I’m an anthropologist, sometimes I occupy things & such.

I see anarchism as something you do not an identity...

and that’s the official numbers: remember, pollsters only call people with land lines and assume many less young people will be voting than 2017 despite record youth registration https://t.co/WuSEtmZixE

well this explains a lot: weighting of the polls is insane. Of Opinium’s sample 46% voted Tory in 2017, 36% voted Labour. In fact the 2017 split was 42/40. They are off by 8 points, which when factored in suggests the Tories have a 1-2% lead. https://t.co/Y5AbXHo3IW

Wait a minute with c 66 million people that’s …almost 1 out of every 220 people in the country registered to vote on one day alone! https://t.co/Gb1iWSY7er

So is there a way to find out who was the edito at BBC who took out the audience laughing at Johnson and substituted a track of them cheering instead? Or is the identity of such people an official state secret? #bbcqt

exactly. We need a campaign like that fellow who put out the sign about his life: WHAT LIFE IS REALLY LIKE. Part of the “Bring Back Common Decency” campaign https://t.co/B1o1KgEQOc

this guy thinks £80k/year is below average income? (In fact the median is 24k and the mean 37k). Presumably he think he’s just getting by. My question: how did we create a bubble where professional-managerial types simply have no conception how most people live? https://t.co/WwBCwJk60b

meanwhile, the complete lack of any published polls seems to rather imply that all the ones they do have put Corbyn in first or second place and way ahead of Johnson and Swinson

You can tell Corbyn did spectacularly well in #bbcqt because the Guardian columnists’ assessment (except for Owen Jones) are scientifically trying not to mention him at all – “if you can’t think of anything mean to say…” https://t.co/cBW5OpGWrh

when Corbyn becomes PM, I think his first speech should be an official apology to the world on behalf of England for capitalism. (“Well, it seemed like a good idea at the time.”)

not to make that mistake again. Anticipate: 1. false scandals created vs LP, real Tory scandals ignored (as w/ antisemitism now), 2. ignoring LP manifesto or allowing lies about it to go uncorrected, 3. manipulated polls to give sense of hopelessness … What else? 2/

seems the British media, & especially BBC, decided they made a terrible mistake in 2017 obeying the laws about equal time during a political campaign; the absence of continuous anti-Corbyn propaganda allowed him to close a 20-point gap in a matter of weeks. They are determined 1/

oh now I do think Johnson will lose. He’s now officially got his bad food moment. That’s key. Corbyn has successfully eaten everything put in front of him. https://t.co/eLZCBmxwSV

We genuinely believe you can’t understand the rise of fascism in Germany and across Europe now without understanding the extraordinary unacknowledged social violence that was directed at so many in the east after 1989 #YesWomen https://t.co/0vWnxxTN6V

amidst the titanic images of “great men” and great political events, was the tiny projection of five women saying “Never Mind Us” #YesWomen https://t.co/eNVy5lxkfn

these women have been organising & trying to win back their rights, insisting divorce is not a crime, for 30 years, even the UN supports them, but they got the cold shoulder from every side of the German political establishment #YesWomen https://t.co/SMjfrP3zVL

on the 30th Anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall, the #YesWomen collective carried out an action at Alexanderplatz in honour of the originally 900k women in the former GDR ripped off of their pensions because they were divorced https://t.co/E2Zu0vnOUd

Almost every one of these Guardian commentators openly states they think there should be MORE brainlessly repeating lies or meaningless sound bytes no matter what one is asked, & MORE attacking one’s opponent instead of emphasising a positive message. https://t.co/DbbHKnDIAa

Finally as a Jewish person, I’m furious at those who will do & say absolutely anything to stop any sense that the ball could roll significantly in the other direction – the end result will be the rise of actual fascists who actually do want to kill me & thatscwhats happening 4/

Just imagine what’d happen if a major European economy started deprivatizing & experimenting with new forms of ownership. It would have huge effects on E’rn Germany & Slovakia that’s clear. It often seems this is precisely what the Polly Toynbees of the world want to prevent 3/

It just makes me reflect how deeply catastrophically destructive the Guardian/BBC/”centrists” mainstream in the UK are, on a world historical scale. A victory for the Labour left would instantly change political horizons across the world. 2/

I spent the last weekend in Berlin, this one in Bratislava. The one thing it really brought home to me is how obsessed everyone was with the inevitable rise of fascism specifically owing to the lack of a compelling youth vision from the left. 1/

Yet another letter to the Guardian from prominent cultural and activist figures that the Guardian wouldn’t run (since it points of Corbyn is an anti-racist and not a bit Antisemitic) https://t.co/UnUiVAtcmn

wow so it turns out the presiding magistrate who made the decision to keep Assange under abusive conditions, etc, is married to a Lord who gets lots of money from Erdogan & his son-in-law (the one who traded oil with ISIS), & other shady business Wikileaks had exposed https://t.co/xskZlGJ1SD
