Hey @LouisTheroux! Remember me? We were pretty good friends but then they destroyed my career and you stood by and watched. Anyways, don't you think it's somewhat hypocritical for @amnesty to complain about the Manosphere when they went to court to argue women aren't protected in UK law?
Amnesty UK@AmnestyUK
Watching Into the Manosphere, it’s easy to see it as collection of individuals sharing hateful views. But that framing is exactly what the people interviewed want. When we see them as isolated trolls, we miss the bigger picture. The influencers targeting women’s autonomy are not alone. There is coordinated movement investing in rolling back women’s rights. Amnesty research uncovered 65+ UK anti-rights groups, 32 of which spent £106 million between 2019-2023. This is a well-funded attack. The Alliance Defending Freedom used the US courts to dismantle Roe v. Wade. Emboldened by their wins in the US, they are now importing those strategies to roll back freedoms in the UK. The Alliance Defending Freedom increased its spending in the UK by 187% between 2019 and 2023, for a total of £3.9 million. They have their sight on women’s rights. The profit-seeking manosphere gets rich from young men’s disenfranchisement. They blame women and feminism for the issues young men face. Meanwhile, the anti-rights movement invests millions of pounds to make changes through policy. Their goal is to rewrite who deserves dignity and freedom. Watching Louis Theroux's Into the Manosphere, it’s easy to see it as collection of individuals sharing hateful views. This is not just hate. It is an industry. But we know even the most organised money can’t win against organised people. The fightback is now.

@DanTalks1 All European governments and the UK are terrified of the Muslims in their own countries.
Absolutely terrified.

Watching the "British right" completely melt down and simp for Kier Starmer over Iran and insisting "This isn't our fight, we're not dying for Israel" cope third world propaganda lines has been one of the saddest things to me.
The nation which perfected geo-strategy and naval power projection and dominance, the nation that produced Lord Nelson, has been mind raped by ahmed, firas and muhammad. It has been consumed by the dumbest third world propaganda imaginable.

@MarcherReborn I don't think it's poverty.
It's because there are zero consequences. Everyone loves free stuff.

@KeruboSk You're talking backwards science.
People who want to lose weight and do so immediately on a GLP1 will experience a reduction in anxiety and depression because of the fast weight loss which they so desired.
That's all it is.
It has nothing to do with the drug itself.
English
Ozempic was designed for diabetes. Then it became the biggest weight loss drug in history.
Now a massive new study shows it also significantly reduces depression, anxiety, and addiction risk.
One drug. Three completely different conditions. Science is barely keeping up with what GLP-1s are doing
The study found that people taking semaglutide (the active ingredient in Ozempic and Wegovy) saw major drops in depression and anxiety alongside the weight loss effects everyone already knew about.
It also showed reduced risk of substance use disorders.
A weight loss drug that may help treat addiction. Nobody predicted that.

@ajsteelshow European leaders are terrified of the Muslims in their own countries, that's why.
English
We Americans are surprised & deeply disappointed because so many of our European "allies" whom we saved from the Nazis and the Communists, won't lift a finger to help in the war against Islamic Iran.
But has it occurred to any of us that they may actually be on the side of Iran?

Reducing speed limits to 55mph and forcing people to retake their driving test every 5 years would be an assault on autonomy and individual freedom.
This isn’t about climate change, the environment or road safety (we have some of the safest roads in the world).
Ultimately, Polanski and the Greens want to replace freedom as the organising principle of our society. It’s about the imposition, through social engineering, of a pre-modern vision for how people should live - one that denies the reality of trade-offs and plural values. It is a vision that Dale Vince is very clear about when he says in his book “Manifesto” that “modern life is the cause of so many problems”.
The rise of this kind of idealised thinking in our politics - both left and right - is both regressive and very dangerous. The 20th century shows that we are playing with fire.

I have a strong distaste for the class war and reverse snobbery that is so prevalent in the UK - but Rory Stewart is a classic example of someone who mistakes his accent for ability, and confidence with competence. An absolute half wit.
