I prefer non-bio. Only non-original jokes here please. Oh and YNWA.

In 2025 Godrick Osei died in Truro after police dragged him across the floor by his collar, swore at and handcuffed him whilst he was suffering from a medical emergency.

At the inquest his family stated he was treated inhumanely because he was black.

Where was your "pure, cold rage" then @Nigel_Farage?

People like me take great pains to avoid coming across as antisemitic in our criticisms of Israel, and then Jewish Zionists go to these events all “Yes we Jews need to be actively manipulating western institutions in order to deceive everyone and control society.”

My daughter came home from school in north-west London and said her classmate’s cousin is “going to train with the IDF”. THIS is what Polanski is talking about. Why the fuck should our kids be walking around war criminals killing babies?

[Sam Green Party Member @CounsellingSam]

I don't want Zionist murderers walking around the UK. Do you?

Raser tötet Fußgänger & begeht Fahrerflucht: 22 Monate Bewährung. Klimaaktivist (65) blockiert Straße für 30 Min: 22 Monate Knast.

In 🇩🇪 wird Autos blockieren also härter bestraft, als mit Autos Menschen zu töten. Die Autolobby hat echt gute Arbeit über die Jahrzehnte geleistet.

@HadleyFreeman Not enough for Hadley to conflate Jews with Israelis she has to go one step further and conflate all Jews with potential war criminals.

I'd delete this, then again I don't use antisemitism to try and cover for a genocidal state. So I'd never post it in the first place.

@AlexHawthorn2 @WhatTheForkAVFC Shut the fuck up, you sexist prick.

[Tom - JOIN A UNION! @MassiveTom]

@AlexHawthorn2 What a really fucking weird post. Are you okay? Don't do this again.

[Thanos Angelopoulos @Th_Angelopoulos]

This post/segment is a textbook example of the populism it warns about in the final line.

It follows the following technique:

It opens with a genuinely horrible crime with specific documented causes.

Then, without pausing,
it slides into theme park discounts for people on benefits.

Then fare evasion.

By the third paragraph you've moved from Nowak's killing to someone not buying a train ticket, and they're presented as symptoms of the same disease.

That's a grievance smoothie with 0 analytical and rational coherence.

It blends a real injustice with petty resentments for working class people and people in poverty until they're indistinguishable, then serve it under "two-tier Britain" so the audience feels everything is connected without having to explain how.

Notice what's missing:

0 policy analysis.

0 investigation to identify the causes.

0 evidence-based data-backed solutions.

Just "ordinary, law-abiding, tax-paying people".

That's the category everyone puts themselves in, from convicted criminals, like Robinson, to my 85 year old neighbour who makes the best scones in Edinburgh.

And it's that "ordinary, law-abiding, tax-paying people" group pitched against an unnamed "them".

That's populism. Not the populism he's warning about at the end. The populism he's doing, right now, in this post by identifying a virtuous in-group, a parasitic out-group, flattens every problem into a single narrative of victimhood, and offers nothing except the feeling that someone finally said it.

PS: Britain, like 99,999999% of all societies that ever existed, has always been a two-tier system; it's called the class system.

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

An unelected Lord, appointed “antisemitism adviser”, now feels entitled or even qualified to explain antisemitism to a Jewish national party leader.

To add to all this - he's not Jewish.

Truly rabbit hole stuff.

@Jennings18Karl @handsdealts @1goodtern The police at the airport are armed, so what's your fucking point? Did that stop this violence against these officers?

[Tom - JOIN A UNION! @MassiveTom]

@Jennings18Karl @1goodtern Why? No need at all. You will see more deaths, not less.

@Phil_Lewis_ It was probably the raw milk that they consumed. That's probably what made them ill.

@OyVeyPope @antisemitism The opposite is true.

@BurkeHellibee @beffybadbelly Ha, I thought the same! Yours is better, although I think the last one would have to be beef-cattle.

@beffybadbelly As well as tuna fish, as opposed to what, tuna-pork?

People show you examples of discrimination against Jews and it’s somebody wearing a watermelon pin or saying “from the river to the sea”. People show you examples of discrimination against Arabs and it’s families being burned alive in Palestine and Lebanon with western backing.
