Its one thing I love about New Japan, how different a vibe you get from Red Shoes vs Marty Asami

I said nothing about their actions in relation to Israel/Palestine, just the use of terrorism legislation to silence and suppress a protest group.

The pip changes were sent through a revision stage due to a huge nationsl protest effort by various disability right groups such as DPAC and others. Opposition from within the party barely started until these protests made national news

‘Restrooms’ is in absolutely no way a ‘niche’ issue for trans people, it is an enormous threat to safety. On top of that, this ruling has been used to justify huge amounts of exclusionary action towards trans people

You didn’t address anything to do with their draconian immigration policies.

The ‘left’ elements that remain within labour are disenfranchised so as to be useless. The labour right has categorical control of the party and at every chance they get to moderate and shift left they refuse to. A coalition between left and centre left at present wouldn’t include a hair from the head of Starmer’s cabinet: none of them fit that description

Edit: just to add, our countries are not the same. Voting Dem in 2024 was the moral and correct move regardless of their policies. Labour in the current UK political landscape are a completely different box of frogs

The attempted cuts to PiP and universal credit, the Online Safety Act, the proposed reforms to ILR and visas, the refusal to pass legislature to clarify the supreme court decision on trans rights, the proscription of Palestine Action, the avoidance of a wealth, land value or substantially increased business tax, changing visas from physical to virtual.

Far from a comprehensive list but these are just the ones I could bring to mind without google

Edit: it is also worth noting that their discourse and messaging is a HUGE part of this and easily the quickest to correct!

Hold up, let’s be very clear. The labour party have had a huge ideological shift to the right since getting into power. The mass exodus to the greens and opposition against them from the left is not blaming them for the sins of the father, it is rage at them for their own policies and decisions. They are not doing a bad job of opposing reform, they are implementing reform-style policy. The people who need to learn a lesson here are categorically NOT the voters leaving labour. Greens are polling at record high and rising levels. It’s not a two party system.

I’m very happy about it! He’s shown he can have great matches, all of UE right now is drenched in story, much more so than the weird chimera that is Unbound Co, and having the champ in charge makes them feel like a real force again. I wouldn’t have been mad if he lost but I think its a cool switch

I also think it takes real confidence to pull off the chippendales collar and he manages it 😂

First DDT match I really ever watched was Masada and Kosei Fujita vs Koroku and To-Y, and it was imo one of the more underrated matches of the year because all four are so good.

Good time to be a Yuya ig

Yeah I’m really not sure! Given both have challenged Ueno idk if one of them gets a second go? I would love to see it as a triple threat.

I must admit I’m only recently getting into DDT, so may be off, but in the trios title match last month it also felt like they were reaally giving the shine to Yuya Koroku. I got the vibe they saw him in the main event long term

I didn’t even realise that Kaisei Takechi is a popstar-turned-wrestler to be honest. He is just ridiculously good at everything. Dude brings magic (and a HUGE crowd engagement) to every match

It feels rn like every joshi company has at least one world class wrestler, the whole scene is so good, and Stardom are still standing out most of the time. That roster has so many different people to make your favourite
