Even more questions now about Quadrature Capital, Palantir and Peter Mandelson. The questions are ultimately about who has bought and paid for this Labour Government?

Watching the destruction of education and attention happen, reading levels drop to pre-World War levels, and seeing anti-intellectualism become the dominant mode of being, and concluding that people just don’t want to read books anymore. This shit is so boring.

Today in The Nation: Momodou ✊🏿 writes about his hours-long detention by UK border agents at Heathrow last month—under completely spurious terrorism laws. A really disturbing reminder of how the global security state works. thenation.com/article/activi…

In the UK, things are never racist unless a direct slur is used

This is the problem with turning individuals into symbols of evil. We live in a capitalist world system built on colonialism, imperialism, anti-Blackness, misogyny, Islamophobia, etc. We don't need to get rid of any one person. We need to completely upend the world system.

A "Sir" worth £30,000,000,000 and who moved his residency to Monaco to avoid tax....calls out immigrants as the problem. This man is the manifestation of all that's wrong with society, not the poor person seeking a better life.

YESSSSSSSSS!!!!!! this is incredible news and a huge victory for fundamental human right to take action, to protest and resist complicity in genocide and war crimes. huge love and solidarity to the tireless efforts of everyone involved in this ✊🏼

🚨 BREAKING: The High Court has ruled that the Government’s banning of Palestine Action using the Terrorism Act is unlawful

Palantir, a US spy-tech firm, has been given access to millions of NHS patient records. Its founder has said the NHS should be 'ripped up'. Join me in calling on the government to end the dangerous Palantir contract. you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/stop…

This win is not because of the good conscience of the British government, it is thanks to the sacrifices of the political prisoners, the thousands of arrests, the hunger strikes where prisoners almost died, and the refusal to ever back down from continuing direct action.

people really think they're edgy and subversive when their entire social milieu was engineered by Peter Thiel lmfao

Who cares what history thinks? This is idealistic liberal fantasy. Are we passive bystanders content with simply hoping that theoretical future viewers recognize we were morally correct or are we part of the world and therefore have a duty to fight to transform it?

of course I support AI (anti-imperialism)
