That's the entire point of Antifa, by the way
It's decentralized and autonomous nature makes it effective in fighting fascist regimes

Pat Simons @patsimons.bsky.social · Sep 18

There is no organisation called antifa, it's an idea. What Trump is doing is trying to criminalise *anyone* who opposes fascist regimes, like his.

Israeli cybersecurity official arrested in an online sting yet is released and back in Israel.

(I suspect the Trump administration pulled strings for Bibi. Evidence of Donald Trump's administration's penchant to aid child sex abusers continues to mount.)

Farage and Lowe sit in private members clubs rubbing their hands with glee as radicalised droogs commit the racist ultra violence they incited.

Their mansions won't be targeted, they won't be jailed but their net worth will increase.

Because this is how it works.
It's how it's worked since 2015.

It’s clear the Labour Government is deliberately delaying the peat compost ban - which was ready to action over a year ago - to buy more time for companies selling peat compost to make money from destroying natural habitats. It’s pathetic and harms the good companies that made the switch voluntarily

This morning on my walk I saw a greater spotted woodpecker land on the wall just two meters in front of me. And I was so overawed I didn’t even think to try getting a picture. Our canal paths are delightful.

I know I’m a few weeks late on this, but it’s been rattling around my head, so…

Who thought hiring out the whole of Venice was going to impress people. Weeks later and the moment I see any mention of it, or Bezos, and I find myself writhing in disgust.
