‘The most moral army in the world’ Israeli troops kill two Palestinians after they appear to surrender www.bbc.com/news/article...

The ruling class We’re gonna monetise all the seasonal festivals so the dweebs can buy loads of shit they don’t need and give their hard earned wages back to the ruling class 90% of the western world WhERe do I SIgN Up

The 50 wealthiest families own more wealth than the bottom 50% of the population. How can this Labour Government say this is a "cost of living" budget and refuse to tax the rich? They care about protecting power and wealth. And cost of living is a buzz phrase for them. Dire.

Now, remind me again that non-Americans should mind their own business.

Humans, the self proclaimed ‘most intelligent’ species on Earth are embarking on an energy intensive AI revolution. Because clearly, our other ‘greatest moment’ - the Industrial Revolution - isn’t killing the planet fast enough. Humanity and its leaders, failing hard for a millennia

The Somalians that are bang into Scottish Independence are a bit quieter today…. How X's new location feature exposed big US politics accounts www.bbc.com/news/article...

This is one of the big accounts boosting Tommy Robinson, Farage and Reform and ‘English Patriots’. It’s Russian.

No signs of compromise in Moscow. Today one Russian newspaper states: “Putin is ready for talks on Ukraine on Russia’s terms.” Another paper points out: “After the Alaska summit, from our side there were no good will gestures. Just an intensification of attacks.” #ReadingRussia

Did anyone stop to ask the population of Earth if we want AI shoved down our f******* throats?

Today one Russian paper is crowing over reports of a US-Russia peace plan: “Nothing about Ukraine without Ukraine? That’s all in the past.” But the state of Russia’s economy is nothing to crow about: “Recession is almost inevitable.” Plus, one editorial, with two messages..? #ReadingRusia

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

One Russian paper today reports that “Half of all clothes and shoe shops in Russia have shut down….[due to] drop in incomes & slowing economic growth.” Another wonders whether Russia is suffering from “economic stagnation or technical recession.” #ReadingRussia

McDonald’s prices are so high that low-income visits dropped double digits. Delta’s cheap seats are down 5% but luxury seats are up. Budget hotels are losing revenue while high-end hotels climb. And the corporate response? Serve the rich and screw everyone else. #LetThemEatCake

Interesting editorial in one of today’s Russian papers. It states that in a political system like Russia's “politicians who find themselves in power get used to having more and more powers [and] have no external incentive to change.” #ReadingRussia

Increase in productivity since 1979: 87% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 32% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.

From today’s Russian papers: “Nearly 7,000 transport companies in Russia on the verge of bankruptcy”, “A record one in four companies have overdue loans”, “decline in civilian sectors of industry.” #ReadingRussia

If only our society took major crimes by rich people as seriously as minor crimes by poor people. Ideally more seriously. But as seriously would be a big improvement.

Lib Dem Leader @eddavey.libdems.org.uk: "A great British institution is under attack from a foreign government. President Trump is trying to destroy our BBC... Trump has undermined press freedom in America. Now he's trying to do the same here, disgracefully egged on by the leader of Reform."

In today’s Russian papers: ▪️ Russia’s budget deficit gets bigger ▪️ plans for a new “tax on gadgets” ▪️ a “cooling off period” for SIM cards ▪️t he dangers of rehabilitating Joseph Stalin #ReadingRussia

Whole fucking thing makes me sick to my stomach. An abject fucking liar, a man who lies as easily as he fucking breathes, threatening an organisation which strives for truthfulness. And plastic patriots like the Mail and Farage urging him on. Jackels.

Today one Russian paper suggests the US midterms “could undermine Donald Trump’s power & hurt Russia.” Other papers focus on Russia’s economic problems: “Zero growth in the 4th quarter…a gradual increase in crisis phenomena in manufacturing.” #ReadingRussia

‘Ceasefire’ www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

NEWS: The UK is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal, sources familiar with the matter told CNN. edition.cnn.com/2025/11/11/p...

Since 1968, CEO pay has exploded while worker pay has remained stagnant. If worker pay grew at the same pace as CEO pay, today’s typical worker would make $431.80 per HOUR. Instead, today’s typical worker makes $36.49 per hour — while CEOs make 280 times that on average. The system is rigged.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

In today’s Russian papers: “Budget revenues still falling, trade with China declining" & ”petrol supply problems in the regions.” Plus an interesting editorial: “In a situation where almost everything is prohibited, a little something at least should be permitted” #ReadingRussia

Morales: I don’t care if you’re the most individualistic person on the planet—because you “lift yourself up by your bootstraps” and think government should stay out of your business and “don’t tread on me.” Climate change is already treading on you, and you should care about this issue.

I love when rich assholes threaten to leave New York City or California or wherever like they haven’t figured out yet how much ordinary people hate them and how it’s actually hurting their cause

Today one Russian paper warns that “one Poseidon drone would be enough to send that cocky little island [Britain] to the bottom of the sea.” Other papers: “[China’s] imports of Russian oil down 21%”, plus “increased risk of bankruptcy” for Russian companies. #ReadingRussia

Please vote to stop Mamdani because if rich people get 80% of wealth instead of 90% society will collapse

As more revelations about Andrew come out the royal propaganda machine kicks into gear. As always it is blindly lapped up by the BBC Atop Sugarloaf mountain, kicking balls in the Maracana, meeting Cafu….. Read the room you clowns

The fact a *single* Amazon full-time employee requires SNAP benefits should be a crime. The fact Amazon is the largest employer of SNAP recipients is a disgrace. Jeff Bezos shouldnt be that rich; he should be in jail.

Walmart, McDonalds and Amazon are the largest employers of people who require SNAP assistance. The CEOs earned between 18-40 million last year, 1000x their median employee income. They took billions in profits, while their workers relied on SNAP to survive. Wanna fix fraud and abuse? Fix that.

Some Russian papers showcase the country’s new nuclear-powered cruise missile and underwater drone. Another paper: “Citizens have begun to actively economise on food.” #ReadingRussia

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

It's pretty cool that the US economy is propped up entirely by continuing work on software thats only real functional uses are eroding consensus reality, spreading often politically motivated misinformation, and for various scams like impersonating your grandma and saying she's been kidnapped

Yeah, not being called ‘prince’ and having to live in a slightly smaller mansion, what trauma Another case of one form of justice for the rich and famous and another for everyone else. If it was you or me accused of the filth this twat is we’d be inside and they’d throw away the key Lock him up

In today’s Russian papers: nuclear-powered cruise missiles, poisonous snakes and economic pressures: “Russian industry is balancing on the verge of an all-industry collapse.” #ReadingRussia

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Today's Russian newspapers react to Donald Trump sanctioning Russia’s two largest oil companies: ▪️“3/4 of Russia’s oil exports are now sanctioned.” ▪️“a political signal…a negative indicator” ▪️“Trump can backpedal any time. He’s that kind of person.” #ReadingRussia

From today’s Russian papers: “There isn’t a single reason Moscow should agree to a ceasefire [in Ukraine].” Same paper accuses Trump of “intellectual laziness.” Another: “Everything we’ve seen suggests [Trump] is not ready to take tough measures against Russia.” #ReadingRussia
