This isn’t just about crazy Naomi’s banger tweet but I’m as alarmed by how many people don’t understand that the far side of the moon still gets sunlight as I am by the people who simply don’t believe in it. The worst thing about Artemis turned out to be getting reminded how dumb people are

Assuming the ceasefire holds (lol) - we've solved the artificial crisis we created - 13 American servicemembera KIA to say nothing of unknown WIA - Hormuz no longer free to transit ($2M/ship) - Iran gets $$$ and benefits from taking the strait - Iran assumes they can keep their uranium and enrich it

I’m all for rehabilitation. Kanye has come out saying he regrets things he’s said, alluded to mental health issues. Deserves a chance to SHOW he’s changed over forthcoming YEARS That’s not: “well a few tweets is good enough for me, let’s book him for three nights in a row next to Stamford Hill”

Genuinely quite shocked by Wireless’s decision. He has a song called Heil Hitler! He sold swastika T-shirts! He’s wildly antisemitic! Booking him is amoral to the point of nihilism

I had no idea until this all started that the UAE licences and pays many influencers to live there and write positively about the regime. That puts a whole new spin on things. Propagandists in pocket of regime. It's why all the messaging is the same. www.lbc.co.uk/article/duba...

kind of crazy that if you have enough money and don't like what you see in the media, you can just buy up every film studio, news station, and social media app and change it

All these years people worried tiktok would allow Chinese propaganda to permeate the West, meanwhile Saudi and the UAE have been paying vapid veneered influencers to regurgitate Royal lies long before this war started
