Want to see how far right the Republican Party has gone? Watch George H. W. Bush and Ronald Reagan answer a question about illegal immigration during a 1980 debate. They wouldn’t even be allowed in today’s Republican Party.

As I said before, THE question of the 21st century is who owns the computers and in whose interest.

Sanders praises Trump's approach to tackling immigration & Mélenchon says foreigners "steal bread from the mouths of the French." While we need a sensible immigration policy this sort of language is harmful and only legitimises reactionaries. @anticapitalistmusings.com

Labour has made Scottish independence, Welsh independence and Irish unification more likely than any other UK government. English centrists live in a bubble.

And when you say it's rigged Trump will say you should always respect the election result and that type of language is unpatriotic. In true 1984 fashion, Trump never said anything in 2020. It's fake news. He left the white house and respected the result.

This is 100% correct. Including as to the chaos the Gender Critical Ideological Movement so beloved of Labour has now descended into as their facade of respectability crumbles like the Berlin Wall. www.liberalcurrents.com/nobody-knows...

The single biggest factor in @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ascent is the factor that’s the least discussed & yet the most replicable throughout the country: Public financing of campaigns. Pass this on and get the book where it comes from 👇 LeverNews.com/book www.levernews.com/how-zohran-m...

The Empire is dead, and soon the union will be too.

Transgender youth need to know that we trust them, that we respect them, that we have their backs, and that we will fight for their rights, even when those who are the biggest threats to those rights are members of their own families and communities. www.currentaffairs.org/news/dont-ju...

On emotions, even being rational is an emotional state of mind. Nothing is thought about without emotions. Oliver is completely correct. Symbols matters, myths matter and emotions matter.

@georgemonbiot.bsky.social absolutely spot on.

The point of techno-authoritarianism is not just to destroy democracy under capitalism, but to make any democratic alternatives to capitalism impossible too. Who owns the computers and in who's interests is THE question of the 21st century. @anticapitalistmusings.com @neilmackay.bsky.social

Prominent white Evangelical tied to Trump faces child abuse charges... This seems to happen on average twice a day. Does anyone see a pattern yet?

Good luck fighting Islamophobia when the right goes after Islam and you're the mock religion guy.

Come to the UK sometime and try to talk honestly about Churchill's record.

Holy God, if the American people don’t drag that overfed educationally subnormal dictator out of office by the scruff of his neck for this physical assault on their democracy, then it’s all over for them. This is the stuff revolutions are made of. Rise up or bow down, Americans. The choice is yours.

I've posted two more points on the first ammendment communists. @anticapitalistmusings.com

Drawing on my point below. I believe that most "communists" online are cosplay commies. They want an identity to express their anger at the system and play a character. They don't have the mental strength to live the life of a revolutionary where they will be spied on, exiled, arrested, tortured.

They’re often maligned as “flying rats,” but pigeons have many wonderful qualities, and they deserve respect. www.currentaffairs.org/news/in-defe...

The old 1990s lotto advert with the finger in the sky pointing at someone and saying "it could be you!" is back. We are stuck in an age of reboots and nostalgia because we have no vision for the future beyond death and destruction.

Just wait until Trump dies, they make an AI of him and it runs the GOP

The monarchy is an undemocratic, antiquated relic that serves no useful purpose in the 21st century. An unaccountable billionaire family bankrolled by the public purse. To become a fairer country it’s time to finally abolish the monarchy.
