Both these series are about how awesome communism is. I’m losing my mind. They literally have never understood any piece of fiction

To be clear, I’m not being singled out: fully one third of Guardian & Observer staff are on either zero hours or sham ‘freelance’ contracts. The Guardian issued notice on all these this week. If you’re an employment lawyer, feel free to slide into my DMs!

The Guardian is cancelling my contract after 19 years continuous employment with no pay-off so totes happy to go to the Indie to continue my investigation into Evgeny’s dad, the ex-KGB spy.
The UK media: so many fine choices.

FEMINIST GIANT Daily Dose: 42 feministgiant.com/p/daily-do…

ALT Text: A feminist revolution targets patriarchy in the State, Street, and the Home because it recognizes that there is no liberation without sexual liberation, without gender liberation, without queer liberation. A feminist revolution dares to imagine liberation from the militarism of the State and from its echo in the conservatism of the Street and the Home.

X spy cop Andy Coles became Cambridgeshire Deputy Police & Crime Commissioner, currently president of Peterborough Conservatives.
A woman branded undercover cop Coles “an absolute liar” after he denied having sex with her while spying on her. She was 19.

Filmed over a century ago, a rare and fascinating look at the Cornish coast and its people. A beautiful film from 1916.

Just Stop Oil protesters got jailed for 4 and 5 years for planning to block roads. I assume now that every constabulary in the country is carrying out mass arrests accordingly.

The more I reflect on what happened in Amsterdam the stranger it seems. A racist team who have a reputation for hate speech come to Amsterdam during a genocide and engage in acts of racism and violence against the local population. They are accompanied by Mossad agents. All this happens under the increased success of Islamophobic Geert Wilders and the PVV. The media, not just in the Netherlands but in Europe and North America publish what looks like an Israeli press release using incendiary language about pogroms and Kristelnacht. Politicians around the world immediately and uncritically embraced this rhetoric and say nothing of pro-genocidal chants. They media mislabel on the ground journalism by Dutch photographer @iAnnetnl to minimise Israeli violence. They ignore evidence from other Dutch journalists like @OmeBender. Channels like Sky News even re-edit packages to maximise the narrative of antisemitism and minimise examples of anti-Arab racism. Dutch parliamentarians then wield propaganda by the Israeli diaspora affairs as if it constitutes evidence. Many media outlets still haven't corrected the record about what happened, from the BBC to WSJ and Sky. It's disturbing and sinister, and shouldn't be allowed to slide.

When a new generation of journalists (digital natives born amidst the decline of established media) look back at the last 72 hours it’ll be a photo journalist, a Sky News reporter & a 14 year old boy that they’ll laud as role models.

Another very important thread on Amsterdam incidents and FULL context to have in mind — such as FIFA evading its responsibilities by allowing Israel to continue being part of international competitions which has lead to a violent, racist and unsafe atmosphere in football.
pickwick retweeted
Apparently calling an obvious genocide what it is "cheapens antisemitism" but calling some football hooligans losing a fight THEY STARTED a fucking "pogrom" is measured and serious. Absolutely absurd, the entire western journalistic class deserves to lose their jobs.

In my first piece for @Mondoweiss, I look at the media spin and fabrications of what happened in Amsterdam and how this is an explicit example of how Israeli Jewish ethnosupremacist claims & violence against Arabs & Muslims - Palestinians - are justified.
