Pssst.
Hey America.
Did you know you have a cpl of things called The 2nd and 25th Amendments?
Did you know that they were set up explicitly for getting rid of those wanting to demolish your rights and from a dictatorship?
You should. You've been cramming it down the World's throat for over 200 years

Every interviewer should ask Farage about this. Every single one, every single time.

Reform Party UK Exposed @reformexposed.bsky.social · 1d

Nigel Farage never did answer why he met the Russian Ambassador.

All he did was call the interviewer a nutcase.

This interview is a real insight in to how little Nigel Farage likes being asked about his ties to Russia.

I agree but no to flared trousers, mutton chops, paisley wall paper, kipper ties, hirondelle wine and 70s haute cuisine.

Tweet: @vexwerewolf
Right-wingers literally straight-up admitting "it's harder to discredit the left because the left is almost always telling the truth"
Scott Jennings @Lum 21h um, yes, that's really a problem

The problem with left-leaning media is they're intrinsically more strict with their propaganda to only using verifiable sources so it's really hard to poke holes in their ideology and arguments in comparison to a lot of low quality rightwing content.
That makes attacking their points with fact checkers not very effective unless the fact checkers use misinformation tactics as well.
In essence people on the right have to work harder and more creatively to push their agendas as statistics and studies frustratingly arent usually on our side.

Brummy condemns racist Robert Jenrick on #BBCQT but accidentally uses racist language!

It was a PERFECT illustration of how the concept of racism is distorted by conservatives to help them get away with it.

Well done Zack Polanski!

What can of Obama do? Only the American people can save themselves. Boycott the billionaires, go on a general strike, but no one wants to inconvenience themselves. They need FB, they need that Amazon app and the newest phone. We came together for a talk show host, but not for our democracy.
