short thread on the Homeland Security Twitter’s use of literal fascist, accelerationist, and Neo-Nazi Telegram propaganda, aesthetics, and memes — incoming
Please amplify, those with a bigger platform than me.
It’s horrifying that the person running the US Homeland Security Twitter uses — and clearly knows — the exact same aesthetics, memes, and propaganda from fashwave, accelerationist, and Nazi Telegram.
It says everything about where we are.

Starmer’s actions on Palestine were unforgivable www.taxresearch.org.uk/Blog/2025/07... I am stunned, shocked and appalled by the continuing support Starmer is offering Israel, because that is what he really did yesterday.
Starmer’s actions on Palestine were unforgivable
If you listened to the news this morning, you would think that Keir Starmer has recognised Palestine.
He has not.
He has come nowhere near recognising Palestine.
He is playing games with Palestine....

Violent or destructive left wing protest is framed as delegitimising the protesters' stated cause.
Violent or destructive right wing protest is framed as emphasing the need for urgent action on the protesters' stated cause.
As always, right wing men are treated as elemental forces without agency.

This is a bit of a atretch/hope: there were 5 protests, with the largest two being up to 300 people, a total of around a thousand or so people.

people who use AI as a replacement for thinking, learning and communicating should be shamed and punished. the same way we shame and punish drunk drivers, or people who negligently discharge firearms.

This, btw, is basically the 300 character version of 'why are Reform UK polling well right now'.
About one in five Britons agree with their ideology, with them also able to attract additional voters based on widespread disenchantment at the Tories and Labour govts, while benefiting from immigration (an issue they 'own') being high on the agenda atm (which, yes, is partly media driven).

What’s a worse lie:
The lie from the US that Iran is close to nuclear weapon, which US intel & the IAEA disagree with.
Or the lie from the EU that Iran could avoid all this by returning to the negotiating table when they were ALREADY at the negotiating able & heading to Oman when Israel attacked?
