The article is from June…from the evidence of latest #BBC output it would seem they are no longer pretending to ‘plan’ this change in programming to appease #Reform and the #Right, it’s active and has been for some considerable time.

@span Eetschrijver @span GottaLaff I’ve been compiling a list - not in order, feel free to add to it - it has a UK bias. Cc @span ChrisMayLA6

Thanks to the political #right #neoliberalism and the #farright:
We can no longer afford kids
We no longer have stable employment
We have a polluted earth
University is too expensive for those who could benefit from it
Cars and motorbikes have become too expensive for most people
Housing has become too expensive more most people
Healthcare services are failing… (1/3)

While the shooter’s identity & political beliefs remained unknown in the hours after the shooting, that didn’t stop many on the #right from framing the #CharleKirk killing as an indictment of the #left.

“No more mercy for leftists,” wrote the Malaysian MAGA influencer Ian Miles Cheong. “They want you dead. They truly want to kill you and desecrate your body and erase your memory.”

“THIS IS WAR,” wrote Chaya Raichik, the person behind the Libs of TikTok account.

“The Left is the party of murder,” #ElonMusk wrote.

“The Left wants us dead,” wrote C.J. Pearson, a Gen Z conservative influencer. “This is not hyperbole. This is now the ONLY logical conclusion that any sane human being can reach after a repeated pattern of demonstrated behavior & violence.”

#MatthewDowd responded: “He’s been one of the most divisive, especially divisive younger figures in this, who is constantly…pushing this sort of hate speech…aimed at certain groups. I always go back to, hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which then lead to hateful actions. I think that is the environment we are in. You can’t stop with these sort of awful thoughts you have & then saying these awful words & not expect awful actions to take place. That’s the unfortunate environment we are in.”

Even in their ambitions they can’t imagine a better world. He is posting on a uniformly #antiTrump website & still can’t even imagine a scenario where the #right isn’t dictating #policy. Republicans are creating a world without the Department of #Education, & #PBS, #Dems can’t imagine no #ICE!

There will surely be turf wars and palace intrigue within the administration, but there is little reason to think that its core figures will fracture in the pursuit of this basic goal. To say that these figures are ideologically cohesive, however, is not to say that they will be successful. The continuing fact of class dealignment means that Trump’s 77 million voters are more dependent than ever on state provision. The twentieth-century state came into being for a reason and endured, however partially, for a reason; gutting it would unleash forces that no one can predict or control. If the project of Trump’s second term fails, it will not be because its protagonists turned on one another, but rather because the ice broke beneath their feet.
From Fissures in Trumpworld?
