the mainstream press praising rod liddle in death are not unaware he was a bigoted pedophile, they like him for it. the people in their in-group, at the top of their hierarchy, getting away with crimes signals that the world is in order. it is a moral good, to them. the bigger the crimes the better

He's dead He's dead Rod Liddle's dead Slimy, fascist, journo, nonce No tears will be shed

Who remembers how pleased with itself the BBC was its "exposé" about asylum seekers faking being gay

Concerns for LGBTQIA+ people after changes made to Home Office asylum interviews

You'd have to read to the thirteenth paragraph to discover the pull quote for the title was from Marcus Siding, a 23-year-old Swedish man living in Sweden that wanted to become a cop, but his ADHD diagnosis at the age of 12 barred him by law from becoming a Swedish cop Seems relevant

anyway I hope this peek at goodall’s true face resonates enough with people that they start to see through the ‘news agents’ shit. this isn’t ‘a good journalist slipping up’ or whatever, this is who they are. oh and maitlis is a career transphobe as well, which should have been enough on its own

an earlier lockdown could have prevented 75% of covid deaths in the uk and you’re response to people calling out your callous opinion is to cry about people being mean to you?

Considering what's alleged in his sisters lawsuit against him, I'm actually in favour of Sam Altman never speaking to children again under any circumstances whatsoever.

JK Rowling centre says Amnesty apology does not solve ‘reputational damage’ — The Independent

Beira’s Place was among organisations labelled ‘anti-rights’ in a briefing document.

Question for Amnesty. Trans rights have regressed in the UK. That’s undeniable. The organisations you are apologising to have celebrated these rights being eroded. Are you really that weak that you can’t in good faith defend calling them anti-rights? Because they very clearly fucking are.

"Whilst we do not share the views of all these organisations, we recognise the concerns raised by those labelled as “anti-rights” in the document" BUT THEY ARE. THEY ARE. THEY LITERALLY ARE. THAT IS WHAT THEY ARE FORMED TO DO, TO REMOVE RIGHTS. THAT IS LITERALLY THEIR PURPOSE

Solidarity with the trans community and fuck Amnesty for bottling it in the face of blatant lawfare.

How does NO ONE in any position of power with the money to pay for lawyers AND AN ACTUAL COMMITMENT TO HUMAN RIGHTS understand that apologising to terfs never, ever works and just invite more?!?!?

Arnold Rimmer writing his quarterly performance reviews.

I have a playlist of songs I didn’t realise were covers. The playlist is all the originals, apart from one which I love and really don’t like the original. Anyway do you have any songs most people don’t realise are covers so can pad it out. I googled but most of them I already knew about

Sorry lxds, it's fascism forever. Look I don't make the rules. Bt I can only support you in your all-our-lives-depend-upon-it mission to crush the fash if you don't make the occasional online gaff. Otherwise, I just gotta keep endorsing the bigots & fash enablers, you know?

If we're talking epic poetry about a Greek tragedy, surely one must include Pulp's Common People in the discussion.

My hot take is that the people picking the crops and wiping the arses should also be able to study greek literature and Japanese poetry, from their public housing.

Translation: Uni is not for the likes of you, and besides we've cut the places and we need people to pick the crops and wipe the arses. (The man delivering this message has an English degree from Cambridge)

What does "capable of work" mean? Seriously, what is the definition of that term? Does it involve a minimum expected hours per week? Factor in physical labour versus other forms? And in regards to young people on sickness benefits, many people need those benefits TO work!

YouGov@yougov.co.uk · last wk.

82% of Britons support requiring unemployed young people to be undertaking training/apprenticeships if they want to receive benefits, as per a new government proposal intended to reduce the number of young people on sickness benefits Support: 82% (-1 from 18 Nov 2024) Oppose: 8% (-1)

We're cutting an internationally important part of British scientific infrastructure for the sake of £2.8m a year. That's essentially loose change. We are not a serious country www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Anyone who reveals through their words and actions that they consider the likes of Nigel Farage an in-group and trans people an out-group is someone who history will not look kindly on. So why the fuck should we look kindly on them now?

oh no, did he do a gaffe relating to the multiply-accused goose-stepping singer of hitler youth songs who told black kids to go back to africa and wrote his initials like the national front logo? who in later life said it was fine to call chinese people 'ch**ky'?

'regretfully, i must declare that the politician i have disliked since the beginning and whose party i do not support, must now resign' no-one gives a fuck what you think

All you need to say about that shirt is "I can't believe what a crybaby Farage is" and tell the press to fuck off because they wish death upon people every day. Never apologise to people who will never accept your apology.

All the Establishment media types aghast and besides themselves with horror over a t-shirt were absolutely 100% convinced the current Home Secretary threatening to taser and deport political opponents was a joke. www.thenational.scot/news/2603938...

Short-sighted, stupid cuts to the UKRI budget include shutting down Jodrell Bank, the icon of British astronomy. (Many other cuts too, including 20% to our brand new @vrubinobs.bsky.social). Interesting politically to shut down a major facility in...um..Manchester 🔭 www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
