Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

It's not a swipe.
Not a thing on the wiki about how he did nothing but swipe. :(

He's not known "today" as a plagiarist, he was known at the time as someone who copied and recontextualised comic panels for his own purposes. To interesting and powerful effect, imo.

It's worse than you think, his full name is Kevin Birdcage
Watching THE BIRDCAGE and I forgot Gene Hackman's character is named "Kevin." I'm sorry but that's wrong. That face cannot be named Kevin

GenAI is a fascist product. Sorry you don’t have the moral fortitude to do your own thinking, but fascists love that

There is going to be a new Piss Tax, twenty percent of all your piss must be sent directly to Sir Keir at his house. There will be additional tariffs on piss that is deemed "reeking", "minging" etc
Keir Starmer: "The Chancellor will set out the Budget in just a few minutes time."

In fact, the OBR did it just a few minutes ago.

Yeah the pre-emptive nihilism people display is *very obviously* a self-fulfilling prophesy and extremely in fact part of shifting our cultural norms in exactly the direction Farage et al would prefer. Care, care simply because it matters, and it matters to you. Say as much publicly.
All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.

It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

Very interesting. A study a while back found that people who really loved eg. Superman were less likely to help their fellow man. I wonder if it makes a difference if Superman is "there"? Or does it only work with Batman?
