So we've gone from "he never said anything Nazi" to "well he might have said something Nazi but not in a hurtful way" to "well okay he probably did say something Nazi in a hurtful way, but didn't we all?"

Keir Starmer in 2027: "We need to machine gun small boats to halt the rise of the far right."
The thing I still can't forgive Corbyn for is the generational harm he caused by enabling Brexit. When Starmer is gone, hopefully soon, I will feel the same way about the profound harm he has caused by making it palatable for the Far Right to ditch human rights norms. It will be his shameful legacy.

They're still coming in at the rate of about 4 or 5 per minute. Result? They have strengthened my determination to see Barghouti freed. When states or other actors have to resort to such tactics, you know you're doing something right.

I signed the letter calling for the release of Marwan Barghouti. Overnight, I've received some 2,000 attack emails, identical text but different purported senders and subject headers. Still coming through now. Other signatories also getting it. Definitely an op.

MSNOW called out how completely out of touch Trump is on affordability. And Bissent is a terrible spokesperson to defend him on it.

Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.
