This, published by the "patriotic" Telegraph, seems to me pretty full-on, unabashed Putin apologia, blaming Europe for Putin's aggression. It is indistinguishable from the set of Kremlin-talking-points, that we have been hearing from his officials and proxies. ~AA

Where are these proud Brexiters' will-of-the-people and sovereignty arguments now? They seem to prefer being the gimp of a foreign autocrat, to accepting the wishes of the majority in their own country. Is this why they wanted to "take back control"? To hand it over? ~AA

Everywhere you look now, people are talking Rejoin EU, Customs Union, Single Market, Erasmus +, etc etc.

Let's demand a real say, and demand our future back!

Or... we can let Putin, Trump and Musk decide our future through their stooge, Farage.

"As far as Donald Trump is concerned, global security is a protection racket and everyone is going to have to pay more."

Stunning interview with Europe security expert, formerly at the State Dept and NATO, Dr Terra.

Clearest explanation of Trump's (very confused) new global manifesto.

So today I found out that my TED talk ‘This is What a Digital Coup Looks Like’ was TED’s most watched talk of the year.

It’s sort of amazing & terrifying. Because this *is* what a digital coup looks like.

I need you to listen to and share this story - of how Trump is preparing to abandon Ukraine in exchange for Russian money for his billionaire friends.

It could be the greatest corruption of American foreign policy in our history. Russia gets Ukraine. Trump's friends get rich.

Most discussions about “misinformation” treat the problem as if people simply don’t have good enough critical-thinking skills. It sounds intuitive, but it’s not entirely accurate. The problem isn’t just individual ignorance, it’s the structure of the information environment people are placed into.

Unpopular opinion: the obsession with whether Nigel Farage is taking Russian money is obscuring us from the far more troubling reality of where he's actually taking money from.

Yes, Russians have used Tether to launder money. So does everyone.

Funding/support from American oligarchs is a FAR more significant threat to British democracy than that from the Kremlin, which has a. a fraction of their cash and b. approximately zero popularity.

These 2,900 individual billionaires could lose 75% of their wealth and still be richer than 4 billion people.

Inequality is eating the whole world alive.
There are now 2,900 billionaires, and they hold $15.8 trillion.

The wealth of the bottom 50% of the global population, over 4 billion people, is estimated at $3.7 trillion.
