Genuinely such an interesting long thread on why these suits look crap and yet how a particular type of crap suit has become a cultural signifier for right-wing men.
I can answer this. I interviewed Peterson's tailor a few years ago, although the interview was never published because I fell behind on work. Here is the story of this suit. 🧵
What is happening with this outfit?

I really think people are underestimating the degree to which 21st century politics are going to be apocalyptically bad; we are collectively sliding towards mass ethnic cleansing being the norm in the Western World, out of no reason but pure fucking spite and empty nostalgia.
Tory policy is to revoke permanent residence (ILR) for everybody who does not earn £38k - deporting most nurses who have ILR

This is put in the video as "who is unlikely to contribute more than they cost"

NB: video does not say EU settled status is exempt

No govt since Idi Amin has done this

#NoKings event in Fairhope, Al.
A woman was arrested for "lewd conduct" because she was dressed in penis suit with a sign that said "No dick-tator"
3 cops on a 53 yo woman.
A breathalyser would’ve saved a lot of time
An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative
Well, to be the stereotypical bluesky pedant for a moment, some of our private schools do (ask Alex Massie)
These youtube petrolheads, spend their lives thinking about and being around cars but then shit on EVs cos 'you have to wait for it to be charged' - mate you're missing out on being in your motor even more, ever think of that? How is that a downside to you, professed car guy :/

I’m all for any politician who exposes Farage for what he is.

But lumping two parties who speak up for immigrants with a far-right party which wants to expel them is not only stupid, it’s offensive.

What’s more, it’s deliberate.

For God’s sake grow up.
Ed Davey: “I worry that the populism we’re hearing from all types, whether it’s former Liberal Democrat Mr Polanski, whether it’s the SNP, or whether it’s Nigel Farage, it seems to be they want to divide people. They want to blame people. And I don’t think that’s a way you build a strong society.”

The Lib Dems beat Reform at the election but lost the media war. Now their leader warns that Farage and Robinson seek to tear Britain apart for personal gain

duncan posts this bemoany loser shite because literally no one else believes the nonsense he does
In the minds of the public, of our politics, and of the real policy platforms of the parties involved - The reason this is such a difficult circle to square is because Plaid and the SNP (and Greens) sit significantly to the left of Labour especially on social issues such as immigration.

Over the last 24 hours Reform, with just a single policy announcement, have put fear where previously there was none into the hearts of millions of UK residents.

No 10 and the Chancellor have said nothing about the ethics of this.

I have no words left for them.

PATEL: The estate of Epstein has a voluminous amount of information that they have not released

LIEU: Wouldn't it be great if the FBI subpoenaed the estate?

P: The estate is under no obligation to provide that information

L: That's just false. You're the frickin' FBI! You can subpoena information

NOTHING will prepare you for this 45-second story arc. From "I'm just doing this because I love the flag, it's totally grassroots, and I'm not part of anything political"... to who actually gave him the flags the night before.

Anyone who believes it is an innocent movement needs to see this.
