i think this was an interesting conversation, kind liberals cont to make optics arguments that center the feelings of ppl w sympathies to the state that has conducted industrial mass slaughter & maintains an apartheid. the purpose of holocaust scholarship is to never let it happen again. its to be used as a comparison to stop it from happening now. that's why i do not shy away from making the comparison as a warning.
@SoundDobad I know this may sound petty, but I can’t stand it when people put photoshop a meth pipe in my mouth. A crack pipe doesn’t have that little bowl at the end. This is why we can’t trust AI. Please make the appropriate edit. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
It would take far more than a month to honor the contributions of queer and transgender New Yorkers.
From the Cercle Hermaphroditos in 1895, the first trans advocacy group in the United States, to the drag balls of the Harlem Renaissance, to the Stonewall uprising, to the Lesbian Herstory Archives, to ACT UP!, founded in 1987 as queer people fought for their lives while the Reagan administration looked away, New York City's history has long been shaped by queer and trans New Yorkers.
To all our queer and trans neighbors: you deserve a City where you can afford to live safely, openly, and joyfully.
Happy Pride, New York City.
It's an honor to have made Israel's enemies list. I'm very proud to have fought against their genocide.
The mighty United Kingdom is afraid of speech that shows you who's responsible for those war crimes. But no amount of censorship will get us to stop telling the truth.
Banning Cenk Uyghur and Hasan Piker from entering the UK is an absurd and cowardly decision from an increasingly authoritarian government.
Let us call this what it is: an attack on the freedom to criticise Israel, as well as the UK government’s own complicity in genocide.
I’ve been banned from the UK. I tried to get on a flight to London to attend SXSW London and give a speech at Oxford. I’ve been banned for criticizing Israel. Are we free anymore? This is oppression of Western citizens by our own governments on behalf of a different country!
I was supposed to chair the @hasanthehun discussion at SXSW this week, who's been banned from entering the UK by Shabana Mahmood. First of all, @sxsw must facilitate a way for Hasan and Cenk to contribute remotely, as a bare minimum refusal to comply with government censorship.
Britain at the height of its power and prestige was home to Karl Marx and Giuseppe Mazzini. It was a refuge for Alexander Herzen and Victor Hugo.
Now, in 2026, it wont allow American YouTubers & streamers to enter because they criticised Israel. 🥀
This is a really grim decision alongside Cenk.
People often talk about dangerous road we'd go down under a Reform government - this is another clear warning we're down there already.
A Labour government doing everything possible to silence criticism of the Israeli Government.
ironic because a year ago, i delivered a speech at oxford union about the dangers of conflating judaism and zionism & how this foments antisemitism. since then the government has arrested pensioners for protesting against israel and let iof war criminals roam free!
In an era of multiparty politics - first past the post is utterly broken.
It is time for Proportional Representation.
The climate crisis & our inequality crisis cannot wait for another general election.
Failing to fix our democracy immediately will betray future generations.
So, I have a friend who works at the BBC.
Yesterday, they told me the Tony Blair Institute basically selected the entire panel for @bbcquestiontime — hence why there was no balance and it was essentially dangerous big tech propaganda. Loads of staff pissed off, but silenced.
Old housemates, old school friends, family members, - they even asked a local launderette for an itinerary of what I've had washed!
All this from billionaire owned media because they don't want a party to continue growing that challenges power & wealth.

Peak Labour. Disgraced former MP who resigned from the cabinet following an expenses scandal, and was subsequently given a life peerage by Keir Starmer, promotes a privatised water company.
Love and solidarity to my brilliant colleague Carla - I'm really proud that she is being so open about this.
The huge success the Green Party is seeing now wouldn't be possible without her years of hard work - we're standing on the shoulders of giants 💚
What did Ben Gvir do that was so wrong? I thought it was OK for him to mock blindfolded prisoners who are lying or kneeling in the floor. I’ve seen film of him doing it before.
