Running thread of people trying to normalize the sieg heil. It's not an "Elon gesture", it's not autism, it's not your heart going out, it's not parody or trolling. It's fucking despicable. Don't ever let this shit become normal. Fuck any excuse given, there is none. Zero tolerance. 1. Elon Musk

NEW: Public health teams are being gutted by Trump's purge of federal employees, imperiling crucial, lifesaving work. "We are hollowing out our government in a way that is going to hurt people and is going to get people killed." w/ @deldeib.bsky.social: www.propublica.org/article/trum...

Well whether or not he wore the cap will never be known. But it is likely to be untrue, Trum likes to make out people love him… he’s just a homeric character … as in simpson www.nytimes.com/2025/02/21/u...

We need facts as never before. 3 years after Putin invaded Ukraine, I spent 24 hours with combat medics on the Ukrainian frontline. Their courage, compassion, dedication & skill are astounding. Please read & please never stop standing up for Ukraine. 🇺🇦 www.theguardian.com/world/2025/f...

I’m convinced now that Ukraine will be forced to capitulate. Europe doesn’t have enough military standing to step in. But this has showed us that we must work with each other to improve European militarily and bring Ukraine closer. We cannot rely of the US they are not an ally. Leave them…

Just got same notification that WECAN (women’s empowerment cancer advocacy network) will be suspended for violating their policies! Unreal. Guess it’s words like women, empowerment, advocacy. This is fucked up.

If you are a republican and you acquiesce to Trump and the “project team” then you are no believer in democracy, free speech or freedom… ultimately you are responsible for what comes next…

It’s easy to be cheesed of with Kier Starmer and to criticise the lack of progress… but I don’t think it’s been a year yet and the Tories, Faragists and their press buddies have convinced you all that it was 14 years ago. Think for yourselves…

I have to say I find the trump regime abhorrent, but I do have sympathy with their stance on nato. We used the argument that you have to part of the club to benefit from membership for our relationship with the EU. Same goes here… you can’t expect the US to constantly front up for defence and…

Anyone else think that the US is resembling megalomaniacal autocracy, like North Korea or Russia… I mean the population seems genuinely split between cheer leaders and opponents, but the whole country has acquiesced to the gradual erosion of the separation of powers… and now we have dictatorship

I have sympathy , but im not sure I agree. These people are working in high pressured environments which are generally under resourced. At the end of the day funding cuts are to blame, who made them. Yes ther have to be sanctions but not shaming. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...
