How did we get an entire corporate and political world full of scumbags and bastards, all we did was incentivize that behavior at every turn

That's not even 'winning over' Reform voters, that's creating them.

PLEASE don’t buy into Amazon’s booksale this week. They are intentionally trying to eat into profits from Indie Bookstore Day this weekend, a really important annual event for our important community institutions. Check out your local fave or bookshop.org.

Aw thank you, I really appreciate this!

Worth considering also whether it helps with leftist outreach to say things like '[x country] is a cesspit'

For context, a) registration =/= sales b) there are distortions because of how right hand drive models ship, the trends will emerge in a few months c) numbers of tesla sales were already around half in the UK compared to other large EU countries, see: www.reddit.com/r/europe/com...

If I were an editor at a prestigious national publication I would simply ask writers to define what they mean by words like "forced" www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Considering the events of this past week, an old friend suggested that this might be a good time to resurrect this 1989 classic from The Baltimore Sun .

Mr. Miyazaki sir, I love your movies about how capitalism and the destruction of nature are evil, I made a shitty facsimile of them in a computer that drains reservoirs, do you like it

“Reality desperately needs a better PR department. That begins by recognizing that we’re under a well-funded, well-coordinated information assault.” Must-read @karlbode.com for @damemagazine.bsky.social

Incredibly important article. And all the solutions you propose should have been implemented decades ago.

This is an excellent comic, very well summarised. The Nib is greatly missed.

This is what I love about the medium of comics. They give one the ability to get to the point in a striking, poignant, visual way with some serious 'oomph'

It costs money for GB News to pump hate into Britain's homes. Much of that money comes from Sky, which also makes much play of being a force for good. We've made it so easy for you to write and politely ask Sky's Chief Executive to stop funding hate. action.goodlawproject.org/sky-stop-fun...

and thank you for your kind words, I really appreciate it!

No worries, it's because ahoy_universe is my account on Instagram where I posted this originally, but Bluesky doesn't do underscores hence the confusion :D but good point, I've updated the profile description now to at least include it there
Dimitra Rizou (@ahoyuniverse.bsky.social)
This is how it's done. We need much more of this: Constant outreach - and talking to people about actual policies and politicians' voting records, not vague fears and 'values'.

So Elon Musk retweeted an edited version of my @privateeyenews.bsky.social cartoon, with the punchline of power-hungry, unaccountable “small government” hypocrites removed 🤔
