@EUPerspectives Everyone should be.

Should children under 13 be banned from social media?

@jonathanchait Do you ever think it's strange or depressing that you get paid for lying to the public or do you just look at the wage coming in and try not to think about it?

Universal health care is not a DSA position. It's a standard Democratic Party position. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/07/…

@NussRelson @RichardHanania It doesn't matter how good you make capitalism sound if people are actually experiencing it and rejecting it.

@RichardHanania Socialists cannot be separated from socialism intellectually, because they didn't arrive at socialism intellectually. They arrived at socialism because it *sounds good*. We need to make capitalism *sound good*.

The rise of socialism can’t be separated from conservatives no longer presenting an intellectual defense for capitalism. Fifteen years ago, conservatives would cite people like Thomas Sowell and Milton Friedman, explain why the Obama administration was creating moral hazards, etc. Today, that’s completely gone. You have postliberals and people like Vance who borrow from leftists in critiquing capitalism and saying that it’s failed. Trump does mercantilism and takes stakes in companies, beyond anything Obama did. So conservatives stop defending capitalism, and then get upset that socialism wins. You people are the ones who talk about “protecting jobs from foreign competition” as if that’s consistent with a belief in markets. The left is higher IQ, so can see the contradiction there. Nativism is just less principled and intellectually consistent socialism. The left takes the exact same assumptions and subtracts the nativism, and suddenly the right gets upset that they arrive at socialism.

@DaveThroup You are biased. Agreed?

@akmaciver When you say "we", do you just mean directors of PR firms?

Tell me we wouldn’t be better off if Blair was still PM, and I’ll call you a liar.

@wjamc85 @SkySportsPL Textbook example of how people use woke to just mean "not an arsehole".

@SkySportsPL What is this woke rubbish?! Stick to your own team.

@00Core00 @angryaboutbikes Lol. The equivalent of property taxes in the UK is council tax. The tenant (as the resident) is responsible for paying that and not the landlord.

@angryaboutbikes Did you check to see if your locality/city or whatever you call it, didn't also decide to jack up their tax rate?

My wife spent an entire year taking on extra work and smashing all her targets so that she could ask for a pay rise, they actually gave her one and then literally 2 days later our landlord put up our rent by more than the raise because he decided it was time to be paid more money

Insane moment

@Clichecounter2 @NicholasTyrone He supports Reform.

@NicholasTyrone You would prefer a pro-Putin and pro-Trump party over a pro-Ukraine and pro-Europe party?

It’s crap like this that makes so many normal people in Britain, many of whom aren’t even particularly right-wing at all, hope to God Reform buries Labour in the Makerfield by-election.

This belongs to all of us.

@politixintheuk The "Labour online community" seems like a very hostile and unwelcoming place. I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to achieve but the real-world results would suggest it's not going particularly well.

@owenjonesjourno The Gerasites, ffs. Absolute headbangers.

"Very dangerous in many ways". That's what Morgan McSweeney - Starmer's former chief of staff - wrote about me. I'm just a pussycat!
