1. Woke up this afternoon to see countless Liberal Bourgeois around the world getting their knickers in a twist about what USA has been promoting in other countries around the world for generations, and insulting the great tradition of Historical Anarchism while they are at it.

2. Some more of the same nonsense
3. Same in the UK a few years ago
4. The USA has been promoting this kind of so-called "Anarchy" for decades!
This has nothing to do with Anarchism of course, which is a completely rational philosophical & political movement (despite worthy yet sometimes misguided actions of certain brave acolytes over the years)
5. Why will there never be a coup d’etat in Washington? … Because there is no American embassy there!
6.The Trauma of Latin America
7. US media support for coups
You can argue until the cows come home about US involvement in regime change, military juntas and coups, even the ones supported by the NY Times, for example

9. Worldwide since WW2

12. Between 1947 and 1989, the United States tried to change other nations’ governments 72 times
That’s a remarkable number. It includes 66 covert operations and six overt ones.

1. Updated Thread on:
A, Wuhan Seafood Market Positive Environmental Samples, B. Early Local Reports about Animals at the Market
C. CCP Censorship and Police harassment of local activists uploading censored news reports to GitHub.
The original thread was a mess!

2. CCP Censorship & Police harassment of local activists uploading censored news reports to GitHub.
It all started with a simple search query:
"market" "animal" on a github database:
https://t.co/q2HxuUuHKa
Only to find that it had been deleted on github due to CCP pressure!

3. Github is Censorship proof, right?
It does not get deleted! But..

https://t.co/ckzicj7NlE
Please remember these brave young activists for creating a permanent record of censored news from the early days while CCP rewrites history


4. What a shock!
But thanks to the very nature of GitHub, "forks" and "clones" had been made & saved.
The best one is here:

Obviously all in Chinese ;) but tks to Google Chrome we can right click translate to English & find archived scrubbed Chinese news


5. "This is an archive of in-depth reports and personal narratives on the COVID-19 outbreak in China"
Contains media reports, non-fictional works and personal narratives related to the 2020 coronavirus pneumonia.
Part of the archive is provided by netizens, I am grateful.

Handy guide for Dominic Raab and other Brexiteers, and for anyone keen to replace our EU trade with trade with the rest of the world on WTO terms...


You can't magic away the vast distances involved. Clue: we fly in only 1/192th of our trade compared to the amount that arrives via sea


But even if you invented a teleporter tomorrow, WTO terms are so bad, so stacked against us, that a no-deal Brexit will be a total economic disaster


And while the Brexiteers fantasise, real jobs are being lost, investments are drying up, companies are moving assets to the EU27 or redomiciling. All already happened and happening right now, not in some mythical


Of course, there are many, many myths that Brexiteers perpetuate that are total fiction. You've seen a couple of them already. The thread below busts a whole lot
"3 million people are estimated not to have official photo ID, with ethnic minorities more at risk". They will "have to contact their council to confirm their ID if they want to vote"

This is shameful legislation, that does nothing to tackle the problems with UK elections.THREAD


There is no evidence in-person voter fraud is a problem, and it wd be near-impossible to organise on an effective scale. Campaign finance violations, digital disinformation & manipulation of postal voting are bigger issues, but these are crimes of the powerful, not the powerless.

In a democracy, anything that makes it harder to vote - in particular, anything that disadvantages one group of voters - should face an extremely high bar. Compulsory voter ID takes a hammer to 3 million legitimate voters (disproportionately poor & BAME) to crack an imaginary nut

If the government is concerned about the purity of elections, it should reflect on its own conduct. In 2019 it circulated doctored news footage of an opponent, disguised its twitter feed as a fake fact-checking site, and ran adverts so dishonest that even Facebook took them down.

Britain's electoral law largely predates the internet. There is little serious regulation of online campaigning or the cash that pays for it. That allows unscrupulous campaigners to ignore much of the legal framework erected since the C19th to guard against electoral misconduct.
