Jailing Palestine Supporters is Starmers Latest Enthusiasm

The other journalist was Sarah Wilkinson who is under house arrest and faces prison.

And on a related but seperate note, to add to the ‘Fuck Labour’ sentiment, Labour has been imprisoning climate protesters too, some have gotten years.

I wish more people knew how to read.

Yeah fucking tell me about it.

Counter terrorism police raid home of journalist for exposing Israeli crimes

There was another I remember reading about too, a woman. I’m struggling to find anything on google though. If I can remember some of the article wording and find it, I’ll let you know.

No shit. I’m not defending musk.

The committee’s chair, Chi Onwurah, a Labour MP, said she wanted to see how Musk, who owns the X social media platform, “reconciles his promotion of freedom of expression with his promotion of pure disinformation”.

That’s a bit fucking rich coming from Kid Starver and his party of loyal Labour Zionosts. Labour have been ‘promoting pure disinformation’ and removing rights to ‘free expression’ at breakneck speed since they smeared Corbyn.

What freedom of expression/from pure disinformation is Labour protecting?

They’ve raided the homes of journalists reporting too honestly on the Palestinian genocide.

They’re actively promoting transphobia and enforcing medical harm to trans folk by supporting the politically motivated hateful bullshit in the Cass report.

Fuck Labour.

For a very long time we had a robust system of public violence that prevented a lot of this. Not all of it, but a lot.

That’s not as true as you want it to be, sadly.

People who abuse others tend to be very good at manipulating themselves into positions of power and authority in other ways too, and abusive people are often a product of the society and people they were raised by.

Conservative religious societies really aren’t historically (or currently) known for treating their women and children well, and before very recently, conservative and religious was the default everywhere.

Also you might not be old enough to know just how much more common and socially ignored child abuse used to be, even 30 years ago. Spousal abuse too. Women and children have only recently gotten legal rights in many western countries.

“the absolute worst fucking people on earth get away with everything.”

They always have done, we just get to hear about them more often now as outrage gets page views/ad revenue.

I joined SLRPNK.net shortly before kbin kicked the bucket and I quite like the user interface and customisation options here, even if I don’t comment much these days.

Also as the pessimistic misanthrope doomer I am, I was originally getting a bit of a kick out of how painfully naive and optimistic the hippies here were/are. I just try to ignore it now though tbh as it’s depressing.

Pretty sure Kbin is dead and gone, might want to update your tree.
