient and a status symbol even though in many contexts its a lot less convenient.
True but since we are just speculating, its been predicted that geurillas will be shifting heavily to drone warfare. Started with Myanmar but it was only inevitable that Latin American militia would pick it up too.
