Lots of "the media" discussion because Ex-Love Island Caroline Flack was hounded mercilessly.🤗

We're clammering for more accountability from #themedia. Wtf Caroline

Yet no one seems to know #rottenjohnny is busy reversing the small gains in accountability that we do have.⏬
Remember phone hacking? We got a tiny win in the aftermath. If the press lied about you, they had to pick up your legal costs

Now #Johnsonregime is reversing that #Brexit bribe

He'll say YOU voted for it. The media didn't tell you? Nice stitch up eh⏬

Brexit made hate ok

Social media helped it spread

Socialist says one
Facist says the other.
Everything opposite

We are fading, far from perfect.

But insulting sportswomen and Paralympians as not elite enough?

What we we did as Empire.
Was awful, is never honestly told.
And is the reason for more than our fair share of pain in the world.
And the death.

But sterilising everyone at Puberty? Having Government decide who's smart enough to be trusted?

#NotOurWay

#YouAintNoBritBruv
Recently we've not done much for world opinion.

But then we were never as trusted in the past as the stories we sold.

Perfidious Albion was our whispered name. Deceitful, arrogant, superior.

Imagine the ridicule if voting is by race or religion?

I recognise this same behaviour in #Brexit. #Brexiters needed an enemy so #Remainers became the enemy.

And the more ridiculous and divorced from 2016 Brexit that their ideas became so the more Remainers pointed that out...

...and the more #Brexiters dug into even worse outcomes driving further lies.

A mutual assured destruction of UK plc.

Could it have been resolved differently?

Well, I can think of many ways that #Brexit could have been an objective project managed on its merits. But...
3/4...none were possible after the lies of 2016.

I think three things could have saved us.

1. Leadership.
a) a good PM would have kicked Brexit into review
b) a good opposition would have built a strong case against.

2. Free Press
If we had one Brexit would have been buried.

It's your #Bonkersbrexit weekly roundup of just how much #Brexitnotdone we've had over the past week.

And wow what a week it was. Crazy actually.

I'm beginning to wonder if it's not us they're trying to convince but themselves...

First, we had the endlessly entertaining Barry from Basildon. Who (un)fortunately is a parody



Then like a gift from #Brexit Gods, we got the very real (confirmed by Indy) clueless Colin reinforcing all stereotypes

Then we had Dr Sune's informative ad-lib history of populism, with a detailed description of the Danish Brexit and how they had managed to step back from the breach away from their Siren's call.

Sadly we looked painfully naive in comparison.

One can sense a new Iron Curtain descending between the US and China. Like all historical comparisons the phrase is inexact. There will likely be no fortified borders. But a kind of "decoupling" is already being urged though no one seems to know what will entail.
Unlike the old Cold War the new one is over two global and incompatible standards jockeying for market control. For the moment both are likely to both compete and coexist on a common exchange level. But just as the CCP has long been building a walled garden so might the West.
It will not be about territory per se; armies of millions standing poised on frontiers. It will be much more virtual. The weapons of the age will be abstract and monetary. The new suitcase nuke will contain cash. The ICBMs will be financial instruments.

#NXIVM #MEXICO Thread.
In my research since the #NXIVMtrial ended almost 4 weeks ago, I discovered that #NXIVM #Mexico was/is MASSIVE, with ties to
#Government
#Hollywood (JamesBond?!)
and #Media
They HAD (still HAVE?) big plans…
2/ During the trial, Mark Vicente testified that Keith Raniere bragged that #NXIVM was so massive, with so many interconnected companies under the NXIVM umbrella, that it couldn’t be taken down.
Really?
Well, even the US Gov’t said it was big…
Much discovery evidence>sealed.
3/ So how big was (is) it?
Remember the Sony Hacks(?!)
In 2015, it was revealed via those leaked emails that the Mexican government paid $20 million (in form of tax breaks etc) to Sony/MGM for a script rewrite on the upcoming James Bond film, Spectre: cinemablend.com/new/Was-James-…

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

#PascoSheriff #HaveYouAllNoShame @CigarCityBeer
Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

1/8 My favorite #quote by #JosephStalin, which explains the scientific, #DialecticalMaterialist explanation of true freedom in material reality, not just as an abstract ideal. #StalinIsBack #StalinLives #JVStalin #Stalin #StalinQuote #StalinQuotes #Truth #MELS #MarxismLeninism
2/8 Having an #objective, #rational, #ScientificSocialist, #Dialectical, & #Materialist viewpoint allows us to accurately see & evaluate & analyze #Truth & #Reality as they truly materially exist in this universe.
3/8 An idealistic, dogmatic viewpoint, which capitalists have, however, makes one irrational enough to 'see' freedom where freedom stays trapped on a piece of paper while people are oppressed in their actual lived lives.
