Adolf Hitler, a CONVICTED FELON, rose to power as Chancellor of Germany in 1933. He cleverly positioned himself as the voice of the โ€œcommon man,โ€ railing against the elites and the establishment. To solidify his base, Hitler masterfully scapegoated minorities for the nationโ€™s problems, exploiting societal divisions with an โ€œus vs. themโ€ narrative. Itโ€™s almost as if dividing people and stoking anger can serve a political agendaโ€”who wouldโ€™ve guessed? Once in power, he wasted no time dismantling democratic institutions. Loyalty wasnโ€™t just encouraged; it was demanded. Opponents? Silenced. Media that dared to question him? Vilified as โ€œthe enemy,โ€ naturally. But hey, history is just history, right? Itโ€™s not like anyone would fall for something like that again.

I still marvel today at how easily voters were duped by pro-Brexit propaganda like: We hold all the cards, or They need us more than we need them, or There are no downsides, only upsides. As if the EU were our colony, or composed of primitive, unsophisticated economies. 1

This from todayโ€™s i. If there was another referendum, we would start the process of rejoining, even if ALL the โ€˜donโ€™t knowsโ€™ and โ€˜refused to answerโ€™ were to vote Stay Out. Are you listening @Keir_Starmer?

Had enough of this hellsite. I will still pop by occasionally to catch up on those I find interesting/amusing/informative but no desire to have my brain polluted by the r/w bollox pushed by Putinโ€™s sponsored Space Karen. @ducatichappie.bsky.social

One of the things I love about Italy is its sheer class. I was reminded of that at 3 am today as I arose from my slumbers to tell a couple copulating against the wall outside the door of our apartment to โ€œFUCK OFFโ€. They did.

Journalists are meant to speak truth to power. That's our job. But what do you do when that power is your own news org? This thread (professional suicide note?) is about @guardian & @ObserverUK's future. Because it turns out you canโ€™t believe everything you read on a poster.. 1/

V interesting thread on the hard choices and bad decisions surrounding HS2:
It seems HS2 is going to Euston. Big cheers from the rail crowd. But thereโ€™s a much bigger question that hasnโ€™t been answered yet. And it might be the most important question in 100 years of UK railway history.๐Ÿงต telegraph.co.uk/business/202โ€ฆ
