Politically Enraged

Politically Enraged ·

2022/08/03

I've caught so much crap from people on social media the last few weeks as I really started to deconstruct my stance on politics and my own biases. I've questioned Labour on their politics and stances on certain issues, asked questions about Corbyn's already infamous interview, I've slammed tories for their ridiculous stances and in this episode I'm asking you why we entwine the idea of rancid spaffs like Rees-Mogg with Britishness and why we simply refuse to hear any critique of things we like or

Goattmeal kept coming up all the time on my pages and I one day realised I wasn't following him. I pressed the little button and the two arrows that showed we were mutuals came up and I had little stars in my eyes because it was great to know he liked my rambling as much as I liked his! I've kept a close eye on his videos because he's great at cutting out the bull and getting right to the point -and that's exactly what we did today, covering everything from the tory, ah, "leadership" debate to what

I'm a socialist. Honest to god it feels a bit like coming out as gay. The weird looks, the incredulous eyebrow raises. People think socialists all walk around with berets and drink Moet, plotting governmental upheaval. No, I just want better for society and a lot of the opinions I have fit socialist ideals. The fact is, the status quo in the UK (and further afield) has been what you could term as "lacklustre at best" for many years. More people slipping out of the home ownership bracket, more food

2022/07/05

I've always been totally enthralled by activists of every stripe. Enduring the vitriol that comes with raising your head up and saying that the status quo isn't good enough. I've always wished I had the strength to be an activist, to really stand for something and put myself out there that way. I don't know if I could handle the white hot hate some people get when they stand up for themselves and others, even if I try to do my own lukewarm version of activism. Lately, my brain has been consumed with

Which left is the right left? What a weird question, but relevant. The world is going to hell and we're trying desperately to find tweets where someone said something bad 6 years ago- it's hardly the height of political activism, is it. My question is a genuine one and it applies across the whole spectrum of the left: why should I back your politics if you're immediately going to hate me because I don't already, how is it going to help us win and effect positive change? I'm not afraid to admit

2022/06/26

Roe Vs Wade being overturned is insane in so many ways it's hard to know where to start. Is it that a party that hasn't won the popular vote in over 25 years is making executive decisions that overturn enshrined right to basic healthcare for over 50% of American citizens? Is it further proof that extremism and zealotry are devouring America as it thrashes? Or is it the very real and varied stories of people whose lives will be ruined, cut short or snuffed out by the implications this has? I spoke at

Episode 25: Free F*cking Speech (lots of swearing)

Politically Enraged ·

2022/06/24

Free speech at its core in the UK is the ability to critique the UK government without fear of reprisals provided you don't incite violence. It's a simple concept and a key one which is now at threat under polonium penis Dominic Raab and his diet human rights act. But so many red faced numpties across the UK think free speech is their ability to say bigoted or ignorant things without having the nearest furniture item lobbed at them. It isn't. Unfortunately for you we live in a world where we can,

2022/06/18

Boris Johnson cannot feel shame or regret: we continue to try to force him to feel it. Why? It does no good whatsoever to continue to throw ourselves at the brick wall of Johnson's pathology. We need to figure out a new play to beat the tories, because the old checks and balances don't work. It's like the tories are playing monopoly (quite literally) and we're playing chess... Lets work out how to fight back. Daviemoo is a 34 year old independent writer, radicalised into blogging about the political

Joris is a fantastic activist and an all around wonderful person- every time I've ever seen his content he's always been so great at getting his point over and I recommend him to everyone. Today we talked about anti racism, intersectional existence and political activism and Joris brought new ideas about how we need to move forward. Joris' work is incredibly important and it's definitely worth following him, listening and learning because teaching is what Joris does best. Daviemoo is a 34 year old

CW: This episode features the F slur. I feel so depressed now I've recorded this episode. I thought it might be a bit cathartic to speak about this. But reminding myself of the injustice of being called a slur and the person who did it facing absolutely no consequences has infuriated me. I decided rather than just talking about generic stuff for pride I wanted to focus on the actual reality of being LGBT+ and showing you some of the things we face in our lives. Being LGBT+ has been a blessing and a

2022/05/26

Britain is multicultural, and has been since we ransacked other countries to build the empire we still support to this day. Multiculturalism is another ism that's been hijacked by the right to try and frighten people into voting conservative, and conservatism is going off the deep end, more and more every day. When the usual checks and balances of governance no longer apply to the country how are we meant to fight back? The usual tools in place are useless- we can't shame the government, we can't

Boris Johnson's wilful dismissal of rules has been known for years- his schoolteachers described him as a child shocked that they felt he should abide by the same rules as everyone else, he was taken to task repeatedly for his shoddy research work and even fired for lying in print. He had all the makings of a charlatan and has proved this over and over, and yet he is our sitting prime minister- the first sitting prime minister to be convicted of a crime whilst in office.

2022/05/17

I started following ChampagneSocialist because it was nice to see someone talk so factually about politics in a way that was engaging- plus he has really cool hair. Nothing has changed in my stance since then, about either politics or his hair, but he's worth the follow because he's more adept than most at cutting through the utter noncery that's going on in politics now and getting right to the point. I recommend his content to you! This was a very illuminating chat and I hope you enjoy listening

Pregnancy is a joy for some people, a death sentence or a debilitating condition for others. But ultimately it's a biological function and one that you should be allowed to choose whether you want to have or not. The potential to create life doesn't necessarily dictate that you should, or that you would want to- we license people to drive cars despite most of us having bodies which are capable of doing it so why is the potential to create a living being treated with such a cavalier attitude?

Politically Enraged ·

2022/05/03

Conzo is an awesome person- kind and funny, and very motivated to make the world a better place. The nordic model he's talking about is problematic in a great number of ways, and our conversation focused mainly on how important it is to destigmatise and demystify sex work. Sex work is work, and it's important that we start to look after sex workers as individuals: Conzo's entire pathos is around doing just that- advocating for sex workers. He's also a passionate animal lover and I can't not mention

When The Mail on Sunday (or as I like to refer to it, patterned toilet paper for the weekend) published its disgusting article about Angela Rayner I assumed- forgetting that the mail doesn't do morals- that they would rather quickly recant it and apologise on multiple fronts: one, for being misogynistic shitpipes who only seem to care about gutter press bottom line snarkery about opposition politicians and two, for the irony of dedicating an entire front page to explaining how the war thousands of

2022/04/19

I started following Jay because he was funny, smart and eloquent in a way you rarely see people be on the internet. His gender journey has been something I've paid attention to because it's a topic close to my heart as a self-proclaimed trans ally, but it was also just refreshing to see someone getting such joy out of their journey, and sharing that with their audience. Jay's comments are regularly full of praise for his music but also for his openness about who he is and how everything works for

I was lucky to find Marina Purkiss on my twitter travails, and I followed her some time in 2021 after catching one of her tweets: she words things in such an incisive and insightful way: I was probably at 500 followers and tweeting about mostly nothing at the time but I knew I liked her. Marina is a wonderful speaker and has been spotted all across the leftosphere as a voice of reason whose logical, concise and eloquent arguments have given pause to many a right wing demagogue, and it was a pleasure

It's always fun to film an episode with someone who you both know and like, both as an archetype and a person: smart, eloquent people are the best and OpenBookshelf is a fabulous example of someone who is smart, funny and who articulates her points perfectly. I first became aware of her via TikTok thanks to some content she'd made about the nature of politics as an entity that exists beyond our borders and I've stayed tuned and listened to her speak on a wealth of topics. I recommend following her
