But the minute you protest against genocide they're out in force. The Met are closet fascists and you can't persuade me otherwise

I'm not sure if that would even be a bad thing at this point
I want to do this, but the problem is it's unlikely many of my friends and family will follow me over.
Probably was a coincidence, but you can demonise the kids if you like
His armour is contempt
Total noob here, can you swap bases or is it permanent?
Having to wait turns to use the computer, and god forbid you wanted to go online when someone wanted to make a phonecall
The army keeps buzzing my house in their Apache Attack Helicopter. I'd thell them to go do one, but they're armed with a 30mm chaingun, AGM-114 Hellfire Missles, and Hydra 70 rocket pods. With its redundant systems, even if I was able to hurt its feelings, it'd likely be able to continue annoying me
I felt the piece is more an attempt that is there to say, 'oh, that wasn't us'. So that they can support extremists while being seen to actually be doing so. It also branded the Free Palestine as a hate movement as way of saying "Look, you do it too!"
What an awful article, it claims The National are a far right publication and that Free Palestine is a hate movement. I felt like the article was also trying to imply that Reform aren't a racist, far right party but one that was in the wrong place at the wrong time due to inexperience.
Fox News falls for it hook, line, and sinker.
I also wish ill on Jake Hay Rowling
I wish that, and also that she stubs her toe on something at least once a day
it appears that @bsky.app have suspended the account of @jessiegender because a trans person saying "I wish ill on JK Rowling" is against the rules, so let me say with my loud cis voice that I too wish ill on all perpetrators of hate speech against trans people reinstate Jessie, this is ridiculous
I wish ill on JK Rowling. I *also* wish ill on the Bluesky mods who suspended Jessie Gender.
You're right, Palestinians aren't getting in the way, they're being deliberately targeted. Is the IDF falling into Hamas's trap when it rounds up women and children, puts them against a wall and shoots them en masse?
By your logic, Israel should have just saved some time and dropped a nuke onto Gaza
So your logic is that it's better 100 innocents die, rather than risk one one of the guilty get away? No matter how you frame it, it's Israel that's pulling the trigger here.
So Israel will genocide Palestinians because "Oops, they got in the way"? That was a mistake, but we can forgive them for that. Is that the justification for the killing of UN, Red Cross, other aid personel and journalists? Is that forgivable? Is killing only unacceptable when the victim is a Jew?
It's astonishing how much the anti-palestine movement ignores how Israel played a key role in making Hamas the governing party in Gaza. Why? Because Israeli hypocrisy is a massive embarrassment to a movement that likes to pretend that Palestine is the sole aggressor. They don't like self reflection
So you think the indiscriminate carpet bombing of civilians, the attacks on the UN and Red Cross and other aid personel, and the policy of killing journalists - all of which is being enacted by the IDF - are Hamas's fault for not surrendering sooner?
I agree but you're preaching to the choir. How do you engage the disenfranchised and communicate with the politically illiterate? The Dems have to meet these people half way and actually field candidates that engage with people outside of their bubble and aren't just in it for a paycheck
So true. The only reason I open linkedin at this point is to play the games. Once I've done them I close it again, the rest is worthless
Too good not to share…
It seems inefficient, but what you don't realise is that they can move their legs at the speed of light
Arrogant Labour politicians think they are above laws they make, morality they preach, living in corrupt donation & freebie luxury telling us that being against the slaughter of babies is terrorism and basic care for those in need unaffordable while refusing to #StopArmingIsrael or #TaxTheRich
This needs to be on billboards across every city in the country
I was down in that part of the country for the first time last week. Speeding seemed like the norm, particularly in the more rural areas. Combined with everyone seeming to own a massive car, I'm surprised more people aren't killed. We have our fare share of dodgy drivers up here but not like that
MAN: What's that, girl? Trouble at the old mine? LEFT-WING LASSIE: Woof! [The miners are striking for better pay and conditions] MAN: B-but Billy's down there! LEFT-WING LASSIE: Woof! [BILLY'S A SCAB]
When they don't have a case, they lie.
You should use it solely to invest in embiggening the number
Impressive video. Hopefully Zack wins the Green Party leadership race.
Free Palestine. End the Israeli genocide in Gaza.
This could be very exciting if it passes its trial stages
I'd argue he is worse, at least Boris and his lot didn't pretend they weren't incompetent fools
I've read many condemnations of Keir Starmer, but none as damning as this.
I'm in Newhaven right now and there's a strong smell of fresh baked cookies blowing in off the sea
The progression of this meme over the years.
Absolutley, @gmb.org.uk was an excellent union when I was a member, once even helped me get hundereds of pounds that were owed to me by G4S when I worked with them at the time. I'd be proud to be a member of GMB again at some point, but only after they've cut ties with Labour
The Ferengi say 'hoomon', not because of a problem with the universal translator, but because they are saying it in english but deliberately mispronouncing it to annoy humans
The most majestic thing you will see on #bluesky today. 😇
The moral panic over Bob Vylan isn't just extraordinarily dumb, it's profoundly hypocritical, and deeply sinister too.
I'm not sure what the point of a non-eco socialist party would be, it'd be like doing only half the job. To me the whole point of socialism is that, unlike capitalism, it is sustainable in all its facets, socially, economically and environmentally.

It jumped the shark when they moved it into a cyberpunk future setting
"It's like when Dylan went electric," I say, thinking about when Jessica Fletcher switched from a typewriter to a PC.
Movie you've watched more than six times with a gif. Hard mode: no Star Wars, Star Trek, LotR, Marvel
Most homeowners see fire as the biggest threat to their homes... and most homeowners dont want to store vast quantities of petrol in their livingrooms #headdesk
I so wish we had the second season it deserved
What about those who have quite literally been disenfranchised by voter laws, preventing them from accessing their polling centres?
I'm assuming some form of de facto endorsement? Pretty poor show though
I just misread a newspaper headline as Labour reheats Kier Starmer. It honestly wouldn't have surprised me. He has the personality of a microwaved cup of tea
Honestly, if fox says it's bad I'm almost inclined to uncritically believe the opposite
Wouldn't be surprised if he's working for ICE already
This quote is what comes to mind whenever the subject of Kier Starmer comes up. I'm starting to believe he's going to be worse for this country than the worst of what the Tories threw at us
It's frustrating how many Americans just assume this post is about them.
Not to be confused with what appears on your report card in military school
Some of this we can fight as individuals, such as toxic masculinity and by creating safe spaces for people to talk about their issues, but other things such as improving mental health provision, welfare and better schools will have to come from the government.
I believe intolerance for extreme ideologies just drives them underground, and while this may make them less accessable to some people, it doesn't stamp them out. Fascism feeds especially on disenfranchised and vulnerable young men, often by giving them an easy answer and something to blame.
I can hate a flame and pour water on it, but if I don't also remove it's fuel source then I can never truly extinguish it.
No,. Fascism is often symptomatic of other issues in society, and exploited by bigots and racists. By refusing to see the person, you are willfully ignoring the issues that led them down the path. It's important to reach people before they're radicalised or else the problem continues.
You seem to be projecting a lot onto the people you interact with here. I don't think anyone can have a reasoned discussion with you without either having to agree with you without thinking or being accused of being a fascist or nazi sympathiser. For that reason I'm going to end this here.
If you pretend they aren't human you're absolving society for creating the environment that drove those people to such an ideology. It makes you as much of the problem as they are. You need to drive out fascism and fix the problems that created it in the first place.
You know you can shoot a nazi without denying them their humanity?
Do you know who else would demonise the out group as non-humans? Nazis. In fact they practically invented it. Its true you can't fight Nazism with good intentions, but neither should you be adopting aspects of nazi ideology to fight back.
This reads like either you are a nazi, trying to demonise everyone else for hating them, or you're a psychopath looking for an excuse to torture people. I don't know which is worse
Truly, every accusation really is a confession
The first casualty of war is the truth - Orwell
Cannonballs, however...

Amazing, thank you
I took am wondering this. I was too slow
For me it's always the receipt for the book
It needs to be international. I'm already boycotting American products, originally as a response to the tariffs but, I won't support a fascist state.
I think the problem with that is you risk pulling it out of your target audience's frame of reference. It might work and pull some more adults in, but the money men wouldn't take that kind of risk
Just tighten the noose round non-doms. They want to live here without contributing? Fuck 'em
Why are they driving down this route? The Lib Dems collapsed when they betrayed their base and aligned with the Tories just to get a sliver of power. It took them 15 years for them to regain any material relevence in the political scene.
In the UK anyway, I feel many of these problems stem from the money going into the system and from our leaders entering politics as a career. Starmer for example doesn't appear to have any principles or values. He appears more concerned with winning the next election than he does doing anything else
What are the odds that trump will pardon him?
I'd love a sequel to this either with larger ships or a slightly different setting. Being a wildcat salvager in open space would be great. You have to maximise profit whilst avoiding the system authorities
Saying dressed as a cop, doesnt mean wasn't a cop. Have the police actually explicitly said it wasnt one of them?
From what I read the munitions they used were not cable of breaching any facilities that might have contained any uranium. What it read as to me was an attempt to weaken the Iranian negotiating position with the US with targeted assassinations of key political and military leadership personnel
Unfortunately the committee regrets giving it to him and even many supporters of Obama felt it was totally unwarranted at the time
Perhaps, but as a literal minded person I found the experience incredibly frustrating. My experience of reading in school really killed my love for books
Reminds me of English class where we were made to interpret meaning into a passage of a book that the author was actually on record saying "There is no hidden meaning, I just needed a way to move the story on"
I can't argue with that. Dems are probably comparable with the Conservatives here (UK) just slightly more socially liberal. My take on Democrats is that they want to be in charge for the sake of it, not because they have any particular values or beliefs. Much like our current PM
Thanks. As a non-American they all look the same to me
Is there a good link that isn't fox?
And he actively decided to keep Guantanamo Bay open. He might have been a great president for Americans, but not for the rest of the world
So what happens if protesters all start dressing up as cops/ICE en masse? Make it impossible for them to tell who is who
Months
When did you ever hear the BBC stating that it must alter “story selection” and “other types of output, such as drama”, to win the trust of Green voters, or of unrepresented people on the left? All the shifts are in just one direction. bylinetimes.com/2025/06/09/b...
RIP Hot Lips. Loretta Swit did a wonderful Job as Major Houlihan on MASH one of my favorite characters! Always will think about the time she shot her Foot Locker in order to get a Replacement #MASH #ClassicMASH
I mean the Dems had every opportunity to close down Guantanamo Bay... Though what ICE is doing is on a whole other scale
I'd be happy to help him shut down his businesses here in Scotland
I've never seen or heard of these before, how common are they?
Sadly they're owned by Unilever, B&J were pushed out. So it's on the BDS boycott list
