Doomsday bunkers are the most pointless purchase for the billionaires, even if they could manage to reach their bunkers as the society collapses, what could they do next? There would not be anyone or anything left for them to exploit.

I thought it is obvious that supporting the far right as migrants or asylum seekers is a ridiculous idea.

I want to stay relevant to the activism of Hong Kong diaspora, but it has been full of dramas recently and it is very annoying to me.

No exceptions for Ukrainians or Hong Kongers, says Farage
Nigel Farage was asked about how many businesses could close under his plans.

He said there had been a productivity “disaster for this country” in the age of mass migration, adding: “It has led to a change of culture that has been ruinous.”

Challenged on whether indefinite leave to remain would be revoked from Hong Kongers or Ukrainians, Mr Farage replied: “Eight hundred thousand people are due to qualify for indefinite leave to remain over the course of the next few years. This press conference is to say none of them will get it. Thank you.”

Indonesian authorities are still detaining 1000s of people following the protests amongst them hundreds of children (who under law shouldn't be detained for more than a day).

Reports of police abuses against detained children widespread as well.

Kirk called the civil rights act "a huge mistake" and referenced the bit in Leviticus about executing gay people as "God’s perfect law when it comes to sexual matters." So maybe folks could condemn political violence without whitewashing his god-awful politics.

US political violence overwhelmingly comes from the right -

the side that calls for, glorifies, & literally pardons it

If someone with large platform of any type, I’m talking hundreds of thousands or millions of people listen to them (not that there can’t be impact at lower amounts), has said nothing about the genocide in the last almost two years, what true worth is their platform? It probably doesn’t matter for

worth saying it again but the mass adoption of AI is a destructive political propaganda the way it attacks our creative control & ability. instead of aiming it for specialisation, it's targeted to the mainstream consumers & use it as an excuse to erode every single cultural institutions out there.
