After exploring Twitter alternatives, I'm landing here. Londoner originally from Canada and the US.
@galacticstone I stopped watching the Olympics after the treatment of the Ukrainian athlete.
@rvps2001 I'm disgusted by the IOC. The committee should resign.

There is something very wrong in this country when six young people meeting to discuss politics in a Quaker Meeting House are arrested by the police after a mass (twenty officers) invasion of the building (armed with tasers).

The freedom to protest, or even the freedom to meet in a room to discuss current affairs, are central to a democracy... if this freedom is now compromised (further), as it seems to be, we are in a very bad place!

@ProjectFearlessness This is exactly what they did in the US. Russia misinformation and Musk's money pushing misinformation. Sane parties need to get smart and combat this better, or we will all be under authoritarian regimes.
@georgetakei exactly! We need to wake up.

You in the media are partly to blame. You have normalised the authoritarian.
