We're about 48 hours from them claiming he was a 9/11 hijacker

This is why fighting tooth and nail to bring Abrego-Garcia home is strategically correct for Democrats. Their main obstacle is getting the public to pay attention in a fragmented media environment, but GENUINE CONFLICT AND CRISIS WITH REAL STAKES SOLVES THE ATTENTION PROBLEM

if you automatically consider people who disappear a lost cause, you are giving in to the fascists without a fight we do not submit preemptively we're bringing them all back

I'm not Jewish but I must admit it was horrifying when Trump said 'Chuck Schumer isn't Jewish anymore' and somehow that wasn't a headline story for days. Guy who isn't Jewish says I'm the Arbiter of Judaism and that's not an obvious tell of what comes next?

Satan, Satan, thought up a plan Dressed as a man Walking the earth and since he began The world is hell for you and me But what a heaven it will be When that man is dead and gone

Twitter is real life the way making decisions while high is real life. You are totally out of step with reality, but the debts you incur are very real

you are not 'Blue Labour', you are 33

Oh god.

the plan is to end American science research all of it, no exceptions other countries simply will not be able to fill the gaps here, this is just a shocking devastation of human scientific progress as a whole

PoV: you are about to make the retention crisis worse

The eugenicist undertones (or just tones) to RFK's statement about autism are kind of fascinating in that they replicate historical attitudes towards productive vs burdensome members of society, but also breaks with that tradition by seemingly lamenting that they (supposedly) can't have children.

There are physicists who tried to tell people this and we were labeled as histrionic libs who hate free speech

Very good article which (like 95% of stuff Jonn writes) leads to the correct conclusion that we should Abolish The Home Office

Thing about a DOGE-light nightmare purge of DEI in the England is you would just end up cancelling literally any cultural project outside of London, which would - inevitabilty - impact the very white working class communities that these people are meant to be defending

Alright, had a quick squizz around the internet for what something of this size goes for when it's painted (and actually painted as opposed to, y'know, eBay Pro Painted™). Looking for $500 or close to - a whole-ass army painted up for action with all the toys? G'waaaanyewill.

There's a word for that, you know.

Bannon the latest in the “Britain doesn’t manufacture anything” brigade. It’s a lazy trope you hear repeated in the media a lot. In fact the UK remains the 8th or 9th biggest manufacturer in the world. 10% of our GDP with some of the most advanced manufacturing anywhere.

What DEI? What *fucking* DEI?

I suspect this is more or less how the Popular Front Anti-Fascists felt about Churchill

the UK must be liberated from it’s elder population whose only hobby is getting radicalized in far right forums

in chinese culture, it is considered rude to offend the people you want to negotiate with by calling them dumb peasants. few know this

it's hard to find a motivation for DOGE other than 'hatred of the good.' these are bad people fundamentally envious or un-understanding of the idea that you might work or give for others, and attempting to punish it.

I'm sorry but the Do Something people were fucking right, we needed to have this fight in 2021, not 2023-24

Today in "those crazy Brits", I've just noticed that the bye-laws for Stiffkey range specifically excluded SHEEP from prosecution

This is of course the hard and immutable reason why you cannot compromise with transphobes on trans participation in sports: there is absolutely no way to do so that doesn't end in sexual assault.

"you've lost another Hegseth advisor?"

Holy shit

god forgive us

whoever wrote this line was spitting facts back in 2004. it’s still relevant today (i also want to point this out because there are people saying “star trek isn’t political” and, uh….)

tourism is a key Florida industry!

Cosigned. The tell is that as much as libs and leftists viscerally loathe each other, we’re still here together instead of on the conservative microblogging website because the most deranged Bolshevik or mindless Dem Juche drone is still more tolerable than the average Republican.
