1 in 5 German voters just supported a far-right party. It's never been more important to be emphatically antifascist and fight these hatemongering voices.

Leftie-cosplaying Labour copying an American white supremacist billionaire in order to try and win over Tory voters. A solidly depressive state of affairs. www.thenational.scot/news/2495415...

Imagine my surprise to learn that someone who is antiabortion and homophobic is also transphobic? What ARE the chances? www.heraldscotland.com/news/2495039...

He boasts about being a sexual predator, he's been accused by 25 women of rape, harassment or assault, a jury found he "forcibly and non consensually penetrated Carroll's vagina with his fingers," he supports banning abortion. But he hates trans people and so the Times calls him "a feminist hero."

The guy who makes and sells the bombs, sitting next to the guy who buys and uses those bombs to create a living hell, talking about ethnically cleansing people because they'd like to live free from the fear of bombs pouring down on them.

Great thread on the way that digital algorithms are forcing the use of euphemistic language that simply cannot capture the real historical accuracy required to discuss important subjects that shouldn't be played down in the slightest

I mean, I hate the whole convo around processed foods because it's too broad a term that is rendered meaningless, but claiming "milk, yoghurt and butter" as unprocessed is some insane shit

Looking through images of the Mocidade Portuguesa, or Portuguese Youth; the fascist youth organisation created by the Portuguese dictatorship of Salazar. They had to do the Roman Salute (aka Nazi Salute), every single Portuguese child born between 1936-1974 (Carnation Revolution put an end to it).

Starmer's legacy will be the use of liberal centrism to lay the foundations for the most right-wing government yet (a Tory-Reform coalition one), doing nothing to remotely improve the lives of working people

He didn't know what he was doing when he made the racist jokes, when he protected white supremacists on his platform, when he peddled the white replacement conspiracies, when he promoted nazi parties abroad, when he made the nazi salutes, etc etc

The words "Palestinian child prisoners" should be absolutely jarring because how can it be acceptable that Israel keeps hundreds of children in prison; and yet it does, and it is accepted by Israel's allies.

I will never ever forget the first Palestinian hospital getting bombed by Israel in this genocidal war and how the world could've put a stop to it then, withdrawing all support but instead our political leaders gaslit us, told us it was self-defence and gave Israel the green light to genocide away

Over 30 Palestinians killed overnight as a result of Israeli bombing, and today the Israelis are throwing away the deal. Unquenchable bloodthirst.

Fuck podcasts; they're this decade's blogs and just as rife with misinformation (yes generalising here but the bad ones are so bad and so influential that I'd just let them all go to fuck)

No ceasefire will erase 15 months of bloody genocide. This wasn't a war. This was a slaughter, and Israel was allowed to pursue it with bloodthirsty impunity.

Husband got me the first two volumes of the manga Frieren: Beyond Journey's End and I'm hooked (also started watching the anime on crunchyroll, it's a sublime adaptation). I think this might become my favourite manga of all time, it's just everything that I adore. Can't recommend enough.
