London cat butler. I try to be a good human. Very woke. Climate change is real and refugees are welcome. Rather fond of due process. Democrat (US) and Green (UK). Researches authoritarian practices and writes a bit of SciFi on the side.

I just don’t see how we can pretend even for a moment that anything involving our federal government is remotely normal when the president is covering up his involvement in a child sex trafficking ring. Like, what are we doing here

A fascinating read, mainly for exposing how utterly deluded most Reform supporters are, thinking they care about the environment or workers' rights.
Also many Reform supporters don't seem to understand that the party despises them.

To be effective, protest must be noisy, obstructive, annoying. No longer is this allowed. Now the last attribute of effective dissent – persistence – is also to be banned. But the moment protest ceases to be effective is the moment democracy dies. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...
Here’s what you need to know about Starmer’s illiberal protest curbs: they would have killed the Labour party at birth | George Monbiot
