It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

Absolutely fucking shameful that Ferrari doesn't push back against this transparent bullshit.

Stop giving this man a platform to air his poisonous and racist/xenophobic views!!!

"They're eating the carp. They're eating the swans."

Nigel Farage doubles down on his bet that immigrants were eating cats and dogs in America.

He now suggests there's a 'similar story' in Britain.

London resident here.
There is no Sharia law. No one is asking for Sharia law.
The mayor has cleaned up the air, improved social housing and transport, and all with 24 hour armed guards because people who don't live in London keep lying about him and inciting people over here to want him killed.

If this idiot's lips are moving, he is fucking lying. London does NOT have Sharia law...

Trump to the UN: "I have to say, I look at London where you have a terrible mayor -- terrible terrible mayor -- and it's been so changed, so changed. Now they want to go to Sharia Law ... both their immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe."

Michael Eisner, who served as CEO of Disney for 21 years and acquired ABC while he was in charge, slams his successor Bob Iger for bending the knee.

Where has all the leadership gone? If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the first amendment? The
"suspending indefinitely" of Jimmy Kimmel immediately after the Chairman of the FCC's aggressive yet hollow threatening of the Disney Company is yet another example of out-of-control intimidation. Maybe the Constitution should have said, "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one's political or financial self-interest." By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

It’s such a heavy, scary time to be a Black person or a minority in the UK and US right now. More and more people are done hiding their hate and bigotry. Check in on us, and each other.

NBC and HBO need to stand up and protect Seth Meyers, Jimmy Fallon and John Oliver at all costs.

Fuck the Orange criminal Fascist

PBS & NPR educated the masses… their funding was cut

Colbert rightfully called out a bribe… he was cancelled

Kimmel said that MAGA were working hard to say the Kirk shooter wasn’t one of them… he gets suspended

A Fox News host calls for mass killing of homeless people… and keeps his job

Fascism.

Trump is on his yucky ‘state visit’ to the U.K., one motivated only by a government fawning over the dumbass to keep him on side, and to a country where the majority of us think he’s a monumental, fascist bellend.

So hoping this bad boy makes a welcome comeback today.

Please stop calling it a "political assassination."Charlie Kirk wasn't elected to anything, and calling it that elevates him to something he wasn't. It was not an assassination. It was a murder.

So Tyler Robinson, Charlie Kirk’s killer, is neither a Democrat, nor transgender, nor an immigrant, but instead a 22-year-old white guy from a Republican family in Utah who loves guns and wore a Donald Trump costume on Halloween. — Did I get that right?

EARHARDT: We have radicals on the right as well. How do we fix this country?

TRUMP: I'll tell you something that's gonna get me in trouble but I couldn't care less. The radicals on the right oftentimes are radical because they don't want to see crime. The radicals on the left are the problem.

In such a volatile situation, the president should be trying to cool tensions and not inflame them further.

And here's this Orange Fascist doing the exact opposite. No wonder America is broken when this MF is the so-called President...

Hannah Arendt said 'The death of human empathy is one of the earliest & most telling signs of a culture about to fall into barbarism'

We saw the recent cruelty of MAGA denying empathy to Melissa Hortman

Empathy for Kirk—not because he ever acted like a decent human—but because we are decent humans

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

The absolute moronic nature of this statement is just absolutely embarrassing. Engage the brain before opening your mouth Jerry Seinfeld...

Jerry Seinfeld compared the #FreePalestine movement to the KKK:

“Just say you don’t like Jews. By saying ‘Free Palestine,’ you’re not admitting what you really think. So it’s actually — compared to the Ku Klux Klan, I’m actually thinking the Klan is actually a little better"

I can’t stress enough how fucking stupid this comment is. Go and educate yourself on who and what the KKK did Jerry.
