Tough but essential history in @fxmc1957.bsky.social’s new history of the Holocaust.
It began with speech. It ended with bullets, bayonets and gas.
Would you vote for someone who wants to remove your rights because someone else is telling you to vote for them because if you don’t they might lose their rights?
In regards to how the right-wing commentariat reacts, they’re going to paint whatever they do in a bad light.
In regards to the public, they’ll be more forgiving.
If only Jesus didn’t have a hole in his hand he may have been able to stop the bullet.

Farage gets voted down on leaving the ECHR… for now.
Ed Davey quite rightly tears a strip off him.

But really, the corrupt leader of a racist party threatening to remove our protection from abuses of power by our own government, should be the biggest red flag going.

If you're "staying on X to fight the Nazis"...you're very much not winning
Nazis openly organize on Elon Musk’s X platform and the Nazi fundraising outfit GiveSendGo to bail out a Nazi in Georgia who donned an SS uniform and assaulted a woman with a glass pitcher. www.jpost.com/diaspora/ant...

There’s a fascist official named Greg Bovino, a section chief for Customs and Border Protection. Folks in L.A. and Chicago know and recognize him, and we should, too. His illegal actions already caused one federal judge to haul him into a courtroom yesterday. And hoo boy. My write-up in the replies.

Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?
Dear Labour leadership,

Oh for goodness sake!!!
I’m told Labour MPs have been told by whips to *abstain* in the vote on Nigel Farage’s ten-min rule bill on leaving the ECHR, which has left some furious. Whips’ arguments seems to be to just ignore it. Labour MPs worry it leaves Lib Dems/Greens looking like only they care on this.
Sounds like a pro-segregation statement to me.
Vance says it is "totally reasonable and acceptable" for people to not want to live next door to people who speak a different language than they do
If this was just Joe Blogs down the pub you could understand it not being taken seriously, but when it’s the richest person in the world saying it on their personal megaphone to tens of millions of people proactively trying to make it happen, why isn’t anything being done about it?
One of Elon Musk's most regular interlocutors is clear that he is using X to *advocate* a civil war in Britain - as necessary + essential, rather than fearing one.

I don't know why the UK lets a foreign oligarch and his stable of influencers stoke civil war in their country.

It stands out given that the UK does not have robust free speech protections, and legally restricts things like hate speech and incitement, harm and offense, and unsafe online content.

Heavily-armed federal agents came to a Chicago neighborhood and fired tear gas near children getting ready for a Halloween parade.

This once again shows that the Trump administration's deportation campaign is not about "safety," it's about sowing fear and exerting control.

Yes, Lord of the Rings is about how you must trust the “hard men.” Just as Narnia is about an evil lion. And the New Testament tells a tale of a wimp who wouldn’t fight back. Next week on “fascists read classics,” we’ll meet tech visionary George Orwell…
Has anyone tried punching them in the face, like properly punching them full on in the face, to see if it snaps that out of it?
this is an overtly fascist narrative - even the misreading of myth & literature is on brand
