oh my days the world ain’t so bad

Randall Lane (Forbes), believes that we need billionaires to generate welfare. And then argues that we can use the fact that they care about their ego to induce them to give away more money. That first claim is simply wrong. And I have a better solution: tax the billionaires out of existence.

The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X. I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!). So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.

This is mental

re: Kai In the league, that was the second first-half open-play goal by an Arsenal striker all season. The other was Merino vs Brentford. If you're ruing near-misses for his second/third against City, so am I. If you're really blaming him: what. Should start every game at #9 from here on.

Always the bridesmaid

max please. Nelli left, ebs middle, captain off.

FUCK OFF thanks

According to Sky Commentary Team as usual... everything Man City do is great anything good arsenal do is ok, a bit lucky mistakes by city are great ideas mistakes by arsenal are evidence they are fouls against arsenal are not fouls fouls against city should be yellows same as it ever was.

I have a new public-facing article out today at @iai.tv on the “strike back” emotion—why we blame, punish, and resist letting go of the notion of just deserts | iai.tv/articles/mor...

A rare quadruple-tap which killed four medics and wounded six more. In total over 90 healthcare workers have been assassinated by Israel since the beginning of the intensified strikes on Lebanon by Israel.

Thread: 1/4 The usual siren voices are giving us Maginot Line thinking for a blitzkrieg world Hybrid warfare - the kind we actually face - works by exploiting inequality, division and social breakdown. Disinformation finds purchase in communities that feel abandoned.

If you return unwanted Reform local election leaflets to their party headquarters using their free post address, then it will cost the party £2.50 per envelope. Please don’t share this information; it could cost Nigel Farage a fortune.

This Reform leaflet from three Gateshead candidates looks like a timelapse of the same person

King of the pocket has left the building ☹️

5%? The thing I don’t get about current wealth tax movement is this… billionaires are going to resist ANY version of it tooth and nail, their press will go into hyper drive to whip up every scare mongering, meritocracy framing bullshit. So why not just go full blooded and fix inequality. 75%

Nice Pope you got there. Be a shame if something happened to it. 😏

Nick Candy, the treasurer of Reform UK, has sold his Chelsea family home for £270m in London’s most expensive house sale. Just a bunch of ordinary blokes!

Waiting for when majority of Americans realise Trump has just as little concern for them as he does for Iranian citizens save for their role in keeping him in power

This is a metaphor. But for what?

Seeing as John Terry has outed himself as a supporter of Reform Britain’s right-wing rhetoric, here’s a reminder of the truly hilarious and shameless attempts at positive PR when he was accused of racially abusing QPR defender Anton Ferdinand in 2011

This comp means a lot to me. The ‘88 Littlewoods cup final at Wembley was the first match I ever went to. I begged my dad, who has zero interest in football, to take me. The scale of it all, the twin towers stadium, the roar… it blew my head off. Then broke my heart. Lost 3-2. Not again today pls.

i expected better from a FIFA Peace Prize winner

Michelle De Swarte incoming… absolutely thrilled about this

No notes. None.

I know I've said this a trillion times but I have to say it periodically to keep from going insane: The right ran a huge, well-funded, & ultimately successful campaign to completely take over political media & the infosphere more generally. This is by far the most important political development...
