Returned to X after a few months away. Fresh account, followed the rules. But after politely criticising a few MAGA and Anti Vax posters, found myself shadow banned. No warning, no information, but easily checked by just asking grok to check. Freedom of speech, you’re having a laugh. GFY Musk
Why Matthew?
The WSJ Editorial Board with a brutal review of the Trump-Putin summit: “The Russians achieved one of his major goals from the summit, which is the start of his rehabilitation as a world leader. The summit ended his isolation from the West, and he gave up nothing for it..”
What he appears to have done is simply bow to Putin’s demands. But even were Ukraine and Europe to agree, Putin will still ask for more. For the US to drop any security guarantees, for more territory, for a block on EU membership, and ultimately, for a change of government in Ukraine.
Tariffs are simply turning into a form of alternative taxation to cover the taxes lost when they were cut for the rich
Oh dear, what a shame.
it is my absolute pleasure to share that even the conservative reddit is starting to turn on him
And what does your ignorance say?
No hang up with any specific term. As I’ve already explained, it’s the repetition of a specific phrase by multiple accounts which suggests the replies are scripted.
You mean Bill, you can’t destroy Trump? Anyone who thinks Trump was ever going to release complete unredacted Epstein files is naive to the point of stupidity.
He is a moron
Charlie Kirk is a moron
I say “troll” to accounts which post scripted replies like yours. As for me, I’ve lived in the US for years, have lots of American friends on both sides of the political divide, and I’m a graduate in Economics, so I think I am qualified to comment on US political and economic history.
No, I just accuse accounts like yours of being fake, because you clearly haven’t read what I’ve posted, and repeat the same lines over and over “trickle down”. That shows the hallmarks of scripted replies, suggesting you’re either a person paid to post, or a bot. As for using profanities. So what?
Of course he is. He has blood on his hands, and is trying to deflect. Thoughts and prayers…
“We”. Who are “we” exactly? A little group sat in St Petersburg? A little group sat in Tehran? You’re not authentic. You’re not who you appear to be. You’re a paid troll with a script. You’re getting boring now.
Don’t be such a fucking dick. None. Zero. Nada. My posts about Reagan are all about his role in defeating the Soviet Union in the Cold War. You want to keep wittering on about “trickle down”, well that’s your prerogative. My guess is that you’re a paid troll with a script. Off you pop comrade.
Typical of the BBC and its toxic culture with zero accountability.
🌮
Some “accolade” coming from a man accused of war crimes. A mass murderer praising an orange stupid, racist, bully rapist. 🌮
You reply to posts without actually reading my posts - where have I talked about, let alone defended, his economic policies? Equally curious how multiple posters use the same phrase “trickle down economics” when this wasn’t even attributed to Reagan. Suggests you’re a bot or a paid poster.
Corrupt to the core. The US is a shadow of what it once was.
Yeah, on her desk… with selected material being shredded
The trouble is that the impact of revealing the responsibility for these deaths will be diminished as the event drifts off the news. Instead of anger directed at those responsible, it will be a shrug of the shoulders, as the general public will have moved on. It’s how politicians bury bad news.
The National Weather Service issued at least five flash flood emergencies, the most severe form of flood warning, Friday in several counties in south-central Texas.
Early reports indicate the beleaguered NWS did its job. It was Texas officials who seem to have failed to properly warn the public. There is a 4+ hour gap between the NWS alert & the first Texas govt alert. Read this from local TV news outlet KXAN: www.kxan.com/investigatio...

They are responsible for the unnecessary deaths, but not the weather event itself. But instead of accepting that, and learning lessons, we will get empty “thoughts and prayers” messages and continued cuts to the services which could have prevented deaths.
450 million dollars was wasted last week on building a death camp in Florida, while a Church camp in Texas became a graveyard for young girls. We have fallen so far in this country I don’t know if we can ever recover.
Except there won’t. Trump and his cronies will talk about “thoughts and prayers”, blame the Biden administration, and continue with their cuts which will directly impact the ability to predict and respond to such natural disasters.
Correlation does not prove cause and effect. The US was in economic decline from the late 60’s and through the 70’s. Just watch movies from era to see the decline and poverty. The post war boom was over and cities were being hollowed out long before Reagan.
Then what are you comrade. A Putin lackey?
Trump doesn’t support trickle down economics and his hate of taxes is limited to himself and his friends and backers. Get a fucking education.
As I said, look at my feed and show me one post where I praise Trump, MAGA or the modern day GOP. You can’t so you keep repeating stuff to defend your garbage assertions.
What are you arguing? That he was right wing on economics? Yep, he was, so am I. Did he counter the Russians in Afghanistan and elsewhere? Yep, as I’ve already praised him. Like Trump? Not at all. Trump simply gives tax cuts to the wealthy and bends over for Putin. He undermines NATO, unlike Reagan.
Grow up and get an education. Look at my feed and stop making yourself look stupid. Good luck finding any posts where I praise Trump, MAGA, or the modern day GOP. You make educated Democrats look bad.
Ah there he is dumb and dumber
I note how you provide zero evidence to support your assertion. No facts, no idea. Now if you weren’t so much of a fuckwit, then you’d look at my feed, and ask why I’m so critical of the orange bully?
I wasn’t born in the US, but I’ve lived there, and I’m degree educated in Economics from a top ranked University. I’m old enough to remember Ronnie as the US President, and Carter before him. The average US citizen has a very narrow education when it comes to world, that is not the same here.
Yep, and there is your “education” shining a light on your stupidity. You do know that economics is not the same as politics? No? Oh well, never mind.
Unfortunately people pick out parts of his agenda, and ignore others. He is so far from the MAGA crowd, he may as well have been in another party. He carries some responsibility for its ills, but others are far more complicit.
A spectator? Sure dude. That’s why you’ll find statues to him in various Eastern European capitals. But hey, you believe what you want.
Troll
Troll
Russian troll…
How is that lying? 😆 Do you actually understand English?
“Hans” you say so little that’s new, that’s hardly challenging. But as I pointed out, your half dozen highlighted text posts about what I said, does not show that I lied or that I can’t remember what I’ve previously written. It does however show you do not understand English language very well.
You are proof the US education system is fucked.
Except your highlighted text doesn’t say anything of the sort. Nowhere did I say he “alone” defeated the Soviet Union, and if you think your highlighted text does, then I’m guessing you’re not a native English speaker.
The point is they lived through the hell that was the Soviet sphere of influence better known as the Warsaw Pact. They had their culture put in the freezer for decades. They celebrate Thatcher and Reagan for ending it. But your lack of education shows you don’t understand that.
I think “Hans” maybe having a senior moment. He thinks he’s a cat 😆
Woo now there is the real “Tina” Thick as shit
Troll
“Meow”? WTF are you on about? Get out of your little world, and live in Eastern Europe. Better still, have some Eastern European family. Then you’d understand. But no, you live in your little world, and play the keyboard warrior.
Wow, now there’s an intelligent comment. Well done you. “Tina”
You can tell a troll like you when your profile doesn’t match your actions and statements. So you parade your support of a civil rights activist, yet you, without evidence or basis, call strangers “liars” because they disagree with you? Pathetic really.
🤣😆🤣😆🤣😆 Ok, then get an education and let’s have an informed debate.
Well “Hans” yes I did. I can remember the Reichstag when it was still a bombed out ruin before it was renovated. Hell, I even have my old 35mm photos of it. But hey “Hans” who are you? A fake troll.
He and Thatcher finished the Soviet Union. That’s why you’ll find statues and respect for them across Eastern Europe. You? Nobody will remember you.
Hmmm, yes I did “Hans” or whoever the fuck you are. My friends crossed the Berlin Wall the night it was brought down, I watched the end of that stinking cesspool night by night on tv. I stayed in “East” Berlin months after reunification. You are clueless.
Did I say he acted alone? No, I didn’t. But he pushed that shitty communist tyranny over the edge alongside Thatcher, so he finished the job. It’s funny how much he and Thatcher trigger the Russia/China loving trolls on social media.
Fuck me you’re an unusually stupid fucker. I lived through the end of the Cold War unlike you. So troll, go fuck yourself.
Sorry troll, but have I once commented on, let alone defended, “trickle down economics “? Your phrasing is near identical to another troll, on another unrelated topic, so I presume you work to the same script. So go fuck yourself troll.
Really I don’t give a flying fuck who you really are. Either some spotty teen in their parents basement, or some paid troll stirring up online hatred.
Some of us are old enough to have lived through it and understand it. Yes dude, I have an Economics degree and yes I’m old enough.
Wow, are we supposed to be shocked? Reform is a magnet for the gutter scum of politics
Bollocks
Woohoo you stupid imbecile. “Bruce Coffman” or whoever you really are. Now go fuck youself with extreme prejudice
No they’re not. The MAGA fuckwits share nothing with his version of the Republican Party. Zero. Nada.
Go fuck yourself. “My daddy fought the nazis” according to your handle? On who’s side comrade?
This is the same guy who beat the Soviet Union and brought at end to the Cold War. Read a history book.
No he didn’t. You’re an uneducated fuckwit
Was he fuck. Your knowledge of US politics is laughable
You are a shitty excuse for a human being. Go fuck yourself
Dumb and dumber
Generally speaking Democrats vote for what they perceive will benifit the country (as well as themselves) Republicans vote for themselves alone MAGA votes for what they perceive will cause the most anguish to people they don’t like (everyone not MAGA)
It’s karma. They voted for the stupid orange bully and his band of even dumber fucks, so now they will pay the price.
Trump, the man who wants to bankrupt the USA for a second time, purely to feather his and the nests of his close friends. Evil.
You’re wrong, and if you looked at my feed, you’d see it. But you’re so stupid, so uneducated, so childish, you don’t even bother. So go fuck yourself and find some other account to troll.
Jesus wept, you people are so fucking stupid
Well you’d be wrong. You, on the other hand, are a liar and an idiot. But then we already knew that.
As someone with an education, you’re wrong and you’re a fucking idiot
Have you been to Aushwitz? No, I didn’t think so. Fuck off you uneducated idiot.
Nope, its bollocks. Go and get an education before making any more posts on the subject.
The SS directed the construction and operation of Birkenau and other purpose built murder sites. The IDF are not doing that or anything like it in Gaza. They are killing civilians indiscriminately, but then so did the US in Vietnam, as have others in countless other stupid wars.
War is horrific. That’s the point you fucking uneducated halfwit. It’s not the same as building camps specifically designed to murder millions as quickly and cheaply as possible, which is what the SS did. Get an education.
You think napalm on villages in rural Vietnam was acceptable? You think interning South Africans in concentration camps in the Boer War was acceptable? You think Serbs slaughtering Bosnians was? You think Russia firing missiles into schools and hospitals is?
I could list a hundred ways how similar they are, but it’s pointless, and almost all of them could be applied to most military forces, and a large portion would apply to you and me. Should we compare the US army in Vietnam? Or the British army in South Africa? Or Russia in Ukraine?
I point out how they’re different, but you want me to acknowledge similarities? Wow, how fucking stupid are you?
I’m responding to your original “dipshit” ignorant comment. Now kindly fuck off back to the hole you crawled out of.
No it’s not. I know my WWII education, and I have read about the atrocities in Gaza. They are not the same. Now get an education and shut the fuck up
I’m not defending the IDF in Gaza. Read my comments. You are a stupid ignorant keyboard warrior. Get an education
So go and get an education and then we can debate. I hate what the Israelis are doing in Gaza, but I know the fucking difference between the IDF and the SS.
There was a massive difference between the WWII German Army, and the SS. The IDF is equivalent to the WWII German Army, not the SS. The SS rounded up Jews and others the Nazis felt “unworthy” and shot them in firing squads or gassed them and then burnt their bodies. The IDF are not doing that.
NEW NPR/Marist Poll on Trump’s handling of the economy: 53% disapprove 39% approve
You stupid thick bastard. Get a fucking education
No it’s not. Now fuck off you dickhead
