It's just remarkable that if you're white, male, and conservative you are allowed to call for political violence that would get anyone who doesn't tick all those boxes absolutely pilloried. The group with the fewest legitimate grievances in society provided the widest grace to rage. Wild.

X owner Elon Musk has reposted his Sept 2025 call that pre-emptive inter-ethnic violence (civil war) is necessary for 'self-defence "Elon Musk was always right "You either fight back, or you die."

People are kicking in the doors and burning the homes of BAME people and they can’t even acknowledge who’s under direct attack.

Buddy said people were targeted because of their “background”, which background? …well Y’know the ones.

Yes 'people were targeted' in attacks directed fomented by the man who owns the website you are posting on here sir The Prime Minister of the United Kingdom is basically writing copy for the Daily Stormer

I've been a broken record on this for three years and I'll be a broken record for as long as that fucking website exists: X is a viciously racist far-right organising platform that ONLY WORKS because a huge number of centrists, lefties and progressivs cannot stop propping it up

9/ This is an enormous reminder that eradication isn't permanent without continued investment. We eliminated screwworm. I said it last week and I'll say it again- keeping threats at bay requires funding, surveillance, expertise, and long-term commitment. Prevention only works when we keep doing it.

1/ Five cases of New World screwworm have now been confirmed in the U.S., Texas has declared an emergency, and Canada immediately restricted livestock imports. Most people had never heard of screwworm until last week (or maybe just now). That's because we eradicated it from the U.S. in 1966.🧵

The U.S. Department of Justice said a federal civil rights agency's approach to enforcing ​workplace bias laws "is unlawful and unconstitutional," furthering an effort by President Donald Trump's administration to gut a longstanding form of ‌legal protection against discrimination reut.rs/3RWTr5a

TL;dr The Supreme Court has turbocharged the demise of decades of workplace antidiscrimination laws, practices, and guidance — and for other areas where disparate impact liability is a key civil rights enforcement tool. As one longtime civil rights lawyer told me: They’re running the table.

there were already many reasons to do this but Elon Musk actively encouraging racist violence in Belfast should be the final straw for every UK government institution to stop doing business - including being on X - with him in any way, and for him to be barred from entry to the country.

Elon Musk is still going and I don’t know what to say. Unhinged racism and unmoored violent fantasies. I would say his site should be blocked, but thanks to Starlink he’s beyond reach (which is point of Starlink). Also note that the original post was 12 hours before he found it and replied.

a glaring omission from much of the convo about the Delaney Hall labor and hunger strike imo is the fact that *these people shouldn't be laboring in the first place* this is slavery, & even the 13th Amendment's 'punishment for a crime' exception doesn't apply! ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

Quite literally everything in America is about race. Everything. Every law, every tradition, every system. It’s all about race. Property law? Race. The concept of femininity? Race. Electoral college? Race. Public school funding scheme? Race. Charter schools? Race. Every. Thing.

Let it be understood any time "local authorities" call lynchings suicides, they are party to the lynching. It will always mean that.

Once again, a Black young person has been found hanged to death in a public space in the Deep South — the second time in less than a year. Once again, local authorities say it was suicide and warrants no further investigation.

THERE IS AN ACTIVE POGROM IN NORTHERN IRELAND. FASCISTS IN SKULL MASKS ARE GOING DOOR TO DOOR PULLING MIGRANTS OUT OF THEIR HOMES AND SETTING THEM ON FIRE.

so I guess my takeaway from this is that a lot of Democrat voters in Maine aren't really so opposed to white supremacy and abusing women after all, they just don't care for it coming from Republicans
