A genocide in Gaza and the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank seem to me to have presaged this development more directly than the views of 1970s Marxists.

The SNP have teamed up with the Tories and Lib Dems. They've voted down a Green motion which would have brought in a moratorium against new hyperscale AI data centres in Scotland. Instead they've chosen to muddy the water, leaving confusion when our communities need certainty.
Breaking. SNP, Tories and Lib Dems block Green pause on data centres.

The funniest thing about this is that the first plane hit the towers at 1:46 pm Glasgow time, which means that eve’s school had advance notice of the attacks, but chose not to warn the US government.

the 2001 Live account is grim, sorry they wilfully picked 1997 to begin the account knowing they’d get here, and whilst they claimed they’d treat 9/11 with respect and wouldn’t foreshadow, we got these distasteful ironic hindsight tweets written like a time travelling voyeur

Always curious that the British right are just outrageously antisemitic and basically nobody cares.

🤔 👇 Perhaps as a “proud British Jew” Ed forgot that the Torah explicitly bans the consumption of pork for all Jewish people. Or perhaps he’s not always a proud Jew, British or otherwise…
