  • These clauses added to the Bill yesterday grant powers for police to access any online account and the information within it, on approval of a senior officer, through a seized phone or device.

    Any online account. So Instagram and TikTok, but also NHS accounts, banking apps, work accounts, they have carte blanche to just rifle through anything and everything that you’ve signed into? With no judicial warrant required.

    America may be openly fascist now, but the UK isn’t far behind.

    And this is under a Labour government.

    If you have any left wing leanings, vote Green in future, convince friends and family to vote Green.

    Labour are authoritarian and the Lib-Dems will sell out any principles for a whiff of power. The Greens might have some shit candidates, but they at least support proportional representation and not starting a police state.


  • The original numbers were 4-6 million, it’s only recently been corrected to 13 million by some sources.

    4-6 million is pathetic. 13 million is a lot better.

    Of course I’m negative when it looks like less than 2 out of 100 of you can be arsed to oppose fascism.

    Well done for finally waking up, but you haven’t done great yet. Keep going. Until Trump and his ilk are gone you haven’t achieved anything but let off some steam.

    Keep up the momentum!

    Is that better? 🥕🥕🥕🥕




  • For an issue that doesn’t effect the Dutch. And yet they still showed up in solidarity, because they have principles, and understand that to live in a democratic country means taking responsibility for its politics and not just voting every 4-5 years.

    Americans are being kidnapped, assassinated, and having entire departments shut down, and their turnout isn’t much better than the Dutch outraged at what’s happening another continent away.

    I want them to learn that if they want change they need to do something, instead of giving every excuse under the sun as to why they couldn’t show up as has been done in other threads.

    This is a good start I guess, but it hasn’t done anything to stop Trump and co yet. They need to pump those numbers up.



  • If the numbers of 4-6 million are true then less than 2% of Americans showed up. The pictures of big crowds was impressive, but that’s not enough. To the outside world, it looks like you have bowed down.

    Take inspiration from this protest in The Netherlands and chastise your neighbours, your colleagues, your friends and family, to march, or this time next year America may just be a fully fledged fascist state with no personal freedom.





  • I think you’re attacking the wrong people.

    If you’ved lived in the same home for 50 years, brought up children there, made and maintained a garden there, formed a community with your neighbours, would you want to move?

    Old people living in a home with 3 bedrooms instead of 1 is at the very bottom of the list of reasons there’s a housing crisis.

    Businesses owning hundreds of homes, artificially manipulating supply, landlords profiteering and increasing rents every single year, they are far more to blame than a granny who just wants to end her days in the house she’s made home.
