Horrific story, couldn't finish reading it. He should be in jail if this is true.

@sashafrerejones: 'bluesky rly is the no kings app 100% lib 0% palestine self-kettled tut-tutting from the parlor.' Discuss.

I just want to say I distrusted and disliked Jacobin before it was fashionable.

Anthony Albanese is at fault here in not denouncing Israel's genocide he has ushered in a powerful Zionist Lobby that is eroding what little genuine democracy we had. Sanction, evict, Divest from Israel, the genocidal illegal occupation in Palestine.

It's not identity politics when it's white, male and, erm, 'strong-jawed'.

Farage just said “I didn’t wear a mask last time and I won’t wear them this time. This is nonsense.” Here he is, not only wearing a mask, but also getting vaccinated…

Our governments should be speaking up against this and failing reason, should be threatening counter-measures. But no dice, of course, just rolling over.

Another bought media organ, totally degraded. Massive boycotts are needed but i suppose that's pie in the sky

Good morning!

I like the intimacy of my Bluesky following. I feel I can share my innermost secrets here in a way I can't elsewhere. Watch this space.

Pretty sure this is the only paper reporting on this

Nauseating like everything else this state does now on a daily basis

This post by the world’s richest and most divorced man on the site he bought to promote his far right extremism is ripped straight from the Klan messaging of the 1870s or the 1915 film Birth of a Nation that inspired the Klan’s rebirth as a PR stunt/Ponzi scheme/terrorist organization in the 1920s.

Do we think Richard Madeley is paid what he was in 2008?

US based friends have a chance to stop this--this proposal is out for public consultation, whatever that means. This is unhinged but not out of line with everything else that is unhinged.

As so many academics maintain silence and, worse, collaborate, this brave refusal of a prestigous prize from Prof Liron Mor inspires. Bravo, Prof. Mor, you are a true comrade. utotherescue.blogspot.com/2025/11/mla-...

The legal, media, and academic institutions capitulating to an authoritarian ordering payments for favorable treatment are damning themselves to irrelevance. They are destroying their institutions. They will be — and should be — shunned for failing in their most basic purposes for existing.

This week I've been endorsed by Melanie 'Exterminate all of the Brutes' Phillips: "How many young people have had their minds poisoned by this professor's nasty, hateful, "post-colonialist" rage?" Answers on a postcard.

'Gender non-conforming cis women are forced to change their appearance to avoid harassment. To my mind, these effects on cis women undermine For Women Scotland's claim to be campaigning to protect women'' || @rebeccadonkennedy.bsky.social, Chief Executive Officer of @lgbtiscotland.bsky.social 👇

Proud to say large number of my colleagues have called upon Cambridge to not obtain further injunctions aimed at curtailing protest on University premises or enforce current one; & to engage with conscientious students. If you're on Regent House roll, please vote YES to Grace!

Charles Mills' The Racial Contract is such a brilliant book. Reading it for the third time, and I'm discovering new things. It's not an easy read at all but so rewarding when you mine each gleaming insight anew.

😅

Not long ago, when I raised a concern about a former college Fellow who is a regular visitor and a known sexual harasser, about whom others had also raised concerns, I was met with startling dismissiveness--until someone told the official concerned to respond properly and say the right things.

Help us send 2,000 books to readers who are incarcerated this winter through our Books Not Bars program

Today in Tech Lords control everything you are allowed to see and know

Wild wild universe of topsy turvy morals

The party that promised "free speech on campus" has made sure there can be no free speech on campuses.

Just what is this regime--and its cheerleaders in Britain--so afraid of?

"We are Black people living in a time when the consciousness of our intended slaughter is all around us. People of Color are increasingly expendable, our government's policy both here and abroad.' (1/2)

This itself, however, is a feature of contemporary white supremacy, including and especially its liberal wing: humming and hawing, both-sidesing, 'debating', 'pondering', 'complexity' trolling, 'nuance' mongering.

Complete disgrace. They think that by pandering to these people, they can avoid being targeted. And that's the charitable explanation.

A rogues gallery of the bastards who run our world with no principles or good intentions

Academia is very very broken. Not least because of the high degrees of complicity with everything from sexual harassment to genocide.

Word

Is that because you ARE a sex offender? 🤔

This is some horrifying predatory shit.

I am telling you once more that there is something particularly sick about people who benefited from the courageous activism of previous generations of Blacks & Asians in Britain spitting on that legacy. Home Office can cancel me any number of times, I'll keep repeating

It's also about serving the master so you can get your little share of white supremacist pie

Precisely. Though those fangs have always been hidden behind the teddy bear facade.

Report: occupiers poison water supply Comments: okay but it's not like it was 'genocidal' poison

It is troubling to me that some community representatives demand 'progressive' and 'inclusive' values towards themselves & their communities in the name of anti-racism but feel free to withhold those values in their own practice by hiding behind 'social conservatism'. Not on.

Preach

Thereby once again imposing narrow conceptions of sex that are not those espoused by many communities across the world.
