Started feeling optimistic about stuff over the last few days so to ruin that I went on Twitter and checked the first Jeremy Corbyn tweet and saw all the vitriol. "Well," I say "I bet Boris is just getting just as badly reamed in his comments." Hahaha. Please lower me onto that medieval torture spike, arsehole first, and end the suffering that is existing through Brexit.

Twitter is unrepresentative and extremely easily gamed. It is also a platform for the far right by the far right. You don't need to take it too seriously except for the fact that all the papers take it seriously

But seriously I'd bet money that the Integrity Initiative is not the only entity running anti Corbyn accounts.

That's pretty much my concern - that's it's become so widespread and adopted in usage, especially so by far-right fringe groups and political figures, and it gets picked up on by the equally lovely press coverage. It's an awful platform for something like debate and discussion as the posts in their very nature come out like soundbites owing to the character limit. IDK. I back Jam Man but I wonder if this like how the Lemming at the back of the queue feels when I run out of Builders and they just march towards inescapable death.

Just report and block all of the obvious bots (any username with a bunch of random numbers on the end) and it looks much much better.

Then they back themselves into a corner where they can't go back on what they have done without looking like total wank stains and they have to release dumb arse statements to try and sweep it under the rug. They have been this way since Kennedy stepped down.

This was a good read, how the guardian went from adversarial investigative journalism to being yet another rag on the side of the security state: https://www.dailymaverick.co.za/article/2019-09-11-how-the-uk-security-services-neutralised-the-countrys-leading-liberal-newspaper/ They haven't been worth reading since greenwald and poitras left.

They're still called Teflon Tories for a reason but it's fun to watch him and the Tories squirm awkwardly at this shitshow with no material to deflect with.
