Context this appears to be a still from a #NarrativeAbortionStanceProLife video seemingly produced by #OrgUSLiveAction. The video presents a pretty gruesome image of a fully-developed (third trimester/40 weeks), living foetus being aggressively dismembered by forceps.
Supplementary "Live Action is an anti-abortion extremist organization founded by Lila Rose in 2003 'with the goal to expose what abortion does to the preborn child.' After meeting James O'Keefe -- the far-right extremist and founder of Project Veritas -- in 2006, Rose and O'Keefe began undercover investigations into what she calls 'the abortion industry,' orchestrating the first nationally televised exposé in 2008. The videos shown were heavily edited to portray Planned Parenthood employees as disobeying medical laws despite that not being the case. Rose was forced to take down the videos following a cease and desist from Planned Parenthood. That same year, Live Action was legally formed as a 501(c)(3). The organization continues to produce deceptively edited videos, using them for social media campaigns, broadcasting misinformation to its large audiences." https://pro-lies.org/live-action/ #OrgUSLiveActionLilaRose #AdvocacyUSProjectVeritasJamesOKeefe #OrgUSPlannedParenthood

Supplementary #WebsitePolitico #WebsitePoliticoAndrewMcDonald and #WebsitePoliticoMasonBoycottOwen "On July 29, Southport -- a seaside town just outside Liverpool -- was rocked by unimaginable tragedy. Three girls -- Bebe King, six, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and Alice Dasilva Aguiar, nine -- were fatally stabbed while attending a Taylor Swift-themed dance event. The attack also injured 10 others, some critically. A 17-year-old male was arrested, and he was later revealed to be born in Cardiff to parents from Rwanda. He has no known links to Islam. As is usual under British law for suspects aged under 18, the police did not initially name him. Within hours, social media was awash with false rumors about his background -- including that there was an Islamist connection to the killings and that the attacker was an asylum seeker, both of which the police later said weren't true. A vigil for the victims last Tuesday was hijacked by people that police said were linked to the far-right English Defense League, a now-defunct organization. They tore bricks from residential properties to throw at police and Southport's mosque, which said it was also hit with petrol bombs. In the days that followed the Southport riot, further disorder flared up across England and in Northern Ireland. ... According to the Daily Mail [ https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13709389/who-riots-britain-far-right-influencers-thugs-streets.html ], Robinson is currently in a hotel in Cyprus, from where he has been posting a flurry of videos to social media. Each post has been viewed hundreds of thousands of times, and shared by right-wing figures across the world including United States InfoWars founder Alex Jones."

#NMUKBBCPanoramaDanielDeSimone "One possible conclusion to be drawn from the burst of violence this summer is that far-right narratives are now more mainstream than many would like to think. Is there now a far-right culture that is more prevalent in society and which transcends the need to organise in political groups? If so, activists may feel emboldened by what's happened over these past weeks and the risk of violence potentially could be even greater. When reflecting this week, I thought back to a cold day in Preston in early January 2018. I was in court watching a defendant called Jack Renshaw, who was giving evidence in a trial that saw him convicted of stirring up racial hatred in antisemitic speeches. By the end of that year - and two further trials - he was also convicted of sexually grooming young boys and planning to kill his local MP with a machete in a neo-Nazi terror attack. I checked my notes and, yes, my memory had been correct. Renshaw, an admitted neo-Nazi and former member of the BNP and National Action, was asked why he engaged in racist activism. In response, he said it helped change politics for everyone. 'It makes mainstream politics more right wing,' he told the court. The reaction of the public, police and courts to the riots has shown how most people do not share the violent hatreds and fantasies of the far and extreme right. But many others will feel a UK of far-right flash mobs is more scary, unpredictable and racist than they believed and wonder what the future holds. This remains a dangerous moment." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c74lwnxxxzjo #OrgUKTerroristAtomwaffenDivisionSonnenkriegDivision [Wikipedia] #ToponymEuropeUKEnglandLancashirePreston #2018_ #OrgUKTerroristNationalActionNAJackRenshaw #OrgClassifPPUKLabourRosieCooper #PowerControlViolationPaedophilia

#WebsiteTheConversationSaraWilford "The radicalisation of middle-aged people is an emerging but overlooked phenomenon that has been brought to the fore by these riots, potentially because of the apparent link to the spread of misinformation online. As my ongoing research is finding, this group is vulnerable to being misled by fake news and conspiracy theories. Middle-aged people are often bundled in with the 'over 50s' as a group, which includes the very old - a demographic with whom they have little in common. The middle aged are not 'digital natives' but they are online. And, crucially, they may actually be less informed about the dangers of online misinformation than younger people because they have not been the target of education in the same way. These days, significant effort is put in to educating young people about how to navigate the online world safely, but middle aged people missed the boat. The middle-aged were introduced to the internet as adults and their understanding of the online sphere is largely self-taught and self-regulated. As a result, they can be poor decision makers when it comes to what to consume and what to believe. This exposure may lead people to make significant decisions, such as heading out to take part in violent unrest or attacking a mosque or a hotel housing asylum seekers, based on flawed or dishonest information that they have gathered on the internet." https://theconversation.com/middle-aged-radicalisation-why-are-so-many-of-britains-rioters-in-their-40s-and-50s-236263 And https://www.smidgeproject.eu/about-smidge #MetaphorGenerationTheOlder #PhenomnRadicalisation #EpistemologyAmateurExegeteAutodidactDigital

The application for leave to appeal against sentence therefore fails and is refused.' He said the principal ground for appeal 'was substantially based on a version of events put forward by the applicant which we have rejected'." https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025/may/20/jailed-wife-of-ex-tory-councillor-loses-sentence-appeal-over-southport-tweet

Supplementary #OrgUSProPublicaCoreyJohnson, #OrgUSProPublicaByardDuncan "Cambridge analysts ran the enhanced data through an algorithm to create psychological profiles that allowed for more incisive targeting. Potential voters were assigned one of five personality groups: risk-takers, carers, go-getters, individualists and supporters. Each got a tailored message. Risk-takers were viewed as highly neurotic and susceptible to ads that pricked their fears, Cambridge records show. Go-getters, on the other hand, would respond better to messages of optimism and the promise of a better future. ... For the gun industry, a Democratic majority in the Senate and a Hillary Clinton presidency would have meant more legislative battles and a possible return to gun restrictions and loss of profits. Patrick O'Malley, the man who had been running the NSSF's largely successful electioneering effort for more than a decade, realized it needed to modernize, according to Cambridge emails. So in April 2016, O'Malley, an NSSF contractor and political consultant, hired Cambridge Analytica. The written agreement called for Cambridge to mobilize supporters of the Second Amendment in the battleground states of Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Missouri, Colorado, Nevada, Wisconsin, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire."

#NewspaperUKBrdshtTheTelegraphEdwardMalnick "The advertising boycott of GB News shows Britain can no longer take basic democratic values for granted, the Culture Secretary has warned. Writing for The Telegraph, Oliver Dowden said a 'vocal Twitter minority' was targeting the 'free and diverse media' and the 'right to dissent'. The Cabinet minister pledged: 'We will not stand by and allow that to happen.' In an escalation of the Government's so-called 'war on woke', Mr Dowden insisted the fledgling centre-Right broadcaster is right to seek to 'empower' viewers who feel that their 'concerns have been unheard'. His intervention came after several companies withdrew advertising from GB News in its first week on air in the face of a 'stop funding hate' campaign. Mr Dowden said: 'When he launched the channel, veteran broadcaster Andrew Neil vowed that GB News would not be 'an echo chamber for the metropolitan mindset', and that it would 'empower those who feel their concerns have been unheard'. 'Rightly so. A free media is one that has a diverse range of opinions and voices.' Mr Dowden identified the protection of journalism and political opinions as 'the grounds of a functioning democracy', adding: 'Sadly, we can no longer take them for granted. 'Across the West, our values of tolerance and freedom of expression, for which previous generations have fought and died, increasingly risk being undermined by a small but vocal minority. For them, these are not absolute, but relative, concepts, ready to be bent to silence dissent from their world view.' In an interview with The Telegraph, Frank Luntz, the veteran US pollster behind use of 'climate change' instead of 'global warming' said he fears 'capitalism' is becoming a 'bad word' in Britain, and said he is seeking an alternative to the word." https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2021/06/19/exclusive-gb-news-boycott-shows-cant-take-democratic-values/ #NMUKGBNews #OrgClassifPPUKConservativePartyOliverDowden #MetaphorSpatialEchoChamber #IRLPollsterFrankLuntz [Wikipedia] #PhenomnClimateChange #PhenomnClimateChangeGlobalWarming #PoliticsCapitalism
