If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

On the one hand, daftness. On the other, another poll which underlines how Reform voters are outliers - and current Tory VIs are at least as close and sometimes closer to LD/Lab/Green VIs
With Maurice Glasman and Dominic Lawson calling for the return of the stocks, we find most Britons opposed - although Reform voters are divided
All Britons: 21% support / 72% oppose
Lib Dem: 12% / 85%
Labour: 12% / 83%
Green: 13% / 82%
Con: 28% / 64%
Reform: 43% / 48%

It’s obviously pissing in the wind to point it out, but I’m not sure how this gets fixed unless people stop using TikTok, which is the same as saying there’s no way of fixing it.
The minute we gave up control of who we see on our feeds to big, amoral companies, this was inevitable.

This person is one hundred percent correct and it’s scary af. We will never “media literacy” our way out of this as a society. We are about to reap the whirlwind when it comes to misinformation, disinformation, and informational warfare.

as for wages, we see reasonably rapid wage growth among recent arrivals (as migrants progress, and low-earning students return home).

Get ready for fracking, Reform UK tells energy firms
The party is serious about going after shale gas - but critics argue it's too difficult and costly.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social 2/2 lots of other examples re canine v human behaviour but if the love incorporates full understanding (as love should) of the other species then all is good, surely.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social re dogs- I see no problem with people loving their dogs as much as children esp silly if ‘childfree’. SO LONG AS they love them as dogs- we are primates. Dogs aren’t. Primates like to hug and carry young. Dogs don’t. Know dog body language and what they need as dogs not humans

One of the things that enrages me about Labour’s approach is the reality that immigration hysteria is *entirely manufactured*
Farage has used it to flog every con and it’s been in the tabloids, daily, for ten years. To the point that now even some Labour voters defend it.
It’s fucking MADE UP.
