A tweet from the Daily Mail with a headline saying "Four biblical signs the world has entered the end of days as US bombs Iran
This perfectly illustrates my point that the British tabloids are aiming at a US audience. There like 5 people in the UK who think about this. But it is huge among US evangelicals.
British politicians need to ignore UK tabloids, as UK tabloids are talking to an audience in the US for clicks.

This is so accurate in many ways, but I would add that the true animating core of the american volk is both shopping and an unwarranted feeling of superiority (towards racialised people at home and abroad) arising from a deep sense of inferiority.

Once again I am duty bound to point out that in 15 years of living in the US working in media I never once heard a single person, media outlet, consumer, or rando in the bar use the term 'Special Relationship'. It's the "I have a girlfriend but she goes to another school" of international relations.

A German court has ruled that it is legal to state that the man who runs the MΓΌller (Rice) empire is a supporter of the far-right AfD. MΓΌller repeatedly denied it, which says everything about how bad he knew that association could be for his business. I hope the boycotts intensify.
