@NathonC_05 @AaronBastani Rewatched, wasn't as bad as I remembered. Also, TBF, both A and NM have put out some better articles/tweets since.

@NathonC_05 @AaronBastani Started watching, stopped pretty quickly. I was hoping for a powerful antidote to the rotten tripe coming out of the radio/TV and it just seemed pretty weak instead. I felt sickened. I will give it another chance later when less angry!

@HydraBooks @AaronBastani You're right, of course, twitter is usually the forum for displaying your latest confected emotional response to world events, but sometimes its more interesting when people aren't competing to be hot take edge lords.

@ToniScottSays @peta_ivy_ "Who are you to tell people how they should feel? You can speak for yourself and no-one else." Um, you might want to mention that to... the entirety of the UK media establishment right now?

During the 1980s, the queen tried to stop Princess Diana's work in HIV advocacy, telling her to do something "more pleasant." But Diana ignored her, instead using her platform to tackle stigma and offer comfort to terrified people sick with what was then a terminal illness.

@NathonC_05 @AaronBastani As for distinction between accounts, I think A does use his main account for his work as a media personality? I don't have a problem with him tweeting it - I have a problem that this type of thing is his only/main response as someone who claims to stand against media hegemony.

@NathonC_05 @AaronBastani Of course he can. But if the claim is 'media for a different politics', then that requires having the guts to explicitly take a stance against the prevailing narrative being churned out by the rest of the media right now. To me that seems absent here.

@HydraBooks @AaronBastani It’s his Twitter, if he wants to make a point about something which he finds interesting, he can. I personally find what he’s saying on this quite interesting as well

@AaronBastani Depressing that your instinctive response when the leader of a racist colonial power structure dies (+ the entirety of the UK media then goes into full state propaganda mode) ..is to make an obscure academic point which at first glance seems to boil down to 'wow such STABILITY'
