Lindsey Graham was one of the main subjects of a @TheAtlantic cover story I wrote in 2020, on why people collaborate with regimes they know are immoral. Here's a gift link:

Please read this. It's literally been 8 years in the writing.
The first wave of tech disruption of democracy 2016-2024 is over. What starts now is something much, much worse: the age of information chaos.

Nigel Farage is the son of a stockbroker who went to Dulwich College before becoming an investment banker himself.
He owns 5 homes and has spent most his adult life working as a politician, first as an MEP and now as an MP.
He is the establishment.

"The first step in liquidating a people is to erase its memory. Destroy its books, its culture, its history. Then have someone write new books, manufacture a new culture, invent a new history. Before long the nation will begin to forget what it is and what it was.”

This archaic pantomime is well past its expiry date.
Zero grace, total shamelessness, and a brutal internal ruthlessness.
"Duty" is just code for PR management. They protect their wealth like a corporate cartel.
We are living in 2026, not 1886, and we urgently need a different conversation. #AbolishTheMonarchy

The monarchy spent generations terrorising us into accepting their rule. George Monbiot on how the royals intimidate us. #AbolishTheMonarchy

The UK isn't a fairy tale, and King Charles certainly isn't Cinderella.
It is time this charade was over, we have 200,000 homeless people, we don't need a billionaire King and his golden coach.

We pay for the renovations. Then we give them half a billion pounds annually. Then we're not even allowed to visit Buckingham Palace year-round. Now they won't even live there.
Are you starting to see the royal finance scam yet? #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy
The King and Queen will never live at Buckingham Palace, it has been announced, confirming the first change to the monarch’s official residence in nearly 200 years.

Prince William diagnosing homelessness as “systemic failure”? Adorable.
The man is the system incarnate, born into palaces, privilege, and taxpayer-funded luxury, yet somehow oblivious he’s not critiquing it, he is it.
Peak royal self-awareness.

Charles and William were part of a cover-up to help Andrew dodge accountability. They're all complicit - the royal family is a rotten institution. #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy #Epstein

"They've silenced her.
"This is an attempt to punish someone who spoke the truth."
The "bizarre" moment @maitlis is forced to ask Facebook whistleblower Sarah Wynn-Williams to leave the studio.

👀 Activists have revealed a 'Cut the Half Billion Royal Budget' banner in view of the royals at the Holyroodhouse Royal Garden Party! It's time the government stopped bankrolling the royals. #AbolishTheMonarchy

Prince William owns 129,000 acres of land and over 600 residential properties alongside 700 farms. He also owns hundreds of industrial properties.
He also has 3 private residences alongside access to all royal residences.
System failure indeed.
Prince William: Homelessness is a 'systemic failure'

🚨🚨 Charles has been asked by protestors, 'What did you know about Andrew?' as he entered the Order of the Thistle ceremony in Edinburgh! We won't let the royals dodge accountability. #NotMyKing #AbolishTheMonarchy #Epstein

Prince Andrew. The class system. It's all connected. @Otto_English and @narindertweets on the monarchy. #AbolishTheMonarchy

Take this in. Step by step. Phrase by phrase. Word by word.
"Controlamos entre el 60%-70% de la Franja de Gaza, estamos destruyendo toda su estructura, todo el mundo sabe lo que esto significa. Gaza se quedará en ruinas y los habitantes tendrán que migrar porque alli no habrá nada donde vivir en las próximas décadas".
Bezalel Smotrich, ministro de Finanzas de "Israel", habla orgulloso de la limpieza étnica y la destrucción sistemática que perpetran en Gaza, asegurando que el objetivo es hacerla inhabitable para que los palestinos tengan que huir de allí.
En mundo medio normal, después de que un ministro suelte esta barbaridad, tendría que ser detenido inmediatamente por crímenes de lesa de humanidad.
