I don't think pointing out the fascists' 'hypocrisy' is a good use of time. It's not hypocrisy, it's hierarchy. They actually do believe that they have the right and obligation to dominate you because they are superior to you. They are using their power not being hypocritical.

Why are this Labour government quite so poor at messaging on migration?

You know how 2 days ago I was really excited about us having 70,000 members of the Green Party?

Well yesterday it was 71,000.

And today - yes. It's now 72,000!

These are self imposed fiscal rules.

Self imposed.

Labour are choosing to push 50,000 children into poverty to signal to wealth & capital that they're on their side.

Disgusting. Sick. Broken.

There's no longer any denying it. The US and Russia are now allies, aligned against Europe. And we need to scramble like mad to work out what to do.

Just before the French Revolution food prices soared, and as citizens starved to death, the aristocracy celebrated their record profits.

The @Telegraph, @thetimes, @MailOnline & @TheSun publish corrections to their scaremongering on undocumented migrants in London.

Imagine between them the reach & power of these papers.
The fact is they are using that power to instil Trumpist hate & we are ill-equipped to resist.

From Elon Musk to Nigel Farage to Keir Starmer: these people do not care.

They don't care about nature.
They don't care about inequality.
They don't care about you.

We need to challenge the disastrous turn our politics is taking:

He is flooding the zone. He knows that media will cover everything he does. Getting people upset. Which helps give him more coverage of the upset people. All just talking about him.

Deactivated Instagram, Threads, and, after nearly 20 years, FB. After I’m confident of my backups they’ll be deleted. I’ll be weening myself off Messenger and WhatsApp next. Zuck’s lost the plot and my business. I can choose to not be a cog in an unjust, unethical, and immoral machine. Facts matter.

Bluesky has been flooded with automated reply bots - they'll offer a sort of confrontational opinion as a reply. They're pretty convincing and we all need to train ourselves to not reflexively reply to all responses until we check
