And then of course there's @nojusticemtg.bsky.social the literal single voice in the space of UK Political Commentary streaming enduring the mad world of media going "But Corbyn" as the "scandal" they reference is directly shown to have been factional self-sabotage

Glad PoliticsJoe is covering this with Peter Oborne further craziness that a TORY should have principles that Labour don't. A TORY! The cartoonishly evil people who celebrated crushing Corbyn and the peasants even talking about Gaza.

Agree. For me it's the reactionary anti-tech stuff because of "tech bros" basically ceeding the frame of "Oh these are the smart guys tech is bad now" and it's structural because moral intelligent people are not in public view.

Insanity. I just don't get how they think Ethnosupremacy by Nazis = Bad
By American KKK = Bad
By Afrikaans = Bad
By Isrealis = Completely different and just not the same thing, you don't understand.

A) If you're right wing your bigotry is open and honest baked in to the statement "I have right wing politics"...
B) Bigotry is just a political leaning so only "the left" bigots need addressing...
C) Just to test if they can be shamed to stop point A being highlighted of course

What a bizarre world we live in where the religious institutions could get back to talking morality over secular society after *checks all of history* that stuff.

Yeah and McSweeney will feel really bad from the Blair Institute or BBC or public speaker role he has while Streeting moves to be the next PM.
I am so so close to being a complete nihilist while also being super optimistic with the Green Party. Kind of exhausting.

Damn the whole "Ivory tower" line the right push really does play out in social media. Some people really are out of touch with people who work or are apolitial.

Meta- level of commenting on whether the good thing is transformative enough to be commodified is so counterproductive and beyond that, with the current political and media climate, whiplash inducing.

Yeah for me policial commentary should be as lazy, repetitive and accessible as possible. The non-apolitical tend to have chosen their sides and the public overwhelmingly time poor are the ones that need that commentary the rest is intellectual masterbation. Which is also fine... but then the meta

I think it's a discourse worth having because I keep hitting up against it and it seems so counter to the general philosophy of left wing advocacy of communal equality and such. Like fully bought into capitalism realism at the niche element of the state enforcing commodity speech.

Ah good extra info even without the author saying that I keep running up against left wing people arguing "IP copyright ring-fencing" and "plagiarism" and thinking "oh yeah "Got to keep that left wing commentary with a proper prominence an kudos chain"

Does your podcast have any episodes going over this sort of stuff from the perspective of the maddening factor of "Who cares?". Like where the logical principle of a thing falls flat on its face in the utilitarian calculus of context? "2 people arguing for a social good WAIT ONE DID IT FIRST"

There is no original thought, every moment spent by a human caring about the "prominence trail" of words is actively a disservice to the reality we live.

Hot take(s) in a world where people are being carpet bombed:

There is no plagiarism in politics commentary.

Creatives getting angry about AI "copyright IP" are privileged as fuck and art unfortunately is the ultimate market where the libertarians are right about voting with your money.

I'm glad the space is seemingly moving away from pure ragebait active immorality with Destiny destroying all discourse for the sake of kicking up clicks the panels you're on are almost worth engaging with were it not for the Hutch bad faith stuff.

I'm from STEM Physics side of things where the "principles" overrode everything and politics was the "messy imprecise stuff". I think I've gone through it more and the biggest issue is heuristic vs exact. Politics is vibes no matter how principled and coherent you are. But diversity of tactics.

Glad to see there are people like you in the American lib streaming zone that are going "Including if we have to break on ICE about socialists" while others are revealing the "scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds" in real time. Looking forward to your conclusions when 2028 comes round.

UK Corruption Timeline (2017-2025) - YouTube Pretty succinct timeline of the corruption of Labour and why the UK moved from Left vs Right to the American Centre-Right vs Actual Pro-Fascist. It is not be...

If people are bored or confused about the problems of "Labour" they're literally all down to like 12 right wing ghouls. Labour could have been a decent party but they are internally sabotaged NOT outvoted. We're on our way to American style minority opinion rule

So the corruption has been a long time running. It's crazy that people are playing dumb in the CORE of politics and media. They are handing a narrative to UK QAnon types. They are CLINGING to power in the exact same way of Clinton 2016 and Biden 2024. #Mandleson #Starmer

The worst people go off to 4chan/Kiwifarms there are dark net forums for the worst people. If public participation get's child-proofed to pre-internet age where I get tone policed on my views... GOOD. If when I post an AI goes "too harsh" I personally wish my brain would be so anti-ragebaitable!

I hope the drama about him supporting the repeal of Section 230 isn't too big. I have seen a lot of the American Journalists have been all "But Mah Free Speech" even left wing ones. But it is literally the only way we stop the hyper investment in social media. There are already some limits

Unforgivable as someone on the left your view is 2% away from mine and so we must break ties. haha. Yeah for me I have no faith institutions can stop stuff when it's literally Reform that are pushing the advantage. It seems we're destined for 2016 America. :'(
