@ifbookspod.bsky.social so glad to see the title "Sapiens" in my podcast feed this morning. The only time I've been glad to see that word, post Harari writing it... Wanted this for ages. The quintessential If Books... book imo. Can't wait to listen!

But *many* people who paid attention to who these people are & their well documented political histories easily predicted they would be exactly like this. They were dismissed as derranged conspiracists at the time. Are they being listened to now? Lol No. They're still being aggressively ignored

Indeed: everything would be expensive as fuck; infrastructure would be falling apart with no plan to fix it; politics would be dumb, racist, inflammatory and destructive; Ukraine would’ve got fucked over into ceding territory and Britain might now be deeply complicit in the worst kind of war crimes.

The culprit Starmer blames for the lack of community is the figure of the immigrant, who refuses to conform to the host nations cultural and behavioural expectations, if anything this argument is a *direct repudiation* of Putnams argument in Bowling Alone.

This is an excellent article - I have some additional thoughts from a feminist perspective on the consequences of this Supreme Court judgment, rather than just my legal ones:

Thread 🧵
The UK Supreme Court’s transphobic ruling on the definition of woman last week is a defeat for all women—even, ultimately, the self-described feminists celebrating it, and the women who will gain in the short term from their alliance with the carceral state.

my latest for @thenation.com
The UK's Anti-Trans Ruling Is a Defeat for All Women
Even the self-described feminists celebrating the Supreme Court's attempt to banish trans people from womanhood will pay a heavy price.

I'm the guest on the latest Pro Revolution Soccer podcast with Juliet Jacques and Tom Williams. We talked about Saudi Arabia's victory in the Carabao Cup, and how debates about 'identity politics' relate to football as well as the left.

The law says that that Britain cannot export arms to a state where there is a clear risk that they might be used in serious violation of international law.

Not certain proof that they have been used in that way. Just the clear risk that they might.
Itamar Ben Gvir:

"Annihilate, smash, eradicate, erase, crush, shatter, burn, be cruel, punish, ruin, crush. Annihilate!"

This is the genocidal voice of the Israeli government.

Can't believe it, lads. Look who I just saw spouting anti-trans rhetoric on a right-wing podcast. That's right. It's the bloke from the back of the Megabus.

Also very plausible (and consistent with this explanation) that he did the whole thing as an edgy dare. God, he's such a prick.

Here's how the mind of a conspiracy theorist works: Graham Linehan once noticed that the people criticising him appeared to be quite eloquent. But that would mean they were intelligent, and that couldn't be!? So, he came up with the theory that they were using "Grammarly" to appear intelligent. 1/

I wish this was the level of discussion. I say this as someone not Jewish but generally wary of how anti-Zionism as a political stance has obscured over so many nuances and makes you immediate bedfellows with some right prats.
This is why I'm not interested if someone is a Zionist, non or anti. Do they support Apartheid? Do they deny the genocidal nature of the current war? Do they deny the Nakba? Do they recognise and support the racist constitutional nature of Israel (eg Nation State law)? These questions interest me.
