James Hanover @jameshanover.bsky.social · 04/06/2026I wonder if it’s Bluesky, or more indicative of how much the public realm - Trump/Farage/now Hanson - has plateaued (cratered). Generally demoralising, and that perhaps shows itself in this channel, too? 030

This class redirects our rage at scapegoats. To resist its lies is to resist its power. 14770052488

In times when nations are looking for ways to build soft power, it’s quite shocking to see the enemies within seek, so actively, to undermine it. 141

The media types keep talking about the gov now having an opportunity to take risks, but that’s all about the games they want to witness, commentate on & ultimately critique.
