Ukip have submitted a new logo and slogan to the Electoral Commission, swapping the £ pound sterling symbol for a cross, that looks very much like it is modelled on the Iron Cross used by Prussia & Germany 1871-1918 and Hitler's Nazi regime from 1933-45

What the FSU misses (purposely) here is that X is the one "creating the material"

The images are being generated by xAI's Grok.

The reason that such actions aren't considered for Meta and OpenAI is that they take action to prevent these uses.

As expected, Twitter is chock full of antisemitic conspiracy theories claiming Jews and/or Israel are behind the attack in Venezuela.

This is just the new reality. Something we used to see mainly on 4chan is now everywhere.

From conspiracy theories to a totalizing ideology.

I don’t mean to sound extreme, but I don’t think we should have torture camps for people with criminal records either.

Excessive force. PERIOD!

They called them “violent mobs,” but the violence came from the guys with badges and body armor.

U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio insisted “no one has died” as a result of U.S. foreign aid cuts. In Myanmar, the grieving father of a 2-year-old boy who died after their food rations were cut calls such claims a lie.

One of the first things you learn about trans competent primary care is how many of us routinely develop PVD, UTIs, and kidney stones from avoiding or not having access to bathrooms. As a fun bonus, the disinfo machine then uses this high prevalence to make mendacious claims about HRT.
If you cannot go to the bathroom at work, you cannot go to work. If you cannot go to the bathroom at school, you cannot go to school. This effectively bans transgender people from a broad swath of public life in the UK
🚨 BREAKING | Labour is set to impose a sweeping ban on trans people using any "single-sex space".

In EHRC guidance that Labour is set to approve, trans people will be barred from accessing toilets, gyms and changing rooms that match their gender.

I really don't think there is anything to the Epstein files conspiracy, but by their incompetence the Trump admin sure is doing a great job making it look suspicious.

Do people really believe it or are they just jumping on board to encourage the mess?

If you were too young in 2003 here is what Bush told the American people:

1) The Iraq War won’t cost a lot of money
3) We won’t need a lot of troops
4) We’ll bring peace and freedom to Iraq
5) We’ll find WMDs
6) We’ll be welcomed as liberators
7) It will be easy
8) It won’t take long

All lies.
