“You cannot buy the revolution. You cannot make the revolution. You can only be the revolution. It is in your spirit, or it is nowhere.”

"He [Trump] never admits a mistake — with one notable exception: he has said that during his first term he made the mistake of being too nice."

Half truths, blind spots and congenital denial, Trump's Epstein derangement syndrome.

I live in a taxpayer-funded, self-managed housing co-op [pre-Thatcher]. The challenge is to maintain our properties to the highest possible standard for the lowest possible rent. For our competitors [i.e. not other co-ops] the concern is to maximise profit in return for the lowest possible service.

For the same reason there was incompetence handling Covid19, indifference over the fate of Palestinians, antipathy towards green economics, contempt for 'woke', transpeople and all the rest ... they want us gone, deleted through neglect and replaced by automation and AI.

There's always a quote ... this is from Arendt's book "The Origins of Totalitarianism".

'Re: Colonised Planet 5, Shikasta' by Doris Lessing.

The twist is Emissary Johor, the main protagonist, is a cypher for the reader themselves. Once you get that, it all makes sense.

I'm guessing the authorised response is as follows:

'When Israel no longer require arms we'll recognise Palestine, assuming there's a Palestine left to save', then again one can but hope that they still have a shred of integrity worth saving?

Time for your party to become our party? Party representatives accountable to the communities they're delegated to serve.

First Putin violated Ukraine because it wasn't Russian enough, then Netanyahu violated Gaza because it wasn't Israeli enough and now, not to be outdone, Trump invades Blue America because it isn't Red enough?

Pacifists sabotaging the state's ability to wage genocide isn't terrorism, whatever the law says to the contrary.

Terrorism is legislators defending the state's ability to wage genocide, this is lawlessness contrary to all norms.

Not so much upholding 'law and order' as promoting 'awe and disorder'.

I've now watched it and yep I guessed right. The key is democracy, ensure MPs are constituency not party delegates, and party not constituency representatives.

... and if that's not enough to grasp the underlying mendacity and cruelty of this man, there's his adulation of Trump?

It's never too late to build again. Instead of kicking out the narcissistic tendency ... [those that have outed themselves over Gaza] ... one could simply disbar them from joining?
