The longer I look at this particular E~L~O~N tweet the more nauseous I feel.
  • Think it is a reference to the current right wing hysteria, Haitian immigrants eating pets in Ohio.

    It is entirely unverified, but it has spread on twitter like wildfire and is being boosted by establishment republicans saying that Kamala is going to let in hordes of people who will eat your pets.

  • "Democracy" in France, Prime Minister from the losers of the election 🤡
  • Macron aiming to have RN in government to prove that they are bad in order to boost his chances for presidential reelection. Ended up having to cooperate in supporting a tiny right wing party along with RN meaning that his party will be equally blamed. RN can just grandstand in parliament and have the power to block legislation while being politically rehabilitated.

    Masterful gambit Mr Macron.

    "Why don't the palestinians simply lift themselves up by their bootstraps?"
  • I hear some Palestinians became doctors, which seems like a step up from a dentist.

    Sure would be a shame if someone was to blow up and destroy almost all hospitals and torturing you in order to extract false confessions to justify bombing more hospitals killing more patients and doctors whilst you’re desperately trying to keep the children they mutilated alive. Not to mention that these hypothetical people also have blown up every university around. But surely that wouldn’t happen to someone who is as high up as a doctor, the people who lost the war deserved it as they were simply bad/undeserving people who farmed dirt and couldn’t grasp the dizzying heights of worthiness that is being a dentist.

    Nordic splaining
  • I remember when they started the pirate parties (2006 in Sweden) and as a weird incredibly online guy I could spot the wrong kind of weird incredibly online guy and was never on board with their stuff.

    Never voted for any party other than the left party. The greens seemed like unserious libs (vindicated there) and the succdems are just a strictly worse version of the left party in every way.

    "Watching AOC evolution on the aspect of having ideals vs being a sellout has been so relatable!!"
  • Pragmatism is providing cover for a sham ceasefire negotiation that she knew damn well was bullshit to allieviate any pressure on Harris to change course.

    The dems have steadily been lurching right along with the republicans. They ratified almost every disastrous idea that Trump did, such as moving the embassy to Jerusalem, the border wall and dropping the Iran nuclear deal entirely, and have gone further calling him a coward for not attacking Iran. Soon we will have the harm reduction and pragmatism be about only conducting 2 genocides instead of 3. You don't have to be good, you just have to be slightly less bad.

  • Labour: Listen, we had to kill elders because of the economy
  • They taxed public schools (these are private schools, England is weird) raising tuition while also slashing funding for state schools. They are also banning smoking in pub gardens.

    It isn’t good, but I don’t think the Tories would have done either of these. If they had reinvested the extra tax revenue into state schools that would have been good, but they are probably going to spend it on border security or bailing out private companies that they’ve sold out public utilities to.

  • Conservation irl
  • I think that the joke is that European honey bees are used as a universal pollinator in half-assed greenwashing schemes this outcompeting native pollinators. Conservationists want to save all the other pollinators.

    The Haditha Massacre - Here's what the US was doing in Iraq
  • There seems to be a kind of reveling in the cruelty in Israel that most of the US lacks. They are currently actively making the guy who participated in and endorsed rape of Palestinians into a TV-personality.

    I don’t think they are far beyond the US though, if the US was in the ME they’d also revel in it, but as it is the distance makes it easier to ignore.

  • Sir Der Sturmer planning to make a speech on Tuesday where he blames the recent race riots on genuine concerns that society was left broken and a lack of prison places.

    ukkk

    I’m sure that will solve it. Can’t see this as anything other than as a bullhorn loud dog whistle that it is time to crack down on minorities. Asbo back with a vengeance.
