I HAVE BEEN SUBSIDIZING WALMART AND AMAZON STARVING THEIR EMPLOYEES FOR MY ENTIRE LIFE.

Om man slutter å påtale når enkeltpolitikere går av skaftet ovenfor sine politiske motstandere, så flyttes grensene. Så enkelt er det. En ting er et random nazitroll på Twitter, men alminneliggjøringen skjer når det kommer fra vanlige politikere. Det er farlig. Og da mener jeg farlig.
Dette er så uetisk bruk av våre barns fremtids fond, Tangen er oligarkenes lommebok nå, hva faen???

We should never forget how the BBC has changed this country by giving endless airtime to Nigel Farage and other rightwing extremists, while shutting out progressive voices.
Nicolas Chinardet@zefrog.eu · 3d agoAnd why is #r4today giving (yet again) such prominence to a hair-brained scheme that has little chance to ever be implemented? A GE is unlikely soon and the threat of Reform winning it is apparently receding. What is the justification for legitimising it?

Forsberg™@magnusforsberg.no · 2d agoVil du lese en tekst om Elon Musk som _ikke_ har berøringsanganst for det faktum at han er en høyreekstremist? Da har du flaks, for jeg har skrevet den! Les, lik, del og bekjemp fascismen!
Mye man kunne sagt, men at enkelte aviser ser ut til å ha minst like vanskelig for å kjenne igjen rasisme, nazisme, fascisme og antisemittisme, som de hadde på 30-tallet, er det liten tvil om. Og dette med så mye mer info til disposisjon. Egentlig ekstremt pinlig.
Sannhet er underordnet makt! Hvis vi ikke tar til motmæle og gir stormannsgalskapen passet sitt påskrevet, er dette fasitsvaret på hva som er og blir tingenes tilstand😠
Snorre Valen@snorrevalen.bsky.social · 6mo agoNå er det ganske nøyaktig ett år siden mange norske medier gjorde all mulig mental gymnastikk for å slippe å slå fast, uten hvis og at og eufemismer, at Elon Musk gjorde en fascisthilsen. Det siste årets hendelser viser med all tydelighet hva som er så viktig med å bruke et ærlig og tydelig språk.
Eg tykkjer medier kan gå tilbake til å betale folk som veit ting for å skrive ein kronikk her og der om tingen dei veit framføre å halde seg med husnissar som skal meine ting om alt mogeleg dei ikkje har peiling på. Men det er kanskje berre meg

Rich people cannot simply leave the country to avoid tax. All their money is tied up in assets and businesses which they will keep or sell to another rich person. They cannot avoid tax, but they MUST spread the lie that they can. Don't spread their lies for them.
