Bizarre still are the self-professed anti-fascists who will proudly shout (and 'tweet') all day long about how anti-facist they are while still continuing to drive engagement (and ultimately money) to Musk's fash (and now paedo) bar.
"But, but...we're anti-facist, though."

Good Louise Haigh and others leave X after the Grok AI nudes nightmare, calling on the gov to do the same, but it's bizarre that it's taken so long. For the average punter the site became unusable over a year ago. Did gov miss this because it doesn't 'use' the site, just passively broadcasts?

Couldn't agree more. I understand that people are just venting, but it is indeed unedifying (and just a wee bit tiresome).
I really dislike Bluesky when it descends into HOW WRONG IS THIS BLOKE ABOUT SOMETHING I’M POWERLESS TO CHANGE

Having had a day to think through everything about El-Fattah, here's where I stand. Yes, it's possible to believe all of these things at once! In fact, it really shouldn't be that hard.

We’re off to light the Menorah. We, a non-Jewish family, do that every year in memory and in place of our forebears whose lives were cut short by antisemitism. Today we feel again exactly how that could happen. Love to those Jewish families who suffered today. 🕎

This. Absolutely this.
It won't happen, mind. They're too obscenely rich to allow themselves to experience consequences. One can dream, though.

Yet another example of a frontline politician failing to observe the law of unintended consequences.
Listening to David Lammy on @BBCr4today attempting to justify abolishing trial by jury, it is increasingly and terrifyingly clear that he simply does not understand the issues.

Apparently, the only thing these people are more desperate to see cut than the interest rate is the age of consent.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

It's a bit tinfoil-under-the-hat conspiracy theory-ish here at Bluesky this morning. Hopefully it's not catching - I came here to get away from that kind of thing and be among rational social media users.
