I'm judging by what has happened on road schemes near me. It becomes easier to make journeys, so people do them more often.

If Trump is trying to outlaw antifascism, does this mean he accepts his administration is fascist?

All those brave US servicemen who fought, and many died, to save Europe from fascism were terrorists? Who knew?

Trump insults their memory.

I believe this Charlie Kirk called for the Epstein files to be released. How about honouring him by releasing them? Or was that the reason he was shot?

If a script writer had come up with a plot about the president of the USA and a wealthy technocrat scrapping like 2 kids in the playground, they would have been laughed out of town.

We have just been marking 80 years since the defeat of fascism in Europe. We remember all those, European, American, Asian, African, Australasian, that died for our freedom - and now we are giving it all away. The uniformed thugs of ICE in the US are so like the Gestapo.

“If we cannot end now our differences, at least we can help make the world safe for diversity. For, in the final analysis, our most basic common link is that we all inhabit this small planet. We all breathe the same air. We all cherish our children's future. And we are all mortal." - JFK

On this day when we celebrate women in science, the US is trying to cancel the role of Vera Rubin in encouraging their participation.

Can you have philosophy of science? Don't the two words mean the same thing?
