Everybody is rightly praising the man who bravely disarmed that shooter, but if you’ve seen the whole video, I want to give a shout out to the woman that came to his aid and the other dude who started chucking things at the disarmed shooter. It takes a village.

"The public is afraid of trans people" is such a blatant scapegoat, a focus and pressure on a non-issue.

11% of Britons say they feel 'very negatively' about trans people which just highlights how much this is a top-down hate project with around 95% of the media hating trans people and a high percentage of MPs.
Hello. I’m a “same-sex attracted person” (loathe that description of my sexuality) & I support Trans rights, like the majority of female “same sex attracted people”.

"Jerusalem can't really be the capital of Israel because there's no J in Hebrew!" would obviously be a pathetically stupid argument.
Realized na saying Palestine can't be real because there's no “P” in Levantine Arabic would be like saying the Philippines isn't real because there's no “Ph”/“F” in Tagalog.

Forced Labor Continues in Colorado, Years After Vote to End Prison Slavery
Coloradans voted in 2018 to amend their state constitution to ban forced labor in prison. Years later, incarcerated people are still being punished for refusing work assignments.

As a 2008 migrant, Daily Mail & Farage were villyfying "East European asylum seekers" for crime spike, not integrating, taking jobs, housing & NHS. They won, they got their Brexit.
And now they're package Poles leaving as consequence of "Broken Britain" and Boris-wave immigration. No, it's you.

Few thoughts on the "Polish exodus" from the UK.
1. It's not an 'exodus', it's a slow drip. We're fine, thanks.
2. Migration is really complicated.
3. The absolute cheek of the very same media attacking Poles for years lamenting their departure.
4. What you can do?
