Refuse "Cults of Personality". Refuse placing individuals on pedestals for any purpose especially that of building followings to empower those individuals and their chosen few, no matter how beneficial it may seem. Refuse cultures that place individualism above collectivism. Refuse strategies that entrench hierarchies. Refuse messages that use identity as a tool to achieve any aim. Refuse to accept faith above evidence. Refuse to allow 'memory holes' and the delusions they create. Refuse to be silent in the face of almost religious fervor around so-called 'political' leaders. This is where #NOGODS culture starts.

You wanted to know where YourParty donations have been used, here you go. Jeremy and James Schneider on a little trip to Cuba.
Peace & Justice Project@corbyn_project

Our founder @jeremycorbyn has arrived in Havana as part of the Nuestra América aid convoy, breaking Trump’s illegal siege and delivering vital aid to the Cuban people, and was greeted by President @DiazCanelB. Solidarity knows no borders. Viva Cuba! 🇨🇺

@BTimberley @EESprite Yeah, say 'banana'. Otherwise, Corbyn, as a representative of policies which had millions of people backing them (including unwitting Conservatives) was that 'effective political opposition'

@Sam_Gorst For what? Calling you names? Grow up and piss off. You are one of the worst people i've ever had the misfortune to ever come across. You're a raging Narcissist, and nasty little twerp. You literally brag that you have Corbyn on speed dial!!! You're playground bully. 🤣

@ttroughton @EESprite Plenty. Mount an effective political opposition here in the UK, provide direct state sanctioned support to Cuba after winning an election. Corbyn sabotages that every time. Go on, say his name: Pierre Omidyar. Say it. You cant, you wont. I know what you are. 😄

@BTimberley @EESprite Dear Ben, please start a thread on Byline Times; happy to hear it, if around. The subject currently under discussion is Corbyn's visit to Cuba. Do you have anything else to add eg specifics on what to do instead?

@BTimberley @EESprite NB I agree with "Call to authority logical fallacy", unless consulting an authority; a plumber, or specialist in 17th c Persian. I see the necessity of demonstrating the mass humanity of non-authoritarians via representatives who, in this case, happen to be Corbyn & Kneecap.

@ttroughton @EESprite I find it hilarious you dont want to talk about Omidyar. Why not? What are you hiding? Your deflections are piss weak.

@BTimberley @EESprite These effective ways being those which have done so much to end the decades of punitive blockades? Btw you're being agreed with by someone who supports petitions & donations to a private company. Perhaps you could both agree on what you mean by "grift" - or perhaps not.

@ttroughton @EESprite If this then that logical fallacy. Call to authority logical fallacy. Kneecap are irrelevant. Petitions are performative. Private donations are the primary tool of the grift. Cuba can be supported by people in much more effective ways. Unassociated with Corbyn or ProgInt.

@ttroughton @EESprite If you work for Bylines, you're the enemy. But then you know this already. The people you are promoting are dishonest grifters. If you want to have a polite, collegiate conversation, end your affiliation with Bylines, and we can talk. You might be surprised at what you learn.

@BTimberley @EESprite Well, I have no idea who you are, and no desire to be on your side, in fact. I'm rather more concerned with your attacks on people who stand up to illegal and inhumanly barbarous policies, but I'm sure you're happy to know that you're not alone.

@ttroughton @EESprite This Gonzo-style gotcha questioning is beneath you, and all of us. The blockade of Cuba is unquestionably wrong. We all know this. Corbynism is a grift. CodePink is a grift. YourParty is a grift. All with various ties to intelligence product and assets. Say something useful!

@EESprite @BTimberley "Some" Cubans. Others disagree. Is it your opinion that the illegal US blockade should remain unchallenged, and if so, why are you happy to let Cubans die as a result?

@ttroughton @EESprite Yes. My enemies. I know who and what they are. Noone on *my* side can work for Bylines, and as a result, Omidyar. If you want me to be polite to you, examine who you work for, and why I hold the views I do. You're only as freelance as your paycheque.

@ttroughton @EESprite Once again, I dont care what a servant of Omidyar thinks. 😆 I'm very aware of what my enemies are up to regarding Cuba. Now kindly, fuck off back to Bylines HQ and pass on my most venomous disgust with all of them.

@BTimberley @EESprite Once again, your flailingly unpleasant, fact-free comments fail to address reality. Are you suggesting the US isn't mounting an illegal blockade of Cuba, with devastating effects? That would certainly surprise the US administration.

@ttroughton @EESprite Mendaciously framing this grift doesn't make it any better. We know what's going on with this section of the "left". They can all go get in the seam

@EESprite @BTimberley Well, one must applaud the efficiency of the illegal US blockade - you are aware this isn't just a "power crisis" I presume. A handful of visitors "eating more than is available"? Far better, in your view, to stay well away & silent, while Cubans on the ground suffer & die?

@BTimberley It's a salty accusation. Ben should know better. He has no evidence to suggest this trip was paid for by Your Party funds. Come on Ben. This is childish. Evidence?

This means that a verified account with a paid partnership wants to kidnap me, torture me, and murder me. @elonmusk and his employees at @X refuse to remove this, so it’s clear that they support such a terror operation. This isn’t surprising - after all, they support genocide.

'Hope Not Hate' and government advisor on the online safety bill, activist Liron Velleman, walked free yesterday after getting a suspended sentence for multiple child sex offences. His Dad flew in from Israel to support his son and take him for a celebratory drink afterwards.
