Meta and Twitter are genuinely enemies of democracy.

After the first round elections, Congressman André Janones created a WhatsApp channel titled “Lula’s Army.” It ballooned to 10 million people following his commands on how to behave online to counteract Meta’s far-right-favouring algorithms. The right knows how to use socials. We must learn, too.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Lol, they are never not collaborating with power

NEW: Archbishop Jeffrey Grob of Milwaukee apologized on Sunday for praying over President Trump in the Oval Office last week, and he accused the White House of posting video of the prayer without the bishops’ consent.

Zionism vs Judaism. Here is an image that should explain the difference, Jewish photojournalist Heidi Levine being punched, kicked, stamped on and robbed, by Zionists. #ZionismIsRacism

Depressing to hear the BBC propagating the non-story started by the Tories about the possibility of power cuts because of renewables A classic fossil fuel lie being given credibility by our public service broadcaster #BBCR4Today

Would democrats in power be justified in having the FBI kick in the door of Ted Cruz (born in Canada), Bernie Moreno (born in Colombia), Michelle Park Steel (born in South Korea). Do the republicans never stop and think that what they're doing can be done to them www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I used to think Al Bundy was a loser in the opening credits of Married With Children, sitting there on the couch with his wallet out, handing out money to all and sundry. Now I look at him and I think, what an absolute legend.

Not only does Europe need to develop its own version of Starlink, they need to develop re-usable rocketry for launching such satellites too to rival Spacex. America is an unreliable partner.

Elon Musk ordered the slowdown of a version of SpaceX’s Starlink that Ukraine has relied on in its war against Russia, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday, citing U.S. officials and people familiar with the matter. More details: cnb.cx/4sdMvOQ

80% sure this is Barron

wow -- a protester right behind Vance spikes his MAGA hat and start yelling at Vance before getting hauled out. Vance smears him for allegedly looking like he hasn't washed his hair.

So there's these two guys Gilbert & Sullivan and they come along and they write a whole bunch of really successful music and then this guy comes along and he's a really successful musician and his name is Gilbert O'Sullivan. It's suspicious is all I'm saying.

I think it's incredibly childish and irrelevant to accuse SF of supporting nazism at some point. I think it's childish to accuse FG of the same for what it's worth.

When the democrats win in a landslide in November, which it seems they will, you will see all of the NYTimes and WaPo and Atlantic people say that now is the time to unite the country, return to normal politics, reach across the aisle. All the stuff none of them say when republicans win.

Zionism is a broad term that everyone seems happy to talk at cross purposes about. But in its current guise and indeed implementation it is indisputably racist, nationalistic apartheid.

Why are all the idiots called Tommy ?

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

Mark Allen questioned his own "bottle" after the semi final against Wu Yize last april. He'd do better to watch his interview on TNT this afternoon if he wants to see what bottle he has. Sheer guts, what a legend.

To save you from reading this guff, I did. The point she gave up on Trump was this week with the Tiger video. Precisely 5 years 7 months and 11 days after he led an attempted coup d'etat on the United States. His DOGE cuts will kill millions of children. Take that snowflakes.

Oh fuck off

To have been 18 when WW2 started you would now be 105.

My dad fought in the war and he wasn't a racist. My late mother was a teenager and dedicated her life to helping refugees. My cousin is in her 80s and "fucking hates racists". You don't get a get out of racist jail free card simply for being old and having happened to have lived during a war.

I don't know how CBS News can claim it's a nonpartisan news outlet when a prominent CBS correspondent like Jan Crawford goes after Abdul El-Sayed in such a ridiculous manner. Of course, Crawford attended the CBS owners' dinner in honor of Trump, so her MAGA leanings were already well established.
