It turns out this is just a lie that the WSJ ran without so much as a courtesy check; a lie that endangers an already targeted population.

I realize NO ONE else has this take, but I'm gonna say it:
The National Guard are scabs now.
These are potentially union jobs, many of which were outsourced, now they're insourced, but without union labor.

SO much respect for Zoe - there's no way I could deal with an onslaught like this without getting my big voice out.
Last night fighting an ex Liz Truss minister (for goodness sake) on Newsnight about what to do about asylum accommodation.
Pitch forks are dictating UK asylum policy now. 🤦♀️

This is what it is, along with a financial incentive to play up anecdotes for the algorithm. For a lot of Americans, their feeds both locally and nationally have turned into Best Of Liveleak, an outgrowth of a political project Musk and Congressional Republicans have wanted for years.
I keep seeing the media say crime is down but people feel like it is up without mentioning the role of phone notifications and social media like Nextdoor, Ring Alerts, and Facebook Groups that not only make people more aware of any crime nearby they wouldn’t have known about in the past… (1/3)

no matter how you feel about 4chan, the UK trying to impose a penalty on a website that is in no way within UK jurisdiction is an absolutely massive overreach that would absolutely be used to target literally any website you actually care about.
A legal fight is emerging between 4chan and the UK’s Ofcom over the Online Safety Act. This looks explosive. The UK swung hard and the imageboard looks set to swing back

Don’t. Do not. Do literally anything other than this. See a licensed therapist. Get a plant. Volunteer at an animal shelter. Shitpost 24 hours a day on Bluesky. Anything but this.
OpenAI is now openly suggesting people use chatGPT for mental health, to „untangle their thoughts” to help them „think more clearly” or if they need to decide whether to „break up with their boyfriend”.
This is unacceptable. Somebody will die. They know that. They don’t care.
Fuck them.

How BBC presents the anti-migrant hotel protests vs how we do at @bylinesnetwork.co.uk
BBC lead with a Reform UK voter saying "We are not happy with these men in this hotel because we fear for our children”
We tell of the refugee children inside the hotel terrified by chants of “send them out!”

Plenty of us voted not for labour but against the Tories. Clearly it didn't work. Lots of 2024 labour voters won't make that mistake again.
I regret to inform you that Starmer’s been tweeting dehumanising videos of migrants again.
These videos have been shown to increase support for Reform, by increasing salience of migration.
He has to go.

Starmer’s Labour just passed a law: even if you win your appeal after being stripped of citizenship, you won’t get it back until the state runs out of ways to fight you.
Two weeks ago, they labelled a non-violent direct action group as terrorists.
Labour’s authoritarianism.
