This the first, data-based analysis of the PiS electorate in Poland that I have seen. Among other things, only a quarter understand what LGBT means, which is perhaps why anti-LGBT propaganda is so effective

Also underlines central importance of enormous new welfare spending. It comes at the expense of other investments, but in the countryside, where it has enabled many people to stop working, it is hugely popular

On the anniversary of D-Day, please read this speech made by Charles Lindbergh in 1941. Lindbergh was part of the original "America First" movement. If his argument had won, the US would not have entered the war, D-Day would not have happened at all

"An English victory, if it were possible at all, would necessitate years of war and an invasion of the Continent of Europe. I believe this would create prostration, famine and disease in Europe—and probably in America—such as the whole world has never experienced before...."

Le Pen down from 2014. Vox down from last month. Dutch far-right unchanged. Wilders out altogether. But yes, do go ahead and read these results any way you want.

Graph of current, former EU parliament
Greens, liberals and far-right are all UP. Center-left, center-right are DOWN. In many countries, turnout is also UP. European politics now matter to people.
As in the Spanish parliamentary elections, the rise of "far-right" parties also inspired the opposite: mobilization of liberals

Yeshua name is one of Satan's most brilliant deceptions because it is based on specious knowledge. Specious means something that seems true & makes logical sense but is actually not true at all. Satan's most cunning deceptions are always based on specious knowledge. #JesusChrist
The word "Yeshua" translates to Joshua, not Jesus. Jesus is not represented by a feminine noun. Yeshua is the name of the Jewish Messiah, the Antichrist.
The bible doesn't record His Jewish name for this very reason, only in Greek. If His Hebrew name in a dead language were of any importance it would have been preserved in scripture.

Horrific attack on Muslims in New Zealand is a reminder that demagoguery kills. Far-right pols like Trump who spew hate & fascist language should be rebuked until they stop. And their propagandists shouldn’t be given a platform to gaslight, downplay or normalize the danger. @CNN
@CNN @AC360 @ChrisCuomo @ErinBurnett @donlemon 🔥"like White ISIS"—YES @WajahatAli. White nationalism is a terrorist ideology used to kill in Christchurch, Charleston, Charlottesville, Pittsburgh… PLS stop giving a platform to xenophobic "border invasion" #propaganda against immigrants, Muslims, refugees—disguised as debate.
@CNN @AC360 @ChrisCuomo @ErinBurnett @donlemon @WajahatAli Just b/c Trump is president doesn't mean media must legitimize his propaganda. Y'day a propagandist per hour appeared on CNN—downplaying his fascist threats of violence. To CNN's credit, the hosts pushed back. But engaging in debate elevates & mainstreams illegitimate propaganda.

🌈 Thread on the #LGBT record of Cory Booker
2012:Mayor Booker "Dear God: We should not be putting civil rights issues to a popular vote subject to the sentiments or passions of the day, No minority should have their civil rights subject to the majority"
Booker is so correct on this take. Amendment 1 and Prop 8 were extremely painful for #LGBT people. We woke up the next day looked around and forever wondered who voted for us, who against. The majority should never never vote on minority rights.
Booker goes on to talk about #LGBT Americans being second class citizens. "Its ridiculous and offensive we are even having this debate, it should have been done years ago." 2012

0/ Thread. Having spent some time with @Nicolas_Colin on his new book HEDGE about #tech, #entrepreneurship, social #policy and the future of the Safety Net, I'm sharing some things that stuck with me, and why HEDGE is one for the ☀️📚📝 #readinglist amazon.com/Hedge-Greater-…
1/ @Nicolas_Colin is thought-provoking not least because of his vantage point - graduated from the French ENA, worked at the top of the French civil service, set up his own company, and invests in startups all over 🇪🇺 with @_TheFamily
2/ Im not one for party politics, and HEDGE isn't about that. It's a book that speaks to the zeitgeist of the #techlash and ways for #startup #founders and #politicians to think about smart, sensible policies to build an inclusive Safety Net 2.0 📖
