@snig.bsky.social Probably just a huge coincidence, that two people are now wanted in connection of a racially aggravated assault on someone with Pepper spray, at a time we see a lot of anonymous accounts advocating for Pepper spray as a self defence (It's illegal)!

Instagram has become a marketplace for neo-Nazis. Influencers are using the platform’s massive reach to glorify Hitler, deny the Holocaust, and sell merchandise. Their content, drenched in antisemitism, misogyny, and racism, reaches millions daily. Meta knows it — but refuses to act.

Good thread analysing a tweet from a Spectator writer that is genuinely weird in just how online-far-right it is coded.

Like, almost every word in it.
Fascinating to break this down and understand what stage of brainworms the Spectatorati are at now.

The CURRENT sitting MP for Clacton earns £511,000 as a presenter for GB News and took £281,000 as a brand ambassador for Direct Bullion.

So maybe sit this one out, you rancid herring.

SCOTUS has rejected Kim Davis' bid to overturn the 2015 ruling in Obergefell v Hodges legalizing same-sex marriage in the USA. This ruling was 5-4, with retired conservative Justice Anthony Kennedy joined by four liberal justices. Predicably, Clarence Thomas, John Roberts & Samuel Alito dissented.
US Supreme Court rejects bid to overturn same-sex marriage right
The U.S. Supreme Court rejected on Monday a bid by a former Kentucky county official to overturn its landmark 2015 ruling legalizing same-sex marriage nationwide, as the justices steered clear of the contentious case some 3-1/2 years after its conservative majority reversed abortion rights.

See also Farage - both of them monsters created by the BBC, both ready to turn on their creator. Seems very zeitgeisty, what with the Frankenstein movie doing the rounds.

A SINGLE migrant, sent to France on the one in one out agreement returns to the UK and it merits a mention on the 14:30 news on Radio 6 Music? When it comes to immigration and migrants there is no sense of proportion. How is this newsworthy?

Death row meal?

Could do a lot worse than some re-warmed five spice poached local chicken, lovely, fragrant Thai hom mali rice, some steamed tat soi bitter greens & a quick sauce of white soy & Chinkiang vinegar. Finest kind.

Did it again earlier this year: salutethepig.com/death-row-me...
