X is absolutely cooking the brains of the entire political class that remains on there. The ones who think they're immune are probably the most affected.

In this story, there is a lot of support for trans people that you rarely see covered in the media unless they're being attacked. Businesses and individuals all standing up and saying 'I will not be a part of this' and I think that needs to be highlighted because it can feel lonely out there.

‘Carnage of concern and upset’: Women’s Institute groups close after transgender ban
Members warn NFWI decision has opened up toxic culture that deters younger women from joining
At least 12 Women’s Institute (WI) groups are closing or considering closure after the organisation barred transgender women from membership.
Members say more groups are likely to close, and that the federation’s decision has opened up a toxic, traditionalist culture that will deter younger women from joining. Continue reading...

These two things are the same thing: some Labour right dickhead compiling a dossier of idiotic smears and then sending it to a third party to make it look neutral and independent. It’s *literally the same journo* who published the smears, and then got the same smeary treatment.

This eugenic fantasy is shared by a lot of the ruling class and has known in climate advocacy circles for some time now, but is still shocking to see laid out so plainly in the Epstein files.

'A good way of dealing with overpopulation': Epstein files reveal how the rich fuel climate denialism
Jeffrey Epstein and his vast network of elite figures routinely traded in myths that undermine climate progress. Experts say it's not an accident.

Yes he was handsome. But give some credit to the meticulous attention his wife Anna Murray Douglass paid to his care, his home, & the presentation of his garments. It was Anna, a free woman who he met in Baltimore, who out of her meager savings gave FD the money for his train ride to escape.

We bought Article II of the United Nations Charter with the blood of a hundred million human beings, and less than a century later, it's being sold for nothing by people who don't even understand what they're doing.
i think this is what drives me nuts. people talk about how, say, the UN was founded by "starry eyed idealists" who didn't understand "reality." the truth is that the UN was founded by those who had just fought and *won* the bloodiest war in human history.

Social media continue to apply the policy that doing genocide is acceptable, but objecting to genocide is not, and suffering genocide is even less welcome.
palestinian journalist posting on twitter that his bluesky account was immediately taken down purely because he was in gaza. all palestinian accounts are assumed to be spam.

BlueSky is one of the worst platforms I have ever dealt with. Within seconds of creating a second account, after my first one was shut down just two days after it was created, my account was closed again. This happened despite the fact that I hadn’t posted anything or followed anyone. I was only in the process of adding a profile photo, yet I received an email claiming that my account was “spam” and that it was “causing harm.” What kind of logic is this?
The painful truth is that the account was shut down the moment it became clear it was created from inside Gaza. It seems we are no longer allowed to write or speak about what is happening to us here. They are not afraid of content itself, but of our voices and the reality we carry with us.
Millions are spent to silence these voices and to erase the truth. I am exhausted by this platform and by how our photos and videos, which document real suffering, are treated as “violations of community standards,” as if pain itself has become a crime.
What is happening is not simple moderation or policy enforcement. It is an attempt to erase our existence and bury the truth. And honestly, this is shameful and unbearably painful.
[the original poster has included two screenshots showing the email from bluesky admin informing him that his account has been taken down for being 'spammy, inauthentic or disruptive to users'. it's the standard boilerplate you get when they take moderation action.]

And the thing that got called eugenics, later, became fused with, and emerged out of the concept of "breeding" which funnily enough had "good breeding" for the ruling classes, and muck for the common. We've lived in a eugenic world for at least 4-5 hundred years.
Said it before & will say it again: A vast proportion of the current framework of Western technology & power is founded on, & delights in proliferating, eugenics. Thiel, Musk, Epstein; "AI," life extensionist, way too much of transhumanism. Gebru & Torres gave it 1 name, but the connections are OLD.
I parsed through some of the emails in the Epstein files, and it’s very clear that Epstein was a eugenicist weirdo. Something he very much had in common with the billionaire class à la Elon Musk, Peter Thiel and Donald Trump. New for @motherjones.com.
