My favorite thing about anti-car urbanism Twitter is that they seem constitutionally incapable of understanding backlash, even when they’re not LARPing as civil rights activists.

Holding Queen Elizabeth personally responsible for colonialism when her reign oversaw basically the entirely of decolonization is… certainly a take.

Yeah, because Sanders has proven so effective at wooing Senate Republicans over to his side.
"Fascism is statism run amok" isn't even conservative propaganda; it's plutocratic and anarcho-libertarian propaganda.
That Mussolini quote is from a speech delivered after he had embarked upon his very public effort to transform the Kingdom of Italy into a "Fascist State."
European fascists saw the state as yet another tool for their movement, which was embodied by the Leader and his Party.
Fascism's relationship with the state has been one of tension, even where fascists achieved power, as the State was forced to compete with Party institutions.

Swift and lethal as a jaguar’s kiss, the mysterious Brotherhood of Assacyclists has no allies on the battlefields of Britain—only clients and victims.
Yet they thirst, these wheelriders. Thirst for the blood of she what spurned them. Thirst for the Swedish Unicorn.

England, 2024
Led by Gov Sadiq Khan, the Free City of London applies for EU membership.
Though wary of Jacobites, a panicked Lord Protector Boris the Pasty orders Chief Justiciar Rees-Mogg's army away from the bloody Snowdonia Front to reinforce the assault on the Luton Salient.
Meanwhile, in Ulster, Protestant and Catholic alike has found it rather easy to accustom themselves to things like the Euro, harp-embossed burgundy passports, and no food queues.
Fascism erodes or destroys state power in order to produce situations of lawlessness or anarchy wherein fascists are the biggest gang on the block and can do whatever they like to whomever they like.

Seems to me that Jeremy Corbyn is probably an unconscious anti-Semite. I'd wager he genuinely doesn't consider himself an anti-Semite, doesn't recognize anti-Semitism when he sees it, and deals in anti-Semitic tropes whose only aspects he comprehends are the anti-capitalist bits.
Cries of "anti-Semitism!" over that video of him are a reach. But what prompts such wariness?
The fact that Corbyn is steeped in a conspiratorial anti-Semitic milieu (Google his brother Piers), defends anti-Semites, & rehabilitates anti-Semites under the guise of "anti-Zionism."
