It ought to be blindingly obvious by now, but when social democratic parties adopt rw policies they don't beat the right, they strengthen them. This failure has been going n in Europe for decades, hence the rise of the right.

(government minister reading a report on the thousandth clinical drug trial of a pill that eliminates poverty, with a 100% success rate, that generates 10 times the value it costs to produce & makes government ministers public heroes) I don't understand, so the poor are made to suffer how, exactly?
There has literally never been a universal basic income trial program that didn't deliver real and measurable results above and beyond any other form of social welfare, and every time another concludes with the same findings the powers that be go "interesting! Anyway," and pretend it wouldn't work.

You'll see voters who don't want to see another anti-rights, anti-marginalised groups party in power, vote for someone else, someone who won't spend their entire time punching down. Nobody "owes" Labour their vote, and it isn't people not supporting them who are the issue. 4/

This week, I withdrew from a speaking engagement at a public university because they sent me a list of prohibited “words & concepts.” I will not humor this censorship. It does a disservice to the stories I’m discussing & the audience, who deserve unfettered access to information & conversation.

It’s fun to think about the surgeon who will botch your surgery 20 years from now and what he’s doing at this moment. He just ran all his homework through ChatGPT. He just read that article about vaccines and autism at the CDC website. He just watched an Instagram video about the moon landing hoax.

i hate repeating myself but it's worth noting that the reactionary right doesn't actually value hotness in women. what they value is submission to male power, regardless of how it looks. this is why they are all-in on grotesque plastic surgeries
