Means testing is just the destruction of accomodation and benefits by slower means you fuck ignorant liberal septic tanks.

Fascinate a woman with a gunpla kit.

need less politicans who are PPE grads (Philosophy, Politics, and Economics) and more politicans who are PPE fans (Piss and Power Electronics)

“Why should trans people build their lives in a country which continues to demonstrate its hostility? Unless the government takes urgent action, the threat won’t just be to trans people’s human rights, but also to our economy as we make life harder for business, and drive talent away.”

It’s funny how all these dipshit make thousands from their substacks when they don’t understand basic political theory

Exxon says it can't reveal how much pollution it makes because doing so would force it to “serve as a mouthpiece for ideas with which it disagrees.” Which is just the "homework is against my religion" excuse, if the student saying it killed 8 million people a year.

Question - if wealth taxes don’t work and raise only paltry amounts, how come whenever we start seriously discussing them rich people start pouring resources into trying to start race and class wars as a distraction?

Late to this, I hate Boo's implementation in BG3. ''go for the eyes boo'' can equally be read as Minsc throwing boo or Minsc self talk/ battle advice. Consider in BG 1/2 Boo literally can't be removed from their inventory quickslot, and how Boo's hidden from Irenicus. I think the latter.

So let me get this today’s drama right: * Jay followed noted transphobe Jonathan Chait * Blacksky user Link pointed that out that’s fucked up after the past week * Link was banned on Blueskys appview presumably by Jay * But Link is also hidden from Blacksky b/c it still uses said appview

'The purpose of a system is what it does'.

Keep pressuring Microsoft to end all complicity! As a consumer, boycott Microsoft products whenever possible and join the Xbox boycott.

Ok. They’ve pissed me off. I’m back to tell you 3 things about ID cards: 1. Migrants ALREADY HAVE biometric ID cards & govts have been trying to digitise them for years w repeated fuckups & failures causing complete chaos - they don’t work, you do not want that system for you.

I really wish this happened earlier for Palestine, but at the same time, lol and also lmao

You will never get me to care about a nazi dying. Well beyond caring in the sense that I'm glad the scum is dead.

I rest my case.

Do not put your name on a website to register for a rally in this political climate. What the fuck's wrong with y'all. Are there any people of color that work at this org who might knock some sense into your peach colored heads.

This is class solidarity. In case you’re at all confused.

they didn't do this when democratic lawmakers were targeted by a gunman. the mainstream media barely peeped when a Kyle Rittenhouse fan did a mass shooting at a Portland protest. Democrats and the mainstream media are just terrified of conservatives to the point where no one else's lives matter

"But Gandhi! But MLK jr.! But the ANC! But the velvet revolution-" These people & movements were not monolithic & they did not exist in a vacuum. Successful nonviolence almost always relies on MANY violent movements & actions, of the threat of them, happening concurrently.

A pinch of salt a punch of msg.

This is why the government cracks down on nonviolent protest that is actually effective. Marching and chanting are a good show of solidarity. However, targeting the facilities of weapons manufacturers and organised boycotts actually make the greater difference. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

My last hope for Your Party goes up in smoke as Zarah Sultana ‘welcomes’ Mark Serwotka. His wife founded a Woman’s Place UK, a TERF group constantly trying to rollback trans people’s freedoms and he even wrote this lovely piece calling for ‘respectful discussion’ about our rights: archive.ph/iPb0L

I think it's simpler than this. This isn't a tactical miscalculation. Labour is giving us the policies it - to the extent it believes in anything - believes in.

David Pakman going from GamerGate “it’s about ethics in games journalism” moron to accepting dark money to spew DNC-approved talking points in his “journalism” is SO FUCKING FUNNY www.wired.com/story/dark-m...

Oh look, exactly what trans people said would happen is happening to the jeremy corbyn party. Fuck that party and fuck every coward who shouted at trans people that we should wait and see how things turned out.

I honestly do not know how to get people to perceive connotation if their reading comprehension wilfully stops at decontextualized denotation.

The "Are we the baddies?" sketch takes on a different flavour when you consider that Robert Webb actually is a fascist and David Mitchell actually is a coward

This official is either so staggeringly fuck ignorant he believes this, is so spineless and pathetic he'll chat shit on TV under orders even knowing how bad it makes him look, or has such a low opinion of the public he thinks they'll buy this. Well that or all 3.

so the only legislative victories of labour, the uk's "centre-left" party are thus far 1. legal to kill grandma 2. all trans people banned 3. like 65% of all adults are now technically terrorists 4. do you have a loicense to read wikipedia

Traditional publishing, fucking trad pub, I am going to pelt you with copies of boyne books, (because use as makeshift missiles is all his trash is good for) till you realise literary fiction is a marketing genre and it is no indication of quality.

I live in a fucking clown ass country.

💼 “Things could be worse for trans rights in the UK, here are some examples how…” 💃 “ok but Labour _are_ already doing some of those” 💼 “Look I’m not defending Labour” …i’m so fucking tired istg

Quick little fact check here: Israel has armed the Burmese military for decades, including during the Rohingya Genocide. Protesting Israel’s genocidal regime directly and materially benefits the people of Myanmar.

Samus Happy 39th Metroid Anniversary!

"Jeremy Corbyn has said good stuff in the past but you can't expect him to speak up on trans rights now, it's very divisive." Ah, yes, Corbyn is famously against being divisive. That's why he's gone for the easy, uncontroversial positions on Palestine and nationalisation first.

Not to get all anarchist about things but the way people behave makes a lot more sense when you stop assuming they are motivated primarily by logic or reason and start assuming they are motivated by their position in the hierarchies they inhabit* *this is not a positive thing

There's not exactly a drought! All this handwringing is because there's a lack of interest, not a lack of content. The question really is "How do we make men feel like they can preserve their historical position over women-as-a-class without going full right wing?" and that's a losing premise.

I follow quite a few left wing British political people on YouTube and it's so frustrating how most of them will list off all the things wrong with Labour and won't even mention LGBT rights. Like come on it's one of the major issues of our time, at least mention it in passing

If you google "how to plant carrots" you're three clicks away from the Turner Diaries, this isn't due to a lack of leftist gardeners.

I spent enough years following and documenting what lonely men say to each other. They have no interest in fixing their situation, they only want to bitch and keep each other lonely. The moment any of them "ascend" the others try to drag them back in.

Women’s status is very rapidly eroding—in their civil rights protections, healthcare, access to the public sphere, and the cultural support for their independence and dignity. But there is no feminism: our public gender discourse is divided between transphobia and handwringing about man’s feelings.

porn brain and degenerate are straight up fascist dog whistles, why the fuck are people using it uncritically? jesus christ

you’re not an ally if you’re in the labour party. thas so weird to think you are.

Do you notice how - again and again, in story after story - the common factor is “obviously horrible but wealthy and important people, angrily demanding total freedom to behave as horrendously as they want, and the media/political system opening wide to give them everything that they demand”?

oh my fucking god
