He had never once struck up a conversation with me, but he had made a judgement and determination of who I was, and it was incredibly dehumanizing. I was met with so much hostility and cruelty by the Democratic caucus when I was elected and I think that it created so much more antagonism than what was necessary in that time, and so I think that both ends of this relationship require workโ€ฆfor us all to get what we want doneโ€ฆbut what Iโ€™m NOT going to do is allow my humanity to be erased and I donโ€™t think that these newly elected officials should have theirs erased either.โ€๐Ÿ‘Š

After the Spain and France game, I tweeted this: โ€œCollective quality outperformed individual quality.โ€ This was just a sense. It was a feeling after the game that I quickly put into words, but I didnโ€™t have any evidence for it. I didnโ€™t have anything other than the feeling that I got from watching the game. So I decided to go into FIFAโ€™s Training Centre and look up the match reports to see if I could find anything that would lead to the conclusion I had: that Spain were collectively better than France. At a glance, the answer was no. Other than expected goals, pretty much everything was around the same: complete passes, pass completion, possession percentage and ball progressions. If you look at the line breaks, youโ€™ll see that France were actually a little bit higher, which makes sense because France typically like to play a little bit more vertically. However, there is one statistic that does show what I felt: offering to receive. France had 329 total offers made, distributed fairly evenly throughout the field, and 114 total offers received. Spain, on the other hand, had 438 total offers made. They made 236 offers in the middle third and 275 offers inside the shape. That is where the numbers really begin to differ. As FIFA defines it, an offer to receive is an off-ball movement that shows intent to support the player on the ball, either to maintain possession or progress the ball. Spain were constantly providing their teammates, through proximity, through closeness, and through angles and lines of support, an option to continue playing. That shows that, in moments when Spain have the ball, there are constantly three, four or five players moving and providing an option to continue to maintain possession. Spain play together. The player on the ball is rarely left alone to solve the moment through their individual quality while everyone else watches. There is an option, an exit plan, some way out in case they need it. Secondly, when we think about this Spanish style, we often think about one touch, two touch, pass, pass, pass. What we often fail to realize is that these players have so much ability on the ball. Even a right back has the quality to beat a player, get out of a press and continue the attack. Playing collectively does not mean removing individual quality. Their individual quality allows the collective to continue playing. Then there are the speed-up moments. Spain can maintain possession, move France, slow the game down and continue offering support, but when the moment to go forward appears, it is time to go forward. They recognize that moment of verticality and they accelerate. Then, if the possibility disappears, they slow down again and continue playing. There is another element of Spain. Once they have moved France back into their final third, they create these structures where they basically suffocate you. Any time the ball pops out, there are players ready to defend and ready to win the next ball in order to keep it going. The structure, the organization and the roles allow them to stay pressing, keep playing together and keep having the ball. Lastly, there is this type of football that I call football from the plaza, fรบtbol de plaza, where you learn to attack, dribble, pass and play in tight spaces. You learn these interactions and these one-two combinations, but you donโ€™t learn them through the repetition of patterns. You learn them through doing it for your entire childhood in these tight areas. It is play, pass and go, play and go, constantly finding the next interaction and then finding that moment of verticality. That whole sequence shows exactly why Spain are Spain. To summarize, they are constantly offering their teammates support. My initial feeling that collective quality outperformed individual quality came from watching Spain play together, always offering options to the player on the ball rather than watching the player on the ball do something with their individual quality. They offer an option, an exit plan, some way out in case it is needed. The players are also able to escape individually when the collective solution is not immediately available. They recognize the speed-up moments and, when they find themselves in moments where they can go forward, they go vertical. Then they suffocate you through the structure and organization that allow them to win the ball again and keep playing together. And that last pieceโ€”the forward pass, play and goโ€”is the kind of thing you get a lot from 3v3, 4v4 and 2v2 games. All in all, fantastic. So much fun to watch the Spanish team and so much fun to see all of their style essentially culminate into one match and, in this case, into one goal.

So, I'm just just going to go ahead and say what a lot of people are already thinking about or are already in agreement with (due to their own first-hand experiences) in saying that, ever since the unfortunate passing of the late Akira Toriyama, the torch of his memory which SHOULDโ€™VE been handled with honor, now feels like it has been dropped by the very company who was entrusted with preserving his legacy. I love Dragon Ball. I have been a fan of this franchise for over 25 years. I have poured my time, my money and a large part of my life into this franchise. Dragon Ball has given me more than I could possibly begin to express or put into words. My passion and my love for Dragon Ball is real. But to me, I think that the heads of the Dragon Ball IP and the executives who call the shots have done nothing but stagnate this franchise into the void because within recent years, they have done nothing provide us with a clear and transparent roadmap to look forward to. There have been no new updates or developments leading up to the return of the Dragon Ball Super Manga and the next major arc to unfold within it. Which speaking of โ€œNew DBS Arcsโ€, they introduced Black Frieza for the very first time (from literally out of nowhere, mind you) which happened 3 YEARS AGO, in watching him close out the Granolah Arc, only to NEVER BE SEEN or heard from by anyone, ever again with the exception of cover art. The Dragon Ball Super Anime was abandoned in March 2018 (Yes, abandoned - donโ€™t try and insulate otherwise). Dragon Ball Daima ended (with the English dub ending soon). The Super Dragon Ball Heroes Anime and Manga were both shit-canned and have ended. Dragon Ball Super: Super Hero was 3 years ago. Dragon Ball Super: Broly was almost 7 years ago. Battle of Gods and Resurrection F are both 10+ years old. The games are currently carrying the IP forward, but to what extent? The list goes on. And You know EXACTLY what Iโ€™m talking about as well because everyone has felt it and everyone can see it. The company behind this franchise and the figureheads who sit in charge of having to oversee it, are clueless, indecisive and directionless. There are NO EXCUSES behind their inconsistency, no matter how badly someone tries to tell you otherwise. I love Dragon Ball, and I'm pretty certain that YOU do as well. Dragon Ball deserves so much better. The fans deserve so much better. And Akira Toriyamaโ€™s legacy deserves to be highlighted for what itโ€™s done and for what itโ€™s grown into, and not simply kept frozen within corporate indecision, incompetence and greed. Just my two cents on the matter.

It's the first time and there were things that I wanted to try doing, and I was very afraid abt whether or not I'd be able to do them. But, even though I feel like I still didn't do that well, when I look back at my clips from when I was trying to dance the first timeโ€“ ๐Ÿฐ: So beautiful. ๐ŸฆŠ: When I look back at my clips from when I first started dance practice, my face was like, I don't want to do this anymore, can I change it? But, looking back at them, hey, I improved, didn't I? ๐Ÿฐ: You did so well. ๐ŸฆŠ: I saw that I improved too, so I'm really glad that I had this stage to prove to myself that I can do it too. ๐ŸฆŠ: If there were any mistakes today, I apologise, pls forgive me. I hope there'll be more chances for me to redeem myself. I hope you'll come see us, stay with us, and continue to see our improvement. Thank you so much, everyone.

๐Ÿšจ โ€œThis Problem Is a Muslim Problemโ€ Julie Hartley-Brewer Drops the Truth Bomb Starmer, Labour and the Establishment Are Too Cowardly to Admit ๐Ÿ”ฅ Julie Hartley-Brewer is spot on, and refreshingly unafraid to say what far too many politicians are too cowardly to admit. We should be arresting non-British citizens living here, often on benefits, who use mosques to preach hate. This wave of antisemitism isnโ€™t some generic British problem. Look at the names of those arrested and convicted: they arenโ€™t John and Belinda. Weโ€™ve imported this problem by bringing in large numbers of people from countries where vicious attitudes towards Jews are disturbingly normal. And itโ€™s not just about Jews. Importing people from societies with medieval views on women and gay people means we import those attitudes too. None of this is a mystery to anyone whoโ€™s been paying attention for the last 30 years. Yet to the Labour Party and much of the left, itโ€™s apparently a complete surprise. Starmerโ€™s government and the wider political class still tiptoe around the issue, terrified of being called โ€œIslamophobic,โ€ more focused on optics and appeasement than protecting British Jews, women, or the very principle of integration. They imported the problem through reckless mass migration without any serious demand for assimilation, and now they refuse to even acknowledge the reality staring them in the face. Thank you, Julie, for telling the truth without the usual spin. Britain needs more straight talk like this, not more denial from the establishment. Time to put British citizens and our values first, starting with deporting the hate preachers who shouldnโ€™t be here in the first place.

Pressing, transitions and goals in Canada! After the hiring of Jesse Marsch this week by Canada Soccer , there has been lots of talk about pressing and transitions in the football community. This is THE style of play that we have used for the last 5 years with Alliance United FC in @L1OMens and will give you some insight in how this can look. We went away from the 'possession' based 1-4-3-3 that everyone has been using as the 'best way' to develop players and win games. Many say this is the 'right way' of playing. However, we use the players' abilities and inabilities as the starting point and based on players produced in Canada, within our youth system, this is the way we think will get us the best results and help our players get to the next level. You need to understand youth development in our country to understand what is and what is not being taught to young players. This is not a negative outlook, it is just looking at the reality. Many mistake this style of play as just non-stop pressing and chaos. Yes, these two aspects are important but it is a much more deliberate and planned way of playing that is used to predict where the opposition will play the ball, where the ball can be dictated and what areas the opposition leave open for transitions when they attack. In 2019, I was introduced to Ernst Tanner former Academy Director of Red Bull Salzburg and current Philadelphia Union Sporting Director that has led the club to being one of the top clubs in MLS and arguably the best academies in North America the last few years. Both organisations are known for their pressing and fast transitions in addition to producing top players. He became a mentor to me and gave me insights and education on this style of play. He has changed the way I look at football. Every season we try to recruit players that can play this style that I will describe below and we do not waiver in the way we played. Every game since 2019 Alliance United FC have played either in a 1-4-2-2-2 or a 1-4-4-2 midfield diamond....every game. We have no secrets in how we play. We focus on defending, pressing, forcing teams into mistakes and transition football. It is important to understand that we do not care how much possession we have and we actually want the opposition to have the ball most of the time. Stats in football show that only when a team has the ball 70% or more in a match their is a correlation to winning. Anything less is not correlated to winning in a certain match. In addition, 80% of goals are scored under 5 passes or less and under 10 seconds when regaining possession. We follow the trend! So, here are some important points based on the video: a) Pressing higher up the pitch when possible. All 11 players are committed to the team intention (principles) and if anybody is not committed and does not contribute to this style of play, they do not play. There is no leeway on this. Either you are in 100% in or you are not. All it takes is one player to not commit and the plan will not work. If we do not win the ball on the high press, everyone is to drop behind the ball as fast as possible to restart the press closer to our goal. b) Based on the opponent's scouting we press certain players and decide if will press closer to the sideline and 'pin' the player to the sideline or we dictate the passes and dribbles centrally and 'surround' the player to win the ball in central positions. We also decide if we will sometimes drop lower for the opposition to advance so we can play behind them when winning the ball. This is done if we scout that the opposition centre-backs are slower than our two strikers. This means we will 'outrun' them in the space they leave behind. c) When winning the ball we want to exploit space behind their backline as the priority which means that a player(s) need to be passing options behind the backline and preferably centrally which is closer to the goal, players winning the ball has to look to play the ball to the player furthest up the pitch. Possession is not a priority but scoring goals as fast as possible is. d) When winning the ball we stay as central as possible with passes and dribbling. We use the width of the penalty area (44 yards) as the preferable dimension when transitioning. We want to stay within this width. The wider the team plays the ball, the more time the opposition has to block the middle. PLAY AS VERTICALLY AS POSSIBLE! The emphasis is to get the ball to the two strikers and play 1v1 against the CBs. e) We know that most youth players grow up playing against a 1-4-3-3 which means there is one central striker meaning the centre-backs one back press and one can cover. Against 2 strikers this is not possible and many centre-backs do not have the ability to play 1v1 with space behind them. They are not taught the cues to step and press or drop to protect space behind them. They are never taught at youth level. We exploit this deficiency. e) All 11 players must get up the pitch to close the spaces if we lose the ball from our attacking transition so the opposition cannot transition against us and we can counter-press. f) A goal is the best outcome based on the objective of attacking but at the minimum we want to get a shot on goal from a transition. This is a quick overview of a different way of playing football that Canada will see with the Men's National Team.

๐Ÿšจ3 REASONS WHY ISRAEL ATTACKED IRAN๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ท: 'I donโ€™t think you go too far wrong if you start by looking at the Israeli domestic political equation. So letโ€™s first say that Israel has a Prime Minister who is in last chance saloon when it comes to being in a position where he can win an election. He managed to stabilise and be in a position where he can stay in government, but he hasnโ€™t positioned himself to actually win an election. And Israel is approaching the starting line of an election, number one. Number two, you have to shift the narrative away from Gaza. Iโ€™m not saying you are about to see Israelโ€™s allies turning on it, but the extent of the transparency of the genocidal intent and actions was getting difficult to manage. It doesnโ€™t take very much to get your Western allies back saying Israelโ€™s right to self-defence, even though itโ€™s the aggressor, to get them back saying we stand with Israel. So it has succeeded in doing that. And thirdly, this is about something much bigger, which is can it establish itself as the regional hegemon, while at the same time it is pursuing ever more radical destabilising, letโ€™s be honest, extreme messianist ways of conducting itself in the region?' -Daniel Levy, Former Senior Advisor to Israeli Prime Ministers Yitzhak Rabin and Ehud Barak, on the latest episode of Going Underground FULL INTERVIEW BELOW IN THE REPLIES๐Ÿ‘‡

Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei just gave THE MOST accelerated talk on how scaling will continue to make models exponentially more powerful for a long time to come โ€” and that there is "NO WALL." ๐Ÿ”ฅ - From 'Alex Kantrowitz' YT Channel (Full Video link in comment) --- "The thing I think is real that I've said over and over again is the exponential. The idea that every few months we get an AI model that is better than the AI model we got before. And we get that by investing more compute in AI models, more data, more new types of training models. Initially, this was done by what's called pre-training, which is when you just feed a bunch of data from the internet into the model. Now we have a second stage that's reinforcement learning or test time compute or reasoning or whatever you want to call it. I think of it as a second stage that involves reinforcement learning. Now both of those things are scaling up together, as we've seen with our models and as we've seen with models from other companies. I don't see anything blocking the further scaling of that. There's some stuff about how do we broaden the tasks on the RL side of it. We've seen more progress on, say, math and code, where the models are getting pretty close to a high professional level, and less on more subjective tasks, but I think that is very much a temporary obstacle. So when I look at it, I see this exponential and I say, look, people aren't very good at making sense of exponentials, right? Like, if something is doubling every 6 months, then 2 years before it happens, it looks like it's only 1/16th of the way there. And so we are sitting here in the middle of 2025, and the models are really starting to explode in terms of the economy. If you look at the capabilities of the model, they're starting to saturate all the benchmarks. If you look at revenue, and you know, Anthropic's revenue every year has grown 10x. Every year weโ€™re kind of conservative and we say, it canโ€™t grow 10x this time. I never assume anything and actually always am very conservative in saying I think it's going to slow down on the business side. But we went from zero to $100 million in 2023, we went from $100 million to $1 billion in 2024, and this year, in the first half of the year, we've gone from $1 billion to, I think as of speaking today, it's well above $4 billion, it might be $4.5 billion. And so if you think about it, suppose that exponential continued for 2 years. I'm not saying it will, but suppose it continued for 2 years. You're well into the $100 billions. I'm not saying that'll happen. I'm saying the situation is that when you're on an exponential, you can really get fooled by it. 2 years away from when the exponential goes totally crazy, it looks like it's just starting to be a thing. And so that's the fundamental dynamic. We saw that with the internet in the '90s, right? Where it was like networking speeds and the underlying speed of the computers were getting fast, and over a few years it became possible to have to basically build a digital global communications network on top of all this when it wasn't possible just a few years ago and and almost no one except for a few people really saw the implications of that and how fast it." - Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei

Back in March, Fede Gomez had hit rock bottom. He was on a huge losing streak and in a very dark place mentally, opening up in an emotional letter to his fans (posted below) about how he was not only considering retiring from tennis, but had even reached the point of contemplating suicide. Today, he just made the US Open main draw for the first time in his career. He came into Queens with major fitness and health concerns, having not played in over a month after being forced to retire with an injury vs Pavlovic. Qualifying for the main draw was a long shot, to say the least. In Round 1, he shocked Klein as a +550 underdog. In Round 2, he pulled another upset against rising star Cina as a +240 dog. In Round 3, he was down a set and 0-4 to Grenier The feel-good story of the tournament had almost surely come to a painful end. But Fede fought. With his back against the wall, he stormed back to win five of the next six games, miraculously getting the match back on serve Grenier managed to stop the bleeding at 5-5 and again put Gomez right up against it, needing a hold to keep his US Open dream alive He stared down match point at 5-6 30-40, one false move away from going home But Fede fought. And fought. Until he found himself celebrating in front of the frenzied crowd on Court 10, taking it all in after having completed the unlikeliest of comebacks to cap off one of the most magical qualifying runs youโ€™ll ever see Look how much it means. This was so much more than just a match It was undeniable proof of why you never, EVER give up. Tennis is the greatest sport in the world ๐Ÿฅฒ

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธ Mikel Arteta has to make changes for Crystal Palace. ๐Ÿ”„ โ€œDecember is the month where players get injured more than ever. If thereโ€™s one thing Mikel Arteta struggles with. It's rotation and Arsenal are paying the price for it right now. โ€œBenjamin White playing three games in a row straight off a long-term injury. That's pretty unnecessary. Gabriel playing a friendly when he reportedly wasn't 100%, that was questionable as well. โ€œSituation with Benjamin White, he's now out, Gabriel out, soon to return. Saliba not fully fit, even Mikel said that himself. He had to rush him back. That was a risk, which breeds more injuries. It's a vicious cycle. โ€œHincapie had an injury the other day against Everton, where Calafiori sort of like went into him and he even had to have like a look like a like a deep heat or something on on him like a bit of pain relief. โ€œSo he's probably not even look hundred percent. No one seemed to pull that up at the end of the match, but he didn't look like he was moving that comfortably. He did complete the 90 minutes. Of course, Mosquera. Another one who's not available. I feel like at the moment with Arsenal there's one position just gets absolutely pummeled. So at the moment, it's the defence. At the start of the season, it was all the strikers. So now we're packed up front, we're ruined in defence. So there's not many options. โ€œI read an article the other day where it said, December is the month where players they get injured more than ever because there's so many games, the load is so high, it's just it's just too much. โ€œI mean, even Bruno Fernandes of Manchester United, the most durable player in football pretty much, and he got injured from a hamstring the other night. It just goes to show what this period's like for the players. โ€œSo I think Mikel has a duty to look after the players, they just had a week off. It's the first week they've had off in since like international break and it's not going to change until February, so it's not going to stop. โ€œMikel has a duty to look after these players and make sure this doesn't derail our season. Arsenal haven't won the Carabao Cup since 1993, before I was even born. I've never seen us win it. I've always wanted us to win it, but I'm not going to get upset if we don't win it. I think Mikel's under a lot of pressure this season to bring home silverware but if it's not the Premier League or Champions League, it's going to be the same result. โ€œI think this match is a match for rotation. I think it's a match for Noni Maduweke, Ethan Wainieri. Marli Salmon, even Josh Nichols at right-back. Timber needs a rest. Saliba probably needs a rest. Hincapie may need a rest, given the extent of his injury. I think the players are on the limit at the moment. โ€œI think we're very close to being beyond the limit for Arsenal. We're in a very good position, thanks to Mikel and the players and the staff, everything right now. But let's not ruin that over a Carabao Cup. โ€œWe need to win a trophy, but a Carabao Cup isn't going to relieve the pressure on Mikel Arteta, I'm afraid. It's just not. You know what's coming if he wins it. Oh, he's not won the Champions League. He's not won the Premier League. Doesn't matter. โ€œObviously, it would be delightful to win. a trophy, like even when he won the FA Cup, he has won a trophy for Arsenal, major trophy, but that was a long time ago, and this season's the season in my opinion. โ€œHe needs to prioritise what matters for him. Here's a starting 11 I'd go with. Got Josh Nichols in there, Marli Salmon. I know Josh and that have been actually training with the first team ahead of this match, so. I wouldn't be surprised to see the likes of him in the squad. โ€œYou never know, he might start. Knowing Arteta though, he probably won't start, but I'd like to see him start. What's your opinion on it? Should Arteta rotate massively?โ€œ

๐ŸšจThe BIGGEST THREAT in the WORLD is NATO. โ€ผ๏ธNever Forget that Vladimir Putin Was Only Asking About: ๐Ÿ”ดDonโ€™t expand NATO eastward ๐Ÿ”ดRespecting Minsk agreements ๐Ÿ”ดKeep Ukraine neutral. ๐ŸšจFact: NATO Cannot Exist Without an Enemy. ๐ŸšจIt needs warsโ€”for its budget, for weapons, for control. ๐ŸšจThe alliance's hatred of Russia is not political, but historicalโ€”it's ingrained in its very structure. ๐ŸšจPutin says the current crisis in Ukraine is a direct result of years of aggressive NATO policies. ๐ŸšจNATO Didn't Want Russia Because NATO Wanted a WAR With Russia ๐ŸšจFrom 2001 all the way to 2022, 21 years, NATO moved inexorably East, surrounding Russia. ๐ŸšจThe Ukraine - Russian War Was Provoked! ๐ŸšจTucker Carlson: Putin did not start this war. ๐ŸšจThis was not, "An unprovoked invasion." "Putin just randomly went over the line into Eastern Ukraine and stole these oblasts. He stole this land that belonged to another people." ๐ŸšจThat's a lie, and it's not a defense of Putin to call it everybody knows it now. The truth is that in 2001, Putin, same guy, same leader, asked the Bush Administration, in person, directly to George W. Bush, ๐Ÿšจ"I would like to join NATO. I would like to join the defensive alliance that exists to keep me from moving West into Western Europe." ๐ŸšจPUTIN: Two Times That We Were Ready to Join NATO.

That's his JOB. The way to end this war is to say publicly, "NATO enlargement was a mistake, it was a provocation, it was a threat to Russia's security." โ–ถJeffrey Sachs: Russia is not going to stop fighting as long as NATO enlargement is on the table. This is the basic reason why we are at war. โ–ถProf. John Mearsheimer: NATO Expansion Was Really the Key. Ukraine was becoming a de facto member of NATO. โ–ถLarry C.

The film tells the story of the emergence of the Western military alliance. NATO's true goal was "to keep the Russians out of Europe," as stated by the alliance's first Secretary General, Hastings Ismay. Officially, however, the bloc was declared to ensure global security in the post-war world. In 1955, in opposition to NATO, the USSR and its allies created the Warsaw Pact. It was the only restraining force standing in the way of the alliance. For nearly half a century, a fragile peace prevailed in Europe. After the collapse of the USSR, the North Atlantic bloc carried out dozens of destructive military operations in various parts of the world, systematically advancing toward Russia's borders by admitting new members. Yugoslavia became the first major "testing ground." Under the guise of a "humanitarian operation," the US dropped thousands of bombs on civilian homes, bridges, and factories. NATO members poisoned people with depleted uranium and sold their organs. The invasion of the Middle East by the United States, NATO's main ally, in Syria, Libya, and Iraq has reduced cities to rubble, leaving survivors homeless, without a homeland, and without a future. In the 1980s and 1990s, Western leaders verbally assured Moscow that NATO's military infrastructure would not advance eastward. In practice, the alliance's borders gradually moved closer to Russia. NATO deployed more and more missiles in Eastern European countries. Today, the alliance is discussing the right to "preventive action"โ€”the ability to attack Russia without pretext or a declaration of war. The proposal was made by Germany, the country responsible for starting the First and Second World Wars. The nuclear threat no longer seems abstract.

You wake. The frost is on the ground. You are a serf. You cannot leave your village without permission. You cannot marry without permission. You cannot sell your own labour. The land you work belongs to a lord you have never met. Your father was a serf. His father was a serf. You have been told your son will be a serf too. So you were told. But something had cracked ๐Ÿ’” The Black Death had taken half of England thirty years before. Labour was scarce. Wages had risen. For three decades, ordinary people had been quietly getting richer. The powerful hated it. Every law they made, the people walked around. Then John of Gaunt, the king's uncle and the richest man in England, taxed every adult the same shilling to pay for the war in France ๐Ÿ’ฐ The Poll Tax. In four years, they tried it three times. The third one was one too many. In May 1381, a tax commissioner arrived in the Essex village of Fobbing. The villagers drove him out. The king sent soldiers. The villagers drove them out too. You hear what happened at Fobbing. You hear what happened next. Essex rose first. Then Kent. Then the eastern counties. Villages emptied. In Kent, a man called Wat Tyler took command โš”๏ธ His first move was to break open Maidstone Prison and free a radical priest called John Ball. By the time they reached Blackheath, just south of the Thames, they were 50,000 strong. That night, John Ball climbed onto a cart and asked a question that would echo for 600 years: "When Adam delved and Eve span, who was then the gentleman?" ๐Ÿ“œ They burned the Savoy Palace ๐Ÿ”ฅ Gaunt escaped on horseback to Scotland. The next morning, the king rode out to meet them. Richard II. Fourteen years old. Just a boy on a horse, in front of 50,000 armed peasants. He agreed to everything. End serfdom. End forced labour. End the Poll Tax. He had clerks write charters of freedom sealed with the royal seal ๐Ÿ‘‘ You hold one in your hands. Freedom. You have won. The next day at Smithfield, the Lord Mayor of London stabbed Wat Tyler in the throat ๐Ÿ—ก๏ธ The king rode forward alone and persuaded the crowd to follow him out of London. Then he revoked every promise. "Serfs you are. And serfs you shall remain." 1,500 rebels were executed. John Ball was hanged, drawn and quartered at St Albans. The king was there to see it. The dream is dead. Or so it looks. But they thought they had lost. They had not ๐Ÿ“œ The Poll Tax was never collected again in their lifetime. Or their children's lifetime. It would be 609 years before any government in England dared to try it again. Within a hundred years, serfdom in England had effectively died out. Not because the powerful chose to free their people. Because the powerful had learned what happened when they refused ๐Ÿ›๏ธ The lesson did not die. The Putney Debates. The Levellers. The Chartists. The Tolpuddle Martyrs. The Suffragettes. Every uprising drew on what happened at Smithfield. In 1990, a Prime Minister tried to bring the Poll Tax back. 200,000 people marched on London again. Following the same route the peasants took 600 years earlier. The tax was withdrawn within a year. Within months, the Prime Minister was gone. The powerful learned the same lesson. They always learn the same lesson. Every right we have today was taken, not given. By people like the 50,000 on Blackheath. ๐Ÿ“– Read the full story, get the lesson plan, share the facts โ†’ โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ”โ” They are still here ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ฅ๓ ฎ๓ ง๓ ฟ In every protest.
