I spent a decade arguing with antivaxxers on X. Showing them papers. Explaining their errors. Correcting their disinformation.
I've done my bit for "dialogue with people I disagree with".

Putting wheels on the cross to make it easier to carry is probably the most MAGA Evangelical thing ever. All of the victimhood but none of the sacrifice.

Well, @4allout.bsky.social, since you turned off replies you made it difficult to give you what you asked for, but here we go: the authentic, nuanced, balanced and unbiased view here is that the Nazis were shit both morally and in terms of basic competence, and you have the intellect of a shoelace.

What it *really* does, of course, is validate the opportunity for *another referendum*, which - in addition to generating a democratic basis for national orientation - would devastate Reform's platform. Win-win for Lab. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/e...

Trump’s tariff threat must be the final straw for Starmer - time to rejoin the EU
The President’s threat to impose a 10 per cent tariff is another sign that the UK should turn away from Washington and towards its allies in Europe, world affairs editors Sam Kiley writes

Answering the hitherto unconsidered question, what do you get if you cross a Blenheim with a P-38?
The Fokker G.1 (1937) was developed as a bomber interceptor, with secondary roles of ground attack or reconnaissance. 36 aircraft fitted with Bristol Mercury engines and carrying the heavy armament of eight machine guns in the nose were ordered by the Dutch Air Force.

I imagine various European intelligence agencies have obtained the Epstein files. Europe's heads of state should tell Trump that if he makes a move on Greenland, unredacted versions will immediately be released on the web and to major media outlets.
