  • How Far Right Riots in the UK Were Likely Fueled by Russian Fake News

  • Racist rhetoric in the press and in politics has been normalized to an extreme where it is apparently normal now to say Muslim voters are sectarian because they disagree with labour over its Gaza policy.

    For how many years have mainstream politicians and public figures not blamed whatever problem on immigrants, or said that the border should be ‘secured’. I mean the Rwanda deal was literally a serious proposal this very year. Was that all Putin, or are the political elite looking for a boogieman to blame, rather than reflect how incredibly irresponsible they have been for the past decade.

  • That Britain is racist AF is clearly the fault of Putler, and not at all to do with having the racism dial at 12 for the past decade. Even Starmer has vowed to ‘stop the boats’, not to speak of the shit that the Tories or the Tabloids have been saying.

    Maybe solve your own problem in your country rather than pretending that Putin is some kind of Machiavellian puppeteer that causes all bad things to happen.

    I’m not disputing the claims of this article, it is 100% believable that Russia tried to destabilize a geo-strategic rival. But you don’t start a race riot after reading a refugee did a murder, if you’re not already really F-ing racist.

    Edit: Here is an extensive summary of how both Labour and the Tories used islamophobia for their own political gain.

    Edit 2: obviously not all Brits are racist, but the political culture has normalized it to the extent where this is possible, with or without Russian help.

  • I wouldn’t have gotten the joke otherwise, maybe add a red circle and a laughing minion next time to be extra clear.

  • Queer Amsterdam wants to ban Israeli flags at Pride Walk, Halsema prohibits ban

  • Being gay or trans is not dependent on being out or not.

    And focusing on the LGBTQ aspect of Israels current onslaught is relevant to the extent that Israel actively propagandizes “spreading” gay rights in Gaza, while at the same time murdering LGBTQ individuals indiscriminately. The fact that pink washing is a strategy used to justify genocide makes it that much more important to reject this during pride.

  • Could it be that our ally is running an extermination campaign against a civilian population? No, that’s impossible. They all have to be terrorists, and contacting terrorists is against our terms of service.

  • TIL in 1985 French government agents bombed and sank a Greenpeace ship docked in Auckland, New Zealand, killing a freelance photographer

  • Remember kids, always trust your government when they tell you who your enemy is. They’re never wrong.

  • It was quite clear from the beginning that people don’t want this, but I’m afraid there is a certain constituency that didn’t care, still doesn’t care, and would really like to read all of your messages. So I’d say it’s optimistic to say the fight is over.
