What Republicans really mean when they blame 'DEI' | Mehdi Hasan Referencing DEI is the new rightwing abstraction deployed by Republicans to conceal their anti-Black racism

“Today, DEI has become the new N-word; the new rightwing abstraction deployed by Republicans to conceal their anti-Black racism.”

My latest for the Guardian, in which I cite Lee Atwater, and bring lots of receipts.

Sorry, but it has to be said:

Keir Starmer says Kemi Badenoch in eight years as an MP never mentioned grooming gangs in the House of Commons - not once - even when she was children’s minister

Badenoch insists she has raised the issue “in speeches” but is unable to deny the charge #pmqs

There are 3.4 million girls 14 and under in England.

Elon Musk just wrote that 1 out of every 13 such girls is right now being “systematically raped by migrant gangs.”

The man has gone utterly insane. He’s a sociopath. His latest post is—unambiguously—neo-Nazi rhetoric intended to incite violence.

If only there’d been some sort of clue that Musk was supremely comfortable with racist grifters, conspiracy theories & liars…

(Good scoop, though.)

I’ve wondered why super-rich owners keep pushing right-wing bias in their papers, since they no longer reflect or drive public opinion (if they did, the Tories would have won the last election). I think it’s that they’re still paid attention by MPs/journos/BBC. And maybe they’re a comfort blanket

The Brexit backlash – does it signal a progressive future? Starmer fears ‘betraying Brexit’. Yet with polls showing a majority for moving closer to Europe, can the progressive majority find its voice?

“Brexit made the UK an early victim of this reactionary politics which, instead of making this country great again, has already made it poorer and lonelier. Who knows what further damage may be awaiting our younger generations.”

I want to thank Elon Musk for attacking Wikipedia for being a part of the internet he can't currently control. It reminded me to donate to support Wikipedia, the best remaining thing about the internet. You can donate here: donate.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?...
