WE DID IT!!! We stopped "Tommy Robinson" from becoming an MEP! 🎉
THANK YOU to everyone who voted and took a stand against Robinson's hateful and divisive rhetoric. #EuropeanElectionResults a photo of tommy robinson with his face scribbled out. underneath text says
When we began this campaign, we based it on the knowledge that it was completely possible to stop 'Robinson' from becoming an MEP, but we needed to get people out to vote.

We delivered 360,000 leaflets to households in the North West who we knew were anti-hate.
We also invested heavily in digital advertising, which saw 2.4m people seeing our targeted digital advertising over the course of the election.

All of this was possible because of more than 1000 donations made by HOPE not hate supporters to our campaign to stop Tommy.
We are only able to do the work that we do because of donations from people who believe in our work of challenging hate and building communities.

The far-right has not wasted a minute connecting the fire in the Notre Dame cathedral to a range of far-right conspiratorial ideas. Many suggest that it wasn’t an accident but an attack by Muslims or a consequence of Muslim immigration and a sign that the West is in decline. an image of Notre Dame Cathedral, Paris, up in flames
This is an example of how the far-right is using a tragic accident and based on no evidence, putting it in a context of an ongoing conflict between Muslims and “Europeans” and stoking up Islamophobia.
Conspiracy theorist and UKIP member Paul Joseph Watson, as well as his business partners at InfoWars, suggests that the fire was deliberate.

There’s an extraordinary story in the Scottish Mail today: UKIP activist Mark Meechan (AKA “Count Dankula”) has been given a job on a BBC programme. Here’s a thread on why this is an incredible decision for the BBC to have taken...
1. Meechan is an online "comedian" best known for a video in which he repeatedly uses phrases like “gas the jews” as a prompt to get a pug to perform a Hitler salute. He was convicted of causing "gross offence" under the Communications Act in April last year.
2. The trial made Meechan a symbol for the far right, which has capitalised on his trial. He has done interviews with 'Tommy Robinson', Lauren Southern, Gavin McInness, Milo Yiannopoulos, Rebel Media and Alex Jones.

What is the #manosphere, who's behind it and why is it anti-feminist? @SimonMurdochHNH explains why:
"Manosphere ideas have snowballed into an ideology that has taken on a life of its own, and for some, it has served as a route into wider far-right politics."

I wish those who voted for him because "he speaks his mind" knew how much pain and suffering his words, mind and ego cause every day for a large number of people around the world.
It is important to remember that no one man, however corrupt, can single-handedly cause such level of destruction to the world. It takes a large number of people with a neglected moral compass to follow him in his footsteps. Think WWII.
And it is naive to think that his supporters are evil at heart. In a modern polarized society, it is impractical if not impossible, for one to break their "thought bubble" and stay conscious of and compassionate to the suffering of others.

As long as it takes. Frustrating yes and one can only imagine the enormous strength our POTUS must have to face the evil each day. The President cannot do it alone and we the people must continue to evolve our tactics and willingness to step into a new battlefront forced on us by
a determined and organized foe that seeks to destroy our nation, demoralize our people and plunder our spirit. The collusive, hateful and divisive media has to be held to account, and the saboteurs and enemies within our government rooted out and brought to justice.
Remember, IMO Our nation was at the precipice of the end as we know it, and @realdonaldtrump has given US the chance to re-establish our nation of, for and by the people. We knew this wouldn't be easy and the battles would be fierce as the deep state fought,

In this 1972 interview, Angela Davis was asked if she approved of violence in protest. Her response is must-watch material.
These words by James Baldwin are from 1964, but they might as well have been spoken today. Another must-watch moment.
Here's Maya Angelou describing her friendship with Martin Luther King Jr and Malcolm X to none other than Dave Chappelle.

1. There seems to be a lot of battle fatigue and division in the #QAnon community. If Q never posted again, we have more than enough to do battle. Reread the drops. We have 6 months worth of rich knowledge to explore/research/post/educate others.
2. Many are just learning. Maybe it would be helpful and bring #unity to the community for us to share what we've learned. What are your favorite Q crumbs? Feel free to post here and repost to spread the word.

What about Q #570 1/21/18 The Sixteen Year Plan To Destroy America?
3. What if cures for many diseases like cancer already exist, but Big Pharma is keeping them secret to gain $$$ in grants, donations, research etc.

How many researchers have been killed?

Tonight, I’m so proud to say that our hard work has paid off: it will be my immense pleasure to serve the state of Wisconsin as a justice on our Supreme Court.
I jumped into this race because I wanted to serve our state in a bigger way; I wanted to stand up for the values I believe we’ve strayed from; and I wanted to show my daughters that when it comes to our home, it’s important to fight with everything we have.
We’re here because people like you joined us along the way and I want to take a moment to thank you. To everyone who voted today, to my team, to our supporters and volunteers, to my husband Brad and my girls Abby, Ellie, and Rachel: thank you.
