We should not let these fucking creeps normalise turning up at crime scenes to wank out their fan fiction at the hopes of starting a race riot. A child died - have some fucking respect & stop trying to use her body as a toy to put some meaning into your miserable life

He’s 💯 right here. Easy to focus on the horse race of who could be the next one, but the real fix is breaking apart the system that allows these guys to rise in the first place

If you’re an influencer influencing on various platforms do try and source the material you are citing for your pieces. Someone has had to do the work to find this stuff out that you are monetising. So the right thing might be to tell your listeners/viewers where it has come from
Why are you commenting if you don’t know the specifics of the case!!!!!

as President, i will declare all conflicts merely an extension of World War Two, allowing me to shift any blame for dead servicemen and women to FDR and sail cleanly to re-election
The Intercept@theintercept.com · 23h agoThe Pentagon is using a new method of tallying the number of U.S. soldiers killed and wounded in the Iran war that a U.S. government official said was “designed to obscure the count.”
In a better world, Miguel Maduro, the author of this article, would be among the first people drafted in to work on the complete reboot of Fifa. The headline is provocative; but, like @tariqpanja.bsky.social, I agree it is correct. Removing Infantino is only the pre-condition of an overhaul.
Infantino is not the problem
Fifa’s regulatory functions must be separated from its commercial activities

This is *such* a revealing line about Kemi's world view and contempt for those who do the day to day work of keeping our society functioning
Quite impressive to completely undermine your own defence and insult most of your party's elected officials in the same sentence.
Chris Terry-Enescu@cjterry.bsky.social · 11h agoIt's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.
If this is true, then Morecambe's owners are no better than the ones who went before. Repeatedly failing to pay pension contributions, when you are legally obliged to, is indicative of either moral or financial bankruptcy. Possibly both.
The state of this. A lovely day out for Badenoch and Philp, playing dress up and making pronouncements about early release schemes - having left the country with one hundred available men's prison places, after fourteen years in charge. You read that right. One hundred places.

my neighborhood 7-11 closed a couple years ago and tried to reopen but couldn’t get the permit approved because there’s a preschool next door and 7-11s sell alcohol (the previous permit was grandfathered in). i saw a fence going up around the lot recently and looked up what was moving in: a gun shop

David Higham@oldtrotter.bsky.social · 3d agoDear me.
From a historical perspective it's a genuinely strange state of affairs that the Church of England turns out to be too woke for much of the modern right. But really it just feels like: having a consistent moral code that demands taking Lessers and Outgroup seriously is impossible for populist right.

Liam Thorp@liamthorp.bsky.social · 3d agoAndy Burnham correctly points out in an interview that small boat crossings are massively down this year compared with last. The comments in the post are filled with people suggesting he is lying about this very clear, data-evidenced fact. It’s almost as though they don’t want it to he true…
