- Reposted by Dave RobinsonWOW. The Trump admin said they will review social media and deny immigration benefits to people saying antisemitic claims. They're even trying to deport people with green cards on alleged claims of antisemitism. Anyway, here's a tweet from an Afrikaner they flew here on Monday.

- I'd 100% recommend steering clear of the term zionism entirely. It's a loaded term due to it's splintered evolution from solely a religious ideology to also a political one, and I've seen so many people tripped up by it by bad faith actors. It's usually not necessary to points about Israel's conduct

- My entire adult life has been a series of Labour administrations amplifying rather than fighting false, hateful right wing narratives. Immigration, welfare, inequality, Brexit, austerity; each time they let their opponents chose the battleground and the terms of the fight, and the country loses.
