Being on social media has taught me a couple of things:-

FIRST: There are some incredibly brilliant and caring people in the world.

SECOND: They are VASTLY outnumbered.

The more Zack Polanski continues to pop the establishment bubble, the more they'll try to use their power to exclude, frame & sideline him.

How much does Fox News pay if you go on one of their shows and claim to be a "Former ANTIFA Member"?

Because I'm ready to spill tea on the Real-Housewives-level shenanigans that go down in the 72-story ANTIFA corporate headquarters. Especially by the lab assistants on the Molotov Cocktail floor.

AI isn't "taking our jobs"

It is doing "the" job.

If we think this is bad for civilisation it's because we have Stockholm Syndrome to the idea that we must be a part of the economic machine simply to exist.

"Some people say"

When we create a society that regards anecdotes, opinions and lies as equal to truth, evidence and facts. 🙄

A surprisingly large number of them think the way to connect with Gen Z is "dress like Sylvester McCoy's Doctor Who."

A screen grab of a Times article. The photograph depicts three men and a woman - according to the caption these are Charles Amos, Rhys Benjamin, Daniel Campbell and Glesni Reece.

Charles is in tweeds and a fedora, Rhys sports a combover and a question mark pullover as worn by the seventh Doctor Who. Daniel wears a blue "Make Britain Great Again" baseball cap. Glesni, unlike the others, is not wearing an outlandish costume, just a black tailored jacket over a white blouse.

Text reads:

Meet the young Tories dreaming of a bright blue future
The Conservatives know they have a problem with Gen Z voters. At the party conference, The Times met a new breed of activists who are embracing the challenge

The style is now unmistakable: satellite zoom-ins, black & white wireframes, and red-textured houses - a new visual language of war
