Raoul Vaneigem—Situationist, author, and lifelong aspiring revolutionary—has passed away at the age of 92. "Let ten people meet who are resolved on the lightning of violence rather than the long agony of survival; from this moment, despair ends and tactics begin." —The Revolution of Everyday Life

The Epstein files feels like Roberto Bolaño’s most brutal masterpiece, 2666, in which he correctly read the secrets of the world in the thinly fictionalized, unrelenting and unsolved femicides on the Mexican border. It is the hidden fulcrum of evil, of systemic misogyny, on which our planet turns.

Yes it's hypocrisy, but a reminder that for ministers, rights are neither fundamental nor universal, they're treated as weapons used strategically against opponents. In any event, governments and the state don't protect people's rights to protest - people do though, by turning up and exercising them

It's genuinely insane that Ann Widdecombe (a socially conservative religious zealot) sensibly opposed this idea because she opposes trans women being raped. Labour MP Jonathon Pinder called her 'woke'. For opposing rape.

reform don't think trans women should be put in men's prisons bcos we're at high risk of rape. labour changed the rules almost immediately after the election so that we are placed in men's prisons. other than that i think their policies are identical.
