Two successive governments laid themselves open to war crimes charges, beshitted their reputations and radicalised much of the populace against them because the American government demanded we assist this man’s atrocities.

Lol, no Britain isnt "prepared for war" because a) you have not given the people a serious enough reason to want to throw themselves in the meat grinder for "britain", and b) this country's defense and investment is cartoonishly obsessed with fancy toys and pretending it's a "world power" still

In Britain, nothing matters unless it’s allowed to matter by like eight newspapers and three tv channels and maybe a couple of glorified blogs for a horrible treat

Remember: the liberal moderates kicked and screamed and shat their pants and wrecked and blew everything up so that they could be The Grown Ups In Charge, and this is what they do with it. Cowering away from confrontation with street fascists for fear of the press. Contemptible scum.

the UK press attacked jason arday because it is deeply racist & so the idea of a black intellectual is abhorrent to them. they enjoy that they have killed him, they will be celebrating in private even as they offer tepid excuses in public. they're all nazi freaks and should be treated as such

Like, yes, this cannot be stressed enough. People's instincts are to support black people against the British press because they're demonic racist liars. You could see their absolute fucking glee that, for once, they had accidentally stumbled onto a real case of fraud.

Universities are riddled with old white guys who have sexually assaulted their students, but still get a paycheck while not teaching. You won't hear about that.

This fella lost his job for being a cunt and racist and then got his revenge on Cambridge by socially murdering a man for plagiarism and being a confabulator. He chose the softest target possible and everyone on Fleet Street played along.

Potentially for the last time, please enjoy the best picture of Keir Starmer
The famous picture of Keir Starmer looming outside of a children's bathroom as two children wash their hands. Keir Starmer looks as if he's been photoshopped in from another picture where he's skulking in the bushes outside of his ex wife's place.

Here's the thing that should make everyone sit up and ask what the fuck is going on (it won't but still). How is it, say, the Greens can have a grave racism problem but the modern equivalent to the BNP is good actually? There's nothing subtle here, we just let racists act as authorities on racism.

I will hammer this point. It took five years for a High Court to determine exactly what I and dozens of others said was happening: this was a manufactured moral panic, based on flimsy (and, as it turns out, nonexistent!) evidence, to remove harassment policies protecting trans professors/students

Thinking of how both Indochina and Iran are rich, diverse regions which exist as geographic, cultural and economic bridges between the lands and peoples surrounding them, and how two generations of US leadership believed they could bury their dreams of self-determination under a deluge of bombs.

just saying: it's possible that "I'm gonna dramatically constrict my state capacity while plotting dramatic imperial expansion, and expanding my set of internal enemies while alienating most of my foreign allies" is the beginning of a world-historical masterstroke. but also possible that it isn't

The absolutely disgusting rot at the heart of British media summed up in a single headline. A wretched clique of pathetic, racist, servile dogs.
Two Israeli soldiers killed as latest attacks in
Lebanon leave nearly 400 dead
Israel has been carrying out a military operation in southern Lebanon for more than a week, with three airstrikes hitting Sir El Gharbiyeh village on Sunday.

This one Dril tweet in December 2023 was a more accurate depiction of actual events than anything you’d have got off newsstands, from broadcast media or out of the mouths of politicians. It hasn’t got much better since.
