First they came for the trans people, and I said nothing because I wasn’t trans. Then they were like actually I’m pretty sure you are trans and I said no I’m not and they went okay well show us your penis then and I said what no get out of my face and they said that one’s a girl get her
I like Americans, I love their movies and music and books. I went there on holiday and had a great time. I am a committed Yankophile. But it’s a dying empire, led by openly and gleefully evil men.
I guess 1984 is shite because there was no Big Brother in the real 1984 and Robocop is a crap satire because there are no robot policemen.
Some TikTokker saying Lord of the Flies is absolute slop because some kids got washed up on an island and didn't kill each other
There's a new Lord of the Flies adaptation, so cue takes like this. Imagine seeing our governments participate in a genocide and bomb Iran and thinking a book where everything goes to shit when someone says "bollocks to the rules" is slop because real kids on a desert island didn't kill each other.
Almost tempted today to reopen twitter just so I can laugh at Matt Goodwin and tell him he is a bastard.
Yeah, Goodwin's a prick, but the leftists teaming up with radical left thing is a common far right trope. It's what they call the red-green coalition (green in this context meaning muslim). Gove talks about it in his weird 7/7 book.
A screenshot of the Guardian front page from the time this post was posted. It includes the Guardian top bar, the UK latest News title and the featured headline, taking up most of the desktop website of: Election observers raise concerns over secret ballot breaches at Gorton and Denton by Election
Wow, the top story on the UK section of the Guardian right now is the immediately refuted claims of a fash org claiming Muslims did voter fraud.
Hard not to see coordination here.
What's a line delivery you'll never forget?
Americans love their world service but the bbc is infested with rancid assholes
I know regulation is dead and everyone is like "but my stonks" but i think if you tell the average person about this shit their eyes will fly out of their skulls.
18.15 times as deadly as a pinto. A literal joke we grew up making to suggest a car was deadly. Gonna have to update our jokes
You cannot understand the origins of antisemitism in Britain, still less how to tackle it today, if you purport to believe that the heritage or experience of Jews and Christians has been a shared and mutual identity across the centuries
Grey Plague (™️) is the worst thing to happen to this country and I include the Luftwaffe in that
No cheating!
Your last saved picture of a celebrity is your therapist.
Fucking hell
Must seem mad to millennials and Gen Z.
...but we were raised to believe that if you do all the things you're supposed to, people will listen in a democracy and the right thing will prevail. I can see why the generation before who spent a lot longer in that phase would hold on to the attitude.
I'm slap bang in the middle of Gen X. I saw this attitude disintegrate before my very eyes. Voting and protesting and all the things you're meant to do did nothing. We got student loans, ASBOs, Iraq, Afghanistan, the 2008 crash, austerity and the shitshow we have now anyway...
Viz were doing joke headlines about how The Left would hand control over bin collection to lesbians and the IRA in about 1999. They were specifically laughing at the Daily Mail, but the Daily Mail is everything now and it has been for a long, long time.
A multimillionaire dying in mysterious circumstances, you say? No, no I shouldn't think that is connected to anything else in the news. No.
the actual story of what happened at the National Endowment for the Humanities last year is even more infuriating than we thought
So it turns out Matt Goodwin's Reform campaign manager was a holocaust-denying Nazi who said he would "never touch a Jewish woman.”
When do we start seeing all the coverage of the antisemitism crisis in Reform UK?

Oh no
Oh no! The far right and fascism are on the rise, what should we do?
Maybe if we appeased them some more, didn't call them what they are and if we said those opposing them are just as bad or even worse that will make them go away!
It's not because it's never worked before that it won't this time!
It's not that surprising a level of openness when you consider it's standard practice to be just as open with adopted children.
Surely 'Countries that do not embrace AI could be ‘left behind’, says man whose job it is to sell OpenAI' is a dog bites man story.
I have, of course, explained that no, it is not good for anyone to get murdered but yes, he was a giant piece of shit.
As a parent of a 13 year old, I can confirm this. Mini Crackers sometimes sings, "Charlie Charlie Kirkie" from a TikTok meme and that godawful We Are Charlie Kirk song comes out of her phone all the time from people pissing about.
The decline of right wing cultural production is just due to the fact that they don’t like culture, they like the signifiers of culture, ie “classic sculpture means white people are better.” They don’t like art at all except for this purpose. They don’t even like the nerd stuff they whine about
What do we mean 'alongside' here?
