very strange to check UK news websites and see that the top story is not anything happening in our country, or anything about ukraine, gaza or so on, but some american podcaster getting shot

đ¨đłđą Dutch broadcaster AVROTROS has issued a statement on their #Eurovision 2026 participation. "Participation by AVROTROS in the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 will not be possible as long as Israel is admitted by the EBU."
shit I just realised they actually said âthe Israeli government tried to rig the contestâ with their whole chest, based Netherlands
If the shooter had killed a leftist podcaster, he would have a multi million dollar Go Fund Me to cover his legal fees tomorrow, and an interview lined up with Charlie Kirk.
"create infinite pro level chord progressions with AI"
Short about corporate releasing a statement
Labour: we're lowering the voting age to 16!! Also Labour:
As my left comrades are saying, the mainstream news are doing a 'noticing' of the Starmer project. This 'noticing' is only allowed to take place at a time when it is least disruptive to capitalist relations, even though we all knew all along. It's how power works. (FT and C4 notable exceptions)
This is the problem with letting people whose political talents don't extend beyond bullying and being mates with the press have total access to your project. Inevitably once they fuck up they'll drop the notes they've been taking while they've been innocently poking around your deepest secrets.
It's what he would have wanted
I mean they also beef all the time, the more open nazis have always hated Kirk for not being brave enough to Just Say It
Quoting for alt text:
People say anything now. âCharlie Kirk had hoesâ. No he didnât. Thatâs not true
Torn between feeling disgusted by the Saint Charlie Kirk act we are all being forced to watch or happy itâs so transparent and clumsy because it illustrates what the media is like to ordinary people
He has raised the maximum amount of money he can spend in the election. He is waaay ahead in the polls. There's no need for him to say this, he is *wants* to say this.
Have had to block a few accounts who claim that a Neo-Nazi was killed âfor having an opinionâ & that it might be me next time. The Neo-Nazi called for the murder of Queer ppl. Itâs already me, an infamous far right schmuck has said heâs going to kill me, the GardaĂ [police] informed me*.
Lowering the temperature.
You cannot represent as a martyr for free speech someone whose entire line was that most people who weren't white, male, Christian and straight should be excluded from debate. Or who used the public arena to lie and intimidate.
Someone got dumped by his transphobic girlfriend
me when i lie
This is how we know it was another white supremacist
Genuinely starting to think that they know it's someone on the right.
weâre gonna need a âjoined sept 2025â labeler if we donât have one already
In July, four of us had the party whip suspended for defending disabled people and fighting for the real values of the Labour Party. Mandelson has not been suspended.
Oh FUCK
Come the fuck on

I'm sorry to inform you that your unborn child has the podcaster gene
The last couple of days have made it abundantly clear that Bluesky has two tiers of moderation (for any who missed the way they treat Palestinian accounts, Black accounts and trans accounts). White right wing voices will be prioritised, every single time. Bluesky Safety is a sham.
And as for the dead fascist? I think its time to tone down the temperature and come to a civilized conclusion about political viole-- LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO you can suck me from the back, cunt.
Here are the facts: Bluesky violated their own Terms of Service because they panicked and saw Nazis on twitter getting angry. They took marching orders from the Nazis and helped them target BIPOC and trans users on their website. @jay.bsky.team is complicit. @aaron.bsky.team is complicit
You might be tempted to think: "Perhaps it was just targeted reporting?" You'd be half right. I'm sure there were tons of reports. But that begs the questions: Why isn't there a system in place to defend against fraudulent reports and Why is @jay.bsky.team legitimizing the targeting?
Fascist commentators and neo-nazis picked up on the posts and began to spread them on X. What happened next is very funny: Bluesky immediately caved to the fascist pushback and used the article from the Federalist as a list to decide who to ban. Me, bree, Gretchen Felker-Martin and others.
Shortly after posting my reaction to a white supremacist getting packed up, my Bluesky account was suspended for 24-hours. The reason given as outlined in the email below was "incitement to violence". This may strike you as strange because saying "LMAO" is not incitement. Well, there's more!
PS: this is not the first time bluesky has followed marching orders from nazis. You'll remember that @rose.bsky.team was caught following an account on twitter created to target and harass users on bluesky, particularly trans women. Also that time they protected S*ngal from their own TOS
The main front pages today all seem to be going 50/50 with Mandleson and Kirk.
The Louvre of twitter
We don't yet have any idea what the ideology of the Kirk shooter was. But we do know that the Denver school shooter was a far-right white supremacist. www.denverpost.com/2025/09/11/e...
So as it turns out, there is such a thing as a perfect victim, but it's exclusively when the guy is so tremendously horrible that it's "inappropriate" to quote his actual beliefs in the context of his death, making him entirely above criticism forever
Happy Birthday, Beans
Please help me finish this!!! I have $600 left we need heat for our home and water, we need water turned back on. PLEASE PLEASE BOOST! Please help if youâre able. I have four kids in the house!
This feels like a bit "Use your words! Who shot gun Charlie Kirk?"

"This is no time for whitewashing the memory of a man who did more than perhaps anyone in his generation to recruit young people into the inherently violent cause of white nationalism." interc.pt/4goBuo6
they really try to still play this game hm?
"You know the Reichstag fire? Where the Nazis, oh that's us in this analogy, they used it as an excuse to take over the government and then start WWII and commit heinous genocide? Yeah that's us right now. It's like the Mitchell & Webb skit except I'm saying we ARE the baddies. Like the Nazis."
Fox News brings on Jack "1488" Posobiec for a segment calling for legal action against those who call the obviously fascist MAGA movement a fascist movement. For starters, Jack calls leftists "unhuman" and praises Francisco Franco. Don't make me laugh.
I wrote about Jack Posobiecâs deeply authoritarian book and how it drew from the racist crackpots who inspired Hitler earlier this year for @thebaffler.com. thebaffler.com/latest/unhum...
I'd list all the things Jack Posobiec is known for, but I think it would get me banned on Bluesky in the current environment of automated moderation. Let's just say he has an extensive page at the Southern Poverty Law Center. Anyway, CBS News is talking with Posobiec about his friend Charlie Kirk.
bluesky hearing the cry of "mods mods" all the way from hell as Charlie Kirk has his twelfth flaying of the day
Itâs extremely funny how Bluesky suspended me to saying something mean about someone after they had died, wonder which fucking cop reported me
the more famous they make charlie kirk the more likely ppl are to search out his 'content' to find out what all the fuss is about. the average person, even the average conservative person, is going to be utterly shocked by what they see and hear and be completely baffled by all of this valourising.
Bluesky has banned Aftermath journalist Nathan Grayson for 24 hours for quote tweeting his own article with the words "rest in piss," which apparently is now against the rules here.
1/2 In case you were wondering why the incorrect rumor of âtrans activistâ and âfascist symbolsâ on ammo started, itâs because arrows and initials are common ways manufacturers stamp ammo. Including âTRNâ the ironsight and a direction broad arrow:
Look, we all know what Twitter is now but we all also know what it used to be, and that is, funny
âgender criticalâ is a far right pipeline.
Not going to screenshot but JKR is dishing out hugs to people who've changed their profile pic to "I Am Charlie Kirk" and is quoting bits of Mein Kampf to make her point about how we should be crying over dead nazis. Seriously.
They tried to stop me from posting bangers but my neck was too strong.
OK, but you do know you're eulogizing Charlie Kirk, right? aftermath.site/charlie-kirk...
The Right is the problem. Over there, over here, everywhere.
This is like the old days on forums where people would get dunked on for some awful take and then declare that it was all a 'sociological experiment' to see how everyone would react.

Remember what they did to Kyle Rittenhouse
![From the Wikipedia article on Kyle Rittenhouse: Video games In March 2022, Swedish company Nordic Empire Games launched a video game featuring Rittenhouse called Acquitted. Described as a far-right extremist group owned by William Hahne, the organization created the game that features Rittenhouse shooting his way through crowds of zombies with the choice of 18 different weapons. 75) It was launched through the Steam hosting platform and available for $5.1751 It was not announced if Nordic Empire Games had sought permission to use Rittenhouse's image. 75] On June 23, 2022, Rittenhouse announced a video game called Kyle Rittenhouse's Turkey Shoot, developed by Mint Studios, to raise money for unspecified future media defamation lawsuits. (76] 77) The video game, which features a cartoon Rittenhouse holding a bright orange gun with the aim of shooting turkeys that represent the media, has no stated release date. 78) In a social media advertisement for the game, Rittenhouse described the media as](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:5afzg2kh2472a4fnl45gojgz/bafkreibdidwuszndqdq6rnamfwdd72w7hsx5mi72tk7uwzak5c4pk7d2j4@jpeg "Click to view full size")
the far right is raging because kirk was so effective at forcing white nationalist extremist politics into the mainstream. he built a $92M empire off of forcing schools to host fascists, teaching people debatelord whataboutisms in defense of bigotry & thrashing at anyone who dares to push back.
pretty wild that it so quickly became normalized that immigrants donât have even basic free speech rights www.axios.com/2025/09/11/c...
Are they just going off Tommy Lee Jones' speech from The Fugitive now?
i say call his bluff. either he releases all the dms he had with jk rowling or he can jog on.
why else do you think they rubbed everyone's noses in trump drawing a 14-year-old's tits with his fan script for a commercial with his dear friend and fellow 14yo pussy addict Jeffrey Epstein and then dutifully insisted no one is allowed to be mad
butler's literally jewish and has written extensively about this topic come on
Ah that new evidence that everyone already knew again
I donât think it should functionally appear as if itâs against terms of service to express opinions consistent with those of the disaffected & marginalized.
I was expecting the Reichstag Fire parallel to be made, but I did not expect it to come from the right.
Starmer said of his meeting with Israelâs president âI will not give up on politics. That is the politics of students.â He sees himself as the big boy in town when in fact he is incapable of growing as a person. Students, meanwhile, are calling on him to follow international law.
"I only pretended to be incredibly transmisogynistic and buddied up with an abusive cult for STRATEGY"
It's worth asking why every elite institution is issuing statements like this rather than pointing out the obvious fact that the institutional right commits and glorifies violence far more than the left. Is there a reason you feel you can't say that out loud? www.nytimes.com/2025/09/10/o...
It is insane for this to be the only evidence you cite in your editorial about political violence. The far right has been responsible for the majority of terrorist attacks in the United States for years. Republican leaders routinely celebrate extrajudicial killings and refuse to regulate guns.
![In May 2019 and for the first time in its history, the FBI identified fringe conspiracy theories as a potential source of domestic terrorism, it specifically cited QAnon.[37] A June 2020 study of domestic terrorist incidents by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) reported that during the previous 25 years, the majority of attacks and plots were perpetrated and hatched by far-right attackers. This trend has accelerated in recent years, with this sector being responsible for about 66% of all of the attacks and plots which were perpetrated in 2019, and it was also responsible for 90% of all of those attacks which were perpetrated in 2020.

That's exactly what I mean. The establishment dems, the DNC, they're making sure none of that is on the agenda and they wonder why they keep losing
like it's actually insane that he went around saying things like "im a white nationalist" and if you say "charlie kirk was a white nationalist" YOU will get in trouble
I canât quite put it into words yet, but something is happening, a kind of global singularityâa fusion of tech/media/news/government/employment which allows the global elite to push single agendas: âYou WILL care about Charlie Kirk. You will NOT care about Palestine. You WILL fear cancel culture.â
Terrorism: - picking up a flag - putting paint on a war plane Not terrorism: - executing 250 journalists - murdering 20,000 children - bombing 37 hospitals - allowing babies to decompose in ICU beds - starving 2million people - shoot people queuing for food
so this guy like 100% had a stroke right
shoutout to @peezytx.bsky.social for putting me onto this yesterday lmfao
Witnesses Assumed Charlie Kirk Shooter Was Just Ordinary Gunman On School Campus
I called it
"Gentlemen, you can't do politics in here! This is Mayor's Question Time!" đŤ So refreshing to see someone like Zack pointing out the hypocrisy and circumlocution of the Labour establishment.
Iâm we interrupt this regularly-scheduled DoOm-ScRoLL to bring you a tiny timeline cleanse, courtesy of a purring Franklin.
9/11 occurred because America spent 50+ years funding terrorist orgs across the world. For an understanding of American interventionism, I recommend the podcast Blowback. 9/11 was an avoidable tragedy used by warmongers to further the very imperialism & genocide that caused it in the first place.
It gets even crazier
The rush to eulogize someone who has done nothing but spread hatred and bigotry his entire life is so bizarre to me. I can see why ppl are going down rabbit holes about this whole thing being a distraction for Epstein shit or something
Btw we still don't even know what he was killed for officially, yet were seeing article after article, and slop video after slop video about how political violence is never okay. It could literally be a crazed fan who felt betrayed after some imagined slight.
Grateful @davidgilbert.bsky.social covered this. I NEVER celebrated anyoneâs murder. I said I was terrified the far-right would use this as an excuse to retaliate, and theyâre proving me right with every post. These guys are out for blood. They donât care whose. This is really bad.
TL cleanse
Unserious fail state. Imagine getting deported because you made a joke about a dead white supremacist.
your average Charlie Kirk podcast episode was more partisan, extreme, and divisive than virtually anything that's ever been posted on Bluesky, but nobody on Bluesky is having background chats with NYT reporters about Donald Trump's campaign strategy
They call him the Brazilian Mandelson
