Alright FT game recognizes game.

There we go. That there’s a headline.

The last time McSweeney convinced Starmer to make a speech with emotion it resulted in the neo-Rivers of Blood "nation of strangers" speech.

Aka the EPP Commission President is siphoning money due to the cosplay protest of the EPP run Farmer’s Union that represents the largest agricultural conglomerates on the continent. Love when conservatives pay conservatives. 🫠🙃🫠

FYI there is about a three month period that the ice and weather aren’t absolutely bad and freezing to launch a strike against Greenland 🇬🇱 with the US’s limited Icebreaker capability they need to wait another month or two do to anything major without a whole bunch of problems.

Starmer talks a good game on defence … and consistently fails to deliver. Increasing exposure to a state which is becoming increasingly hostile to European and British interests is an absurd stupidity.

The reason for this is because of the desire to map paint. Which is slang from grand strategy games which means to make the map entirely or predominantly your country’s colour. It is a crude, but real desire of modern fascists and imperialists to literally paint the map.

What is just crazy about this, aside from the need for this statement at all, is that Greenland already IS in the US sphere of influence. It's far cheaper for the US, in material, security, and reputational terms, to have Denmark continue administering Greenland and work within NATO on security.

Starmer kinda forgetting Carney road a wave of Anti-Trump fury in Canada and Starmer is as of today still a collaborator with Trump.

And I stress again, it is about so much more than just oil.

Yep, I've got a History degree and the lessons from it are far less predictive of what will happen in contemporary society than Gender Studies and Critical Race Theory, which are like that sports almanac in Back to the Future II.

We now live in the country the Jan. 6 attackers and coup plotters hoped to create.

This is better, but it imagines there is an audience in MAGA who cares about any of this, again they need to read the National Security Strategy and Pete Hegseth’s American Crusade. Their endgame isn’t peace it is domination.

Joint European statement on Greenland. They moved quickly after Miller’s comments about annexation last night.

Just checking with how Starmer's crusade to ban apps that produce deep fakes is going

A new Gallup poll finds that only 35% of Americans believe Trump puts the country’s interests ahead of his own political interests. Just 30% view him as honest and trustworthy. We’re surprised the numbers are that high. #DemsAbroad #VoteFromAbroad

Providing a counter narrative on the Nazi CSAM generator site:

Yet another huge contract, awarded without any competitive bidding process, to Wes Streeting's favourite NHS supplier, the Hard Right US surveillance tech specialists Palantir, for military decision making capability.

X is owned by a Nazi. It promotes the far right and calls for civil war and the overthrow of our govt. Its algorithm suppresses liberal voices. Its bots spew out disinformation and its AI tool posts abusive images and CSAM. The “counter narrative” to that has to be to regulate it or shut it down.

By this logic, the government should be on 4Chan. A fucking insane position to take after the last couple of days.

On this exact basis... The UK government should have an active Pornhub account.

good morning the us government does not believe in national sovereignty or territorial integrity of other states how neat

F*ck Baldomort.

Stephen Miller’s statement on Greenland is truly some next level bonkers stuff. Like you need to listen to believe it. We need EU troops in Greenland 🇬🇱 ASAP.

Currently in a very arduous debate with my political group about why it is important as Americans to make clear we do not support the fascist imperialism of MAGA’s invasion and invasion plans. And the ancient leadership is trapped on the line of “well we just don’t discuss international politics.”

I am gonna take @sharonk.bsky.social ‘s suggestion to heart and try to post more nonpolitical content. I think it will make me less depressed and put something a little happy into the world of Bluesky. So if you see nonpolitics stuff from me this is why.

O_o 30% Facebook. What is dead can never die.

It’s actually worse than this, in that it is not obviously made up, it’s just we are governed by innumerates. Truly Rishi Sunak’s maths to 18 policy has been validated in spades.

I'm sorry I am at my most masculine when I am flinging my youngest into the air while she laughs and my wife disapproves.

Parker is equivocally a good person. I have followed her for years and years. She is solid in her politics and views and work. The fact people lost their minds for a person being a bit shocked and perplexed someone made a mod sexualizing a non playable character from Animal Crossing is absurd.

I just want everyone to step back and realize how often it's a trans woman getting bullied off social media.

Many are just waking up to the Grok-nonconsensual images story as these pictures began flooding X over the holidays, but here’s our piece from Jan 2 featuring a victim, Julie Yukari, who was brave enough to speak on the record and on camera: www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...

we need more allies doing stuff like this instead of sharing screenshots of content by white supremacists

if you actually want all that good policy you have in mind passed, then this is how you get it done you elect an overwhelming number of Democrats because you pass the best legislation you have the votes for

“for this is a war which we all wage, this time, not for our German people alone, it is a war for all of Europe and with it, in the long run, for all of mankind.” - Adolf Hitler, 1942

It is a sick country that 80 people can be lawlessly murdered by the government and all the media can muster is how great the operation that killed those people were. America doesn’t need to be this way. It can be better.

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.

If the DEA had killed 80 innocent Americans in the course of apprehending one drug dealer, there would be riots. But we are so ghoulishly indifferent to the lives and humanity of people abroad that it's barely even part of the conversation.

I feel I am obligated by law to say Then FF8 Now Starcraft

Then FF8 Now Soul reaver.

Euros are completely delusional to they think they can just keep gritting their teeth through this bsky.app/profile/char...

The Secretary of Defence wrote an entire book outlining this in detail. American Crusade.

Please tell me it was poop on his doorstep. It would be cathartic.

The Greek PM coming out in favour of the Venezuela Invasion and Kidnapping is so profoundly short sighted. But revanchism gonna revanchist

It begins again the violence and purging this time kicked off by Donald Trump instead of by Maduro.

what a lot of people don’t understand is that there is a good chance that the higher echelons of the fascist administration is majority staffed with anti-NATO groypers and christian nationalists. This is an additional positive to invading Greenland, not a negative.

‘Somebody should do something’ shrugged the Senate Minority Leader to the invasion of Venezuela and threatening a half dozen countries by the President of his country.

Oh sweet summer child do you think I am annoyed at not being employed by Keir Starmer in 2026 😂 🤡

Honestly the thing that is mind boggling is people deciding that the Authoritarians do not actually want to do the things they say repeatedly they want to do, even after they do them. The need to rationalize it is debilitating. You have to accept the irrationality.

It's their combination of 'deep, deep delusion' paired with 'unearned smugness about their sophisticated view of politics and moderation' topped off with 'a media analysis that would shame a teenager who has read the Google AI summary of Manufacturing Consent'.
