  1. Growing up through the 90s, my parents had a combined income of about 12k. We were poor but we weren't in poverty. We had what we needed and never went without. Now, in my 30s, I'm on 25k. I barely break even each month.

  2. She's owed an apology and that rule needs to be taken off the books. Along with any other rule that enshrines some kind of special status for MPs. While some have conducted themselves (by and large) honourably, their collective conduct has shown them to be undeserving.

  3. Anytime I hear someone spouting the nonsense line that "there aren't any positive masculine role models other than these guys"... erm, Keanu Reeves? If you really think Tate is manlier and more positive than Reeves, I can't help you.

  4. As an entertainer, wasn't really my cuppa. But as a person, his values were in the right place and he acted on them. He was good people and will be missed.

  6. There's such incredible insecurity to Tate fanbois. Everything about their attitude towards masculinity and achievement is inescapably tied to grand "look at me" displays. So sad that these men desperately need the attention of others.

  7. Absolutely and I love Dempsey's response on that one; "nurses should be getting more". And that's not the fault of unions that are trying to get their workers a better shout.

  15. ​ @test-bu8sw Funny, as the only person here making assumptions is you. While walking away is always one option, staying and working to change things is another. I'm English, born and bred. I despair at the state of this nation. But it's as much mine as anyone's and I'm damned if I'll let anyone push me out. I'm staying and pushing for positive change. What are you doing?

  16. While I appreciate a lot of what Ali is saying here, I don't agree with him about the statues. For one thing, most people don't read up on stuff. You put a plaque somewhere nearby the statue giving an "alternative" view, that's not doing anything. Vast majority of people just see a statue of a bloke and, because of how our brains work and our culture's developed, we see that as a celebration of the person. And it's not a matter of preserving history. We don't need statues to remember our history and they really don't help anyway because statues rarely ever have ANY kind of context or nuance to them. And to use an easy example - I've never seen a statue of Hitler but there's no way I'm ever forgetting who he was or what he did. We shouldn't enshrine individuals like that, it's unhealthy. Because then you're not celebrating the deeds or the ideas but just the person themselves, and people accept that wholesale. So get rid of Churchill's statue. We have WW2 memorials to everyone who fought and died, everyone who laboured for the homefront effort, the people who rallied together and helped each other through... and we can replace Churchill statues with more of those if people want! But stop lionising a white supremacist.

  17. £5 coffees... do me a favour! I don't drink coffee. I don't run a car. My phone is as basic as I can get and most of my clothes are several years old and starting to fall apart. I work full time in a warehouse, I take home approximately £1,600 per month. I rent privately. When I moved in, 2022, rent was £825 a month. Its now £950. THAT is the problem. THAT is why so many of us are struggling. Its got naff all to do with coffees I don't buy and everything to do with living costs increasing beyond worker's wages.

She hasn't even got bluster, she isn't witty enough to evade questions or come across as sympathetic. She just comes across as a tool. Politicians who don't have brains desperately need to rely on their charisma and character. She has neither.

  22. ​ @paddymeboy  You don't think that's happening now? Captialism is in a death spiral. Inflation devalues wealth, costs go up so consumers have to cut back on spending. Less spending, less companies making enough money. Those companies fold, people lose jobs, even more consumers are having to cut back even more spending. The cycle worsens.

  26. ​ @danw5760 If it makes you feel better, you can add it to the list of performative actions taken by this government to give the illusion of action. Of course, you could also consider that the purpose of a lock down isn't to simply prevent people walking outside, nor did it. I took the dog for a long walk everyday during lockdown. The point was to try and stop thousands of people spending their weekends milling around crowded shopping centres and such, because that definitely WOULD reduce viral transmission in a meaningful way. Gets very tricky to start giving everyone the specifics of when's and where's, though.

  30.  @nothereandthereanywhere  In my town, it would be. For a flat, you'd be looking at least between £800-£900. And that's for a cheap flat in poor condition. Add council tax, bills and food on top of that? No way you could do it on 12k.

We, the public, need to support workers in speaking truth to power so that it can be resolved quickly and fairly. You want to make out like Mick and the RMT strikers are just greedy, what you're either ignorant of or willfully omitting is that the people demonising them and trying to set us against the workers are the greediest, most corrupt in our whole society. We ALL deserve a fairer shout, not to let the Torys and their supporters turn us against each other.

Big dictator chap, no tolerance for liberal nonsense, iron fist and all that... horrendous crime problem.

I'll be totally honest, I feel a shred of awe at the confidence these men must have. I'm certainly not that that bold and I'd like to think, if I were, that I'd use such boldness in a more worthwhile way. Seriously guys, just don't.

  54.  @Dan_1348  Massive salaries have not been shown to attract fantastic people. It HAS been shown to attract immoral, greedy people who'll cut regulations and staff levels to the bone if it makes them a bit more profit. These are people for whom there can never be enough, so they'll seek to take and take at exponentially higher rates.

  67. 100%, we've got a political system that attacks those with decent intentions and empowers those only present to fill their pockets. I like Mhairi Black, I'm not Rayner's biggest fan but I appreciate her fire. Surely we could have a political system that empowers these people to do what they're there for.

  81.  @vespasian266  He literally accused people of being "silly", spending all their money and then blaming the government for it. Whereas the reality was that the government's actions caused cost of living to soar. So what actually happened was that the government was "silly" and they cost us our money. Are you getting this?

  84.  @Solus94  I was at the march for peace today. It was enormous, hundreds of thousands of people. Didn't hear anyone shout "jihad". Didn't see any placards about it. Saw plenty of Jewish people marching for peace alongside everyone else. The only mention I heard of Hamas was when multiple speakers condemned their actions and called for the release of the hostages.

  85. I only disagree in that I think she should just be removed from her position. Totally unfit for public service.

  86. I'm a bit concerned by the green belt bit. Partly 'cos I'm a hippie, I have concerns regarding further destruction of animal habitat and further damage to our environment. I also question if it's practical. How many people living in such an area will also be working in said area? If they're having to commute further then that's further environmental impact and additional costs to the residents. We NEED more housing but I think we also need to look really hard at how efficiently we're using brown-field sites within our towns and cities. EDIT: I'm also really interested in what Oli mentioned at the end but didn't have time to go into. I think we need a really hard look at restructuring of just HOW we live within this world and I'd love to hear more on that topic. Anyone know where I could start learning more?

I've heard Tate talk. I've heard his supporters talk. I've listened to that side. So there's nothing to justify, either. For someone trying to dunk on me for not wanting to listen to opposing views, its highly ironic that you're trying to put so many words in my mouth. Try making less assumptions about what people think and instead listen to what they're actually saying. But thanks for getting so defensive as to evidence my comment about insecurity.

I think what people like your friend needs is better education, to be able to recognise grifters like Tate and Peterson for what they are. Because guys like them, they're seeking out marks. Good role models are busy doing their thing, they ain't gonna look for you, but these two guys just wanna sell you crap.

  142.  @jacksonsportsnetwork3407  You're completely missing the point which is, even if someone WAS spending that much on coffee, it really wouldn't make a difference to their ability to save a deposit. It's not the price of coffee that's making homes unaffordable.

  143. Hear hear. My hometown used to boast several small locally run cafes. Providing jobs, putting wages in the pocket of people who lived in the community and that money would stay circulating largely within the community. Sustainable. But the McDonalds grew, then Burger King and KFC arrived, the coffee shops started turning up, with multiple shops of the same franchise literally within a few minutes walk of each other... the local family bakery AND the pie shop both gone, now we have a dozen Greggs. It's not JUST on these entities, there's a human consumer element at play too. People sacrifice values on the altar of convenience. But it all parallels with our loss of cultural character AND the volume of litter skyrocketed. I do litterpicks in me own time (not so much at this time of year) and the vast majority of litter I find around the town is fast food and coffee shop detritus.

You say we shouldn't judge her as we don't know her... what kind of soft apologist nonsense is that? She's Prime Minister of the country, a role she wanted and fought for. It's not unreasonable for us to expect a minimum level of competence. Which leads us onto your claim that she "has not had any actions that have impacted on anyone". Bit of an odd sentence structure but we'll roll with it... that's a bare-faced lie, unless you've had your eyes closed and your fingers in your ears for the last couple weeks. She's absolutely tanked the economy. It wasn't in great condition anyway, thanks to 12 years of Tory mismanagement, but she took a struggling situation and made it significantly worse, just to throw a boon to her big business buddies. What possible defense have you got for that?

Cromwell didn't create the world's first elected parliament, he was also a mass murdering monster with no regard for human rights in the slightest. Which brings us to the fact that the proliferation in human rights over the last century actually coincides with the rise of secularism.

Which is why, respectfully, I didn't see the need to ask you. =P What I'm talking about is male role models who embody typically masculine traits while rejecting the selfish, greedy and domineering traits oft associated with masculinity, amongst others. Traits that are embraced and encouraged by figures like Tate, who frames women as an acquisition, or Peterson, who frames them as a chaotic force that needs to be bound by social hierarchy (read: patriarchy), are negative influences on men in society. I'm not saying "be like Reeves so women will want you", I'm saying "be like Reeves so that you're a positive member of your community". Because he's a thoughtful, respectful and compassionate man. Who also happens to be one of the greatest badasses of our generation. He proves that you can be as stereotypically "manly" as you like with muscles, guns, cars, fighting and all that... without being a total arse like Tate or an insidious control freak like Peterson.

  186.  @grtcara8386  You're missing the point. Labour under Starmer have become Tories by another name. So voting for them is just voting for more of the same.

Certainly, I've read a couple of feminist philosophers who don't feel he fits the mark of "misogynist". What's undeniable is that he holds and promotes deeply archaic views around gender and roles. So I don't think it's misunderstanding Peterson that leads people to accuse him of misogyny. It's the things he says. And I don't think an argument that boils down to "I can't be racist, I have black friends" is the stunning counter-argument you seem to think it is.

  301. I used to work as a theatre techie and Brand came to perform at my venue. I was about 19, so this would have been circa 2008. Before the show, Brand had a queue of girls outside his dressing room and they were being let in one or two at a time. We all knew what was going on in there. And I know that many of those girls were under 18. We didn't say anything 'cos it seemed clear to us that it would've been our word against his management but I regret that now. I know that doesn't really have any relevance on whether he's left or right, a loon or a genius... but I think it's something worth knowing about him.

  311. Because all "cancelled" really means is that people are tired of that person's nonsense, their comments or behaviour. It means there's not much audience for that person anymore. You'll see it more with artists because it's a bigger deal to them. Having an audience defines what they do. For this lot, they are their own audience and the money flows differently. It doesn't matter if we, as a society, tell them we're sick of their trash.

So what I'm getting at is that the oldest and most dominant aspect of our political system is teeming with corruption, that engages with media figures like Murdoch and lobbyists like the Kochs to create this toxic culture we're faced with.

You yourself have offered no substance in your denial. Despite what you say, you're the one arguing based upon your imaginary definitions.

  381. I agreed with the point about a minister for mental health. But I also think, within that umbrella you'd need "departments" to try and deal with different groups within society, as sensitively as possible, because there will be ranges of factors and differing approaches required. I also didn't really agree with the other points Ava went on to make, but that might just be my own experiences colouring it. It's not often but this was one of those times I found myself agreeing more with Norcott. Or rather, I thought he brought up an interesting point that should be further explored. Most importantly, though, the idea that she was smirking or making light of male suicide is totally dishonest. She smiled because Norcott made a comedic comment to lighten tension somewhat. Because he's a comedian! If she's getting pilloried for "smirking" why isn't Norcott getting picked on for cracking a joke? To be clear, Norcott has nothing to apologise for here either. Not a damn thing. Whether I agree with Ava or not, the point is that Fox didn't even bother engaging with her opinions at all and reduced her value down to simply a sex object. That's what is sick about this, Fox wants to pretend like this is a serious issue for him but when the opportunity comes up he's got nothing to actually say on it. Just some childish remark. Rank excuse for a man.

You've also walked back your definition a bit. Initially you asserted that woke "had a net negative effect on the society", which is an interesting take, but now you're saying its merely "perceived as detrimental to the society by some".

    2
  392.  @birchthebirch4593  That's not even close to an answer. And just so you know, King Arthur is a work of fiction. Might be why it's not seen as worth teaching at primary or secondary level. But hey, if you want to focus your studies on mythology... All I'm getting from this is that you have a very, VERY narrow view of what English culture is and it's based on concepts and traits that are less than a hundred years old.
    2
  393.  @birchthebirch4593  Except you aren't spanning 900 years. You're pointing to a brief period in the 40s, which was very different to the generations preceeding it and very different to the ones that followed. Really making me question your claim about being a student of history, since you should know this. It's not really anything to be English beyond what we each make it. To say otherwise just means you've only recently left your safe little bubble.
    2
  394.  @birchthebirch4593  It's good that ain't your goal 'cos I think you're lying about it. Especially when you throw out a word like "allegory" in a context where it doesn't make much sense. My point was pretty clear; "British" culture has changed many, many times over the centuries. It varies greatly by region and by class. It cannot be defined so neatly, like you tried to with your example from one little pub in the 40s. And its funny you claim to not be clear on what my point was, since you've certainly changed your angle to try and compensate.

  432. Yeah, I broadly agree. As I've said to others, I get that this particular male issue has profound negative effects on women. I think there's value in hearing a couple of takes on those effects from women. Despite the name, "home truths" rarely, if ever, come from inside the house. But I totally get what you're saying about it being limited in regards to finding solutions, that this problem is systemic more than or at least as much as it is individual and that it really can feel like an attack to already-vulnerable men who make up the core audience for these amoral, alt-right grifters. So yeah, next step is to broaden the panel.

  453.  @50_Pence  Such as? If you're confident in your opinion then why are you being mysterious?
    2
  454.  @PeaceDweller  You said that what one person finds abhorrent is perfectly normal to others. And the context in which you said it can only be a defence of Tate. Don't play dumb.
    2
  455.  @mokesangnem  Oh, I was gonna make the same point as Neil did. Your claim was just laughably ridiculous.
    2
  456.  @Matthewknightg  Haha! No, they didn't.
    2
  457. ​ @stanr8946 That's an outright lie.
    2
  458.  @stanr8946  What I've done is point out that Israel had already broken whatever ceasefire existed. You can't refute, counter or admit that.
    2
  459. Because the USA and Russia abused the entire world with their warmongering for decades. Now they want out, after helping stack the wood and soak it with petrol.

  466. What's that got to do with her opinions on the issue of male suicide?
    2
  467.  @eyup121  Using it to justify atrocities. That's what wrong with it. If you're a strong person, but you spend your time using that strength to put down, intimidate and otherwise oppress people around you, what are you? We have lots of words for someone like that but the most apt is probably "bully".

  471. "How dare they make us look bad by showing footage of us looking bad!"
    2
  472. That's not the full story though, is it? You're not mentioning how public figures from the different cultures came together in calling out the riots, helping end them. And that video shows that the event isn't a spectre hanging over the city.
    2
  473.  @PWMoze  Except the gaslighting is effectively what you're doing. People are telling you it's not their major concern but you're rejecting that and insisting that it is...
    2
  474.  @PWMoze  You're not suggesting, you're outright stating. Without any evidence to support your argument. So you can blather on till the cows come home. The actual fact is that PolJoe have bothered to go out and gather evidence while you're just insisting you're right and they're wrong.
    2
  475.  @PWMoze  As a general rule, I never follow links people throw into YouTube content. Just good sense. And you're just not getting this. Of the people who were polled, which is already a small fraction of the population, less people were concerned about immigration than voted for Brexit, a referendum sold heavily on the matter of controlling immigration. So when you try and insist that this video is disingenuous for how it's portraying the issue, all you're doing is showing your own bias. And throughout this comment thread, you've doubled down on it. You can't accept what doesn't fit your expectations.
    2
  476.  @PWMoze  Falling back on immigration fears is traditionally a right wing tactic...

  480.  @scottp4357  You believe this because we've built ourselves on a system of pure greed. It seems like many, many people are getting fed up of being led by the nose by a greedy few.
    2
  481. Not really. You don't know much of anything about any of the channel's other viewers, so you've got no grounds making that assertion.

  486. I'm not sure you realise that there are barely any WW2 vets still alive. Because that's not who the young lady was referring to. She's referring to the generation that followed them, that never had to fight for anything yet benefitted heavily from those who did.

  489.  @haeuptlingaberja4927  While Nazism was built around this fantasy of the Aryan mythology and delusions of a master race, British fascism fooled itself into thinking a restoration of Tudor/Cromwellian values would set British society on the desired path.
    2
  490.  @haeuptlingaberja4927  Then I'll point you towards the work of Robert Evans.
    2
  491.  @haeuptlingaberja4927  Okay.
    2
  492. Nah, you're pushing this negative stereotype that working class people are uneducated. That's rubbish.
    2
  493.  @matthewdean6060  Yeah, I'm working class too, never got any A levels or higher. And yeah, some people can be really condescending and patronising. Being good with words doesn't actually make one right. But turning a personal feeling of inferiority into a generalised stereotype that punches down really ain't the way to go. If you feel out of your depth on some matters, educate yourself. You've got the Internet at your disposal.

  494. I love the irony of wanting to control the movement of people outside the UK but being outraged at the notion someone could control their own movement.

  496. You've got dark money coming from religious lunatics to oppose something. But no, you think the video should be fair to both sides. Grow up...
    2
  497.  @Debs9150  It's kinda funny how you start by saying you didn't see any while you were there, then you state confidently that the police provoked it. If you didn't see it, how do you know?
    2
  498.  @tropics8407  How much of that is down to inflation, and it's worth checking whether an apparent increase is actually just restoring spending previously cut.

  499. There's audio evidence of Tate admitting to rape. Oops, that's awkward...

    2
  503.  @michaelcarney6280  Right, your comment was deleted. And your dog ate your homework.
    2
  504. Understand what? That Labour is being steered by people whose only interest is gaining power and influence?
    2
  505.  @jamescooke6032  Then what's the point of being in power?
    2
  506. ... so you're voting for Reform? Why do you think they'll bring change?
    2
  507. If you're pushing for a national identity based upon racial traits, you're far right.
    2
  508. See, your mistake was thinking Carlson is a journalist. He ain't, he's a performer.
    2
  509.  @fredgarvinMP  Prove me wrong. Oh, wait. You can't.
    2
  510. Very much so. But I think it goes far beyond simply losing an audience. As a consumer-driven capitalist society, we've been circling the drain for a while. Cost of living goes up, wages don't, and people steadily find themselves unable to "consume". If no-one can afford to buy the products, companies fail. People lose jobs, becoming poorer, with even less purchasing power, and things get exponentially worse until a total collapse. This is where unchecked capitalism and infinite growth gets us.
    2
  511. ​@TomRipley7350No, you don't.
    2
  512. I recommend voting Greens if you can. Okay, they're more left wing than your own stayed position. But they're pushing for PR voting, proportional representation, rather than our broken FPtP system, which would be a win for all of us.
    2
  513. Erm... what?
    2
  514. That's a really valid point that I've not considered before. Often, with the "we've lost our community/culture" argument, I feel like we sold it down the river in favour of quick and easy convenience, courtesy of capitalism. But I think your point is closer to the mark
    2
  515. Yeah, that's a whole lotta rubbish. Jog on.
    2
  516. By that logic, surely they should support Starmer.
    2
  517. I worked for a while as a "barista" in a small independent cafe. Now, I don't drink coffee myself, never been a fan. But it quickly occurred to me that all the people buying fancy lattes with all the syrups and toppings don't actually like coffee either, since they try very hard to get a drink that tastes nothing like it.
    2
  518.  @TheHonestJock  Did you just completely ignore my last comment? Did you understand what I was saying? Just because you insist that facts don't matter, doesn't change the reality.
    2
  519.  @pjmlfc05  Its functioning as a detention center. You figure it out.
    2
  520. Why do you think it's positive to be having conversations with Tucker Carlson? Has that man not shown you well enough by now who he is?
    2
  521. Vote Green, signal the desire for PR to replace FPtP.
    2
  522. By "healthy and powerful" you of course mean "profitable for the ultra wealthy". Free market policies are destructive to societies and the wellbeing of its citizens.
    2
  523. ​ @laganas2008 How about when Robinson tweeted a young lass, saying that he thought she was "pretty fit for a Muslim". The girl in question was 15. Yeah.
    2
  524.  @laganas2008  And religion doesn't affect appearance, yet Robinson used it as a qualifier to judge her appearance. So what, do you think, did he actually meant when he said "Muslim"? Interesting how you ignored the part where he's being a nonce...
    2
  525.  @randyvalantino6850  "like hotels and holidays homes"... what planet are you living on? Private rentals are all that's available for so many, so that's what we get.
    2
  526.  @randyvalantino6850  A lot of people have to live in private rentals for most their lives. You seem to have a very narrow view of where and how private rentals are provided. While the private landlord isn't responsible for council housing, it doesn't change the fact that they are the only option for so many working class people.
    2
  527. All of you saying its a wasted vote are contributing to a self fulfilling prophecy. Remember that when you go and cast your vote to enable a two-party system that takes us for fools.

  529. ​ @CB-dl1vg PolJoe is pretty firmly centre-left. If I want radical leftism, there's actual outlets for that.
    2
  530. Why do you think he isn't? To me, he seems very keen to push the idea of national identity tied to racial traits. Which is far right.

  538. Opposing Nazism was the one thing he definitely did right.
    2
  539. ​ @Behindstage No, that's rubbish. He's saying this because he believes it but, more importantly, because he knows that the people he's been elected to represent believe it. To say that he's causing division by doing his job and representing the people marks you as a very curious individual, to say the least...
    2
  540. Starmer's Labour aren't left-wing and don't have support from lefties, so no. Yes, Labour are pretty corrupt. But they're no different from the Tories, Lib Dems or Reform in that regard.
    2
  541. Sadly so. There's a bunch of them round where I live, on sunny days they gather on one of the big roundabouts with their placards conflating environmental policy with fascist dictatorships. Which, given how much petrol fumes they huff all afternoon, is very funny to me.

  547. @TomRipley7350 Most of what you just said is a lie. But its funny that you end with "anyone who wants to limit the scope of enquiry is not to be taken seriously". When that's literally want Trump is doing with this move.
    2
  548. @TomRipley7350 He's doing the opposite and you know it. Funny how you're also conflating the Democrat party with leftism. Just makes you sound like a clueless sycophant. Is that accurate?

  549. Those fallen heroes were lied to and used by an uncaring establishment. The same establishment that hides behind pomp and ceremony. Sod the national anthem, it's a crass relic. Respect to Flynn for standing by his principles.

  550. ​@dogglebird4430He did once make a comment about undesirables being forced to live in tents in a field, picking vegetables. That's pretty concentration camp-y.
    2
  551. @dogglebird4430 Yeah, thought you'd like that. Looking across the board at Anderson's political history, he actually ticks quite a few boxes of the wannabe fascist-lite. I don't think he's got the courage for actual direct action but he's probably got it in him to be a cheerleader. He switched sides 'cos he found he had more in common with the other side's hardliners, which has strong Mussolini energy. He opposes foreign aid, likes the afore-mentioned idea of concentration camps for "undesirables", was investigated for antisemitism and found wanting, still likes pushing antisemitic conspiracies, staged political PR, accuses cultural institutions he doesn't like of "cultural marxism" (which is yet more antisemitism), doesn't like gestures of inter-racial solidarity, outright stated that equal rights on racial grounds goes against his values... I'm on a teabreak at work so please understand I literally don't have time right now to keep going but this is just the start of a surface-level examination. So any of these other views leaping out to you as appealing?

  573. @left_blank About how society is set up for the poor. You said it yourself, the council couldn't give a toss about people. Its the same pretty much throughout the country, and if you're poor you don't have any recourse but to accept it. There are no options. So in what way does that reflect a society set up for the poor?

  586.  @cynicalpenguin  So true. It's not enough to simply hope that someone will invent a perfectly clean energy source, to ensure we don't have to change anything about how we live. We actually do need to look at our habits closely and make changes that way. No, getting a "bag-for-life" isn't gonna change the world... but if everyone reduced how much they used their cars for short journeys, that'd have a big impact.

And while she'd happily tell you about some absolutely useless teachers she worked with, more than anything she slams lack of support. No funding, teachers having to cover subjects they haven't trained in, schools being run more like businesses than educational institutions.

So many people who go round gobbing off about how "proud to be British" they are, argue in favour of a cultural identity almost as alien to me as Mongolian culture is.

So explain that one with your weak and vaguely defined nonsense.

  612. I'm not sure what you mean by "wake up". If you're referring to Israel, I'm not sure its a fair statement. Israel does not represent all Jewish people and most descendents of persecuted people don't go on to perpetrate crimes against humanity.

  640. ​ @awolf913 You're conflating biological sex with genders. That's incorrect. Gender is a social construct, proven by the fact that different cultures have different views on genders and gender roles. This means that gender is actually entirely fluid and changeable, either as a term or as a lived state. When it comes to biological sex, it's a spectrum. Assume two extremes at either end; super masculinity and super femininity. But no two people are the same and not everyone is gonna fit that extreme model. So they are spread across the spectrum. Mostly, you'll have two large clusters leaning towards those "extreme" examples but the fact is biological sex is not a binary state.
    2
  641.  @awolf913  You're not understanding. It is their individual biology that determines how masculine or feminine they are. And you might as well ask "Why have a light spectrum? Just have black and white". We have a spectrum because that's what it is. To insist otherwise is to deny reality. You're really not at all informed on the science you claim supports you, huh?
    2
  642.  @awolf913  That's hilariously incorrect.
    2
  643.  @awolf913  No, I'm comparing the light spectrum to the biological sex spectrum, as two examples of plainly variable states as opposed to simple binary states. Gender is the societal construct, not biological sex.

  645.  @clairee4939  Excuse me? In your other comment you suggest Britain's success can be attributed to them being "god fearing" and spreading Christianity. Given that said spreading was typically done with musketshot or the lash of a whip, that's a pretty gross view of Christianity. Yet you say other people are hateful revisionists for wanting to speak frankly about Britain's colonial past? That's a real twisted take.

    2
  659.  @doghouseriley4732  Interesting rant. Peterson's "basic rules" are exactly that. You'll find the same advice given in a plethora of self-help publications, schools or just down the pub. No-one is denying their value. But recognising their value does not make one profound and wise. You said yourself, his BEST advice is that... life is tough? Something that most people learn on their first day in the schoolyard, if they weren't fortunate enough to learn it from their parents prior. Something so self-evident that to hold it up as a revelation is, frankly, a bit embarrassing. So, does Peterson have a solution for misguided and misplaced hatred? Because you state so confidently that a critic of Peterson's does nothing in their life to help anyone. That's such a daft statement that speaks volumes to your ignorance of other people and the lives they lead. How do you know if someone does something helpful and of value to others? What insight do you have to make that judgement?

Not only are they terrible for their workers, their fleets of drivers are often dangerous, they create an extra level of carbon footprint and their whole business model is destroying local business.

And I KNOW you haven't read it, otherwise you'd be specifically citing his error and giving context. Instead, you're referring to someone else. While it's inarguable that Ali is doing this interview to promote his new book, the contents of his book are only relevant to this discussion if he draws directly upon them. Which he does not do. So what parts of Churchill's "legacy", discussed in this interview, are factual errors or sourced from Peaky Blinders?
    2
  688.  @stewie7338  No, dead wrong. I think the concept of "British values" is deeply flawed as its almost wholly subjective. That's the point I'm getting at by asking people to explain what they think British values are. You, for example, cited values formalised by European thinkers but ultimately representative of what the vast majority of people want in their lives, regardless of where they're from. So calling them "British values" is either short-sighted or just plain arrogant. And I pointed out that there are people in this very video expressing conservative Christian values that are contrary to what you're claiming.

  692.  @drcommonsense1  Don't get me wrong, I'm a pretty firm believer in ACAB. But I've observed footage from numerous "patriotic" events like this and there's a strong trend of inebriated and frustrated men turning up to beat their chest and get into shoving matches.

  718.  @test-bu8sw  No, because... you're not getting it, are you? You don't get to decide, for the other people, that there is no community. That's the irony. You're calling someone else out for speaking on others behalf, while nominating yourself the deciding factor on whether such a community exists. It does, by the way, because people experience it. You can't speak for them.
    2
  719. Yeah, "too much amber" means that... she has to consider whether the client ACTUALLY wants this. So I don't see it as her just wanting to ramp things up, she's actually being considerate of the physical and mental health of her client.

  720. ​ @iamjurell If your kid has gotten lung cancer through smoking then they're already in breach of the law. If your adult offspring got lung cancer through smoking then that's the consequence of a choice they made so I'm sorry but also... freedoms, responsibilities and consequences.

  721.  @iamjurell  Save a lot on pension payments and NHS care for the elderly though, innit. You factored that into your cost to the NHS? Because people been smoking since always and it ain't what devastated the NHS. Also, your leap from smoking being legal to a completely unregulated market is dumb.
    2
  722. Simply not true. Especially when you consider that actual neo-Narsties are coming out and celebrating it. THEY think it is a Narstie salute, so to say it "clearly" isn't is objectively wrong. Then you have to consider the context of who Musk has been promoting and praising in recent months; a looot of neo-Narsties.

  725.  @maxmaritime1206  You've not explained what you mean by British culture, nor did you address our own role in this. See, I guarantee that you and I have very different notions of what it means to be English and love your country. And I know you're no more English than I. This is why you're being asked to establish what you mean by British culture. I want to know whether your perspective is narrow or considered.
    2
  726.  @maxmaritime1206  You haven't answered my question. It's relevant, because the culture of the UK changed considerably throughout the last century, as it did the century before that and so on. And it will continue to change as time passes. I challenge you to define your sense of British or English culture, so as to demonstrate how young it is. And how silly you're being about it. Traitors indeed. Also, it's one word, no hyphen. And you write like someone who's getting ChatGPT to do all their drafts, seriously...
    2
  727.  @maxmaritime1206  Yet I didn't hyphenate the word and no such "censorship" has occurred. And don't flatter yourself, there's nothing difficult to understand in what you're saying. It's just that it's mostly empty rambling. All you're saying is that you think it's terrible if cultures get erased. You never addressed my previous points about how we've actually erased our own culture. You just restated yourself. Funny, that. And now you're seeking an emergency exit because you don't have anything to say or to challenge what you're presented with.

    2
  732. What pro-terrorist marches?
    2
  733. ​ @automaticasthmatic You couldn't be more wrong about them. Those marches are pro-ceasefire and anti-killing kids with indiscriminate bombardments. The speakers on these marches routinely condemn Hamas, call for the release of hostages and for a peaceful resolution and end to conflict. I know this because I've been on them. So I know you're lying.
    2
  734. If colleagues are now coming out with allegations of criminal or professional wrongdoing, that's a new issue to address. At the time of recording, it appears that news had not broke.
    2
  735.  @painunending4610  It's a genuine interpretation. Whereas your interpretation seems to be driven by a personal bitterness. Nor did I state there was a problem with asserting yourself or impressing others, as such. The issue is in the "acting out". As in, to act out of character. This means an otherwise pleasant person coming across like a bully and a braggart, because they think it'll make people think higher of them.

  736.  @painunending4610  At this point, you sound like you're doing a parody.

  740. "Invaders"? Do grow up. Try and find a sense of empathy while you're at it, what would you do in their position?
    2
  741.  @kanedNunable  I think having some Conservative representation is also important. The idea isn't to have my personal, ideal combination but to have a government that understands the value of cooperative progress. Ideally, I'd do away with parties entirely so that MPs can focus on serving their community, not on party values.

  771. Key government figures frequently disparage environmental issues and the government as a whole has made little to no effort in meeting targets before giving up. The biggest Tory talking points right now are anti-immigration and anti-trans issues. The Tory ranks are more diverse but still easily a majority white British.

  794.  @CriticalCommentatorDrama  All you did was repeat your original statement with slightly different wording. Nothing in your explanation or his does anything to change the fact he was relying on cheap shock to get views. And saying "I'm just joking" does nothing to add nuance, nor dismiss reactions.
    1
  795.  @CriticalCommentatorDrama  No, I disagree with police intervention. Which is neither here nor there, since it isn't the argument I'm making. All sorts of things can cause shock. And juxtaposing two things doesn't inherently create value or nuance. It doesn't change the fact that his joke was significantly LESS funny than seeing someone get kicked in the groin. Which is hardly near the pinnacle of comedy. The point is, playing it off as a joke doesn't make it less gross. Did you find it funny?

  798.  @clairee4939  It's not clear at all. You and I can both be "concerned about the laws and institutions" of this country whilst also being on opposing sides of the issue. That makes it a very broad definition and means OP's assertion that Tice would get support from "true UK people" objectively wrong. The latter half of your definition is a comparison against a strawman, simple as. You've just created a hypothetical "other" and made the claim that anyone fitting that bill (who decides?) isn't a "true" Brit. Out of curiosity, do you know who else has used that line of reasoning in the last 100 years? And no, I won't seek to define what I think a "true UK person" is because I think it's a nebulous term.

It subconsciously reinforces the value of an individual within a culture and discourages critical examination of said individual. Barely anyone knew who Colston was till his statue came down. And you don't see any statues of Hitler but you still know who he is. This is the strangest pro-statue argument I've seen.

  908. Israel have NOT said yes to "each and every" proposal. Efforts in that regard have been stymied by both sides at different points for various reasons. Nowhere do you explain WHY a ceasefire would not solve anything. For a start, it'd give a chance for aid workers to get in, for people to leave and it's much easier opening dialogue when people aren't fighting and dying. But for some reason, you think the only solution is to put pressure on Palestinian civilians, the people with the least power in this whole conflict, so they agree to "any" solution. I have to question your motives.

This is stuff that is plainly evident, and I'm not here writing some kind of essay. I'm simply pointing out that you're wrong. Which you can't handle, and can't actually argue against, so you just ramble about civil discussion, being more than vague in your assertions or returning to your sole (insufficient) example without expanding upon it in any meaningful way.

  945.  @middleman9183  Yeah, none of these things are exclusive to British Christians. Not even a little. Ancient Greeks were growing the concept of democracy, Hammurabi is famous for his "code" of laws and he predates Christ nearly two millenia. The notion of individual liberty is another one of those universal concepts and is hampered by religion, not championed by it, such as is the case with homosexual people. Same with mutual respect and tolerance, any religious institution falls pretty far short on that one. You're not doing very well here.

  956. ​ @keithcommins  Okay, let's start with having you name the public figures, from the 50s and 60s, who told us the world would end in "X" years. If what you're saying is true, you'll have no trouble giving the names of those people whose comments have clearly resonated so deeply within you.
    1
  957.  @keithcommins  I didn't make any claim. I asked you to provide clarity for your own claim. Can you name any public figures from the 50s or 60s that made such a statement?
    1
  958. ​ @keithcommins You made a very specific claim, that we have been told since the 50s/60s that the world would end in "X" years. Of course public figures are relevant at that point, because WHO is telling you? But all you can do is point to Charles Keeling. You should have his Wikipedia article more closely before citing him. It's true that his work is foundational in modern understandings but it wasn't till the mid 60s that his work started being viewed as any kind of warning and he certainly never made any kind of claim that the world would end in "X" years. So basically you started your whole rant with a lie, and have now had to backpedal to try and justify. More than that, when I asked you to back up that particular claim, you leapt straight to putting words in my mouth, accusing me of making an absurd claim not remotely close to anything I said. Chap, do you know what "disingenuous" means?
    1
  959.  @keithcommins  It has been around for decades. But your claim, that you opened your little speech with, was a lie. If it wasn't, prove me wrong and name the people who were telling us, in the 50s and 60s, that the world would end in X years. Because the one person you have named definitely didn't say that. This is what you're backpedalling on. It's not complicated. You're just a disingenuous person. You proved that when you leapt at the chance to put words in my mouth and redirect the discussion based on a strawman. So no, I haven't yet gotten to addressing your other ridiculous claims because we're still dealing with your initial lie.

    1
  977.  @chobblesomealexa  Yes but you're choosing to say that rather than saying "we should be consistent". And maybe not arm anyone. You're also saying it's okay for Israel to defend themselves... by attacking others. And when those others defend themselves in the same way, the response is... that Israel has the right to defend itself. Its circular and illogical, only making sense if the goal is to justify intended actions no matter what.

  1035.  @Drenwickification  Oh look, deflection.
    1
  1036.  @simonzonenblick395  Yes, I would. That wouldn't change whether I agree with the cause, their righteousness isn't what's being debated. The fact is, their protest is blocking the road. What the police are trying to do is neuter their protest by moving them somewhere that their protest loses all effect. Obviously the protestors refuse that and continue their protest. They are then arrested for protesting. If you've ever lived or worked in London, you know those roads are consistently blocked every day anyway. So if the crime is blocking the road then the police are failing in their diligence on a daily basis. Or is it that they've actually got a different reason?
    1
  1037.  @Drenwickification  That they were being arrested for protesting? Yes. Just because I don't agree with them doesn't mean I can't recognise the reality of what is happening. But thanks for letting me know your partisan attitude determines your views on people's freedoms.

  1038.  @Drenwickification  Ah, that classic fallback. "I can't address your points therefore you're lying". Nice cynical attempt to make this a class issue, too. How many people have been held up on their way to hospital appointments?

  1039. @LL-LLLL9 Because its just the same question I've already answered, reframed in an attempt to create a "gotcha". Yes, they can do that and call it protest. Like I said, I'm not debating whether their cause is righteous. I'm debating what they were arrested for.

  1068.  @Robert_DeVille  Given how many Tory policies Starmer has said he'll maintain, I don't see the point in voting Labour. Because if they win then they'll come in, change little of substance, nothing will improve in any significant manner, Labour will get dragged through the mud and short memories will likely see Tories returning soon after. As long as Starmer is spending his time trying to win over Tory voters by catering to them, the Labour Party are in name only.

  1070.  @theojenner1902  And with that comment you demonstrate exactly why it's been allowed to become a two party state. Which highlights the reason why Starmer isn't acceptable for so many. If Labour and Tory politicians view it as a two party state then all they need to do is try and appeal to the other side's voting base. Hence an increasingly Tory-looking Labour Party. You think you're being tactical. All you're doing is dancing to their tune.

    1
  1191.  @kdog3908  You wanna be spoon-fed information without having to apply any critical thought, right. I can't help you with your inability to parse the term "fringe" but as far as footage goes, have you ever heard of something called copyright? If they can't get the rights to the footage they can't use it.
    1
  1192.  @kdog3908  Since you're the one asking for it, I'm still going with you. The issue of copyright is a common one when it comes to use of footage for news programs, hence why I suggested it. Even if it's from a phone, it still belongs to the person who recorded it. To use it, they'd need to contact that person and arrange permission for the footage to be used. It's actually harder to do that for amateur phone footage, due to the difficulty of tracking down the owner. Your concept of balance, as you laid out in your previous comment, was very vague and nebulous. It sounds more like you want "both sides" presented equally, is that fair to say?

    1
  1195.  @ENGLISHMURPHY  I don't see Reform representing us. I've looked at their "manifesto", for a start it's incredibly vague in how it's actually going to deliver on it's pledges. What they do outline is very worrying. If they deliver, we'll see a massive reduction in public coffers, which affects public services. They also want to deregulate businesses. This combination means working class people losing public services we rely on and being forced to turn to a private business who, being deregulated, can fleece you over a barrel. Meanwhile, they want to increase the burden on public services such as prisons by being "tougher on sentencing", particularly for minor drug related offences. You only have to look at the US to see how badly that goes, and how much it disproportionately impacts on working class communities. You said you want socialist policies but they're offering the opposite.

Some of these are from people who worked with him, including the guy who basically got him his job. I think they would know better than me OR you. But I appreciate you've tied your flag to Peterson's mast and, as such, are just too scared to risk actually learning about the person he is, as opposed to the person he presents.

If you're concerning yourself with the health of everyone, where do you stop? Ultimately you might as well enjoy your one life, you can't take anything with you so there's no point keeping it in mint and the only thing you'll ever truly own and control is your own body.

I've never seen anyone saying it's "our" fault but yes, a tax charge discourages people while still allowing them options. Is it ideal? Of course not, we have a corrupt and inept government, but can you imagine the outcry if certain vehicles were outright banned? But you want to turn all this into "persecution" and get offended that these people are being treated as "uneducated". Which is only a rational response to hearing them speak.

    1
  1249.  @Jomchen  You could just as well say that "£10m" is subjective because you don't know how another person is gonna feel about the use of that term. Just like you don't know how someone is gonna feel about the use of "mega". Because, and I want to be very clear here, you are talking rubbish. Its not complicated. You're just not very intelligent.

They're anti-killing-civilian marches, where Hamas' actions are condemned and British Jews march alongside British Palestinians, along with Brits of all shapes and sizes. Secondly, that's not moaning. That's what standing up looks like, putting skin in the game and opposing our government's financial and material aid to Israel. What are this lot protesting? What are they standing up to? Nothing of substance. They're just tilting at windmills.

    1
  1378.  @blablablabla1111111  Which is an odd analogy, because they don't have to share a flat with anyone. They can afford multiple homes with many oversized rooms beyond their needs. We're talking about people who can pay a higher rate and STILL have considerably more left over than everyone else had to start with. And there's a couple other factors. Money is a "finite" resource, so we're told. Can't just print more of it, that causes more problems. So there's got to be a limited amount in circulation so that it retains its value. So the people hoarding more of it are basically preventing others from having a share of it. This keeps people poor, right? So if your financial proclivities are ensuring the majority of people remain poor, why should you not be picking up more of the taxation burden?
    1
  1379.  @blablablabla1111111  Just to be clear, are you trying to argue that people on 60k don't qualify as rich?
    1
  1380.  @blablablabla1111111  So how can we possibly have this discussion if you an entirely subjective, selfish and endless malleable notion of what it is to be rich? If you're in the top 10% that means that you're richer than 90% of the population. More resources, more access, more options... but apparently that doesn't mean anything because, to you, some people can be rich on a small amount...
    1
  1381.  @blablablabla1111111  I don't know how much simpler I can spell this out. They pay the bulk of income tax... because they have the bulk of the money.
    1
  1382.  @blablablabla1111111  What about this are you not getting? You're in the richest 10%. That means you have a good deal more than the other 90%. But sure, tell me more about how you're moving the goalposts. Just... don't expect me to pay you any mind past this point. You're a joke.

To reshape it at any time so that "They" is whoever the enemy needs to be. The traits you feebly try and ascribe to me are much more appropriate for describing yourself. There's no intellectualism in your position, hence your complete inability to articulate it. Because you've let yourself become a follower.

Better than looking at a dark, cloudy sky and insisting that it's a beautiful day, which is what you do when you try and make out like PolJoe is deliberately misrepresenting people by plainly portraying their actions and words. Douglas Murray is just the kind of grifter who exploits the people you see in this video.

  1455.  @martinvalentine9228  Try opening them. Comment sections of videos about this matter are full of people defending him and several public figures have spoken out in defense of him too. Tucker Carlson, Louis CK, Andrew Tate... y'know, real upstanding individuals.
    1
  1456.  @martinvalentine9228  Well, Brand hasn't been convicted. You don't need to view the content of those individuals to know they've spoken out in support of them. And whether people view the same content as me doesn't change whether people have spoken in his defense either. In short, your ignorance is not other people's problem.

    1
  1471. @dondoodat So regardless of the fact that child benefit has and still helps many families make ends meet, you think there's no point to it because... what, our society has changed from when it was first introduced? It was introduced in '77, not during the Victorian era. You're not making much sense, nor does your comment really have any connection to your previous statement or my response.
    1
  1472. @dondoodat Yeah, back when we still used shillings. Funnily enough, it got replaced. And you're still trying to move further away from the initial point I challenged. I'm learning a lot about you today.
    1
  1473. @dondoodat My point is that your whole assertion that people shouldn't have kids they can't afford... is a stupid assertion, as people's circumstances change due to factors outside of their control. Something you've declined to address at all, instead blatantly changing the subject.
    1
  1474. @dondoodat "If you can't afford to feed two kids why would you want more kids?" Your words. You wanna try and put some spin on them or can we call it a day? Because it's really clear now that you are not a serious person.

But the idea that Brand is some profound exposer of truth is nonsense. He says nothing that hasn't been said before by others who aren't being "silenced". Frankly, he seems like a dim person's idea of what an intellectual is.

Probably because they are, but mostly because they're trying to talk authoritatively about something they don't actually know anything about. If I tried to talk about music theory, I'd sound like a right idiot. If I'm talking about one of my interests, topics I've taken some time to learn a bit about, I sound relatively informed. So I don't understand what you mean by "sound working class".

  1494. I respect Lynch. We don't see eye-to-eye on all issues but he seems uninterested in convincing others of his own personal convictions, his only interest (publicly) is to represent his union in a fair and honest way.

  1540. Two reasons. One is that more people in the UK have seen nationalism for the poison it is.

And Fox explicitly said she was "unshaggable", suggesting she should be dismissed purely on that basis. Because Fox is a lightweight with even less of substance on this issue than Ava did in the discussion with Norcott.

  1593. Part of me worries that actually getting involved in politics could break someone like Dempsey and force them to compromise on their values, I desperately want honest, straight-forward people that I can vote for and get behind. Not to create some idyllic superpower like the Tories and current Labour promise us. Instead to create a stable, fair country that might not be flashy and swish but that treats all its people well. It's so hard to achieve this because the political system is so enmeshed with corporations and institutions with agendas based around greed and control. So I don't think it's enough to say Dempsey for PM. We need to change our whole political system. We need to break the hold of "the market" on our lives.

  1639.  @knowlex3787  I don't think that's interesting or even well thought-out. Using the qualifier "neccessarily" is very broad and seems designed to provide an "escape hatch" of sorts whenever examples that disprove the point get brought up. Not a great start. The big flaw is in the example you use to support your assertion. You're saying that maybe people don't care about equality, that people are self-interested and seeking only to climb the social ladder. Your example is that during a period of heightened racial tension and increased attacks on a specific community, the BBC did a documentary series on racism targeted against a different racial group. Aside from the fact you haven't really made a point that links your example to your assertion, my dude... do you know how long it takes to make an hour-long documentary?

  1640.  @doghouseriley4732  Erm, no. I didn't say that. Use your looking eyes to read what I actually said.

  1646. I think you're being hyperbolic, Kevin. The NatC conference is an important political event, regardless of how you feel about those in attendance. Obviously it behoves a political channel such as this to provide coverage. They sent a couple of people down to conduct some simple interviews which they've edited into a small collection of short videos. Were there other simultaneous political events that PoliticsJoe should have been attending? Has it prevented them from providing coverage on other developments, such as the protest in Leicester yesterday? The NatC organisation represents an ideology that is trying to gain unfettered influence over UK politics, as they are in the US. They're fanning the flames of identity politics and culture wars which are being used to dominate political discussion and crowd out the other issues. So we can't ignore them. We have to deal with them and that starts with knowing who they are and where they find their support.
    1
  1647.  @kevinu.k.7042  Three vlogs is not flogging a dead horse. They've explained already that they'd not been permitted entry to cover the event. Asking you for your opinion on who they should be talking to is in no way mendacious, you sure you used the right word there? Hyperbole only means exaggeration. Maybe avoid long words if they're gonna trip you up. It IS an important political event, one of the speakers is our current home secretary, not to mention other government officials who were on the bill. In short, shut up Kevin.
    1
  1648.  @kevinu.k.7042  Okay... so? Go and watch other journalist's coverage then, this lot weren't allowed in. I'm assuming due to their political alignment relative to the NatCs. You didn't correct me on the meaning of hyperbole. You asked if I meant exaggeration. I told you that's all it could mean. And you used "mendacious" wrong. Nor is disagreeing with someone, or taking issue with aspects of what they've said, qualify as trolling. If I was trying to bait and goad you into apoplexy, sure. But all I'm saying is, telling them they're flogging a dead horse for doing their jobs is hyperbole. So please don't try and psychoanalyse me either. In this context, it reflects more on yourself anyway.

  1665. Very disingenuous of you to make this about class. I'm working class, nearly everyone I know is working class, and I don't know anyone who isn't embarrassed by this shower of morons. And I'll include you in that, since your argument for why St George is a fitting "patron saint" for England is that he was Christian and England used to be Christian. Couldn't get more simple if you tried. And no, this ain't a Christian country anymore. The church has lost its hold, we're secular again and better off for it.

  1675.  @Greg-q2r  I understand what the words mean. But you've assembled them in such a way that the STATEMENT makes no sense. It's simple, if you acknowledge that climate change "happens anyway" then why are you calling it a misnomer?
    1
  1676.  @Greg-q2r  The full term is "global warming caused by climate change". There's no agenda, you're just uninformed and gullible. And I really don't think you know what a misnomer is, since you acknowledge that the climate does indeed change.

  1688. I know next to nothing about how ebay works, but would a simple solution not be to have the transaction take place on ebay's side? They increase their take of a sale by the amount required to cover the tax and pass it on to HMRC. The individual is still the one who's paid the tax, but ebay deals with the admin side of it.

  1724.  @eleSDSU  No, it's not. You've fallen into a pattern of behaviour and convinced yourself it's inevitable. FPtP is a crap system and far from representative. But the only reason its a two-party state and not open to other parties gaining significant influence is because the vast majority of people only ever vote for one of two parties... while telling themselves it's their only choice. You calling me ignorant means nothing when you clearly can't see further than the end of your own nose.

  1728.  @montecrucis7247  Of course, you're right. Religion as an ideology has NEVER been used to compel people's behaviour, speech or identity. The trans ideology, by comparison, is just pure tyranny. Good grief, you're thick...

  1729.  @montecrucis7247  What do you think that proves?
    1
  1730.  @montecrucis7247  Really? Point to the buzzword I've used in this comment thread. You actually highlighted a part of the interview that supports my point, as he discusses preaching his religion. Which could be taken as indoctrination. So you're saying "this guy is so right, talking about indoctrination" while I'm pointing out that its a blind, hypocritical point since he himself is in favour of an ideology that has spread itself through indoctrination and enforced itself through oppression. But hey, why don't you have another go?

  1747.  @CB-dl1vg  You sound very confident in being so wrong about what constitutes left-wing ideology. Being okay with high levels of immigration isn't a left-wing position, certainly not a radical one. A radical leftist would be more concerned about WHY so many people are migrating out of their homes, identifying the cause and fixing it so that people aren't having to live their lives at the destructive whim of late-stage capitalism. You might need to accept that your entire understanding of "lefties" is based on lies...

  1760.  @gothicpagan.666  Yeah? So where do we all get 10k from then? Plus the money for a camper van. Plus the money for all the trips back and forth across the channel. Assuming I even believe you, its still a highly unrealistic notion.

  1769.  @alex29443  Nah, it's more than that. You started by saying you think "healthy, normal people" should be having children. Your assertion being was that if a woman doesn't want children, she is in some way unhealthy and abnormal. Just because you're saying you aren't gonna try and force anyone, doesn't mean it's not a gross statement to make.

I think that this specific discussion IS reflecting on how these attitudes affect women; on the one hand there's Peterson, advocating traditional gender roles and regarding women as a "chaotic" element that needs a man's control, and on the other hand you have Tate's attitudes of abusive objectivism. I think the next step would be bringing some men on board to talk about the things that make men vulnerable and how these grifters take advantage of them. And then to move that discussion towards what men can be doing within themselves, their social groups and their community to ensure they're not vulnerable.

Show me something that indicates she represents more than a few elderly talking heads regurgitating Daily Mail headlines or a small fringe of drunken thugs trying to find a salve for their own impotence.

  1825. Not sure you're qualified to speak on logic...
    1
  1826.  @rupertbollywood1190  You might as well say I could use maths to address your point. That would be unhelpful, because you didn't present a mathematical problem. In the same sense, there's no value in addressing your point with logic as your "point" is devoid of any. You just sound angry, bitter and confused.
    1
  1827.  @rupertbollywood1190  That's not correct. Logic derives from the Greek and means "reason" but can also mean "discourse" or "language". Mathematical logic is it's own distinct field. You insist that happiness has no objective meaning... but that's not exactly true either. While any given individual's standard of happiness can vary, there's some pretty clear baselines; a home, clothing, a full belly. It's hard to be happy without any of those things. So there is an objective standard for happiness. Now, logically, when you keep polling your population on their own happiness with a significant portion saying that they are decidedly NOT happy then you look at their criteria for being unhappy. When there's a clear consistent link between the vast majority of the causes, that should really be telling you something about the state of your country. Because levels of happiness also have objective effects on how your population behaves and performs. And even for a selfish and thoughtless individual, like yourself, it benefits you to have a happy population. If your workers are happy, they'll work better. If they're working better, they're being more productive, generating more value. Maybe spend less time trying to find angles to personally attack people and spend more time actually thinking your statements through.
    1
  1828.  @rupertbollywood1190  You might wanna go check up on the origins of "logic". I'll wait, I've got time, since you didn't actually address any of my points. But I'm the one tilting at straw men and making ad hominem attacks, am I? You're really telling on yourself.
    1
  1829.  @rupertbollywood1190  You're still trying to move the discussion away from the topic with more ad hominem attacks. Why is that?
    1
  1830.  @rupertbollywood1190  "Primary school". In the UK, we call it primary school. We don't say "potty", either. Happiness is an emotion that covers a range of states, including contentment. That's what I highlighted as the objective baseline. But, see, you've then followed up with an illogical demand. Which is why I pointed out that you should look at people's criteria for unhappiness. Because that's the logical way of discerning whether people are on the same page. I can't show everyone questioned had the same definition, just like you can't show they didn't. You have to look at their answers. There's been a lot of studies on this over the last few years and the trends all point towards; perceived poverty, lack of purpose and loneliness.

I don't believe it is and I believe only a minority actually support the fundamental ideology that Reform are built on; nationalist supremacy. The majority of people are disenfranchised. Starmer isn't reaching enough people with his weak decisions and status quo stance, but the answer is motivating people to be politically involved.

  1844.  @ethmac1  Actually, my first comment was wholly a rebuttal to the only thing of any substance that you said. Which you brushed off. And I'll admit, I've not watched much of Tate's own output. I've watched a lot that breaks down and analyses his comments and behaviour, as well as read many articles that go over the facts of what he's done. And I maintain that's more reliable than watching his own content, that he has curated. I don't want his opinion of himself, I'm interested in the outcome of his actions. Do you disagree? Or do you think his subjective presentation of himself is more honest?

They didn't care. Concentration camps were not a new concept, it wasn't an optimistic plan gone wrong. It was a means of efficiently and brutally suppressing a population.

  1945. ​ @chester6343  So what do you base your scepticism on, given the lack of any evidence?
    1
  1946.  @chester6343  Why?
    1
  1947. Because the general British public, by definition, weren't there.

  1948. @YoutubeAwards0fficial  Do you have evidence? Because there's clear evidence of Tate admitting to r*pe.

  1949. What does "integration" mean to you, though? It's quite a subjective term, in this context.

  1950. ​ @SISU889  Like the other chap said, your whole shtick is really obviously just trying to distract people from talking about a current issue. Happens every time, people argue that because we didn't fix something in the past when we should have, we shouldn't fix something right now. Absolutely pointless and serves no purpose. EVERY time that MPs have tried to pilch public coffers for their own ends should be held up and investigated with serious consequences. We've dropped the ball on this so many times in the past and they've gotten increasingly brazen about it. So we have GOT to nip it in the bud.

  1951.  @SigmundAnschutz-wi2fj  He didn't shift the argument, he just brought in a comparison to show why your comment about professionals was nonsense. You keep claiming, without evidence, that your opinions represent "universal" feelings on behalf of the general public. Got anything to back that up?
    1
  1952.  @SigmundAnschutz-wi2fj  Who lost their jobs because of train strikes?
    1
  1953.  @SigmundAnschutz-wi2fj  So your daughter and others couldn't get in to work, but your allegation was that people lost their jobs because of it. Did anyone get dismissed because of it? Just as a heads-up, I'm not taking your question seriously because its based on a strawman and, well, it's not a serious question. If you accept anecdotal evidence, then it's pointless engaging with it at all, as I could baselessly claim that every person I interact with supports train drivers and you couldn't say a thing about it. I'm more interested in your claims about the effects that the strikes had on people.
    1
  1954.  @SigmundAnschutz-wi2fj  They get dismissed for not showing up to work with no good reason. If, however, you called in to work and said "I can't get to work today because I rely on the trains and they're striking", if you were then dismissed over it you'd have a case for unlawful dismissal. More than that, all the strikes were planned in advance with warnings given. Giving workers who typically use the train time to make other arrangements with their employer, whether that's another means of getting to work or remote working where applicable. Now, I've asked a few times about who has actually been fired due to missing work because of train strikes and you've not actually been able to say who. You keep insisting that its obvious but... can't actually give evidence of it happening. It kinda sounds like you're just making stuff up to try and support your argument.
    1
  1955.  @SigmundAnschutz-wi2fj  Okay, so who did this happen to?
    1
  1956.  @SigmundAnschutz-wi2fj  Questions I already answered. You still haven't said who lost their job over this. Time to stop taking you seriously now.

  1960.  @Nick-kb6jd  I'm inclined to agree. Thatcher had her values... which were pretty abhorrent and hateful, she wasn't a good person, but she did believe in a certain ideology. This lot don't believe in anything but personal gain. So when I see people complaining that the Tories aren't Conservative anymore... well, I don't think they're wrong. Until they start calling our current government left-wing, then they're painfully wrong. But I don't think these Tories stand for anything except daylight robbery.

  1961. Stupid claim.

  1962.  @VPhantom-rf3qo  Earlier, you said you were 21. So you think your politics would have been considered socially liberal 20 years ago, when you were a one year old infant?

  1965.  @VPhantom-rf3qo  What were you saying before about having no substance? It's like you're reading off a sheet of lame comebacks. I think it's curious, looking at your comments in light of your little slip-up. Makes stuff like your comment about the prevelance of pro-LGBT attitudes come across as disinformation, rather than just a narrow perspective.
    1
  1966.  @VPhantom-rf3qo  I think calling you out as a liar spreading disinformation is fairly substantial. Unsurprisingly, you react EXACTLY the same as others I see spreading disinformation that aids the far-right. Even using some of the same phrases, word for word. I see you.

    1
  1980.  @SONofTHC  So if workers aren't striking for something, it's of no concern to them? That's the reasoning you're applying and it's nonsense. But it doesn't sound like you're here to make sense.

  1983. Yeah, but you think Jordan Peterson is wise. Probably a bit much, expecting you to understand how it was Tory policy that reduced policing, cut social services and lowered the budget Khan has available, whilst also pushing him to expand the ULEZ.
    1
  1984. Nah, there's evidence showing that children do better when they have two PARENTS, doesn't matter whether it's specifically one mother and one father. Children also do well when raised communally, so a couple of parents AND a grandparent AND an aunt/uncle/extended family etc... Children struggle with a single parent usually because of financial problems that the parent faces and because of the increased stress said parent is under. Basically, if a child is loved, supported and has good social connections then they will thrive. What you've done here is take a lot of soft Tory talking points and tie it explicitly to a heterosexual pairing, while stating that "the left" want people to be weak. This is some rubbish propaganda.
    1
  1985. I've looked at the nonsense you subscribe to. Not sure you're exactly "hinged". Worrying number of video titles with the words "schoolgirl" and "lingerie" in. Something to be concerned about?

  1986. It IS being publicised. What do you think a media outlet reporting on it is?
    1
  1987.  @username.not.known2473  Okay. So the existence of a different category of crime negates the existence of another, is that it?
    1
  1988.  @username.not.known2473  You should know as well as I that a fair degree of confidentiality in reporting as well as lack of specificity presented by the statistics makes it impossible to speak to. What I find interesting is that you're trying to apply qualifiers to being the victim of a crime, at any level. Why are you trying to argue that crimes about trans people don't matter?
    1
  1989.  @username.not.known2473  That's exactly what you're saying. You've set the standard of "hatecrime" as being a violent attack and discounting anything short of that. You're also either a terrible researcher or a liar. A teenage trans lass was stabbed 14 times in London just a week ago. Throws all your other claims into serious doubts.
    1
  1990.  @username.not.known2473  Have you looked up the story in detail? No, of course you haven't. But you're back to that thing where, apropos of nothing, you immediately doubt the reality and then attach qualifiers to victimhood. Bit sick, really.
    1
  1991.  @username.not.known2473  But only because you don't want to believe it. The claim is that the 186% increase is over a five year period. This claim is based on data released by the ONS and Home Office. But apparently you know better and it only counts if you say so...
    1
  1992.  @username.not.known2473  Which is obviously impossible. Which rather suggests that what's actually happening is that you're being intentionally obtuse and dishonest in regards to this.

  1993.  @nojabhere  Check out the accredited biologist over here, bragging about their primary school level education on the topic...

  1994.  @username.not.known2473  Because you say so. Sure. You're welcome to look at the ONS data yourself, or you could keep on with your victimhood Olympics.
    1
  1995.  @username.not.known2473  Is that what I'm doing? Can you point to where I've said that? You can't. You've simply assumed that to be the case and are waving away concerns based upon that assumption.

  1997.  @username.not.known2473  Nah, I can't access confidential police records and give you specific details of reports which is essentially what you're demanding as evidence. Where's your own argument? It's been nothing but dismissing official statistics from the home office and playing down crimes against trans people because of crimes against women, which is just pretty sick of you really.

    1
  2000.  @rocketscience4516  That's... you didn't understand what I said, did you? What I mean is, your comments suggest that you think PMQs is about pulling in viewers, thus justifying the horrendous behaviour on show. Seems more likely that politicians don't want anyone watching PMQs, since they don't like being held to account.
    1
  2001.  @rocketscience4516  Possible, since what you said just didn't make much sense. But given that you're making no effort to explain yourself further, you give me the impression you don't have anything valuable to add and you're just here to be a wind-up.

  2007. Exercise is good, for mind and body. But yeah, whether that's a workout at the gym, a boxing club or simply going for a walk, it's whatever works for the individual. Me, I also enjoy a good walk/bike ride out of town and I also do a short workout when I get off shift. For socialising, I get a lot out of D&D. It's a great framework for me and my mates to catch up regularly, have a laugh and support each other through all sorts.

    1
  2024. @left_blank Evidence to the contrary. And I don't think you've really given this proper consideration. If we don't support these children, their education and social outlook are dismal. This makes it more likely that they continue to be, as I'm sure you'd see it, a "burden" to our society. And their children are likely to be numerous and follow in their footsteps. But if we support the child's growth, ensuring they are healthy in body and mind as well as being educated, encouraged etc... they grow up into driven, productive and responsible members of society, who contribute positively and end the cycle of burden. Even if you're only interested in looking at it from a cold, selfish perspective then it's still in your interest to help people.

  2031.  @georgekassapis9511  Then why did you say "clarify" instead of "correct"? It doesn't add up and makes it seem like you're trying to mislead people. To your actual question, I don't see how having the Whitehouse pick and choose who it answers to as being any kind of improvement over potential "gatekeeping". And while the potential IS there, I can't see any actual evidence of said gatekeeping taking place. Whereas now we're seeing Trump's administration decide who gets to have a voice.

    1
  2053.  @danielclemence3689  Well, because calling someone "illiterate" when they're plainly not and the context is wrong means that... you don't know what "illiterate" actually means. Which is ironic. Because that's what irony means. And "PoliticsJOE" isn't this one guy, it's not a "he".

  2065.  @chrisjennings6539  The second half of your comment suggests you've already made your mind up and aren't going to agree. But simply put, a social construct is something that exists because we agree it exists. Just like money only has value if all parties involved agree that it does, the roles and expectations assigned to gender only apply because a society at large agrees they do. This is why you can find notably different attitudes regarding gender in different societies.

  2095. This has never been a one-sided conflict. Hamas and the IDF both perpetuate it with their actions. A key difference in regards to the response from many in this country is that our government aren't funding and supplying Hamas, or justifying the atrocities they commit which rank alongside that which Hamas commit. If the goal is to defeat Hamas, you've got to deal with their whole reason for existing. That means ending the conflict.

The rest is just fear mongering based on irrational concerns. You could make the same claims about basically anyone you don't know. The reality is that the vast, VAST majority of people migrating here keep their heads down and get on. This is another global trend. As for Islamic extremism, as far as within this country, its been losing teeth at a rapid rate. Its a decreasing threat, not an increasing one. Because people like freedom. You can dress it up however you like, but when you're blaming problems on an "outsider" simply because they're different and alien, you're being racist.

  2175. ​ @clairee4939 It's actually quite funny because you've just drawn a lot of parallels between Christian and Muslim extremists. And its interesting that you say that US pro-life interests haven't killed anyone in the UK. That's true, to the extent of my knowledge. This US religious obsession is a relatively new import to our shores. But in the US? Anti-abortion extremists are literally considered a domestic terrorist threat because of the people harmed or killed by them. Now with Christians coming over from parts of Africa, there's a really strong anti-gay attitude embedded in the faith. That's not tolerant, is it? As you yourself point out, the vast majority of Muslims that have migrated here have not tried to replace any Western ideologies, nor have they harmed anyone. Your complaint is with the relatively few extremists. But now we're seeing extremists of other stripes turn up and you don't seem bothered by that. Speaks to your personal bias. Suggests that your concern isn't actually with peace or stability in general, but just YOUR peace and stability.

  2203. I did a brief stint in a Waitrose warehouse about ten years ago and they also timed toilet breaks. Their entire focus was on productivity and we were encouraged to cut corners and work in dangerous manners to meet targets. We were all driving around on the motorised pallet trucks, injuries were very common and the injured worker would be immediately dismissed and replaced the next night. We were all agency and I was the only English native on the team; I strongly believe that Waitrose and the agency were abusing the lack of awareness that migrant workers had about their worker's rights. I've since spoken to colleagues who used to work at Sainsburys and they describe a very similar situation. I've no doubt this is standard practice for the larger corps.

But that's not the purpose of a second chamber. It's checks and balances. The idea of a second chamber is that (in theory) it prevents an unbalanced first chamber from passing laws and bills without oversight. The second chamber has the power of veto, so it keeps the first chamber in check. It's not a perfect system, especially because members of the second chamber are unelected and seem to be picked based on cronyism. Are you starting to understand what this is all about now?

And yes, aspects of the lockdown were heavy handed and applied as a blanket rule. Because our government suck. As someone already pointed out to you, if we'd taken action earlier it could have had a far greater mitigating impact but Johnson wanted to keep everything open for the sake of making money.

Lib Dems as opposition. You might say "Labour this, Labour that" and you might even have a point. But fact is we don't have good alternatives. Greens might as well be a one-policy party. It's an important policy but not enough on it's own. Ukip or Reform or the BUF or whatever they're calling themselves now are just living in the past.

    1
  2334.  @firestarter1888  That's not what a democracy means. It means you have representation in governance, that's all. By your logic, should we not make sure that child molesters are represented? No, because those voices only want to cause harm. As do supremacists. The idea of countering them with logic and fact, are you referring to debates? That doesn't work. What does work is ignoring them and not giving them air. If you think this individual has some valid points for this topic, then make those points. If they're valid and supported by evidence, they'll stand on their own.
    1
  2335.  @firestarter1888  That's an absolute mess of words with no point behind it. You've given no reason why there's value in platforming the voices and views of supremacists or child molesters. I have to question why you're more concerned with such people being allowed to have their views broadcast than with trans people simply existing. Why is that?

I think you're right about the people in this video and I think that they're not people who should be seen as any kind of enemy by people supporting peace. Quite the opposite, these people clearly have the humanity that's so lacking in their (and our) so-called leadership. We need to be engaging each other openly so that common ground can be found and a peaceful way forward established. Though I do make an exception when I hear people spouting the kind of bigotry that Adelle is, those people need to shape up or get in the sea as far as I'm concerned.

See, the government puts taxes on stuff it wants to discourage like tobacco, alcohol and unhealthy foods. It already does this, are you down your local complaining about state control there? An easy solution in this case is not to drive a high polluting vehicle. Then you're not paying a tax on it. Crying about "state control" just makes you seem sheltered and even a bit deluded.

  2434. Protest is meant to cause disruption. The issue here is disinformation being used to stir up racism and violence. The far left don't do that. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to point to any far left action in the UK. At most, you've got centre left liberals sat in roads blocking traffic. No-one is buying the "infiltrating agitators" nonsense.

  2437.  @clairee4939  You're in no position to talk of being "fair and balanced". Firstly, the fact that other governments have used force to impose themselves is no justification at all. Do you think any society is free from crime? Does that mean crime should be tolerated and given a pass? No, of course not. Its ridiculous to suggest such a thing. Your claim that "indians invited the EIC to run them" is not something I've come across in any of my studies of the EIC or the British Empire so I'm gonna need to ask for a citation there. What is your source for that claim? The EIC were invited to trade by the ruler of the Mughal empire at the time, not to take over and run the place. Britain only became a major power in the region after the EIC conquered Bengal decades later. Sure doesn't sound like the people of India inviting them. So, again, you need to provide a source for that claim. The British Empire was so large because of military power, helped by the fact that the EIC monopolised saltpetre in India. The colonised peoples didn't opt to join the Empire because of shared values, they didn't have a choice. Your suggestion is frankly gross, given what we know of how the Empire was governed via force. Not only are you clearly overlooking the "nasty bits", you're outright creating a fictional narrative to whitewash the atrocities of the empire. So your claim of having a balanced understanding of our past is nonsense. You have a propagandised, romanticised fantasy reworking of our past. And then you finish on a strawman, by claiming that I'm "praising the Golden Age of Islam", a stance that I have at no point taken. You seem like a throughly ignorant and disingenuous individual, spreading lies and propaganda.

  2468.  @gothicwestern  Except you've turned this round in your head. Mhari's specifically talking about closeted trans kids speaking to a teacher, a trusted individual, because they don't feel safe talking to their parents.

    1
  2496.  @jim-es8qk  That you seem unable to answer. It's because you're a liar. You've never read the book and you're making it up as you go. Prove me wrong. I know you can't.
    1
  2497.  @jim-es8qk  Now you're backpedalling. I already said it was a cautionary tale based on authoritarian governments of the 20th century. But you were alleging that 1984 isn't fictional. You're confused between science fiction and historical documents.
    1
  2498.  @jim-es8qk  Nah, you're backpedalling to change what you said, you've even tried to subtly edit your comments. Which doesn't really work because YouTube then flags the comment as edited. You haven't read it. You don't have a clue what you're talking about. Go read a book.
    1
  2499.  @jim-es8qk  You stand by a technicality but haven't demonstrated any knowledge of the book or of European history beyond knowing the names of two authoritarians. And thinking that 1984 was documenting their regimes.

  2501.  @clairee4939  I like how you always have to invent a little anecdotal lie to punch up your comment, especially since your point would have the same value without it. You've picked three very poor choices as examples, as these are all long-standing terms that, despite your claim, are well understood. Whereas "woke" has been appropriated from AAVE and applied as a broad description of anything the user isn't keen on. People can and do misuse terms like fascist, I mostly blame Rip Mayall for that, but the fact remains that it is a defined term. "Woke" is used as a subjective catch-all that's constantly being redefined.

  2505.  @robjmck  Ah ah, you're moving the goalposts. Your initial statement was about societies, not the concept of a country. If we're asking actual societies mobilising behind the ideal of citizenship based upon a national and racial identity... well, there were a few in Europe during the 30s and 40s... can't remember what ever became of them.

  2509.  @robjmck  I'm responding to your assertion. If you don't get my response, you don't understand what you were asserting. So you just fall back on moronic labels like "woke globalisation".
    1
  2510.  @robjmck  Don't lie, you've not studied anything relevant to this topic. If you had, you'd be making clear and reasoned arguments. Instead, you make fumbled assertions that you can't evidence and, when someone actually responds and challenges your view, you deflect and resort to messy word salads. Or, like you are now, you essentially commit ad hominem fallacies by trying to guess some trait of my identity and use that to distract from your weak argument. Hate to break it to you but I'm a 35yo white man who failed most of his GCSEs, never got a qualification beyond that and has worked most his adult life as a warehouse operative. Despite that, it's still not hard for me to see the blatant lie in your claim that there's nothing right wing about people who are in favour of a national identity based on racial traits.

  2555. And I think that, while there will always be exceptions, most people would rather stay closer to home. I don't think that's a radical observation. Many Brits do and it's not inherently tied to any kind of nationalism. So I wish the "Little Englanders" would consider this, factor it in when judging anyone coming here and have some empathy. How would they feel if circumstances far outside their power to control left them with no choice but to leave the land of their birth? I'd be devastated. But you do what you must to get by. I'd like to see a more humane process for bringing migrants into our society that doesn't create a terrible social divide or result in wasted resources. That's what the Tories have done. In an ideal world, I'd like to see nations helping each other and building each other up. And then maybe this wouldn't be such a matter of course.

  2603. ​ @clairee4939 That's funny because the biggest criticism of Biggar's book is how unbalanced it is in spinning a romanticised fiction of the reality of the empire. You've read propaganda and you think you're studied in history.

  2604.  @clairee4939  Respected by who? Columnists in the Telegraph? I actually studied up on this guy after you cited him as your sole source for your wild claims. Meant to return to that comment but it's been lost in the dailies so this will suffice instead. Biggar has made empire-romanticism the primary focus of his academic career and has been widely criticised by historians for not submitting his work to peer scrutiny. In particular, his book has been criticised for misrepresenting the sources used. Do bear in mind that this is the same man, a purported Christian, who wrote a book on human rights which came to the conclusion that the importance placed on human rights, amongst other things, "corrodes military effectiveness" and "proliferated publicly onerous thoughts". Nigel Biggar is the man who claimed the second Boer War had nothing to do with gold or diamonds, his source for this? Statements from colonial officers. According to him, the occupation of Iraq post-WW1 had nothing to do with oil. Hells, Biggar starts with the assertion that empires are part of the natural order. But you want to tell me its not propaganda? You'll have to try a lot harder.

    1
  2686.  @clairee4939  If you're trying not not be predictable, don't use ChatGPT to write your arguments. All it does is mash pieces of other people's arguments together, it's like making your case using newspaper clippings. And it doesn't do it very well so your comment is a vague and rambling imitation, regurgitating the same claptrap that conservative fearmongers have been spewing for decades. It also explains the marked difference in style and tone between your shorter and longer comments. Not the first time you've gotten the computer to do your work for you... To start with, it's not entirely clear that you have a solid grasp on what CRT is. Yes, it focuses exclusively on systemic racism founded upon historical injustices. Much in the same way that maths focuses on numbers. If it overlooks other, positive aspects of Western history or culture, it's because those aspects are irrelevant to CRT. But its interesting that you cite civil rights progress; without the willingness to exercise introspection and examine the injustices in our past, how can we make progress on civil rights? To say that CRT overlooks that is ignorant, CRT is an integral part of that. You express concern with "group identity" and feel we should all be treated as individuals. On a personal level, yes, we should all treat each other as individuals. But when looking at something like systemic racism from an academic perspective like CRT does, you have to consider racial groups. Racism was wielded against particular racial groups, ergo academic study looking to combat racism must recognise those racial groups. Again, that's like complaining that maths is far too concerned with numbers. As to your point conflating the group identity problem with Islamism, that's incredibly vague and the same could be said of any religion. There are large Christian sects who define their identity by religious affiliation more than any other trait and Judaism has group identity hardwired into it. Why are you concerned with one and not the others? That then leads to a glaring contradiction in your argument; your promotion of a national group identity. There's not a lot to say about this other than that it's highly hypocritical. You can't start by saying that CRT and Islam are bad because they foster group identity, then finish by saying that they're bad because they inhibit national identity. That's just disingenuous. What this reveals is that your issue isn't with group identity as such, but rather one of "others" and "teams". Its fine so long as its your group and your identity but you don't want the other team having theirs, because you believe there is strength in that identity. Because you believe that your group identity is weakened by the presence of others. That's a very, very big red flag... The biggest, most glaring issue is that you believe and perpetuate a lie. A fictional narrative that romanticises history and paints colonialism as a noble undertaking with minor regrettable mishaps, rather than the deliberate system of exploitation that it was. The reality is that Western nations became so strong and prosperous through the same means as any conquering empire in history; theft and slavery. Which is hardly "fair", by any stretch of the term. Its just considerably easier to amass great wealth when you don't have to actually pay for anything. And the consequences of said exploitation continue to echo down to today. I first became aware of CRT in regards to the GI bill and the gross injustices done to black vetetans. But that harm didn't just end with them; when something affects hundreds of thousands of people within a society, it profoundly affects that society. Examining these effects is important to combating continuing discrimination and fixing our societies. Yes, it requires criticism and acknowledging uncomfortable truths about our nation's history. The particular bit of romanticism that you're indulging in is the idea that Britain, via the empire, created and/or spread various virtues throughout the world. That Britain gets a pass for a few bad things because of all the good it did. This is simply not true. Rule of law and freedom of speech being protected, these are ancient concepts that have been propagated and developed by too many societies to list in an already far-too-long comment. But start with Mesopotamia. Secularism? Britain now is a secular country but during the empire it was not. The spread of the empire was accompanied by the spread of Christianity. So not a virtue it can claim to be responsible for. Civil rights? Another more recent development and, again, certainly not a virtue promoted by the empire in any way. When it finally ended its part in slavery, it actually paid off the wealthy slave-owning families. The empire always put profits well, well before any notion of civil rights. It's a weird anachronistic mish-mash where the empire is simultaneously responsible for the creation of concepts that predate it by millenia AND of modern concepts that only developed in its dying days. But the idea that Britain spread democracy and human rights around the world, by subjugating people and forcing them to labour, is absolutely ridiculous. The freedom and rights we have TODAY, we have in spite of our imperialist past. Not because of it. Because people stood up to discrimination against ethnicity, gender, class and more. We have these things because people were willing to put aside fragile ego, to look at the state of affairs and decide it wasn't good enough. So yeah, to summarise... you don't seem to know what CRT actually is, your focus on Islam seems largely based upon personal bias, your arguments against group identity are entirely defeated by your promotion of national identity and your understanding of Britain is ahistorical. Now do me a favour and don't bother me with your AI generated rubbish.

  2687.  @clairee4939  All you've got is strawmen and vagueries. You use so many words to say nothing. You can't actually address the criticisms I made of your previous argument, so instead you try to redirect and focus on what you presume me to think. And you had the gall to preemptively complain about being misinterpreted. If you can't address my points, don't waste my time. And don't lie. You're really bad at it.

  2688.  @clairee4939  You didn't address anything. You just repeated your same, confused misunderstanding of what CRT is. Continuing to make daft comments like "CRT focuses exclusively on race". If only there was some clue in the name... You didn't address your hypocrisy regarding group identity in the slightest. You simply reaffirmed "my side good, other side bad". And you're just repeating the same vague claims about the positives that you think shouldn't be overlooked while excusing the bad. And now you're doing the same thing you complained that the left does. Which is unsurprising, as you've admitted to being little more than a contrarian chat-bot. Maybe that's why you can't actually defend your argument; you didn't write it. You just got ChatGPT to pad out your opinions.
    1
  2689.  @clairee4939  Yes, "of course" the clue is in the name. Well done for finally figuring that out. Took you long enough. No, you didn't really give examples. You just stated it and vaguely referred to "rule of law", "freedom of speech"... which are rubbish points for the reasons I explained. Funny that you try and attach a point about white lads being the most disadvantaged, because that's counter to your arguments about focusing on racial identity. Just reinforces that you see this as a "teams" issue, and you only care about things that benefit your "team". The very fact you can't understand a very simple analogy and genuinely seem to think I'm comparing the fields of maths and CRT rather than the focus is... well, it says a lot. You literally said that group identity was bad before saying it'd be great if everyone had a shared national group identity. Basically, you want everyone to think of Britain like you do. It's utterly hypocritical and arrogant to boot. And my apologies. You didn't say to excuse the bad parts of our history. You've just repeatedly advocated for not looking closely at them, focusing on the good bits, leaving it in the past and not worrying about what damage its caused. That's definitely not excusing, is it? Nah... Finally, do you know what a non-sequitur is? Could you give an example? No, of course you couldn't. You're a really bad liar.

  2780.  @beganitdidnt6535  Loads of people are autistic and don't go on killing sprees, it's a condition and not an ideological cause. Content from figures like Tate and Peterson, however, frequently comes up as a core component of radicalising young men into an incel community that encourages and goads him into acts of violence. This is a heavily documented issue and you don't have to take my word for it. Robert Evans is one of the leading experts on radicalisation, he's talked about this at length.
    1
  2781.  @beganitdidnt6535  People like Tate and Peterson target incels because they're an easy market. Gullible and desperate individuals with simplistic, easily satisfied notions of self-improvement. And you believe in genetic determinism because it absolves you of any responsibility.
    1
  2782.  @blackvoid5560   No, you're missing the point. Peterson and Tate profit off of incels. That's why they're the tip of the iceberg. I'm not arguing that they actively create the incels. I feel like people don't understand what that saying means anymore. Nearly all of an iceberg is underwater. The bit you see is just the tip. The saying means "there's more to this than you can see, this is just a small part". We see Peterson and Tate profiting off these incels. They're happy to cultivate environments of lazy misogyny which appeals to a lot of incels. But they are just the tip, the bulk is under the water, where people aren't seeing it.

  2783. You don't understand the concept of free speech. If Fox is free to say what he wants about someone, then anyone is free to say what they want about Fox's comment. That includes his employer being free to say "I don't want you here anymore". But no, you go ahead and cry about how everyone is picking on poor old Fox.

    1
  2798. The way I see it, there's different stages of life and someone over the age of 25, they should be mature enough and able to recognise the power imbalance they create by dating someone between the ages of 16-25. I'm sure there are exceptions of healthy relationships with that kind of age gap but I've never seen one.

  2807. So what's actually going on, by your judgement?
    1
  2808. Two things. Religion is a big red flag to a lot of people, especially women since religions are generally structured to control them. You sound like this is your main focus. I've met several men who tell a similar story to yours and they all resonate with this aura of desperation. It comes across in their stance, in their tone, their expression and mostly in the things they say. It's deeply unnerving. So let go, find peace in other areas of life. When you aren't trying so hard, you might chill out and come across much healthier.
    1
  2809. You're not real.

  2811.  @benitolazio8193  Guess again, petal.
    1
  2812.  @Dan_and_Co  So your two objections center around "who decided the far-right is bad?", followed by "it'll be hypocritical to stop far-right people when they do the same thing". Is that correct?
    1
  2813.  @biancaenera2500  You misunderstand. It's not a question of "why" people do or don't commit crimes, that's irrelevant. The point is he is NOT allowed to do that, as you asserted. If what you said was true, then liberals would be removing laws to make acts like this legal and that hasn't happened.

  2820. While I disagree with several comments Ava has made on this topic, I think you're doing some severe fact distorting of your own to reach the conclusion that she hates men and doesn't care about male suicide. Throws the rest of your comment into question, since you're either stupid or dishonest. Maybe both.

  2822.  @OmarTheGiant  "Gaytheism"? What does that mean?
    1
  2823.  @OmarTheGiant  If he exists and chooses not to help, that should tell you he ain't worth respecting. If you see a child playing by a river, they fall in, the current is pulling them away... do you not act? When grieving parents ask you why you did not help, do you tell them their child had free will? Pretty sure Jesus didn't preach "look out for thyself and thyself alone; people have free will so leave them to it"...
    1
  2824.  @OmarTheGiant  Okay, look after each other and be righteous. Good rules for life. So what can we make of it when a supposed god can't be held to the same standard? Not just the Catholic idea of god but any notion of a major deity. Why should we accept that excuse for their inaction, their lack of love or righteousness? Either they are cruel and undeserving of us or they simply never existed at all.

    1
  2828. @drsnooker1776 So you ain't Catholic and you ain't British, either. But you've decided you're some kind of authority on Irish history? Then you need to educate yourself on Catholicism's long history of molesting young boys and its management of the Magdalene asylums.

  2846.  @maxmaritime1206  The main culprits in our "cultural destruction" is us. We sold our culture down the river to Amazon, Starbucks, Apple and the like. A homogenised culture all buying the same things, watching the same programs and listening to the same music. Immigrant communities just provide a stark contrast of how much we've lost. As for suggesting that our government aren't hostile to immigrants, that's just a stupid thing to say.

    1
  2853.  @PostingCringeOnMain  No, there's not a problem with my logic. You just don't know how to make a reasonable comparison. A better comparison would be like worrying solely about a specific brand or model of knife becoming very popular and focusing solely on trying to get those knives off the streets, while failing to realise that lads have just been going and getting kitchen knives all along.

    1
  2857.  @clairee4939  Your own narrative, as I already said. You have to lie and put words in people's mouths to try and make your argument, just like you're doing now by trying to tell me what I think and say. It's thoroughly dishonest.
    1
  2858. @clairee4939  No, you don't. Because you don't listen to what people say, you just lie about it. Over and over, you just try and tell people what they say, what they think or what they feel. You're simply a liar.
    1
  2859. @clairee4939  What's the point in trying to debate you when all you do is lie and misrepresent what people say or think? It's cute that you've learned the word "debate" but it means nothing coming from you.

  2860. I dunno about relationship education, there's a lot of subjectivity in there but maybe there's some broad strokes that everyone finds useful. Definitely something to think about.

  2907.  @Pollandland  Consider this, though. Let's say someone quits smoking, sometime in their 40s, and goes on to live another 30 or so years. Would all the medical costs they'd incur as the years go on be more or less than the cost they'd incur if they'd carried on smoking and died at a younger age? I appreciate that's very hard to quantify but it does bear thinking about, if you're gonna use the cost saving argument.

  2915. "As a man there are no accidental families" Really interesting line there, encouraging the idea that a man can be irresponsible but has the option of bailing and leaving someone to be a single mum. That's very telling.
    1
  2916.  @ohyouloveit8599  Have you ever heard of "contraceptives"? Going back to your original comment, it's rather missing the point. You claim that having a family is no excuse, as you should only have families you can afford. Okay then... what does "an increase in cost of living" mean to you?
    1
  2917.  @ohyouloveit8599  But even at 98% effective, that completely blows a hole in your claim that "pretty much 100% of the time men have consciously signed up to [...] potentially creating a baby". Kinda sounds like you're arguing that you should only have sex for the purpose of procreation... And the point should be clear. You can budget for something and find it affordable. Then, a year or few later, the costs increase. But your wage hasn't, so you can't alter your budget. Raising a child may have been perfectly affordable when their baby was born a few years ago, but now factors well outside their control have changed that.

  2920. You've misunderstood. There was a handful of people (and by handful, I saw one for myself and seen photos of two others) who had placards that conflated Judaism and Nazis as being one of the same. It's a clearly inappropriate comparison, it's also just not accurate at all. These weren't pro-Nazi signs, they were anti-Jewish. The people holding them were trying to imply that Jews are secret Nazis and that makes them bad. As I said, the whole thing is deeply inappropriate and inaccurate.

  2921.  @ambientjohnny  You keep veering between isolating sex and gender, then conflating them, then back and forth, back and forth. This suggests you have simply copied other people's word-for-word arguments without properly understanding them.

  2922.  @ambientjohnny  Yeah, you do. Can I put quote marks around your entire rant? Because the whole thing is just a mess. Second paragraph in particular, really highlights your confusion around the distinction between sex and gender.

  3073.  @-knob-  Better is subjective. If I'd be unhappy living the life they have, then my life is "better" than theirs. Now, to your claim. What kind of achievements are you talking about, specifically. Because there's a lot of human achievement, particularly in the area of scientific and technological advancement (the stuff that actually matters) where breakthroughs and developments have been achieved by people you've never heard of because they didn't do it for the limelight.

He's been pushing the whole false narrative conflating LGBT people with child abusers for a long time, while never presenting any evidence that supports his claims. Quite the contrary, we know that children are at far greater risk from religious figures. He's just using identity politics. No, I don't follow any BBC rhetoric. Russia has proven itself through its own actions. And "my type"? You assume a lot but clearly don't know anything.

  3086.  @jonathandnicholson  Because he was a "strong-man" ultra-nationalist and classist who held other ethnic groups as being lesser beings and enacted violence against them. Why no Hitler statues? It's not because he lost, the Confederacy lost and had dozens of statues through southern US states. There's no Hitler statues because he had millions and millions of people murdered in death camps. How can you sit there and challenge my understanding of what a fascist monster is? When you're coming out with such critical takes as "Hitler's only bad 'cos he lost".

As for comments of immigration and political competence, it'd help if this lot had any idea what they were talking about. Your comment on sacrifices by ancestors only holds if you think they'd actually have sided with the people they died fighting. And if that's what you believe, I take serious offence to that.

  3099.  @stevejones9607  Really? So when they buy something, do you think they support a shop owned and run by people in their community or do they go on Amazon and get it delivered cheap to their door, next day? If they're hungry, do they go to the cafe or just pop into Maccy D's? I don't know the answers but I can make an informed guess, based on how massively successful and dominant those companies have become in our country. Its not political decisions I'm talking about but consumer decisions. And these are the questions we should be asking ourselves. How much pub culture has been weakened and damaged by cheap pints at Wetherspoons?

    1
  3103. @Ambander1 Erm, no. She was of Macedonian ancestry. The Ptolemy family had been in Egypt somewhere near to 300 years by the time of Cleopatra. If you look at modern Greeks, it's not as clear cut as black and white. It's a real transitional point between Europe and the Middle East. There are many, many, many Greek people who would certainly not be considered "white". That's always going to have been the case. And that's today. You're telling me that Egyptian-born Macedonians from over 2,000 years ago were white? Okay then...

  3104. @Ambander1 Was gonna ask for the source behind your claim till that little bit you ended on. Gonna stop taking you seriously now.

  3105. @Ambander1 And there it is. You're just a little neo-Naz who's taken with the long debunked "Aryan origin" myth. And no, archaeologists did not find that Tut had been a Germanic man. What they found is that many Europeans had a common ancestor with Tut. Just like we do with Charlemagne or Ghenghis Khan. A little bit of knowledge, a little less fantasy, and your poorly constructed worldview is shown to be a hollow edifice.

  3125. Anyone claiming to be a victim should be treated as a victim unless and until there is evidence showing otherwise. If someone has been falsely AND maliciously accused, they should be treated as a victim upon the point that such falsehood and malice is proven. Happy?
    1
  3126.  @flabbybum9562  So if you accused me of something, and I countered by saying it was a false allegation, what happens then? It's not a double standard at all, it's simply being reasonable. I can prove it, give us a hypothetical scenario and let's resolve it.
    1
  3127.  @flabbybum9562  So your issue is in treating a victim like a victim?
    1
  3128.  @flabbybum9562  But they aren't. They're treated as the accused. They're only treated as guilty after due process.
    1
  3129.  @flabbybum9562  But they are not treated as guilty until due process is carried out. They're not denied anything. Whereas it's been shown many, many, MANY times that not taking rape claims seriously results in less people coming forward with their claims. One is your perception, the other is objectively bad for society.

  3130.  @flabbybum9562  I'm not seeing your distinction.
    1
  3131.  @flabbybum9562  So you think it better to treat all people with cynicism and doubt until proven otherwise? And to be clear, there's no issue with the legal process, you just don't like someone being called a victim unless you can be immediately assured that they actually are?
    1
  3132.  @flabbybum9562  Ironically, what you're arguing for goes directly against the principle behind "innocent until proven guilty" since you're saying that a person claiming to be a victim must be treated as a potential liar until its "obvious" that they aren't. Given the complexities of the legal system, that's basically until a verdict has been reached in a criminal system and, even then, its not 100% from a purely objective, fact based approach. Whereas the accused must be treated as innocent until its obvious they aren't. Does this make sense to you? Does that seem fair? And I'd love to know what basic rights and protections people won 800 years ago...
