I think some of being a certain tier of celebrity is allowing yourself to be lied to and internalising that.

I can only assume their issue was that the greens had too much momentum and too much likelihood of real power.

Genocidaires do not deserve civility in disagreement. They deserve contempt and to be torn down. They deserve real consequence. There will never be pretty enough words to persuade a fascist out of fascism. James is and always will be a centrist who pretends he hates the media yet works for LBC.

Why are you reply guying me? I hate James O'Brien because he's a transphobe. Because he's a liberal, because he gives cover to fascists. Because he holds up a strongly worded letter written to a fascist as the height of discourse. Because this wealthy man has actually disrupted power. I could go on.

Kafka never even imagined we'd get this fucking deranged and arcane with our laws.

The equalities minister can't even tell a trans person to her face what bathroom she should use in public.

Is there a reason for the japanese language lightning bolt in particular?

Shitting in a bag is top tier nonsense. This is the shit we want to know about.

We are on a list with 5 nations in Europe wherein its functionally not possible to achieve legal gender recognition
The others are Russia, Hungary, Georgia And Bulgaria.

Its astonishingly grim stuff.

I was definitely a depressed teenager before I ever owned a smartphone. Conservatives do not know how to parent and think only the most harsh methods of militarist discipline are effective and they're never based on evidence just based on parents whose "inner child" is destroyed.

Pray tell is there any great record of these stories. Vicariously gossipping about failed anarchist cafés is an extremely fun way to spend an afternoon.

A google informs me an anti-zionist american anarchist yiddish/english café in glasgow. But I am fascinated to know whether they were justified or actually really annoying.

I didn't see a large wave of people arguing we need to deport christians following the catholic church child sex abuse scandal.

Please redownload grindr and poll the gays of glasgow on the green left divide.

As an aside, the belief that you can give yourself an arts education alone without attendance of university is a pernicious rightwing lie spread by anti-intellectuals who like to defund higher education institutions.

On Marx specifically David Harvey has an incredible lecture series/podcast series on reading marxist work. If you google David Harvey Grundisse it should come up.

There's a reason why seminars were invented. Most people cannot auto-didact their way through big theoretical texts alone. There's too much unseen context and a lot of learning they had to engage in to write that way. They were writing for peers who knew those contexts too.

she's really quite transphobic, she supports a certain kind of woman - white british girls, and ignores the rest.

At some point I'd love for someone to actually accuse Farage in a way which forces him to try and defend himself. Lets get that reciprocal discovery on aaaalll that dodgy money.

My understanding is from Mainers themselves he's basically done and its just online people who fell for the grift finding it harder to let go when they were so publicly in favour.
