But I think that even just mentioning it raises the conversation and is an effective use of Zoran Mamdani's time in front of the microphone.
Oh, he was amazing, yeah.
Oh, come on.
Everybody knows what we're talking about.
Come on.
We've moved on, but have we?
Yeah.
the famine is in our bones guys we can't help it um okay well let's stay in the uk i suppose and we can talk about this absolutely insane thing that happened this week with kemi badnock uh and some footage from bloody sunday that was used in a video celebrating the british armed forces
But I think, you know, what's particularly noteworthy about this is that, you know, there were 13 unarmed civilians who were shot dead on Bloody Sunday and their families are still working toward justice.
So you're talking about footage of the murders of family members of people who are still just begging for justice, who are still alive, who I'm sure have seen this video.
Like, it's not like we can say, oh, it was a very, very long time ago.
Nobody, you know, nobody's connected to that anymore.
And, you know, Kemi Badnock's apology kind of said that she said the video was done by very young people who did not recognize the footage as being from Bloody Sunday.
And sure does not say at all that like it's not even a blip on the radar of of many British people's lives that they wouldn't even think of it or be aware of it in making this kind of content.
Bloody Sunday.
Absolutely.
I mean, look, we're decades into social media now.
Do you know what I mean?
And this like, oh, is the social media intern kind of claim?
It just doesn't really work anymore anymore.
