It's extraordinary how many wise people still don't realise that much of the right-wing media and political establishment can *never* turn on Trump simply, and only, because he has made base bigotry mainstream & 'acceptable' again. 'Anti-woke' was always about being pro-racism, lies & misogyny.

Further to the right = survival of the fittest, law of the jungle.
Further to the left = anti-rich, limit everyone.
Centre/Left = Being nice to people, sharing fairly. Civilisation and freedom, not authoritarianism or jungle.
I'm not sexist but...[says something sexist],
It's the intersectionality when they say things like Diane Abbott makes me want to hate all back women but I don't. When what they mean is they do. Apart from the silent/invisible ones.
great economic strategy.
DJT the only man in history to bankrupt 3 casinos & destroy the US, the strongest economy in history—twice.
Who is shorting the market?
MAGA is Toxic Conservatism—fear of change turned into a weapon. Healthy scepticism warped into paranoia & conspiracy. Patriotism twisted into belligerent jingoism. Real grievances repurposed as permanent hostility to anyone who looks or sounds different.
All in service of the rich.
Why is it that the BBC etc.
aren't reporting it??
Turkish protests..yes
Anti Trump protests ..no
???
CAPITULATE!! CAPITULATE
But for others I think it's as simple as they themselves harbour very little empathy & see anybody else's as cynical/performative
Because *their's* has only ever been cynical/performative
And Trump - racist or anti-woke - allows them to cont punishing that.
which is already positive
i think
it's a binary choice
woke
or sociopath
i think
therefore
i could be wrong
as the alternative
is empath or
psychopath
where one lands
the other falls
But I wished James would’ve said “you’ve had nearly 10yrs now, Paul, to
a) remember the EU laws the UK finally didn’t have to follow anylonger AND
b) 10yrs to find real Brexshit benefits”.
The UK is worse off than ever.
Will the US have to wait for 2 decades to see any benefits?
(I feel slightly hysterical)
Sheesh! Still not able to articulate one tangible benefit and one law they were glad to repeal!
You do speak to the passionate advocates who can (sort of) talk. However I honestly believe that the number of bigots in the UK is far higher than is generally accepted.
And the vast majority of them will never engage in debate, only hate.
´Anti-woke' was always about being pro-racism, lies & misogyny.
What happens when Trump actually starts fucking with the money? We may find out soon.
What would you tell your friend… TRUST HAS GONE so get the hell out & don’t look back. There’s plenty more fish (countries) in the sea
