Ate too much cheese, so struggled to sleep and instead stayed up thinking about inequality. That's so intensely my personal brand.

Bluesky doesn’t have a central algorithm that’s forced on everybody, and allows users to create their own feeds.
I think that is the *only* ethical model for social media going forward:

Algorithms do widen the divide: Social media feeds shape political polarization
A study shows that the order in which platforms like X display content to their users affects their animosity towards other ideological groups

It's part of the electionification of everything, which is why we as a country are failing to have a proper conversation about our actual problems. It's bad for the left *and* the right.
It's such a bizarre framing. Labour MPs think taking 450k kids out of poverty is putting the country first! That's why they wanted it to happen! It's not because they personally benefit.
Headline on The World at One just now:
"Sir Keir Starmer has denied putting the Labour Party before the country by ending the two-child benefit cap".
Can we please go back to reporting the actual news, not someone's partisan take on it?

That is a huge drop. Huge.
Starmer will now play the 'look-what-we-achieved' politics of this brilliantly, everyone will calm down, sensible immigration policies will emerge, and Farage will disappear.

NEW: Net migration falls sharply to 204,000 in the year to June.
That’s a fall from 649,000 in the year to June 2024. It is a drop of nearly 80% from its 2023 peak.

I'm constantly shocked (but not surprised) by how little we discuss the additional financial burden placed on young people by the Clegg-Cameron student loan regime.

📣New @jrf-uk.bsky.social analysis
Scrapping the 2 child limit alone has reversed the projected decline in living standards by *more than half* for the bottom third of households

🚨 New analysis alert!
Our latest modelling shows that living standards are still set to fall across this Parliament up to November 2029.
However, actions taken at the Budget have made this decline less pronounced *by more than half* for low-income households.

You may need a rizla paper to measure the distance between Labour and Conservatives on certain rights based issues right now, and there are plenty of things to criticise, but this is definitely not a "Tory budget" as I have seen some people claim. Finally ending the two child cap is definitely good.

I am really happy about two child cap, but how it's happened is painful to watch.

It is amazing that Labour took the helm, kicked all the lefties out with brutal efficiency, then just flapped until they self immolated.
I'm not saying that flaming out is inherent when you're a fanatic, and your ideology and reality can't co-exist but that's exactly what I am saying.

Lifting 450,000 out of poverty for £3 billion p.a. looks amazingly good value in comparison to some numbers in the budget. For example, alcohol and tobacco duties raise £20 billion p.a.

You cannot overstate how bad the 2 child policy is for poverty.
I've been in rooms with anti pov campaigners from all over the country and its always their #1 recommendation for tackling poverty.

Such disingenuous nonsense from the Tories - who fully supported the Cass Review last year and are now u-turning on that support.
The Overton window shifts further and further to the right and trans people continue to pay the price.
This is why we shouldn’t give an inch to transphobes.

To tie back to my comparison to other online radicalisation, even if you don't give a shit about trans people, the judiciary becoming increasingly partial on a specific issue should be seen as the canary in the coal mine giving the current direction of travel in this country
Like it was obvious when the Supreme Court randomly decided to rewrite the Equality Act, but I think there's a large amount if journalistic negligence that no one really treats judges as anything other than neutral conduits through which the word of law moves

yes I don't really see how you can go "oh yikes these people have changed their political views incredibly quickly, mostly because of what Very Online people talk about on social media" and also think that people who went from never talking about gender to calling trans women predators are....normal
I don’t like subtweeting people I consider online friends, but there is a subset of people who are very worried about the ongoing radicalisation of our political elite but won’t ever acknowledge the echoes with the radicalisation of their colleagues on trans rights
And few who are sympathetic to us, some who are friendly with me on here, will ever stick their head above the parapet

Don’t want to be too moralistic about this, but it is an active disgrace what people are doing to a profoundly liberational scheme that costs relatively piddling amounts on the basis of a couple of right wing shitposters misrepresenting it on Twitter.
