Remember that time you implied a guy was an antisemite and communist because he was against Israel committing war crimes and now the leader of the party he stood against is like "its fine to let nazis have a BIT of power". Cos I sure fuckin' remember.

“There’s a difference between being let back into society and being allowed to stand for public office." How has Kemi Badenoch found herself in the surreal position of defending a convicted Neo-Nazi standing as a Tory councillor?

Today's one of those days where it's useful to stop & look at how twisted the UK is. The tories field a Neo nazi: because he's pro Israel he might actually win people over, whilst people who think nazis are scum are regularly called antisemites for thinking Israel is committing genocide.

The UK Conservatives want Jewish groups to meet their new Neo-Nazi ex-con candidate.

We will not comply with the EHRC 'guidance', and neither should you. Take action for trans liberation.

Get through a workday? I'd rather work by candlelight, quill and parchment ffs. I got angry during a training seminar recently when the trainer demanded we use is it Claude to "role-play as an examiner". That is LITERALLY your job, sir.

Alexander Glass@alexanderglass.bsky.social · 11h ago

I have one answer.

let's just pause and pick apart what irrelevant bit Raisin Burpy is saying here. According to her- lots of trans people are just gender confused gay/lesbian people, yeah? If that's true... how come almost nobody detransitions?

Roisin Murphy has taken a swipe at Madonna for supporting all the community. Roisin, don’t come for the woman who has been with the community from before the start of her career in music. Especially when you’ve used LGBTQ to boost your mediocre at best career.

Equality and Human Rights Commission@equalityhumanright.bsky.social · 9h ago

Our code of practice for services, public functions and associations comes into force today. It provides practical guidance on how the Equality Act 2010 applies to services, public functions and associations. Find out more: https://ow.ly/alIf50Zwrkx

In all seriousness, the reason they always get angry at us for not “bEiNg KiNd” is because they genuinely expect to go through their lives being rancid pieces of shit writing articles about fucking kids or insulting minorities and then have everyone cry over their deaths. Fuck that.

"And in real life, Rod was kind and generous. He came to dinner at my house, and brought his family along to one of my Christmas parties, no doubt turning down far grander invitations to be there." Hitler was an animal lover, you know... Doted on his German Shepherd dogs...

We aren't backed by billionaires. We can only defend trans rights with your help. Please give your support.

Fight back against the code of practice

The government’s transphobic code of practice is now up and running. But we’re not going to take it, we’re helping to fight back. Join us

I'm so disappointed in so many people over their response- or lack thereof- to the anti trans panic. So many people framed it as "they'll come for us next" instead of "they're coming for trans people now". They weren't wrong- look around- but it was ALWAYS enough to be outraged for trans folk.

Only Dan Hodges could come to the conclusion that the Tories are fine doing antisemitism because at least they admit it’s what they’re doing. I can’t believe people willingly choose to read his opinions.

flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · 6h ago

Hodges is an occasionally useful guy to keep an eye on, mainly because he’ll say things that his less stupid colleagues are smart enough to keep to themselves.

Just so we're clear on what's happening here- Badenoch is testing the waters. If this (literal) herrenvolk shite gets elected she knows that the freaks in and around her party aren't put off by nazism.

Chris Terry-Enescu@cjterry.bsky.social · 9h ago

It's OK for criminal ex-neo Nazis to run your bins is a hell of a line.

It's weird living in the "just because someone is a nazi doesn't mean they're antisemitic, maybe YOU'RE antisemitic for pointing it out" era.

Got really scared that my blood pressure was high because I feel very stressed out. Turns out it's the best it's been in about 4 years. I'm just, organically stressed.

I really really want to do a masters. Why are they so expensive 😭

It’s worth reading up about partial deradicalisation and how people who don’t get fully deradicalised often just fall into a different grouping. Like, for example, when a neo Nazi is partially deradicalised then starts supporting a state accused of genocide.

Nate O@nateo.bsky.social · 8h ago

Didn't we have a few years of panic over antisemitism in the Labour Party under Corbyn? Anyway, the Tories have a literal neo-Nazi running for local council, backed by Badenoch, but he's no longer an *antisemitic* neo-Nazi because he says he supports Israel

It’s weird how the people so keen on ‘protecting women and girls’ just keep concluding that the only way to keep them safe is to let people inspect their genitals. So odd! Must be a coincidence.

Raw Story@rawstory.com · yesterday

A Washington State ballot measure that would require girls from kindergarten through high school to undergo sex-verification testing before taking part in sports provoked nationwide outrage.

I don't think people are ready for this kind of joke yet.

Absolutely no idea why this could be happening.

NHS staff experiencing 'unconscionable' levels of racist abuse, survey finds

Tips for cishet white men Marginalised people, oppressed people and women are probably more informed than you I know, i know, thats hard for the cishet white male ego to hear But its a fact none the less Your ignorance is a choice, but you *can* rectify it By listening more rather than speaking

gosh, is it that time of the week where they've got a deal for Hormuz on the table already?

Robert Dallas Gray@robertdallasgray.com · yesterday

I’m going to shut up about him after this because I’m as sick of hearing about him as everyone else, but: I think it’s important to understand that the media wagon-circling around someone like liddle is the reason saville et al were able to get away with horrendous acts of abuse for decades

One of the things they don't tell you about GERD is that eating becomes really weirdly unpleasant. Every time I eat a meal my heart RACES and pounds for like 20 minutes after. It's like, hope your food was nice, here's a simulated anxiety attack <3

Those fucking subhumans at the WRN in Ireland were actively discussing how good it is. Just fyi for all the “LGB without the T” types

ECT Scotland@endconversiontherapy.scot · yesterday

Our analysis of the UK Conversion Practices bill remains the same. It is insufficient and, in fact, if passed in its current form it would actively damage the fight against conversion practices. The Scottish Government must proceed with its own far more comprehensive and well-designed bill.

Also see how this applies very neatly to politics. left wing parties are encouraged to be more open to centrism or even attracting the right. You ever seen a right wing party be like, maybe we need to win over some lefties.

Ruth Zakarin@ruthz.bsky.social · yesterday

The burden is always on us lefties to welcome them, debate them, compromise with them, find middle ground, and generally make them comfortable. It’s totally one directional. No one is calling for Truth Social to make any room for us.

Brilliant letter from Stuart Thompson to Jeremy Clarkson about his comments that benefit claimants should write weekly thank you letters to tax payers detailing how they spend their benefits each week.

Things nobody warns you (me) about elvanse: Your mouth will be so, so dry. Like, just, so dry. Do you already have circulation problems with hands and feet? You know nothing Jon Snow. Hope you don't like talking like a regular person cos now you'll sound a lil like a robot all day :D

I'm sorry, to be clear, Badenoch thinks it's a GOOD thing that he "was" a Neo nazi who somehow now is... training the police on antisemitism/ extremism. We are not a serious country. How is he not barred from that EXACT type of job.

flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · yesterday

Even I am taken aback at the new and surprising ways these people find to insult the public’s intelligence and make it more clear the only operative professional standard in force is “LOL fuck you”

Genuinely, right- if I wrote a blog piece extolling on how brilliant it is that he's dead, the same people talking about how "irreverent" and "brave" he was for saying what he did would be absolutely SLAVERING over attacking me. Fucking hypocrites.

flyingrodent@flyingrodent.bsky.social · yesterday

I see this and I think about all the long years of relentless filthy abuse these swine have thrown at good and well-meaning people, to make the country more comfortable and more compliant for thoroughly unpleasant and actively malicious people like themselves.
