“We're only making plans for Nigel, We only want what's best for him. We're only making plans for Nigel, Nigel just needs that helping hand..”

feels like even in the less overtly brutal parts of the west right now leadership is more intent than ever on demoralizing and restraining a population with fewer and fewer options for survival and the most they're willing to offer is punishing outgroups slightly more than everybody else

It is not a coincidence that most of the videos you see of ICE agents using excessive force seem to feature unarmed women half their size. 🙃

sometimes I think back on life just a couple decades ago even and it's just...it's wild what they've done to us. the cost of housing, groceries, healthcare...we lost. big time

You just don’t expect random philosophical questions at the supermarket.

Ahh, the joy of getting into the car to go and pick up some necessities from the other side of town and realising you left your lights on two days ago and your battery is now completely dead..

Genuinely though I think if you've spent too much time living under $17k/yr, you become semi-feral Like a stray cat you adopted a bit too late, who sometimes gets a look in their eye that makes you go "Ohh you think I'm food" But now you're working in an office so its ~A Bit of an Issue~

Did we rapture yet?

The truth: we need migration. The problem: too many politicians are terrified to say it. Why? They're led by a) toxicity of the charlatans & b) wealthy media organisations who demand these useful distractions rather than us talking about inequality. Reject it. Draw the line.

In Swedish, a word for what you eat to bridge the gap between meals (or while waiting for the main course to cook) is stödmacka. It means "support sandwich." A similar word in Norwegian is ventepølse, or "waiting sausage."

The net effect of Elon buying Twitter and rebuilding the algorithm to constantly spoonfeed people right wing propaganda has been less convincing average people of right wing propaganda and more convincing the entire anglosphere elite class that the average person believes right wing propaganda

Very odd watching BBC News talking about the Lib Dem conference and mentioning how the party has struggled to break through in the media like it's nothing to do with them.

...god says trans rights?

look man, if god didn't want us to protect the dolls, they wouldn't have put a big trans flag in the sky, IDK what y'all want from me

Hulu and Disney plus are now offering 70% off subscriptions, and in response I am offering Hulu and Disney plus 70% off deez nuts.

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

Tell us again how we have to vote Labour or we’ll get Reform?

'Heartbreaking' like it's some kind of unavoidable tragedy. It's wilful, human made carnage. Shark nets, like so much we do, should not be a thing.

52 years old today, and dear god did I wake up feeling every second of it this morning.

The imagery of this is so poignantly awful. Wes Streeting is still a monster, he's not even doing a good job of pretending to care to try and scrounge votes.

centrists: a third party can’t win under fptp so you have to vote labour. centrists: if you don’t vote labour then reform, a third party, might win.

you will never be amenable enough to the demands of a fascist tantrum to make it stop without selling your soul and becoming a fascist yourself. there is no amount of compliance that is acceptable short of absolute indoctrination. the more you bend, the more they push you down. stop helping them!

you desperately need to recognize right now that fascists are flipping out because their boyking is worm food and a huge amount of people either are glad for that or straight up don’t care. it shows, to them, who is not under their control.

that’s why we’re seeing widespread harassment campaigns to get people fired. not because people “celebrated violence” but because they were not sufficiently compliant in following the messaging established by fascists.

At the risk of piling on—holy shit. listen to people who have experience organizing stuff and know the first thing about conspiracy law. You’ll notice that they are not pleased with this take.

idk i guess if so many pundits think they and charlie kirk were doing the same job, we should believe them

As COVID-19 cases continue to increase, it's important to know accurate information about COVID-19 in order to protect yourself and others! Get the facts about common myths, and take steps to protect yourself and others.

A whole lot of people are coming for @angryblacklady.bsky.social today for saying "do not put your name on a list of people attending a protest, what the fuck" with responses like "you're just discouraging people!" and "but they already know who you are!" and "DON'T LET THE TERRORISTS WIN" etc

The Department of Justice has removed a study showing that white supremacist and far-right violence “continues to outpace all other types of terrorism and domestic violent extremism” in the United States. 🔗 www.404media.co/doj-deletes-...

Now that it’s the time of year when the obscurely-funded right wing Restore Trust, a private company, try once again to take over the National Trust, my annual reminder of what they want to do with our history & heritage. blogs.sussex.ac.uk/snapshotsofe...

You know what, yeah, people have concerns. They're concerned about paying bills, renting or buying a house, buying food, getting an NHS appointment etc. None of that's down to migrants. If you attend a rally organised by Tommy Robinson, don't play the "legitimate concerns" card. You're a racist. 1/

2x as many people came out to celebrate LBGTQ in London as went to Tommy Robinson's Far Right riot, and they didn't pay people to come. We can easily beat them.

We could be 5 to 10 years from toothpaste that can regrow tooth enamel. The scales are beginning to tip in favor of Mars once sustaining life. We’ll potentially know for sure by 2040. The blue macaw is up to 160 individuals from an all-time low of 7, and confirmed to be breeding in the wild.

"To a supremacist society, most of us are acceptable losses. Charlie Kirk is not. To a supremacist society, guns are allowed to kill most of us, and the pundits can debate later how sad our deaths were. But guns were not supposed to kill Charlie Kirk." www.the-reframe.com/acceptable-l...

And the Labour government - *Kinnock voice* the LABOUR government - thinks that's all just a wonderful display of free speech, while they also go about arresting pensioners for wearing Palestine Action t-shirts. Because the parasite-king Morgan McSweeney decided he wants racist votes.

Loath though he is to alienate floating racists, perhaps Starmer could rouse himself to condemn a violent fascist rally teeming with people who want him overthrown and/or killed

The United States of America in 2025 is like if Nazi Germany kept slipping on banana peels, gaining more and more brain damage with each slip

I’m no social media platform expert but I’m pretty sure “we’re kicking out anyone who objects to this place becoming another Nazi bar and you don’t like it, the door is that way” is the best policy, Jay 😡

The story of conservatism for the past 70 years or so is conservative establishment figures thinking they could temper the extremists in their movement by adopt some of their rhetoric and policies. But instead of that, they just wind up giving the radicals the car keys.

These people could start by reading how gamer gate was a precursor to Maga.

That's the problem with transgender assassins you see. Perfect at 200 yard military-style hits. Brilliant at slipping away invisibly. But they insist on leaving their inscribed ammo all over the place. Bloody amateurs!

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.
