There&#39;s a Wicker Man semi-remake called The Wicker Tree. I might watch that. #TheWickerMan

I haven&#39;t been paying much attention to the protests in France but at the same time my mind just accepted them as normal and part of the natural progression of things. #protest

#CrispinFlintoff This is fascinating from #KitKlarenberg. Tactics used by our #media and leaders It&#39;s an invidious link so just following the links to youtube if it doesn&#39;t work. https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=FLdjigxtA8I #Disinformation #Propaganda #Spyops

This is a very interesting video about the more recent #AnimalFarm animation. Towards the end they discuss how leftists in the UK might have an imperialist-leaning ideology where they are dismissive of the socialism of other nations. This is 100% holding other countries to a higher standard than the West. So it&#39;s Iran or Russia or North Korea or China and it&#39;s not that there isn&#39;t criticism for those countries, it&#39;s about acknowledging who are the real threat to...

If you like any of my posts it&#39;s purely because of the &quot;Stopped clock&quot; factor and occasionally I&#39;ll accidentally get something right.

I&#39;m certainly interested in this but I have my concerns because I expect they will just use some corporate service to make it happen and it won&#39;t be truly independent. I hope they don&#39;t do that though. I hope it does well and counters the corporate bullshit we get from our media. #CrispinFlintoff | Radical Radio: News on the hour, built by us It&#39;s an invidious link so watch on youtube if it doesn&#39;t work. https://invidious.nerdvpn.de/watch?v=f0roelpKFrI...

I&#39;m currently reading The Odyssey, by the way. It&#39;s kinda good so far. I stopped reading Julia because I found the world building dull, I didn&#39;t think the author really understood the oppressive authoritarianism of the 1984 world, and I didn&#39;t like how the Julia narrative was changing the interpretation of 1984 events. It just felt too much like meddling with someone else&#39;s book. Anyway, so now I&#39;m reading The Odyssey. #reading #books

Yeah, I like it how when folk are duped by a propaganda campaign, they don&#39;t just say they were duped, they have to rope everyone else into the equation to say we can *all* be fooled sometimes -- as if it&#39;s you that needs to learn the lesson, not them.

I&#39;ve started blocking those bots which automatically boost certain hashtags. If you want to follow a hashtag on Fedi, you can already do that so I&#39;ve never really understood the need for a bot to boost them except for scraping information perhaps.

I was just considering how the anti-semitism smears used against #Corbyn perhaps set up the resistance to Israeli propaganda that aided the pro-Palestinian support. I wonder if support for Palestine after October 7th would have been so immediate if so many people hadn&#39;t witnessed how politicians and media had brought down a good politician just to silence criticism of Israel. The Israeli genocide in Gaza has shown more profoundly how much Western governments and media will do to mainta...

This is a good discussion about the Zionism is racism motion and the shift in British politics. There&#39;s talks of the #GreenParty and #ZackPolanski&#39;s weak reaction to the motion. He talks well but when it came to the test of supporting the motion, he decided to not take sides. They also discuss the fake left like #Novara and #OwenJones. https://asawinstanley.substack.com/p/zionism-is-racism-and-the-shift-in #ZionismIsRacism #AsaWinstanley #Palestine
