If you read or see something outrageous on ‘social’ media it’s important to try to stymie the emotional response. Consider who wanted you to feel that way and why.
Is it a deliberate, dishonest, provocation or something you should actually be emotive about?
Male circumcision for non-medical reasons on minors who have not consented is genital mutilation and it should be outlawed. Religious or cultural views are no legitimate basis for female genital mutilation, so why would they be for male genital mutilation? https://t.co/d2cFIXD7qN
Imagine you lived in Nazi Germany and there was an organisation that tried to stop Hitler by smashing an arms factory up and splashing red paint around ? Don’t you think they would have been looked upon as being brave and heroic? Can you imagine anyone calling that organisation a terrorist organisation? Can you imagine anyone describing those who committed that criminal damage, terrorists ? Maybe Starmer and Starmer’s hand picked judges perhaps?
So now today, we have the Filton 4 who will be sentenced this Friday June 12 th. And Yes, they were found guilty of criminal damage but are now threatened with the sentence being linked to terrorism which would make it a much longer and more serious sentence. The government is testing the waters, turning the law upside down and framing the peace activist as terrorists and those who profit from genocide, as victims. Don’t let them get away with it.
Join us Friday to oppose this ludicrous and unjust “terrorist link” sentencing that Judge Johnson is reportedly planning to use against the Filton 4. Seriously, If they get away with sentencing them as terrorists it means they will be able to do it to anyone, any time, anywhere , for anything. Please, if you like the post, please share it . See you Friday June 12 at 5.30 Victoria monument Derby square outside the courts.
All the news outlets will now report a “wave of missiles”, “a barrage of rockets”, and “bombardment” because Israel is being struck.
The sanitising language of “targeted attacks”, “military action”, and “operations” will suddenly disappear.
I call BS.
The facts are these:
Henry Nowak told officers he'd been stabbed. He told them he couldn't breathe. An officer replied, “I don't think you have, mate”. They dragged him along the ground and handcuffed him. He died before anyone called an ambulance.
No DEI course teaches you to ignore a dying man. Officers have a duty to assess injured persons, call for medical assistance, and not take one party's word as gospel. They failed on all three.
This is incompetence repackaged as ideological victimhood. “DEI made us feel certain ways” shifts anger from officers who let a teenager die onto a culture-war target. That's their defence strategy.
Henry told them he was dying. They didn't listen. They didn't follow protocol. That's a conduct and skill problem, not a DEI problem.
Need to know the logic of the UK gov banning Hasan Piker from entering simply for speaking out against Israel yet THOUSANDS of IDF soldiers have been allowed entry after a murderous stint in Gaza, they can literally return to the UK and work in schools if they want to
🏃♂️ I've gamified my own run so I can race my own ghost with the Meta Ray-Ban Display.
I built a web app for the glasses, loaded a previous GPX from Strava, and dropped game mechanics on top.
Pick up coins when you keep pace, sprint zones reward extra points if you push, and a mini leaderboard on the lens shows how you're tracking against your past self in real time.
Best part: it actually works. Seeing your ghost 20 m ahead is a way stronger nudge than any number on a watch. 😅
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!
This is a last ditch effort to FORCE people to give in their ID to use ANY social media apps.
A child’s safety shouldn’t be used as a Trojan horse for mass surveillance.
@DoubleDownNews@macmillan_moira That countries around the world stay silent as their citizens are brutalised like this is an outrage that will never be forgotten. Nor forgiven. Shame on every single one of them.
Why would the disclosure of emails between the Speaker of the House of Commons and a foreign power accused of genocide be prejudicial to the conduct of public affairs? It would better facilitate public affairs to know what our public officials are up to in this murky area.
I’ve launched my e-petition asking the government to keep a national register of IDF fighters in the UK.
It has passed the initial stage and awaits full approval.
You should have the right to know if your school teacher or GP has returned from carrying out genocide overseas.
Now listen, nobody is “vilifying” rich people. They are actual villains. If you run a billion dollar company, give yourself millions in dollars and benefits, but pay your individual workers less than a living wage and give them pathetic insurance, what are you if not a villain???
The Met Police have resources to investigate hurty words against Helen Mirren but have none when it comes to investigating British people who went to Israel to commit war crimes, & returned here with no consequences
This country is a fucking joke
