There were far-right demos in cities across the UK today, along with antiracist counter-protests. In this city we got there an hour earlier than the fash to surround the war memorial where they'd planned to meet, and refused to budge until every last one of them had given up and gone home.
It took about five hours of speeches, music, dancing and chanting to finally shatter the resolve of the last few remaining thugs, but we did it!

Remember the poster from yesterday? Here's the trailer for “In the Lost Lands”.
To be honest, it looks like typical Paul W. S. Anderson stuff. I'll give it a watch at home.
It's nice to see some of the compositing is as good as the poster. 🤭
Just wanted to thank all my close peeps (and everyone still hoofing it out) that are still making the Fediverse their home.
Special extra shout out to my instance host @jaz - he the team here at toot.wales have done an amazing job of offering a reliable and safe home.

@bri_seven Again this is indicative of Pig Empire attempts to change and narrow the definition of fascism every single waking moment since the Cold War started because if it isn't "funny moustache" and "the literal Nazi Party" you might get around to noticing Western society was incorporating a lot of fascist ideology and practices at home.
It's not just Snopes, it's the whole fucking capitalist/Western world doing this shit. For decades.
I'm back home.
It's been a long couple of days but I had LOADS of fun.
Never had that kind of experience before and now I can say that I have.
#TikTok ban and social media "safety" initiatives: I'm a survivor of CSA, multiple offenders.
90% of the abuse I experienced predated the WWW. If you think keeping kids off socials keeps them safe, I've got a bridge you might like.
This feels like Stranger Danger.2, polished up to reflect all the blame away from the fathers like mine and 65% of other victims whose abuse starts at home.
It's amazing how their answer to our pain is always to take away more of our power.
