Oh no! A working class lad worked hard, was smart enough to purchase a property in London and make some money! The AUDACITY!! That kind of money making is only for private school lads! Working class lads MUST stay poor. Forever.

Steven Bartlett says a few glasses of wine ruined the next 3 days of his life “It's one of those areas where you don't understand the hidden cost until you really give it up for a while. I stopped drinking at 30 years old. I'm now 33. When I was 31, I thought, I'll have a drink again because now I could really A/B test it. I had a year of not drinking, decided to have a drink again” “It ruined three days of my life. I had a couple of glasses of wine, didn't get drunk. It ruined three days of my life because of the domino effect it caused” “I got worse sleep that night, and then because I got worse sleep that night, I ate more poorly the next day because my dopamine system or whatever, the cortisol system was all messed up. I podcasted worse. I didn't go to the gym that day or the day after because I felt really bad. I then slept worse, and I could track all of this on my Whoop”

The empire's war on activism and journalism continues to escalate as the Trump administration targets Hasan Piker and Medea Benjamin for the crime of bringing humanitarian aid to Cuba. This is yet another act of aggression in the same onslaught that has seen inconvenient truth-telling and expressions of moral clarity attacked and undermined throughout the western world at every juncture in recent years. It is not separate from the persecution of Julian Assange for exposing US war crimes. It is not separate from the steadily increasing escalations of internet censorship we've seen in the wake of Gaza, Ukraine, Covid, January 6, the 2016 US presidential election, and any other excuse the imperial narrative managers could find. It is not separate from the Trump administration's efforts to deport non-citizens for criticizing the state of Israel. It is not separate from the efforts to stomp out pro-Palestine protests and university campus demonstrations. It is not separate from the arrests of activists in the UK on terrorism charges for saying the words "I support Palestine Action". It is not separate from activists facing criminal charges for saying "From the river to the sea" in parts of Australia and Germany. It is not separate from imperial efforts to crack down on BDS activism and outlaw boycotts of Israeli products. It is not separate from Israel's ban on foreign press from entering Gaza, nor is it separate from Israel's systematic extermination of Palestinian journalists within Gaza. It is not separate from the artificially manufactured hysteria about "antisemitism" in western society and the efforts of western governments to silence criticism of Israel in the name of protecting Jews. It is not separate from Israel's massive increase in its hasbara budget this year and the armies of paid trolls we've seen swarming online discourse. It is not separate from the nonstop barrage of imperial propaganda we see every day from the plutocratic press justifying every war and slandering every dissident. It is not separate from the way imperial oligarchs like Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk and Larry Ellison buy up news outlets like The Washington Post and CBS and social media platforms like TikTok and Twitter in order to manipulate the way the public thinks, acts, and votes. It is not separate from the way tech platforms have been manipulating algorithms to hide dissident sources of information from the public and using bogus "fact checking" firms to suppress unauthorized facts. It is not separate from government secrecy measures which forbid the public from knowing what their rulers are doing, and which aggressively punish anyone who tries to reveal inconvenient facts. The empire is waging a relentless war on intellectual clarity and on moral clarity, because truth and morality are its enemies. They do not want us to have unobstructed vision, lucid minds, functioning empathy centers and well-formed consciences, because if we did, we would instantly dismantle the empire brick by brick. This is why they go after anyone who tries to expand the consciousness of western society using activism and journalism. In an empire built on lies and fueled by human blood, telling the truth is seen as treason and doing the right thing is seen as insurrection. The only sane response to such a dystopian situation is to join in the revolution. Help spread unauthorized ideas and information. Take action to spread awareness of the abusive nature of the empire. They're trying to keep it all in the dark, so we need to bring it all into the light. They wouldn't be fighting so hard to suppress truth and compassion if it didn't present an immediate existential threat to their power structure.
