General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Elon Musk clearly needs mental health support.

Hell of late he is making trump see, sane and well-thought-out.

Wow, the Nazis (and bots) that remain on Twitter agree with their Nazi leader, I'm so surprised!

Meanwhile he's fine with Putin, even has chats over the phone with him.

...never seen him tweet anything bad about him infact.

You should've voted yes. It'll get X banned faster in Europe.

What the fuck is this, an anachronistic parody of 1939? "What if Hitler had Twitter"?

For the sake of the world, I hope whatever brain-eating disease he's contracted acts quickly.

Right, because his tyranny will be so much better for us! 🙄

Absolute masterpiece of an example of how the narrative of a question is equally as important.

Neither Yes or No are a good answer here.

Surely there's only troll bots and right wing psychopaths left on twitter? I'm surprised it's not 100% yes

If in the next decade Ruzzia and America form an AXIS like alliance to take over more territory I won’t be surprised.

I genuinely can't believe what is happening. What timeline are we living in?

Maybe it's time we designated Musk as a terrorist?

I genuinely can’t believe what is happening

Then you should pay more attention to history...

And I don't mean that as an insult, all this shit is reruns of shit we've already been thru. WW2 had a large push by wealthy American businessmen to not just abstain from the war, but they advocated for joining the Axis back then.

Capitalism and fascism go hand in hand, the ultra wealthy will always want fascism because fascist leaders love bomb them to get their wealth and power behind the movement.

We all need to understand this shit so we can understand what worked last time and why it didn't work permanently

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 weeks ago
