Generally speaking, it's easy to differentiate the clout-chasing, performative activists who desperately want to be *seen* "doing good", from the real deal who do it just because they want to do good. The latter wear masks. #intersectionality #AntiAbleism #MaskUp #CovidIsNotOver
@MediaActivist Did you notice that part of the Crime and Policing Bill that was being debated yesterday was to outlaw the wearing of masks at protests?
@fkamiah17 Yeah, mask bans, withdrawing vaccinations, cuts to social security for Disabled people - all part of a denialist approach and, dare I say, eugenics as well. If they erase a pandemic and even erase the people most affected by it, they can continue their morally bankrupt economic system much easier.
@MediaActivist Aye. Withdrawing vaccinations? Are they stopping the Covid top ups as well?
Diane Abbott and others were locked out of the PLP meeting about the welfare cuts last night, according to her post. No surprise there. Just spotted this too. Judging by the font it's from a Graun article.
Starmer's a nasty piece of work.
@fkamiah17 He truly is grotesque.
@fkamiah17@syzito.xyz@MediaActivist I honestly think he's worse than Spaffer.
@fkamiah17 I have said that for a long time. I much prefer my enemy to tell me they think I'm a "lefty tosser" rather than a wolf in sheep's clothing careerist who claims "progressive" policies as his own until he gains more power, then dumps them each time. That's much worse.
@MediaActivist I have to hold my hand up here and say I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt when he first got elected but it didn't last. And I'm endlessly ashamed that I didn't see through it sooner.
I've never given much of a shit about being called names, political or otherwise.
@fkamiah17 Corbyn's rather endearing yet naive faith in democracy in an undemocratic system meant that (as with Brexit) he adhered to standards his rivals never would, and so his refusal to outright endorse Rebecca Long-Bailey left the door open for Starmer (who received less votes than "no one") to grab power, which is his favourite thing.
