I will not celebrate violence. I will not celebrate murder. It’s wrong.

I’m sure he loved his wife. He loved his church. He loved his kids.

But this very same man had no issue with throwing men with no criminal records in horrific south american prisons. Men who simply wanted a better life.

He had no issue with spreading lies about election results, even if the result was violence.

He had no issue with lying about Haitians eating pets, even if they received countless death threats.

He believed Canadian gun laws were silly, any angry man should be able to easily purchase guns.

I don’t want to sound like a horrible monster, but it’s hard for me to feel empathy.

Peter Thiel signed a massive contract with the NHS

But most UK hospitals say it’s totally useless:

Palantir, co-founded by billionaire and Trump donor Peter Thiel—who once claimed the NHS “makes people sick”—is known for its secretive operations and controversial clients.

Now, nearly 18 months after the Palantir NHS contract was signed, Democracy for Sale can reveal that many English hospitals have a different, unexpected objection: Palantir’s software simply isn’t good enough.

Leeds Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust was even more blunt, telling NHS England in a private letter that adopting some of the tools on Palantir’s platform would lead it to “lose functionality rather than gain it.”

I’m a Foreigner. I clearly see corruption.

This is money stolen from the NHS. These people robbed the NHS.

The fact many Britons aren’t angry and in the streets absolutely infuriates me.

People should be literally showing up at the homes of Boris Johnson and Dominic Cumming. People should be SCREAMING on them. These scumbags should be terrified. I understand the British aren’t culturally the French, but still : /

There is absolutely no evidence that speed cameras are “tax grabs”. This is a lie that just keeps getting repeated.

New York is the city with the most speed cameras in North America.

• Budget of NYC ? $115 billion dollars. (1)

• Revenue of NYC speed cameras ? $222 million dollars (2)

Now let’s do some math.

• 222,000,000 /115,000,000,000 = 0,19304

Speeding tickets are 0.19% of New York’s revenue.

If you drive above the speed limit and get a ticket, you aren’t a victim. You will get over it.

Not enough attention is paid to the pain and suffering of the real victims:

Fox News basically owns the US Republican Party.

JD Vance knows it. He flew all the way to Montana to meet with Murdochs and senior Fox News executives.

This man has done an absolutely astonishing amount of damage to Australian democracy.

He has also damaged democracy in the United Kingdom and the United States. For decades, his medias have promoted climate change denialism, anti-union propaganda, and the most astonishing lies.

I still remember the headline of The Sun right before the UK referendum on European Union membership:

He is nothing less than a vicious criminal:

Shame on Australia for producing such a piece of shit.

He wouldn’t have the power he has today without ordinary Australians using his medias as a source of information.

Please financially support media alternatives.

No offense to the wonderful British people, but a lot of your press is trash.

• The Sun ? Trash.

• The Daily Mail. Largely non-sense.

• The Telegraph ? Official newspaper of the Tory Party. Used to employ Boris Johnson. He was lavishly paid to publish non-sense about the EU.

• The Independent ? Now owned by Saudi Arabia and a Russian mobster.

• The Times ? Owned by Rupert Murdoch’s News of the World. The CEO is Rebekka Brooks, former editor of News of the World. She is an actual criminal.

• The Economist ? The current chairman Paul Deighton, a friend of David Cameron. He is a Tory Lawmaker (House of Lords) that was in charge of Covid PPE contracts. According to the New York Times, Deighton gave huge contracts to companies he owned.

The only two UK papers that I actually admire are The Financial Times and The Guardian.

I’m sure there are wonderful local newspapers in Wales, Scotland, and major cities, but overall the situation looks quiet grim.
