Oh for fuck’s sake. Seriously is there nothing that can be done to stop him ignoring the law? Is he truly immune from evil shit like this that WILL get trans people killed? Goddamn I’m sick of the pure evil that keeps oozing out of every pore of this shit smear.

No further debate—Trump’s DEI policy is clearly racist.

The Pentagon is flagging for removal, historic photos of Black & brown heroes who served, claiming they “promote DEI.”

The military was segregated until 1948. Black people served while facing racism. Where was the DEI? Erasure is the point.

This is shocking. ITV reporting that even those with extreme disabilities in the unfit to work category are likely to lose money under new government plans. Charities have branded the move catastrophic

Labour are nazis when it comes to disabled people. Not hyberbole, actually true.

Come on, Bluesky. Let's spread the word...
A lot of good people need help, but this one is a bit closer to home for me.

One of my best friends back in New Zealand has stage 4 colon cancer and needs help raising money for treatment.

If you could help spread the word, maybe donate, that would be great.

The German election should be a warning. One in five voters backed the far-right.

The UK isn't immune. And the right has their cheerleaders in the media - from GB News to the tabloids.

We need an alternative to take on misinformation, promote an alternative, and debunk the arguments of the right.
The far right are growing – you can help stop them
The right has their cheerleaders in the media. The left needs to counter this.
