If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

Vital piece of investigative reporting from Sky. They've uncovered the X algorithm which feeds users extremist right wing material from the moment they join the site. It is a far-right radicalisation engine, by design.

a couple of hours before my keynote, I went through an intense negotiation with the organisers (for over a hour) where we went through my slides and had to remove anything that mentions 'Palestine' 'Israel' and replace 'genocide' with 'war crimes'

"There is nothing fair about being born into chaos. And there is nothing just about a society that blames individuals for what they’ve had to survive. Structural disadvantage isn't a moral failing, yet we continue to moralise poverty, addiction, homelessness, and mental health challenges."
Some of us are born with the safety net of privilege, others with the trapdoor of poverty
Justice requires us to ask not who has failed, but who has been failed. We owe each other better than this broken society

Happy St George' Day!
![Cartoon for St George's day by Stephen Collins for the guardian. Script as follows:
Scene is outside a cave, ST GEORGE in armour etc is confronting the DRAGON while the CAPTURED PRINCESS looks on.
DRAGON:
So let me get this straight.
DRAGON:
You’re hoping to reinforce ‘helpless princess’ tropes…
DRAGON:
By publicly stabbing an *endangered animal* to death with a *sword*…
DRAGON:
So you can force a whole Syrian village to convert to Christianity….
DRAGON:
And become a nationalist icon for a colonial state…
DRAGON:
Through the cultural appropriation of ancient medieval dragon myths.
DRAGON:
You’ve not been *online* very long, have you?
GEORGE:
I have been quite surprised by the comments.
GEORGE’S SOCIAL MEDIA ASSISTANT [who is filming this encounter on an iPhone]:
I told you it’s problematic, George.
DRAGON:
Problematic? It’s a *bin fire*!
DRAGON:
OK. Here’s how you turn this round -
CUT TO a YoutTube post called ‘MY JOURNEY (An apology)’. GEORGE is crying to camera, Dragon in background.
GEORGE:
I am *so sorry* guys…](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:4m3we4apbjayclzcnhwe3pfp/bafkreihzpskp6p4u4ejrjhmp4tdye2rzg75vmbyxbn45o5g4xk7dpairge@jpeg)

My myth-busting piece for The Guardian today arguing that it is factually inaccurate & totally, utterly wrong to say that undocumented people are ‘illegal’ & are automatically ‘criminals’.

This is some straight up Margaret Atwood shit here. United States of Dystopia.
Rumeysa Ozturk, a PhD student at Tufts University, was detained March 25 by Department of Homeland Security agents in masks and plainclothes.
“We should all be horrified at the way DHS spirited away Rumeysa in broad daylight,” Mahsa Khanbabai, Ozturk’s lawyer, said. wapo.st/3QPfoiA
