AOC: I don’t care what Elon Musk is doing behind the presidential seal, but in this country we hate Nazis. Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis.

Great analysis.
How privatisation works (and Thames Water is just the latest example).

2. In doing so, it creates a monopoly.

Sound advice.
A pre-emptive block is in order. There's no earthly reason why you need to subject yourself to his cesspit outpourings.

So head over to @nigelfarage-mp.bsky.social and slam that Block button. You'll never see him again.

Won't that be a relief?
