My proposal for a Ukraine peace plan: Russia should give up their nuclear weapons in exchange for guarantees from 🇺🇸, 🇬🇧 and 🇺🇦. RU wanted security guarantees, they are gonna get them in a tried & tested Budapest format.

Banning your writers from arguing against free speech is a hell of a look.

The words we heard from the main actors of the AfD rally about “Great Germany” and “the need to forget German guilt for Nazi crimes” sounded all too familiar and ominous. Especially only hours before the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz.

Yes it was a Nazi salute. Only fools, cowards and fellow travellers won’t say out loud what he is now.

A paper that understands its responsibility, in a country that knows it when it sees it.

Impressive from Die Zeit. Refuses to show the salute, but calls it out for what it so obviously was.

Headline: “A Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute is a Hitler Salute”

here's what you'd do if it was an "awkward gesture":

"I apologise unreservedly for the gesture I made during my speech today. I see that it has been interpreted by neo-Nazis as a white power salute and I am horrified. That is not my ideology and I am ashamed to be associated with it."
put it this way, it's not a hand signal you'd do if you very much wanted people *not* to think you are a Nazi

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command.

If a man can’t give a Nazi salute at a party for a racist convicted fraudster and proven sex offender, then what kind of sick world are we living in, I ask you.

All I can say is that Britain has a peculiar habit of ennobling people who have questionable ethics

Just to be clear: however bad you think the Trump second term will be, I assure you it’ll be worse.
