Repost as much as possible. Allegedly speaks for the working classes, but continually votes against bills that would make the working classes lives better. If you thought the Tories were horrendous in the 14 years leading up until the last GE. Farage, & Reform Limited would be much more worse.

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought:
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB
- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS
- 500,000 from lack of vaccines
- 550,000 from lack of food aid
- 290,000 from malaria
- 310,000 from TB
Killing children is by design, I'm afraid. "Pro-natalists" like Musk claim they aren't racist, but their pressure to have children is solely focused on white women, while they back policies that literally kill of non-white children.
He's a eugenicist.

Opinion | Musk Said No One Has Died Since Aid Was Cut. That Isn’t True.

Don't sell our NHS for a trade deal with Trump
Our NHS is not for sale. Trade talks with Trump must not open the door to US healthcare profiting from our NHS. Keir Starmer must protect our NHS by keeping it off the table during deal negotiations....

Elon Musk’s DOGE project: a dystopian joke where tech bros with zero governance experience get to “optimize” the state. The response? Well-deserved mockery. Maybe next, he’ll replace surgeons with YouTubers because they “learn fast.”
Some of you are making us proud with the fuckery you're dishing out! Keep it up! #Anonymous #HumanRights wagingnonviolence.org/2025/02/doge...
DOGE is hiring. The response did not disappoint.
DOGE’s hiring site has become a focal point for outrage, underscoring the important role humor and rebellious defiance play in bleak times.

I know there is a lot going on right now, but this is one of worst things they have done so far, will affect cancer research and trials, the search for cures, innovation and competitiveness, our universities. Your lives.

This is what should be on every front page right now. What's happening in the US right now is an illegal power grab by a private citizen. IT'S A COUP.
It's a digital coup. It's Musk who's leading it. The consequences are terrifying. And it's coming for us next.
