don't know where the Marx stuff came from, it's just decent people not being racist, unlike these idiots

It's a bit of misdirection originating from the Trump presidency. A couple of the founding members of BLM said they were "trained Marxists", so people like Giuliani leapt on it and claimed: "Oh, look: BLM's Marxist.". Given the US's "Reds under the beds" history, this gave Republicans an excuse to not only ignore BLM but paint it as the enemy.

Now it's being copied here: certain England "fans" who'd have previously thrown bananas on the pitch and made monkey chants can now boo players "taking a knee" and claim: "Oh, we're not racist: we just oppose the players supporting a Marxist organization.".

In reality, support for BLM broadened very quickly, and "taking a knee" predates BLM by a long way... But as I said: misdirection...

SOMETHING FOR THE SPIDER LOVERS🕷
👉🏞A sea of cobwebs has blanketed a Gippsland town last week lashed by flooding.

👉🏞In a phenomenon unwelcome to arachnophobes called ballooning, cooler weather conditions have seen spiders covering stretches of the Longford area in cloudlike cobwebs as they attempt to shelter themselves from wet conditions on the ground.
