Having a serious disability and looking perfectly fine means I get to hear so much stuff first hand from people who "just can't talk about these things".

If you can't talk about it then why do I know all your opinions of people you dont realise are just like me?

I keep seeing supposedly progressive podcasts saying “the problem is that people feel like they just can’t talk about these issues” while these issues are frequently the *only* thing that people are talking about 😩

Am struggling with the idea that people like me somehow don't understand the legitimate concerns of people who attended the Tommy Robinson march. I literally had National Front fliers through my letterbox in my childhood in Greater London and I went to school and university with actual fascists.

The answer to how do we stop people being harmed and killed with weapons is to add more weapons, this cannot go wrong, there is no evidence that this would go wrong.

It’s funny how all these dipshit make thousands from their substacks when they don’t understand basic political theory

Please can Sensibles stop talking about Labour as being part of a 'left bloc' when they are quite clearly & even say so themselves part of a 'right bloc'

Sam Freedman @samfr.bsky.social

Notable in today's YouGov that the centre/ left bloc - Lab/Green/LD/SNP are on 54%. With Reform/Tories on 43%. That's the biggest differential in a long time.
I think useful to track blocs given instability between parties at the moment.

Labour willing to work with Reform to oust

Threats, harassment, abuse and property damage are already crimes. This would just further shield elected officials from accountability for their actions.

"The right to peaceful protest is not in question."

It certainly seems to be.

Punishing those that spend and rewarding those that hoard still isn't having the effect we keep being told it'll have.

So, firstly, the whole "echo chamber" argument has been found (in an academic study) to be far less true online than in real life. Secondly, the centre have insisted "debate will save us" for the last decade and look where it got us. As such, policing how we police our feeds is a Bad Take™️

funny how the hard choices are always for those who are the most vulnerable, who are the ones that spend money and put back into the economy and not the super rich who extract as much out of the economy as they can.

can’t tell if my antidepressants aren’t working or if they just weren’t built for this. like, zoloft was introduced in the 90s it barely needed to work then. if you got sad you could just buy a house.

I can't stand these people, they think they're all nice and polite while backing terfs and transpobes, why do they think they're so fucking superior?

If you think I'm going to be nice and polite to you, while you back a party and politician who's happy to push trans people under the bus you can think again.
