I'll swap you my social media history for the unredacted Epstein files...
Requiring foreign visitors to hand over 5 years of social media isn’t “security,” it’s unchecked government control.

All-seeing surveillance systems don’t make us safer. They are in direct opposition to our civil liberties.

The genocide isn’t over.

Israel may have slowed the rate of direct killings using bombs & guns, but the indirect killings continue unabated.

As does the Israeli-engineered “debate” in the West, designed to obscure and excuse the mass murder of Gaza’s population

Israel's biggest con trick: Hiding the true numbers it has killed in Gaza
Israel has penned us all into a 'debate', one entirely divorced from reality, that relates only to those killed directly by its bombs and gunfire – not the genocide it is waging by other means

👏👏👏👏

Savagery lacks empathy.

Ironically the savagery of humans will ultimately be the end of humankind while nature will adapt.
The weak & the vulnerable often perish in the wild—in human societies we tried to create the impression that we had stamped out the savagery of our biological condition

All we did was build a civilisation that entrenches & feeds off the very savagery & injustice we accused the natural ecosystem of

Because I'm a masochist & also because I cant help but needle Nazis, I'll be on Piers Morgan tomorrow to talk about Nick Fuentes, MAGA racism and my "viral video" that has enraged the right-wing for the past week.

I'll think they'll try to "both sides" me with an actual Nazi. I'll drink my chai.

They could have just added Trump's birthday as another free day.

Instead the Trump administration shows how racially biased they are, yet again!

I'm an observer from the UK and a white male.

Decent Americans need to act NOW or you will regress to the racial bigotry of 50/60's in a year.

Last week, Amnesty International released a detailed statement documenting that “Israeli authorities are still committing genocide against Palestinians in the occupied Gaza Strip, by continuing to deliberately inflict conditions of life calculated to bring about their physical destruction.”

Think the Palestinian Genocide is particular to Gaza?

+1k killed since 10/23 in the West Bank.

+70k killed & +170k injured

Will exponential massacres in pursuit of land stop?

NEVER until a total boycott by the West.

The West is YOU!

Remember the 'Grapefruit Ladies' and their ethos!

@bbc5live.bsky.social Why are you ignoring the ongoing Israeli slaughter in Gaza and the West Bank? You give plenty of time to Russian attacks but are now totally ignoring the fact that Israel is continuing the genocide in a "ceasefire".

Do your jobs as journalists or be accused of racist bias.

The attacks on Polanski are 'Niemoelleresque'.

The tenet of Niemoeller is,

'Who will be there for you'

It's your choice, ultimately.

Nothing is perfect and totally aligns with your political views.

The Green Party is a political broadchurch.

You choose?

My choice is the Green Party.
First they ignore you.

Then they attack you in the budget.

Etc.

Witkoff is the literal Russian oligarch, in all senses.

Quote:
"a very rich business leader with a great deal of political influence who benefited from the privatization of state-run industries after the collapse of the Soviet Union."

Witkoff is a 'Krasnov' in another packet!
Witkoff is not buying the Russian narrative. He is selling it.

Nobody donates 5 figure sums without expecting a favour in return.
Chinn as an individual has 1 vote in elections.
That is the political power of all individuals.
'Donate' 100k+ that political power is magnified exponentially.
Whose interest does Chinn serve?

Capitalism v Socialism for fuckwits;

Capitalism = for the few, NOT the many.

Socialism = for the many NOT the few.

Hope this clarifies things.
Americans have no idea what socialism means

In the civilized parts of the world it means people have the power to choose to not be screwed over by rapey, greedy corporate thugs. That’s it. That’s all it means

"You can agree or disagree with him, but Polanski does not pretend to be something he is not.

He is unusually willing for a politician to give a straight answer to questions.

Does he want to rejoin the EU? “Yes."

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Reform's former Leader in Wales, Nathan Gill, a 10.5 year jail term for taking bribes from the Kremlin.

Cosied up to authoritarian powers & traded principles for payoffs. Reform's leadership laughably claimed they barely knew Gill.

Will all this be on tomorrow's front pages?
