Ian Fleming's original James Bond novels haven't aged well. For example, Moonraker - published almost exactly 70 years ago in April 1955 - features a villain who's a super-rich industrialist and rocket-maker seeking to cause chaos because he's a secret Nazi. Such a silly idea!

Shocking new piece of sportswashing reported in @privateeyenews: Bahrain has recruited an all-star team of triathletes and called it Bahrain Victorious 13, thus obliterating search mentions of the "Bahrain 13," a group of political prisoners from the Arab Spring.

Elon, I hate to break it to you but you aren’t my boss. I answer to the people of Minnesota. But since you bring it up, I spent last week fighting to stop tax breaks for billionaires like you, paid for by defunding health care for moms and babies

This is just one paragraph of the explanation given by the Anglican Catholic Church as to why Alter Mitty was sacked and, in the absence of point by point refutation is shows that he is lying.

Former Trump National Security Advisor John Bolton tells me on @lbc that Boris Johnson "is putting lipstick with a pig" here- "He [Trump] doesn't have a grand strategy."

I've been thinking about this a lot lately. About how using the shorthand can make it much easier for certain people to come to oppose the concept. Some people don't know what it means and there are plenty who will fill in the knowledge gap and make DEIA something shadowy and scary and oppositional.

Hope everyone in the UK remembers what Elon Musk is doing to the US government the next time Domminic Cummings writes a 30,000 word blog post on his plan to replace all the "NPCs" in Whitehall with 19 year old Nazi superforecasters.

I keep seeing DEI being called an ideology when it is not, and the white supremacy that is replacing it not being called an ideology, when it really is. That shit goes back centuries.

I'm not having Fraser Nelson playing dumb on the rise of racism on the right after years spent printing Murray, Liddle, Taki and Shriver. I literally had a DM row with him years ago where I said this would happen.

As a general comment on pretty much everything right now, here’s Oswald Mosley getting bricked in Manchester as he made a provocative, controversial gesture that was unambiguously a fascist salute because he was a fucking fascist. #fuckfascism

We can say, without any doubt, that social media conspiracism now rules the world. If that doesn't prompt some serious rethinking about social media and its regulation, I don't know what will.

My warmest greetings go out to the wonderful people who built their careers sniffing out “Ukrainian Nazis” under every stone in Ukraine for tasty headlines that fueled Russian war propaganda on this-is-why-Ukraine-must-be-dealt-with, only to get Nazi salutes normalized in their own country.

Genuinely couldn't believe this figure until I saw the Financial Times confirm it using Meta's own financial reporting data For THIS $100 billion is genuinely the kind of money you could "do the impossible" with. Crack nuclear fusion. HIV vaccine. Universal flu vaccine And they spent it on this

Note that Bannon and Musk represent opposite sides of the US far right (Traditionalist populism vs technocracy). The fascist salutes aren't coming one faction of the "Conservative" movement, this is now a powerful cross section of its leadership.

The National Science Foundation fired all its experts. The National Science Foundation. Fired. All of its. Experts. And they weren't even told to! The leadership worked toward the Fuhrer and went beyond the cuts demanded of them in anticipation of many, many more firings—up to half its staff.
