@LilySimpson1312 Can we just get one thing straight here, Autism isn't something you develop, it's something you're born with it. It might not show till a certain age, but that's because you haven't gotten to the stage it starts to impact your life.

[alpha @omarsbigsister]

everything about the UK is terrifying. jailing activists against genocide for 40 years, banning young people from accessing social media websites and talking to one another, rampant ugly racism and poverty, forcing everyone to upload their ID to TALK to other people, it's scary!

[jamie ▴ @linkkling]

yeah so this is a social media ban for everyone in the uk btw. unless you want to hand a copy of your personal identification to the company behind every app you use

[James Throt MBBS, MD, PhD, FRCPath @JamesThrot]

Comparing Face ID for Apple Pay to submitting ID online to access social media is like comparing unlocking your own front door with your own key, to handing your passport over to a company you’ve never met so they can decide whether you’re allowed into your own house.

Vote this pro-genocide stooge out of office #CO01! It's time for change!

Stand with @MelatKirosCO against the war machine!

[Film The Police LA @FilmThePoliceLA]

LA Mayor Karen Bass will never criticize the LAPD because the police union owns her.

Bass used taxpayer money to buy the police union’s endorsement, the union will now spend millions to fight her opponent, and they expect Karen Bass to never criticize them. Or else.

Facts are antisemitic.

[The Fraud @StarmertheFraud]

This is wrong on the suffragettes but it's also wrong on Palestine Action. The court said Palestine Action acted covertly.

But Pal Action operated very much in the public domain, sharing videos and content. They had a Twitter and Instagram account! It's founders Huda Ammori and Richard Barnard were known and widely interviewed about how they operated. In July 2024 Prospect had a profile of them both called "How to shut down a weapons factory." Pal Action contributed op-eds and actionists were widely interviewed (often after they were acquitted, like the Elbit 3 were in 2021).

It's only true inasmuch as they didn't broadcast their targets ahead of time because that would lead to them being stopped. Duh, of course not. Did the suffragettes publish pamphlets ahead of time saying where they were going to smash windows and chain themselves to railings? Did the anti-apartheid movement and Lord Peter Hain phone the government to let them know when they were going to invade sports pitches or lock themselves to stadia?

As ever, it's hard not to despair at the British judiciary and it's deference to government power. Don't forget it was the same courts that decided it was ok for the UK to send F-35 parts to Israel despite the very clear risk that they contribute to war crimes, saying that it wasn't for the courts to gainsay executive decisions - decisions taken by politicians funded by pro-Israeli donors and taking free all-expenses trips to Israel.

A leaked memo shows the European Union has known since 2017 that it had the legal right to freeze Israel's trade deal due to Israel's persistent violations of international law in the occupied West Bank. https://t.co/0lkP43NBaV

[Mark Ames @MarkAmesExiled]

If I'm reading this right, this phony disclosure scandal is manufactured by one of Kristof's own friendly sources he'd cited in an old article, an elite source who'd donated to Kristof's 2021 campaign. Anything to help Israel cover up its torture camps.

The fact that your government has made it illegal for me to answer yes is a damning testament to your flagrant disregard for civil liberties.

This may be targeted at those taking action against the genocide, but it sets a very dangerous precedent that puts everyone at risk.

"Sky News has verified the identities of everyone from the school who was killed. 120 students, 73 boys & 47 girls, aged from 6 to 13, & 26 teachers, who were killed in the strike".

@Chesh reports on the primary school bombed by the US. 120 children & 26 teachers, all murdered.

[Sa’eed Jiddan @mish_aderr]

They’re coming for everyone’s homes because you let them do it in Palestine

[Saul Staniforth @SaulStaniforth]

The Lady Chief Justice: Palestine Action was not a direct action civil disobedience protest group like the suffragettes, but used violence to destroy property

The suffragettes burned down country houses & train stations, bombed churches & sent letter bombs to politicians.

[Mike from PA @Mike_from_PA]

They did the exact same thing to Mandela Barnes in 2018, he ended up losing by 1%, while the DNC poured tens of millions of dollars into a Florida centrist police chief who ended up losing by over 15%. Controlled opposition party that would rather lose with centrism.

“Too many people have made opposing mass slaughter a part of their personality”

How does this thought even enter the liberal mind?

[Adam Cochran (adamscochran.eth) @adamscochran]

Claiming it is AI generated when the guy posted it himself, and the post had a URL that then said “deleted by the author” is next level stupid lol

[asad abukhalil أسعد أبو خليل @asadabukhalil]

You may have mentioned that they were chanting for Palestine.

[Bite Your Brum @BiteYourBrum]

So just to be clear, a 16 year old girl can legally have a baby but can’t watch TikToks after dinner? Sound 😂

[Mouin Rabbani @MouinRabbani]

During his final days, ensconced in his bunker as the Red Army closed in on central Berlin, a delirious and delusional Hitler ordered non-existent German military divisions to attack Moscow from three directions and seize the Kremlin. It went something like this:

[Yanis Varoufakis @yanisvaroufakis]

There you have it. Anthropic's CEO said it: The murder of more than 100 schoolgirls in Minab targeted by Anthropic's CLAUDE "is a use case that doesn't even violate our red lines." Time to rise up against these technofeudal war criminals.
