@lawrencemckay.bsky.social hype for a new BES (and an update to the British Voter bot...)
I really don't think it should be tenable for Labour government ministers to have still remained mute about such a visible, vocal rise of racist abuse in our country by this rally on 13th September, being held by Tommy Robinson, with the proactive support of Elon Musk, the radicalised X owner
@nutedawn.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social what do you think about this progressive candidate in Maine? He says he wants to take on the current democratic establishment to serve working people prospect.org/politics/202...
@deargodwhatnow.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social @danwaterfield.bsky.social you will like this version of one day more from israel 1987. it concludes with the raising of the red flag www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yx_...
Prominent far-right influencers have been attempting to rehabilitate Hitler's reputation. That's not an exaggeration; it's easily documented. I wrote about why they are doing this, what they hope to gain, and what it means for America.

@jayzedbee.bsky.social @tyron.bsky.social @danwaterfield.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social I saw this video that says this lesbian couple capture possums at night and I was like this promotes the lgbt community so I will send to Tyron and Chris but then I was like maybe they wouldn’t get it Dan might

@danwaterfield.bsky.social @puzzledbyadream.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social dan what was your final judgement?
are you ok jay? @cjterry.bsky.social
Aw neat, Taylor Lorenz is downplaying antisemitism among the left on Twitter in the face of Contrapoints citing specific examples. That's fun.
I was searching for the charity my parents did work for but they only operate in MK. I also found this email that made me very sad in some ways about how the party has changed :(
that is very kind of you. I hope it is a passing mark.

@nutedawn.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social @abradacabla.bsky.social nute is married so lives a traditional conservative life. NFL is conservative but what about the mets? are they pro democratic or pro republican?
@thegoblinpoet.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social this will reassure you Dan is praising the military industrial complex
I sent a motivational clip of Michael Scott overcoming many obstacles in his goal of achieving greatness. I hope Poland was nice it is a lovely country full of wonderful people
Bluesky isn't going to like this take, but speaking in the vernacular of American Christianity is probably something more progressive Christian candidates should be doing, especially as MAGA becomes increasingly post-Christian.

@danwaterfield.bsky.social Dan can you investigate whether Chris is annoyed with me because I messaged him and he didn’t reply after a while. Chris highly respects you as a possum being

So my follow-up question here is: ignore everything about AI, are suitable safeguards being put in place to copy-and-paste constituents messages into a remote service?

@jayzedbee.bsky.social @tyron.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social @danwaterfield.bsky.social Rosely Roth was the first open lesbian to appear on Brazilian TV. She also used the law to advocate for LGBT rights in Brazil. She was from Jewish Sao Paulo too.

“A new categorical imperative has been imposed by Hitler upon unfree mankind: to arrange their thoughts and actions so that Auschwitz will not repeat itself, so that nothing similar will happen.” (Negative Dialectics)
Adorno: “The premier demand upon all education is that Auschwitz not happen again. Every debate about the ideals of education is trivial and inconsequential compared to this single ideal: never again Auschwitz."

though david shor would probably be more on the woke? end of the spectrum if you were to ask for the views he advocates
I think david shor has laid some of this out - but mostly it involves reallocating capital as proposed by some import swedish social democratic economist (Rudolf Meidner) rather than micromanaging the labour market
@eleanor.lockhart.contact do you think you are doing better than before? you seemed last down last time I saw your posts? if this is too personal apologies. a lot of this site is very viscous and nasty and personal sometimes so I can understand taking a break
You can't fool me, Solly with the corporate sweater, you still have your beard and peyos and you went by Shloimy when you sat across the room from me in yeshiva. Now you write endless posts about The Grind.
with a family with a surprisingly high number of communist/former communist zionists this makes a lot of sense
@cjterry.bsky.social @aremay.bsky.social dan has accomplished something in life. please accredit him with high praise
@nutedawn.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social imagine a scientist that lived in nute's day. how long would it take them to build a phone? www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NHr...
this is sickening and depraved and I cannot bring myself to believe a mainstream british outlet such as sky news would call for it
frankly this does not even pass the low bar that is political journalism. whatever the polls say, murdering unarmed people fleeing for their lives is inhuman and evil
It's barbaric and evil for the RN to massacre unarmed civilians.
this is a very well framed photo!
@jayzedbee.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social what do you think about china's new export hub in brazil? It is being built in sao paulo, which jay has previously said is her second favourite city in brazil because of the song about it www.youtube.com/watch?v=A4l_...
Well I'm sure nothing bad came of this
@danwaterfield.bsky.social @cjterry.bsky.social Dan you are a year older a year wiser. Happy birthday

Sent my wife a text in the style of democratic fundraising messages.
Rabbi Alex Goldberg describes how "the 'migrant crisis' is not about numbers, but about people" - one of whom is Miriam, a young Jewish refugee from Honduras
for the alternative view -> Ezra Klein's podcast on how social media propelled the unknown to political superstardom can recommend
videos e.g. where Mamdani walks around Trump voting Queens and talks to ordinary people about lowering the cost of living got shared significantly less, but came to represent the centre of his appeal
@cjterry.bsky.social @danwaterfield.bsky.social local working class hero from Milton Keynes pictured here (Greg Rutherford)
@lawrencemckay.bsky.social james austin references a david shor point. posts on social media which did best interactions/engagement/donations did worst with voter persusation (appealing mostly to engaged, educated minority). this was even true with mamdani's famous social media campaign for mayor.
Fantastic to speak to some of the schemes benefitting from the HS2 Innovation Accelerator. Landmark infrastructure projects like this don’t just generate economic growth through speedier commutes - they also empower SMEs to help deliver the projects, and that’s just as transformative.
@cjterry.bsky.social I think all MPs should watch mythbusters. my favourite episode is when Obama was on www.youtube.com/watch?v=lkkF...
Eighty rabbis - including the former chief rabbi of Ireland - sign letter stating 'Judaism’s vision of justice and compassion extends to all human beings'
In this morning's newsletter, I wrote about an under-appreciated problem for liberalism — its total failure to cultivate young talent www.vox.com/on-the-right...
I have not heard anything at all from government ministers nor the opposition nor many media outlets about the dangers of this epidemic of sweeping casual racism. It is sometimes seen as comical - as with Rupert Lowe and the rowers - but it is dangerous and dehumanising
Great Yarmouth MP Rupert Lowe faces backlash after replying “ban it” to fascist account praising Hitler and denying Holocaust
@cjterry.bsky.social do not worry you are never out of place
Russian missiles damaged a historic Jewish cemetery in Ukraine today: www.ynetnews.com/article/s1bc...
"fight club" is the best example of the last man fukuyama worries about in his work "The End of History and the Last Man"
who knows maybe keir starmer reads your posts and considers them in his policy making.
