The squandered opportunity is absolutely incalculable. A historic, unforgivable betrayal, that will directly grandfather in forces of monstrous fascism. There is no moral distinction between fascists themselves, and the handmaidens of fascism. Labour delenda est.

"They're not misunderstanding the film; they're co-opting a message"
Screencap from the interview linked in the quoted post

Marlow Stern (the interviewer):  You have one of the most renowned replies in Twitter history. Elon Musk tweeted out, “Take the red pill,” then Ivanka Trump enthusiastically wrote, “Taken!” to him, and then you replied, “Fuck both of you.” I’m curious how you feel about the co-opting of “The Matrix” by those on the right who don’t really seem to understand its messaging.

Lilly Wachowski: I mean, I can’t sit in a room and explain the movie to every single person who watches it. Even if I did sit in a room with Elon Musk and Ivanka Trump — yikes — it doesn’t matter. They’re not misunderstanding the film; they’re co-opting a message. And that’s what fascists do: They co-opt the messages of progressives and use it to their benefit to confuse and obfuscate what is going on and the intention of their ideology. They do it with everything. They do it with Martin Luther King Jr. Look at how they’ve changed the idea of what antisemitism is.

If a lEgiTiMaTe dEbATe aBOut iMMigRaTioN leads to people turning up with pitchforks to demand credentials from every group of young non-white men arriving in town, you’d think even Labour MPs would start asking themselves if it’s really a legitimate debate
Amanda Martin, Labour MP for Portsmouth North, called the hotel incident "deeply concerning".
She said: "It's completely unacceptable that misinformation has led to young cricketers visiting our city being wrongly targeted and mistaken for people seeking asylum.
"It's also wrong that people who work in the hotels had to deal with this.
"Those who arrived in Portsmouth on Sunday were transported outside of Hampshire for processing.
"There is a legitimate debate to be had about immigration, but it must be based on facts not misinformation or rumour."
The BBC understands the England and Wales Cricket Board has checked on wellbeing of the Pakistani under-19s team, and is reviewing security arrangements for the remainder of their tour.

Sarah Ditum is a truly horrible person. Jason Arday is DEAD. You don’t need to keep mocking him and hounding him, he is gone. They can’t even leave him alone in death. Has the internet really dissolved everyone’s humanity this much? Genuinely upsetting. What’s wrong with people?
Screenshot from her awful Substack reading ‘And Arday was a perfect silly season story. It was
- and I am sorry to say this now that Arday is dead, but it is true — very funny. There was a childish brazenness to his exaggerations and inventions. Running 600 miles in six days, and 30 marathons in 35 days (some with a broken leg): obviously ridiculous. When The Guardian's Lanre Bakare investigated some of Arday's more baroque claims of harassment and found they didn't stand up, Arday's response was hilarious:
"To be honest with you, I thought you'd just believe me." This was a misfortune for Arday too.
If he had been less amusing, he'd have attracted less attention.

What happened to Jason Arday is the nature of the British elite laid bare. Some of the most fundamentally unworthy of life people on this planet. It wasn't that he was a charlatan, as they adore their charlatans, it was that he was a black charlatan who didn't know his place.

an open letter to "Global Tetrahedron" I know you didn't mean to close that job listing. I know it was an accident. I will simply apply for the social media job on the social media website thank you for your consideration
to representatives of the organization which calls itself "Global Tetrahedron",

you think that I am writing to express interest in the position of Social Media Lead at InfoWars. and you are correct. because you are intelligent. and insightful. a fellow seeker of Truth. you would not be in this position if you were not. that is why I believe that you can be trusted. which is why I tell you this: I come to you with ulterior motives. I come to you, because I have seen *The Punchline*, and I need you to see it too. but first, *The Setup*: you believe that you have taken over a radio show. perhaps a "media empire". but no. you have, perhaps unwittingly, taken on the mantle of a major arms dealer. a profiteer of The Gender War, which has increasingly been boiling over into the lives of even innocent Gender Civilians. maybe you've felt it. but a brief on the state of The Gender War is beyond the scope of this letter. I am here to sell myself as the correct Gender Warrior to lead this joke that you are telling to *The Punchline*. but first, *The Complication*: you are no doubt also shrewd in matters of business. and, seeing that you have, perhaps inadvertently, purchased a weapons factory, you now have the problem of turning that investment into an viable asset for The Tetrahedron. you have probably lost sleep over the question of how to make love pay the bills as well as hate used to. and I am here to provide the answer. I come to you not as a jaded Social Media Manager, here to "optimize engagement". you have engagement. instead, I come to you as a respected veteran of The Gender War, suggesting that the best way to make use of an enemy weapons factory, when there is A War For Your Mind/Junk going on, is to continue selling weapons. which brings us to *The Punchline*: Global Tetrahedron must also take over the supplement side of the InfoWars business, and use it to sell safe and affordable HRT. I am being entirely serious. and you know that's what makes it funny. imagine…
