People who see other humans as a source of exploitation, driven by extreme competition, versus those who are community minded.

This is just our society now: pogroms, race riots, racially-motivated attempted murder, fire bombing, far right fascist marches.
I'm disgusted - DISGUSTED - and how many people have surrendered to hatred and propaganda. We betray ourselves.

@mrjamesob.bsky.social The woman you just had on echoes my sentiments. The stubborn part of me that does not want to give in to racists thinks "you can kiss my Black arse. I'm going nowhere." The other side though is already thinking of applying for other passports if Nigel Farage gets in.

@lbc.co.uk why are your posts on X not mirrored here? I would rather not read the abusive bile that often accompanies your posts or do you not care as long as it drives engagement?

Being a carer means showing up every day, doing what needs to be done, often without anyone noticing.
That’s why I’m so glad Carers Week this year is all about building carer-friendly communities, where carers are recognised and supported.

100% this! Add to that the numerous deaths of Black people in police custody in the UK, it's no wonder people took to the streets.
I'm old enough to remember the LA riots after Rodney King was beaten up on camera and the police who did it were acquitted.

1/5 The way the right talk about George Floyd as if it were some sort of moment of victory for ethnic minorities is so twisted
His murder was traumatic because almost every black family in the UK has experienced or been fearful of police harassment or police brutality from a young age

Does Trump really have aides posting for him at 2 40am?
The uproar was immediate but Trump left it up for 12 hrs. I think he enjoyed the outrage it caused. Just like he did when he watched the 6 Jan riots with glee.

I miss having decency and intelligence in the White House, but I also miss just having decency championed in our every day society. DT has brought out the very worst in America, and they feel emboldened and empowered. It feels lonely to be someone with compassion, and that should never be the case.
