I'm not explaining myself. Judge me on my behaviour. "We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim. Silence encourages the tormentor, never the tormented." — Elie Wiesel, Nobel Acceptance Speech, Oslo, December 10, 1986

In my pre-Bellingcat days, I worked for an organisation that housed asylum seekers, and I'd challenge anyone who think they get an easy time to spend a few months living in the same conditions and see how they feel about it then.
When I did a story on conditions in migrant hotels, there was a woman who would have to wash the spicy sauce off the pasta - in the sink - because there was no meal suitable for her toddler. She felt like a bad mum who couldn’t feed her own child

This is what democracy looks like… It’s a choice It’s made by showing up each day. It isn’t the big speech, a media hit, punditry, or even the autocrats lies. It’s showing others you aren’t afraid and finding small things you can uniquely do to make a difference. open.substack.com/pub/trygveol...

Hey British media, It’s no surprise that if you give Farage the run of the place, he’ll start winning. Time to do your actual jobs and start interrogating him on his Brexit shitshow, his funding, his Trumpiness, his idiotic manifesto, his real plans for the NHS… instead of drumrolling him into No.10

Every "yes" Trump gets speeds him up to both keep revictimizing his target and moving onto others. Tell him no. Waste his time. Make him fight. Drag it out. And the more people who say no, the more resources he has to expend. He is not unlimited in time and energy. Waste his.
