Behind the weasel words and prevaricating euphemisms, Britain's politics of immigration are rooted in an antipathy to the presence of negatively racialised people in this country *on any terms*. If we'd confronted that reality decades ago, and faced it down, we wouldn't be where we are now.

Not everyone is unhappy about the Government's descent into anti-refugee politics

Seen a few "lol remember when people thought Megyn Kelly was feminist" takes which are basically correct but I also think elide the fact that 10 years ago she *did* sound more feminist and has discarded that aesthetic bc there's no appetite for it on the US right anymore. Total manosphere victory

Jacob Elordi and Glen Powell need to take a holiday and give some other fella a chance to be in a movie

Listening to the fantastic Truly Tradly Deeply QAA Podcast series by @annieknk.bsky.social and Megan Kelly is a fantastic listen. 100% worth the $25 yearly subscribe fee... never mind that you get a bunch of other pods like @livagar.bsky.social's great Science in Transition. www.cursedmedia.net

Vibes shifted again. Woke is BACK

My most woke opinion is that some of the replies to this are straight up eugenics and a lot of the ones about religion if implemented would have extremely foreseeable racist outcomes

I'm starting to feel like some of the criticism towards the new (as yet unreleased!) Wuthering Heights film for not being a faithful enough adaptation might be being made by people who also haven't read the book

TRULY TRADLY DEEPLY is back on cursedmedia.net! In this episode we discuss fertility: giving God your womb, birthrates anxiety, childless cat ladies, and why everyone on the Girl Internet is telling you to get off the Pill all of a sudden:

It’s very enervating to watch intelligent and educated people play dumb about this amidst the ascendance of a far-right reactionary movement driven by antisocial Silicon Valley psychos and Miami crypto scammers who all treat women as status symbols on the same level as NFTs and Labubus.

Thanks Jeff, … really loved doing child sex crimes on you’re island - sent from my iPhone

So funny how pizzagate all hinged on the idea that elite paedophiles would never explicitly talk about their crimes via email and would probably develop some kind of elaborate code

Pepper sprayed a baby.

Cracking up that's such a mean thing to say about someone and they put it in an ad

What's fascinating here is that as she rhymes off the list of gender critical people at Newsnight pursuing an explicitly gender critical agenda, in the context of a discussion of ideological capture at the BBC, she doesn't recognise that she was part of the ideological capture of the BBC by GCs.

If at any point you are tempted to feel sorry for that miserable waste of skin please remind yourself that he has murdered a quarter of a million children and counting

Thanks to @annieknk.bsky.social's Truly Tradly Deeply podcast I now know the word "Heteropessimism" and have had occasion to use it in two separate, unrelated conversations over the last week.

This term is so social media-brained. Coined by people who can't imagine themselves without an audience, or that anyone could genuinely want to pass time in any other form than Stare at Phone

I am going to become the joker

It's him.. Mr Autumn Man

A really interesting listen.

The problem with Frankenstein adaptations is I really feel like I don't need a whole movie to understand that that scientist shouldn't have done That

here’s the letter one church sent to its congregation after this lady called them.“you’re bad christians because you correctly figured out that i was lying!” is not a coherent take.

Really into Annie's "Truly Tradly Deeply" miniseries here. It's great

Research opportunity! I’m studying how traditional media literacy instruction adapts to digital challenges like memes & algorithms. Seeking librarians & educators with media literacy experience for a short confidential interview. Interested? forms.gle/bZs7JfVxCfeN... #MediaLiteracy TC IRB 25-496

Perhaps an unsurprising finding but worth mentioning nonetheless: if you exclusively look up and watch tradwife content on TikTok, it will persistently keep serving you pro-anorexia content despite that not having once been something you searched for or even watched.

"That was the Eyebrow Equivalent with Perfidious Physiognomy"

I couldn't be a mainstream journalist these days. One day you're doing a completely normal interview with an actress and suddenly thousands of poorly socialised weirdos are getting the callipers out to say you're biologically pre-destined to be a HR officer

I just enjoyed this first episode, which offers a slightly different lens on, y’know, Everything Happening (and has a terrific show title to boot)

This podcast is absolutely worth the price. Every episode is a fascinating 2+ hour deep dive into antifeminist currents in modern society.

Recomendo demais o trabalho da Annie para quem quiser entender a extrema direita inglesa... que tem toda cara que será a bola da vez, agora que o ocaso de Bolsonaro chegou e o de Trump e Milei se avizinham.

This is an awesome miniseries.

the deaths Musk has caused have had no bearing on his personal standing. It is ghastly to contemplate that no one in the press interrupts his latest announcement about some new waifu robot to ask “what about the children you took food and medicine away from?”

I think the thing that most annoys me about Helen Andrews' Feminization thesis is that if it were true, the rational thing to do would be to bar women from all major institutions. Western civilisation is at stake!

twelve hungry men

This is a great series, well worth the price of admission.

The new episode of TRULY TRADLY DEEPLY is out now on CursedMedia.net! In this episode we dive into the tradosphere's advice on purity - tracing it from 90s purity culture to the new secular 'reactionary feminist' arguments. Also I go on an unscripted rant about 2001 romcom classic Kate and Leopold

"ideological entrepreneur" is a great phrase for trad influencers and i for one can't wait to aggressively overuse it to the point of rendering it meaninglessness

Chicago Auxiliary Bishop José María Garcia-Maldonado at ICE detention facility: “Being here is an act of holiness…soon we will seek access to the facility to bring the Eucharist to our brothers and sisters; if they say no again, we will keep praying.”

I would like historians to prove that it was the 17th century equivalent of that guy who blew himself up in a Cybertruck to do a Vibes Reset.

Something I'd like to know was if there was a chance in hell that the gunpowder plot was ever gonna work. Like from the bare outline I know of it it seems like a kind of hare-brained scheme but I will admit I'm not much of an expert on 17th century revolutions

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design. news.sky.com/story/the-x-...

lol

This has the potential to be the best series that has spun out of the QAA cinematic universe, and that is saying something as it is a very high bar to clear.

Utterly fascinating new series from Annie & Megan Kelly (not that one), worth the Cursed Media sub on its own. I do wonder what trad wives will do when their cute new babies are rebellious teens in years to come and peri meno is kicking their butt.

Centre-left British moderates on Bluesky: a heartening win for Mamdani, a man I admire and would definitely not campaign to have expelled from the Labour party if he lived here. Centre-left British moderates on X: New York has fallen to Islamists. You'd all better start reading about "Taqiyya"..

frank herbert what did you know

there's an official graph now
