ukpol, covid, UK headlines, propaganda 

let's be fucking real: the Tories have murdered people through negligence to boost the economy (and it didn't even work) -- they've outsourced covid contracts to their friends so that they can sap even more money out of public funds while things like test & trace haven't worked and they've enriched themselves by sacrificing people's lives. they're a bunch of banal, soulless kleptocrats. calling them incompetent would be too much of a compliment, that would imply they're at least trying to keep people alive.

Diary of a Vague Year #205

"...It seems to me horrific that top [UK] scientists were able to put forward their proposals to enact mass killing without being challenged, either on ethical or biological grounds. If you want to find out why or how this government has been lax, chaotic, incompetent and cruel in its approach to Covid-19, it starts here..."

Only two industries call people “users”: surveillance capitalists and drug dealers.

“User” is an othering. It dehumanises the person; making it easier for us to profile, manipulate, and monetise them.

(In Small Tech, we do not call people “users”; we call people “people.”)

The Birdsite has many dubious spectacles, but one that is much underrated is that of utterly ghastly, vile people making all the proper political noises.

Left wing in word, right wing in deed. Beware such people.
