Thank the gods we live a million miles away from the lesser orange one. I know everything they do over there has an impact on the rest of the world but I am very glad there's a lot of water between us. #AmericaIsLost. I really hope the UK government grows a spine (unlikely I know) and distances itself from the madness. I already feel ill but if I hear Starmer mention our "special relationship" I'll be 🤮🤮🤮 all over the place. We need to be back in the EU now more then ever. #AmericanPolitics

@druid The special relationship has only ever existed when the USA found it convenient for it to do so.

@druid make voices heard. Tell Starmer you're not interested in his AI bullshit.
Use the stupid petitions site at minimum.
Organise marches. Join groups. Try not to let those groups do the classic leftist schism bullshit. Put up posters. Carry stickers. Make sure your voice is heard.
Mainly: stop accommodating right wing fuckwits. Tell them they're wrong. Punch them if necessary.

@paul @druid the power of propaganda. Don’t forget who owns about all media outlets.
In 1925 fascism started in Italy with Mussolini as the strong leader.
In those days they only had radio, paperprint and movies to promote their ideas.
Look what they have now. History is going to be repeated, maybe even worse. A president that can’t form 2 sentences without a lie in it. That’s frightening.
Fighting wildfires by pumping oil in it? Mad

@YogiRon This morning I read that his initial speech was already littered with lies. How surprising.

@druid
Every one of our institutions failed us. Norms and "guardrails" not backed by laws and regulations were vulnerable to the decades of erosion by the right wing so a shameless authoritarian could break them like kindling, aided by SM algorithms feeding lies and propaganda.
Also, outlaw billionaires. There is no earthly reason for any one person to hoard that much goblin gold, and it magnifies their delusions and imagined grievances. Musk-proof absolutely everything.

@druid I would like to have your optimism. I see the open danger of fascists gaining more and more power in Europe, and they eat & meet with the ugly guys in Florida (and get money from them). Germany has early elections (extremists are a danger), France has an extremely instabile government, Austria get's the far-right into the government ... look at all the far-right leaders like Meloni, Orban ...
Perhaps you could better call Dr Who than we on the continent. Please, please, do it!

@druid Would love for the UK to rejoin EU. We need eachother more than ever! Eu is no utopia, but until we find something better it's our best chance. We need to unite. Especially with the right wing marching forward here as well.
