We need to bring back intellectual elitism. Sorry, but a virologist will always know more about vaccines than a yoga mommy blogger with a ChatGPT Plus subscription.

i think people from the US officially lost their right to being smug and mock chinas authoritarian surveillance state the past decade or so

you have AI flock cameras, palantir, massive surveillance state, being slave to billionaires, cant even touch a pool of water

Will they ask Christian Pulisic or Weston Mckennie what do they think about their country inflicting a genocide in Gaza and bombing Iranian kids? Why are these type of questions always asked to Asians and Africans?

Two Muslim men pulled an elderly couple and their grandson from a burning house in Leeds last Friday.

You probably didn’t hear about it.

Mohsin Qayyum. 22.
Mohammed Yusuf Iqbal. 20.

Both from Bradford.

They drove past the garden. They saw the fire. They ran straight in.

Sheila Robinson, the grandmother who was trapped inside, posted on social media:

"My family and I will be forever grateful to these young men."

Her granddaughter Kayla wrote:

"Drove past the garden, seen it, and ran straight in and made sure everyone was okay without a second thought."

Everyone got out. The house can be replaced. The family is alive.

Every outlet that covered it called them heroes.

They deserved every word.

But not one headline told you they were Muslim men.

We have seen this before.

Two weeks ago, a teacher was stabbed in the neck protecting his pupils from a knife in his Manchester classroom.

Maysum Abdullah. 27. Science teacher.

LBC named him a hero. So did the Independent, the Manchester Evening News, the Mirror, the Sun.

He ran towards the blade.

A hero in every paper. A Muslim man in none of them.

This is the pattern.

When a Muslim name appears in a crime, the faith leads the headline.

When a Muslim name appears in a rescue, it vanishes from the page.

Now look at who that erasure clears the path for.

Bradford, the same district these men come from, is now led by Reform as its largest party.

One of their candidates, Daniel Devaney, topped the poll in his ward after writing on Facebook that Muslims were "pure scum" and that he wanted to "blast [them] off the face of the earth."

He was not deselected. He was not suspended. He was elected.

They are loud about our religion when they want to call it a threat.

They are silent when that same religion sends two young men running into a fire.

The book they want to criticise is the same book that commands us to save a life.

"Whoever saves one life, it is as if he had saved all of mankind."
— Qur'an 5:32

Qayyum and Iqbal lived that verse on a Friday in Leeds.

Abdullah lived it in a Manchester classroom.

And the headlines recorded the act, but erased the faith that drove it.

When we are the suspect, our religion is the whole story.

When we are the rescuer, it is not worth a line.

Their names are Maysum Abdullah, Mohsin Qayyum, and Mohammed Yusuf Iqbal.

Muslim men.

Say both.

The UN has officially declared Gaza a genocide. And that Israel is deliberately targeting children and babies

Only took them 3 freaking years to get there

[Tianna, the Writer @tiannathewriter]

It's Nick Ferrari's enlightening LBC show that made me go and check, but during the summer of 1976, around 250 people died from the heat PER DAY. Guys... PER DAY.

That's exactly why you can't listen to that generation, they're fucking useless.

[Marl Karx @BareLeft]

We've been making cuts to various degrees of severity for nearly 20 years now, and all we have to show for it is a spluttering economy and even deeper entrenched poverty.

Austerity doesn't work.

A reminder that Zionist expansionism in Latin America has a name: Isaac Accords.

This is Pax Judaica in formation.

There are climate activists sitting in jail for warning about this.

Elon Musk once jokingly offered to end World Hunger, asking how much it would cost as if it would be some incalculable number.
When the UN replied saying 6.6 Billion would be enough to immediately end Famine for the year he never responded, and a few months later bought Twitter for 44 Billion.

You struggle and suffer because people like him are allowed to exist, not because your neighbor is an immigrant.

It's really sunny, and we need energy. It's sunny, and we need more energy... Sunny... and we need energy...

Well, I'm completely out of ideas. Maybe some will occur to me while I'm drilling for North Sea oil.

The Zionist who fired a nail gun at us two years ago and said "Every fu**ing Palestinian will die" is free today with just a $100 surcharge. The impunity Zionists enjoy in the West explains why Palestinians continue to be assaulted and murdered in broad daylight here.

[Stew Peters @realstewpeters]

IRANIAN PRESIDENT: “If we did not have our defensive missiles, Israel and America would have plowed through Iran the way Gaza was plowed through, showing no mercy to the old or the young. They speak of human rights. It is a great lie.”

It’s a hard truth to hear, but it’s true.

Wtf is wrong with Israel? Can they not stop blowing up kids for even one single day?

[Zack Polanski @ZackPolanski]

Our country needs a bold change of direction. Starmer lost the confidence of the country because of his abject failure to challenge the power and wealth of an establishment which has taken for themselves while leaving the vast majority in a cost of living crisis. (1/5)

A man armed with an axe and other weapons entered a mosque in Manchester.

A woman wearing a hijab was hit by a car in southeast London.

A 36-year-old white Scottish man was charged yesterday after stabbing five people in an anti-Muslim hate attack.

An imam’s house in Bolton was targeted in an arson attack.

There have also been multiple attacks on mosques, including an arson attack intended to endanger life, a projectile attack, multiple incidents involving graffitis, and hate signs.

Not a single COBRA meeting. No dedicated officers to protect the community. Just a few tweets.

Few things in British politics are more dependable than Tories hating the predictable consequences of Toryism.
