Basically, due to Trump 2025, the IEA determined that *only if all economies similarly dismantled the climate plans they have built over the last decade* would oil and gas demand grow post-2030
But that's not what's being communicated. And that's not the message the useful idiots are spreading

I woke up, put on the news (I'm travelling for work) and saw reporting that the IEA World Energy Outlook predicted fossil fuel demand growth for the next 20 years.
This was reported as a "business as usual scenario", when in fact it's nothing of the sort www.iea.org/commentaries...

Like, these people are private shareholders. They profit when Booz Allen profits, and every 50 cents on the dollar that ends up in their pockets comes from the US taxpayer
I wonder why we put up with this

Hi. Booz Allen (they of murder tanks and those idiot robot dogs, not to mention the $300m ballroom) gets all of its money from US taxpayers and spins half of it into profit and I’m asking again how capitalism rewards those who hustle on.ft.com/48draMb

Is this not also a colossal self-own from the Tories, defining things like "accurate reporting public figures' words" and "death tolls from a genocide" as implicitly left wing
In so doing they are equating fake news, bias, imbalance and agenda-led coverage as defining right wing sensibilities

Why are defence and surveillance contractors Booz Allen, Lockheed Martin and Palantir donating to Trump's ballroom?
Because he's not building a ballroom. He's building a bunker. fortune.com/2025/10/26/3...

Stop it. You mean an industry in which no one bar one market-wharping whale is making any money despite torching $100s of billions to boil lakes and rephrase the Internet might be... a bubble?
A company that fires 5000C light at silicon so you can generate a Friends fever dream video is worth $5tn?

Imagine if he was brown
Imagine the media outrage. Do you imagine he’d have been able to self-define as a “science nerd”?
Imagine what Reform would be saying. Imagine what the gammon would be doing

After I left Facebook in 2017 I lost touch with a number of friends.
One of them was Luke, one of the funniest, sweetest lads I ever knew. We would spend hours in his room listening to Sabbath and the Clash.
Rest in power, dear Luke

Takeaways:
1. Despite outsized uncritical platforming, Reform - the party on every reply guy's lips - lost to Plaid Cymru
2. PC now has more MPs than Reform, so covering the later over the former is bias
3. High turnout beats facsism
4. Labour is washed

Sorry what the hell??
This is the take from the BBC's political editor??
This is the coverage of a Reform trouncing. Of a party victory that now has MORE MPs than Reform.
And the lead? 7th paragraph
Do we imagine this framing would be replicated if Reform had won?

Because if you remove Israeli exceptionalism as the doublethink nonsense that it is, it starts to look a lot like racism
That’s what a large part of our parliament and media is hiding behind.
