L'obscenitat by Margarita Robles. #Orwellwasright @CentreDelas @lafedecat

Anyone else watch the movie "Orwell 2+2 = 5" yet?

I read 1984 about 40 years ago, so I had forgotten how prescient so much of it is. Think I'll go back and reread it.

Once you have created a post-truth society where there are no facts, no baseline, no shared reality other than the one that can be made up on the spot to suit those in power, then you can tell big lies just as easily as you can tell little lies. He was writing that book in the late 1940s, but the authoritarian playbook is timeless.

> Fascists erase violent history for one main reason—to repeat that history

This is why the 'right to archive' trumps both copyright and the 'right to be forgotten'. If it doesn't, we're enabling fascists to use copyright and right to be forgotten trolling to push inconvenient truths down the Memory Hole.

I'm old enough to remember when we Americans thought we had free speech & shit like this was the purview of dystopian scifi & not government mandates.

California Supreme Court has ruled: If you catch Covid from work and then a family member dies from it, you can’t sue your employer.

They said too many employers have disregarded safety protocols.

Too many companies broke the law.

Too many people didn’t do the right thing.

Apparently, expecting them to do the right thing posed an unreasonable burden on them

Not My King: a crime to say it

The Tory’s #Fascist Kingdom

Protest organisers at King Charles' coronation have been arrested, placards confiscated

The protest was legal agreed with police, but organisers were arrested on arrival

Don't electronically tag innocent people for attending protests

The Government’s new Public Order Bill would allow police to put innocent people on electronic ankle tags and ban them from attending marches and demonstrations.

Campaigners and people who want to attend a protest need not have ever committed any offence in order to be given a so-called “protest banning order” by the police.

Under this new anti-protest law, the police will be given powers to:

• Monitor campaigners using electronic GPS tags
• Restrict their internet activities
• Prevent them from attending protests

These are some of the most disturbing and anti-democratic police powers introduced in the UK for decades.

These extreme police powers would be controversial in Russia and China – we cannot allow them in a democratic country like the UK. If thousands of us sign this petition, we can make Priti Patel drop these dangerous new powers.
