"YouTuber. Christian. Trump Advisor. Husband and Father of 8 children. Here's my Podcast link..." 🤮

Free-market capitalism: the more dumb, unhinged, provocative, & outrageous the claims, the more the rewards (in heaven, but especially on earth!) ImageImageImageImage
In 2018, Trump appointed Taylor Marshall to his campaign’s Catholic Advisory Board. A Texan & convert to Catholicism, Marshall has long used YouTube to propagate a version of the faith that combines hard-core traditionalism with cloak-and-dagger intrigue.

“From the year AD 33 to 2020, Catholicism has not changed one iota,” he stated in a recent video, those who disagree are: “algae, bacteria, goo.”

He has a book, "Infiltration: The Plot to Destroy the Church From Within" - like a conspiracy novel written by an 8-yr-old on acid. ImageImageImageImage

'Under-fire Elon Musk urged to get a grip on @X and reality – or resign.'

Resignation it is then!

Chamber of Progress pens open letter pressing adolescent billionaire to behave better following the #FarageRiots in England & Northern Ireland.

theregister.com/2024/08/07/elo…
Echoing objections to social-media fuelled violence from the government of the UK & others, the Chamber of Progress, a tech business advocacy group, is urging delusional adolescent billionaire Musk to take his leadership role at @X more seriously - or resign if he cannot do so. Image
Since July 29 when right-wing influencers made false claims on Twitter/@X & other social media platforms that falsely blamed the murder of three children on Muslims & asylum-seeking immigrants, dozens of far-right #FarageRiots erupted around the nation.

The #FarageRiots started with a lie – a fake name and false information that suggested the teenager alleged to have killed three young girls in #Southport was a Muslim asylum seeker. He was neither.

A psychologist explains our cognitive biases.
theconversation.com/the-hypocrisy-…
There is an uncomfortable hypocrisy at the heart of this story, which is that people didn’t react the same way when, earlier this year, a white man killed a 14-year-old black boy, Daniel Anjorin, with a sword.
While that perpetrator was treated as a horrific anomaly, the Southport attacker was viewed by racist rioters as representative of migrants & Muslims, despite being neither.

A psychologist explains the cognitive biases and psychological responses behind this disparate treatment.

Advice for friends & family of those radicalised through extremist propaganda leading to the #FarageRiots.

The @OppAttune Project is developing an innovative approach to tracking, attuning & limiting the spread of extreme political narratives.

theconversation.com/three-steps-to…
Researchers have developed & articulated the concept of “everyday extremism” to acknowledge that extreme narratives derived from non-mainstream sources can become a part of mainstream political discourse via social media.

oppattune.eu/mapping-extrem…
Such discourse typically involves symbolic violence against a person or group which has the potential to escalate into real-world harm, if encouraged.

As usual, @elonmusk takes a half-truth, removes important context, then selectively presents a misleading claim implying something about contemporary society, in this case mobilising a 'white victimhood' racist dog whistle narrative to fuel anger, division, & engagement.
Image
Musk presents the claim that the etymological origins of the word word slave derives solely from the exploitation of 'white people', rather than, say, emphasising how religious texts from Judaism, Islam & Christianity all recognise slaves as a separate class of people in society. Image
Before examining Musk's misleading claim, it's worth knowing that the word 'Slav' refers to a member of the most numerous ethnic & linguistic body of peoples in Europe, residing chiefly in eastern & southeastern Europe but extending also across northern Asia to the Pacific Ocean.

#NEW opinion poll: "73% of the British public say that the riots are shaming rather than standing up for Britain, & the public overwhelmingly believe that those helping clear up after the riots (87%) represent British values." - @Moreincommon_ 🇬🇧

moreincommon.org.uk/our-work/resea…
Rather than attitudes to the riots sitting in two contrasting pro- & anti-riots camps, public opinion is akin to Russian Dolls: small groups are willing to condone the riots but much bigger groups with opinions cited as motivation for the violence condemn it without hesitation.
The smallest group are those who express support for the unrest: 7% of the public say they are ashamed Britain is a multi-ethnic country; 8% think violent demonstrations outside asylum seeker accommodation are acceptable; & the 11% who have a positive opinion of Tommy Robinson.
