Partnered with an absurd ventriloquising of normal working-class people. "It is not I, the Mail Journo, who believes this terrible things. I am simply an oracle who channels the true unfiltered desires of Authentic British People, who are quite ghastly and probably live in Grimsby or somewhere"

Again, we should ask: why are so many columnists paid to pretend that they don’t understand things they understand perfectly well, in the most fearmongering and inflammatory manner possible? Because their bosses are either bleak cynics or foaming-at-the-mouth wingnut cranks themselves.

We’ve now reached the point where Rupert Lowe, an increasingly mainstream far-right politician, is openly referring to trans people as “filth” within his public policy proposals. I wonder what other politicians in the past have relied on widespread dehumanisation to attain their political ambitions.

Ask yourself the question ‘what function does it serve to debate whether someone is English?’ Nationality is a social convention. Nations don’t exist. People fabricated the identity relatively recently then enforced that social reality on us. The function is to exclude certain types of people.

Far right newspapers are trying to run a smear campaign against Misan Harriman. We can't let them. Add your name to the open letter, and stand against hate and division. goodlawproject.org/s/4ca10b

The Fred Rogers Production has started uploading every episode of Mister Rogers' Neighborhood for free. www.youtube.com/@misterroger...

Really wondering when the New York's state and city Human Rights Law is going to be enforced against these hospitals.

Note here: you cannot have any kind of good faith discussion with people who are paid to scare and mislead the public. They are not concerned about what is real or what is good and bad. They are in the business of malicious shit-stirring and nothing they say has any value at all.

If you're a white person and you think the Birtish state is waging war on white people, I have news for you. It isn't. It's waging war on working class people. It always has. But not just working class people, anyone who It considers a threat or a useful scapegoat.

Like a lot of it makes sense when you realise that they're not using "working class" to mean a relationship to socioeconomic power but to mean a big, strong, white guy who'll put all us mouthy bitches in our place.

dear reader read: anthropic is hemorrhaging money and life force faster than charlie kirk's neck did when it just did that.

The leopards have finished their starters and are eagerly awaiting medium rare face.

I gave a keynote this week here event.sdu.dk/cultures/con... with the theme: Cultures, Bodies and Technologies on "What is AI, and why is it harmful?" but I also pre-recorded a copy in case I was ill — enjoy (I guess 🥲)!

@lucympowell.bsky.social thinks if we replace the reactionary, bigoted, twat that is keir starmer with the reactionary, bigoted, twat that is andy burnham all will be well again in the world im convinced all labour has to offer is these men. that's it. they've purged anybody sensible from the party

The left would like rent to be affordable and trans people to be able to go to the toilet. The right is trying to start a race war.

It’s no coincidence that before they went full on terf, the British commentatariat were writing articles discrediting the concept of intersectionality coined by PROFESSOR Kimberlé Crenshaw who is far more of an authority than they as white columnists Racism and transphobia go hand in hand

The EHRC Guidance on single-sex spaces is unjust and unworkable. That's why UNISON are demanding MPs stand with trans and non-binary workers and oppose the guidance.

@bphillipsonmp.bsky.social is far too busy checking the genitals of everyone in the country to worry about this stuff.

NEWS: A @lawfaremedia.org report finds that *97* Jan. 6ers who received clemency for their role in the attack were arrested, charged, or convicted of subsequent crimes—a number much higher than previously reported. Incredible work by @katherinepomps.bsky.social www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Just a reminder that when huge swathes of media were pretending that all Gen Z boys/men were into far right politics it was presented as a phenomenon we were supposed to examine very earnestly to understand their concerns and challenges….

'immigration is lower under labour' our economy needs higher immigration. i reiterate my point about you being a political illiterate.

RENT IS DUE AT THE END OF TODAY I CANNOT GO PAST THE END OF TODAY OR MY KIDS AND I WILL BE EVICTED I HAVE $1470 LEFT!!!

This woman was invited onto morning TV, and repeatedly boosted by JK Rowling at the time when the vast majority of liberal journalists and commentators (including some here on Bsky today!) where describing JKR as a 'concerned feminist'. Just pointing it out, as I know we wouldn't want to forget

The same people who tell me I can’t ever be British because of my name are saying a guy named Nowak is British, but just for a few days while they hold riots

@jeremycorbyn.bsky.social The Trans Community will never forget your betrayal if you fail to sign. This goes for all MP's who fail to sign. We see you and we won't forget!

To say that NHS staff cannot wear Palestinian symbols or protest against genocide because it would upset Jewish patients again conflates British Jews with Israel and its oppression of Palestinians, and makes Jews less safe. It is the British state following its own agenda and using Jews as a shield.

It needs to be stated over and over - this isn't just a matter of errors: The point is that LLM AI is literally incapable of reviewing or validating research data. It absolutely cannot do that job, at all, ever. But it is very good at generating something that looks like a convincing review.

And they can't even pretend she kept it quiet until recently - she's been openly racist for well over a decade:

Just circling back to this odious individual who was at the racist riots yesterday. Someone who for years after she called for all trans men to be sterilised, as well as reams of other violent repulsive transphobia was praised and fawned over by JK Rowling, the NS and other 'centre left feminists'

As the World Cup approaches, people are using more and more football gifs. This is your reminder that Cristiano Ronaldo has been accused of at least five rapes and sexual assaults and admitted one of them in legal documents.

We might say: wasn’t it awesomely stupid to look at the right abandoning this fucked, broken, indefensible system and then decide - Hey, we should totally take over this fucked, indefensible system and become the avatars of its brokenness! And yes, yes it was very stupid indeed.

This is also why e.g. Labour and the Democratic Party have struggled. They thought the collapse of the Reasonable Right was a huge opportunity for them to occupy “the political centre”, then win forever. But the political centre is a blasted, radioactive crater now, and it’ll kill everyone in it.

I think we can be more blunt than this: right wing conservative politics always talked a good game about prudence and responsibility but it was always about money and power - getting it for the right people and keeping it, by whatever means were necessary.

With the caveat abt being cautious of abstracting from personal experience to generalisations bt I really believe the "good Tory" or "liberal Tory" or "Burkean Conservative" is, with some possible exceptions to the rule, largely an act & a self-serving myth of the ruling / political media class

Ken Jones, a retired San Francisco firefighter, has died from lung cancer after Blue Shield denied his treatment claims Any 2028 candidate who does not champion universal healthcare is a non-starter. I will not vote for someone who kills my neighbors for "shareholder value." You can go burn in hell

Another day in Britain, where if you suggest the cops shouldn't kick fuck out of women or minorities you're told you don't understand the nuances of policing and couldn't do the hard job they do, by someone calling for them to all be sacked for being racist against whites.

I'm not joking about this at all: if Nigel Farage, Tommy Robinson, Rupert Lowe etc. were on stage or TV doing all their Rivers of Blood stuff and Mr. Blobby came out and did blobby things at them their reactions would destroy their political careers.

for all of the political capture that has occurred due to the likes of @darrenpjones.bsky.social, streeting, @bphillipsonmp.bsky.social, and so on transphobia remains unpopular this is what happens when you join a cult. they isolate you away from your friends/family until all you have is the cult

As I said in, what, 2019: a certain kind of Sensible Moderate is going to get dragged away to a black van in the night by the Generalissimo’s thugs, screaming “you don’t understand officers, I’m not *that* type of progressive”.

Our political/media class had a whale of a time mobbing together with these horrible fash swine and these poisonous media outlets to hammer fuck out of The Left for white-people hating. I guess the joke is less funny when it’s *you* that’s being accused of ethnic treason against the fatherland.

Again, “Marxist Bolshevik intellectuals are conspiring with the lesser races to undermine the Reich and abuse Our White Women” has been the narrative *for fifteen years* on TV, radio and news stands. The difference now is it’s a) undisguised, and b) targeted at Sensible Moderates, not the pig people

first they came for the trannies. like they did this to us. they started with us. they created a false impression that was a serious 'debate' about trans inclusion and healthcare going on. they spread the lie that the country had been captured by 'gender ideology'. you mugs went along with it.

burnham won't run a 'cleverer operation'. it'll be the same 'operation' with a slightly different accent.

Burnham. Starmer. Makes zero difference to me. I'll never put an X next to a Labour candidate again.

A gay person attacking a transgender person is in desperate need of a history lesson.

It's fascinating (and infuriating) to live in an age where almost everyone I know is languishing in Dickensian poverty but social media is slap full of professional computer-touchers who've never known hunger insisting that the economy is fine because their metrics say rich people are rich.
