The gay kid you bullied into suicide could’ve cured cancer.
The 14 year old dead after a school shooting could’ve cured cancer.
The baby you traumatized by putting it in a cage, could’ve cured cancer.
They had a heartbeat, too.

I do hope everybody realises that this weekend the UK becomes North Korea without the laughs.

Keir Starmer has written about patriotism in a publication owned by billionaire twins who bought their own Channel Island so they don't have to pay any tax in the UK

PM thought about resigning, but hasn't because - WAIT FOR IT - he's too responsible. Says the experience has been "miserable for anyone in gov't".
Do you remember that seminal @MarinaHyde piece about his habit of always presenting himself as the real victim? Still there. ~AA

"The “economic cost” of Brexit, £130 billion, now exceeds what we’ve paid into the EU over 47 years."
RT @AaronBastani
Imagine if Boris Johnson became Tory leader on the pledge of ‘getting Brexit done’ & three months later said britain should re-join the EU.
That’s what @Keir_Starmer is doing with his pledges. We expect children not to lie, so why not politicians? @OwenJones84 is entirely right.

Posing in the Murdoch Times, bragging about getting one over on Corbyn, whilst the Tories get one over on Labour, offering more to help people with their bills than they are. Labour's Rachel Reeves exemplifies how petty & pathetic Team Keith are. #DamoRants #CostOfLivingCrisis

#OtD 1 Jun 1985, British police attacked people visiting Stonehenge in the "Battle of the Beanfield". Policed smashed vehicle windows and dragged people out through the broken glass, and then beat them. You can read more here: https://libcom.org/history/1985-battle-beanfield

Happy Fuck Rainbow Capitalism
RT @RichardBurgon
Rishi Sunak last week handed billions more in subsidies to wealthy oil firms.
That funding could have insulated 2 MILLION homes - saving each household £342 per year.
We're in a cost-of-living and a climate emergency. Not a single penny should be going to these companies.
“Reformer”? Status quo spear carrier who carried on the pretend to aspire but do nothing politics of Obama while throwing billions at his oligarch owners.

Hard to argue with. Biden will likely go down as the American Gorbachev: a well-meaning but inept reformer who couldn't prevent his country from being overwhelmed by a revolution into a kleptocratic mafia state https://twitter.com/waltshaub/status/1530940261785915393

child abuse, hate towards sámi, swedish colonialism, banned languages
When I was a kid, my best friend changed his last name. His dad had earlier changed his first name.
The dad was part of a minority in the north of sweden speaking Meänkieli. When the dad went to school, he was abused by his teachers for speaking his language.
The shame took such deep roots that he changed his names, because they sounded too much like of the Torne valley, the area he was born in.
It's extremely common in Sweden to be "in support" of american natives. It is very uncommon to speak of our oppression of the Sámi, and other groups. The Sámi lands, Sápmi, cover the north of Sweden, Norway, Finland and part of Russia. Their language and culture has been treated very much the same as Torne and Meänkieli, and still face a lot of oppression.
swedish people will call themselves anti-racist and point fingers abroad. We do not speak of what's happening inside our own borders.

How can you make amends when you haven’t done anything wrong? 🤔
