Historically, Dictators needed Praetorian Guards to protect them. Problematically for Dictators who overstepped the mark, these Guards would slaughter them.

This won’t be the last time I repost this image. (I somewhat kiddingly asked my mom to make me one). But, just to add a historical point to it: Molotov Cocktails were invented by Franco’s troops in the Civil War and were first used against T-26s near Toledo.

I wonder if Fraser Nelson ever has qualms about publishing so many white supremacists

The mainstreaming of white ethnonationalism (aka racism) in the UK was, of course, wholly unrelated to the racist bilge Fraser Nelson published in the Spectator during his 15 years as editor.

Ok so once a month I try some kind of food from the 70s that I haven’t eaten since childhood. Today, it was Spam Fritters. Fuck a duck, that was horrible. Sort of like eating a big fat flubby face. I’m not sure what to do with the rest of my day now apart from stare into the mirror in self-loathing

In future generations, when your children and grandchildren look back on this moment, they are not going to ask about the price of eggs. They are going to ask you what you did. Not what you felt. Not what you paid. But what you did. And I want to be able to say I did everything I possibly could.
