It only took them a couple months but the Guardian finally realized Machado isn't quite the angel they thought.

Writers are boycotting the Hay festival in Colombia to protest Machado's invitation.

“Given the grave moment of escalating imperial violence, it is better to withdraw from a festival ... which has decided to invite someone who dedicated a peace prize to the fascist responsible for these crimes”

Wrong, Wrong, WRONG #Guardian!

The "best cordless leaf blower" is a RAKE!

These products may be "quieter", but they're NOT "quiet". Please stop encouraging the disruption of our peaceful communities.

Is anyone paying attention?

https://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2025/dec/11/meta-shuts-down-global-accounts-linked-to-abortion-advice-and-queer-content

"Campaigners have accused Meta of being condescending and unresponsive, with the company offering only vague reasons why certain accounts were taken down – and appearing unwilling to engage."

These interventions "...reinforce the power imbalance that allows big tech to decide whose voices are amplified and whose are silenced."

That is why we should all move to the Fediverse.

Dear #Guardian #TheGuardian - wtf is wrong with you?! The story is fine, but the headline is unbelievable! "Family of victim in #Trump drug boat killings files first formal complaint" - what? "Drug boat?!" There is no evidence whatsoever that these boats are carrying drugs! This headline validates Trump´s specious claim! Not to mention that drug offences in the US are not capital offences, and even if these boats were "drug boats", the #US has no right to murder people for an ostensible drug offence. Egad, Guardian. What has become of you? https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/dec/02/trump-caribbean-drug-boat-attack-complaint

Peter #Ettedgui, the former classmate of Nigel #Farage who was subjected to his antisemitic bullying makes clear that the #Reform leader’s defence to the #Guardian’s investigations into the racist taunting was a pack of lies.

Farage subjected his Jewish, Pakistani and Afro-Caribbean peers to bullying throughout his teens and this is corroborated by witnesses.

The Guardian don't want me to read their articles anymore. Which means they don't want to have any influence on me, don't want me to consider starting to pay them in the future, and don't want me to find articles that I share with other people.

Interesting strategy.

Thankfully all the nazi propaganda channels are still free and open to everyone...

I only now found the time to properly read this:

"The rise of end times fascism by #NaomiKlein and #AstraTaylor"

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-interactive/2025/apr/13/end-times-fascism-far-right-trump-musk

Critical reading to know what we're up against.

(It would be good to explore how these narratives connect with the narratives that are embraced and pushed by Baudet and his FvD constituency).
