  1. Whenever I hear someone moaning "you can't say anything anymore"... I always ask them "what is it that you'd like to say, that you feel you're not allowed to?" and I've never gotten an answer.

  2. I'll fight to defend my home. Not for a flag, not for a so-called monarch and certainly not for what those in parliament will claim are "British values". I'll stand in defence of my home because, well, it's my home, I love it and nearly all the people I love call it home too. What I absolutely WILL NOT do is let someone ship me halfway around the world to fight for their own political games.

  3. 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.

  4. She comes across like someone recalling a learned story from memory, rather than from experience.

  5. 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.

  6. ​ @BaalsMistress  None of that changes the fact of Nick's statement.

  7. If these allegations are true, the US and UK are in no position to make moral judgements.
    87
  8. I honestly believe that the vast majority of Israeli and Palestinian citizens want nothing but an end to the control and the violence. I think they could work together, it's those in charge who need to go.

  9. 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.
    72
  10. ​ @Tekracing Maybe in those cases it's just ignorance.
    71
  11. I always enjoy watching these and it's really interesting getting that expert insight into the authenticity, practicality and realism. That said, I really love how nearly all the experts touch on and Rawlings explicitly states that realism is not the be-all in film, especially fantasy and such, and that EXPRESSION is often more important. Sure, the fight scene might raise eyebrows in HEMA circles but it helps tell the story and that's more important. I'd love to see a few of the fight choreographers get involved and breakdown what the fight scene is communicating, how effective it is at it and coming at it from that angle.

  21. Sadly, the fact Bruno was in that position and it took a small "viral" fundraiser to turn his life around shows that France, like much of the western world, is still lacking when it comes to really addressing the myriad problems around homelessness. The great thing shown here is how actually it's relatively easy to help people in Bruno's situation. A shame that our leadership can't manage what ordinary citizens can with just a bit of internet savvy.

  22. @Jaded-K Apologies if I've misunderstood what you're saying, but being ignorant of something doesn't mean you're ignoring it, it means you're unaware and uninformed about it.

  24. ​ @therichieboy They stay. And work with Palestinians for peace. Coexistence.

  25.  @LianaStevenson  Their breed was used for killing, by humans. Lots of dog breeds were. Doesn't mean that's the only thing that the dog wants or knows to do.
    46
  26. ​ @Thundrr20 I think it's more likely that the soldiers assumed the hostages to be Palestinian civilians.
    45
  27. 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.
    45
  28. ​ @blickluke Maybe that's because 100% of Palestinians have spent decades being raided and bombed by Israel. If we were under frequent assault by a neighbouring territory, would we not also support the goals of the ONE group actually standing up for us?
    42
  29. ​ @lestrem11  I'd say they've accounted for Saville, what with him being so chummy with top Tories, Thatcher is particular.
    41
  30. ​ @שמעוןאייזנברג-צ3כ The thousands of dead kids didn't do anything. Can you square that with your conscience?
    39
  31. The amount of farcical, disastrous conflicts we've been involved in since 1945 doesn't help. Really undermines the noble cause narrative.
    39
  32. Those aren't really counters. For the first it seems like you're trying to create an equivalency that just doesn't wash. A pregnant woman being violently assaulted to the point of miscarriage versus a woman getting an abortion in a safe medical environment? If we're being honest those are two distinctly different situations and I think you're saying it's all murder because that's just what you feel. And this matter is not just about what individuals feel. For the second, you're making too many assumptions. There are so many possible scenarios under which someone might seek an abortion; almost as many as there are different individuals who find themselves in that situation. All you are doing is dreaming up the worst straw-woman you can think of and citing it as the only possible scenario. I think you would do well to re-consider your angles.
    38
  33. What a legend. So ready and determined to give this dog the patience and love necessary, largely because he just knows that no-one else will. That's a big heart you've got.
    38
  34. 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.
    36
  35. ​ @danw5760  Yep, for £500pcm in London you can rent a room in someone else's house! That's the sign of a strong society...

  37. Such a weird take... surely he should be making the argument that people who hit regular Joes with hammers should face stricter penalties and not be out on bail the next day? Yet he seems to be arguing it the other way.

  38.  @boywonder6659  You can evidently say it. Don't mistake people disagreeing and replying as such with being verbally muzzled.

  44. This is a man who grew up in a UK that still openly declared "no blacks, no dogs, no Irish". You'd think that would make him more aware of how xenophobia is wielded against people with the least power.

  46. ​ @tdg6372 Nope. Just ordered other men to their deaths. Then took the credit.
    32
  47. I think what you're all missing here is that it's a TV show and what many people "love" about characters like Tywin and Cersei stems from the enjoyment that they, as an audience, get from watching these characters. Everyone loves a good villain whilst a pure do-gooder is kinda boring and predictable. Look at Ramsey Bolton. No-one can argue that he isn't right up there as one of the out and out evilest characters in the show but I'm damned if I didn't love his scenes. And that's the other factor; the actor portraying the character has a lot to do with how much love that character gets from fans of the show. Lena Headey, Charles Dance and Iwan Rheon are great actors. Emilia Clarke is not. She doesn't have the charisma that the formers bring to their roles.
    31
  48. Good on ya! Shame outlets like the BBC choose to stay silent on stories like this.
    31
  49. Yeah, I found that second one particularly odd. Brexit is a shitshow from top to bottom, no-one knows where we're at with that anymore, but standing up to Putin? I missed the part where Johnson directly challenged Putin's actions. Zelensky had stood up to Putin. Johnson has just made a lot of waffle, done the bare minimum anyone in his position would do and the rest has been purely performative.

  55. ​ @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?

  56. ​ @cameronclarkhull  On £23k down in Hampshire. I've got a small flat that takes 75% of my wage, before council tax, bills, food etc. It's an existence, wouldn't really call it a living. Stay strong.

  64. 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.

  71. £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.

  72. "Once he found out that he was gonna get fed, he has someone who cares about him, then he opened up" I feel like this is true of all animals, including humans, who've been through the ringer. All we really need is food, a safe place to sleep and a few around us who care. Something worth remembering.

  78. ​ @clivet3252 No, it's cowardly. Ali came straight out with why he wouldn't fight. He faced up to it and owned it. Given the climate of the US at the time, that was incredibly brave. Trump didn't face up to anything. He tried to find a sneaky way to get out of it.

  81.  @airdriver  It's more than that. The first two films, similar to the first two Alien movies, create this amazing whole that is far beyond the sum of it's parts. T3 is... not bad. Not good. Just meh. Some nice ideas, executed without passion or care. Too many callbacks to the previous film. It was underwhelming. Which, compared to the first two films, is unacceptable. T1 is gripping and T2 is fuckin' HARROWING. T3 being underwhelming feels like a real slap in the face. Also, killing off Sarah Connor like that... what? Then Salvation was... a bold choice. But it had the same problem as T3, just without the nice ideas. Nice overall concept, moving to the future war. But no idea what to do within it. Barely remember that film... Least said about the next two the better. Genisys was so unnecessary and dumb. Dark Fate... while one could argue it was a better film than T3, Salvation or Genisys, the decision to kill off John right at the start basically negates EVERYTHING in the first two films. Everything you felt? Doesn't matter anymore. What a dumb decision that was.

  96. I love watching these excerpts from Rogan's podcast, I love getting all these different insights into social issues and often from differing perspectives. It's really interesting. What makes me so sad is I can watch a clip like this of Joe and Dan talking reasonably about an issue, then I scroll down and see the comments. I know, dumb move... But seriously, I feel like a lot of people are just not listening to what is being said. They're just coming in to share their angry opinion and they don't want to accept anything that doesn't support it. Which is ironic given that, in this case, the comments are from unreasonably angry people complaining about SJWs; guys, you're doing the exact same thing that you're criticising people for doing.

  99. ​ @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.

  109. ​ @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.

  122. I was also there and OP has the right of it. A peaceful march where various cultures and faiths were present in solidarity. The speakers at march's end consistently condemned Hamas and called for the release of hostages, in addition to an immediate stop to the bloodshed. Some speeches evoked similiarities with MLK's famous speech, in that they called for a future where Israeli and Palestinian children live side-by-side. Meanwhile, a bunch of "patriots" who don't even understand their own history or what armstice actually means turned up to pick a fight with police at the cenotaph for no reason other than their own sense of inferiority. Or maybe they just wanted a scrap. Either way, they're a joke. I've heard from a few sources that Yaxley-Lennon bailed pretty quick.

The mother has raised a wonderfully empathic child, who will be a loving companion to Scarlett and I feel sure that they'll grow up to continue rescuing animals in need of a loving home. Most importantly, innocent Scarlett found someone to give them the love and safe home that they needed.

  125. Let's be honest, Starmer was at least right when he said that all those Tory MPs who've resigned have no integrity. They stood by him through his handling of covid and are complicit in the crony contracts for PPE that never delivered. He's broken all kinds of rules with his approach to the Ireland/Brexit problem, including the deal he set up and they backed him on that. They're just doing it for their careers. Jonathon Pie has a very concise take on what it's all about.

  127.  @jillybean3688  Your stats don't seem reliable. You mention a pie-chart but this is a purely hypothetical chart that you've constructed. There's no pie-chart of dog bites where pitbulls comprise nearly three quarters of it. Citing PSI isn't relevant, it indicates how painful and forceful a bite will be but says nothing as to how aggressive the breed is. And yeah, the "locking jaw" thing is a myth. So just based on that, we have to question the veracity of your stats and where they came from. Do pitbulls hold the top spot for fatal attacks in the US? They do. They're also one of the most abused dog breeds in the WORLD. That gives a lot of context to attacks by pitbulls, a trend that continues with the other fore-runners such as rottweilers and German shephards. It also doesn't tell us anything about pitbull aggression in general. A chihuahua is far more likely to bite you, it just doesn't really do any damage. Dogs are, for the most part, products of their environment. If a dog is abused, tortured and forced to fight other dogs, it's gonna develop a mean streak. Any animal would, humans included. It's that simple. And don't call me a hypocrite for pointing out your own hypocrisy. That's effectively doubling down on it. You dismissed Erik's anecdotal evidence but have repeatedly cited your own as being sufficient. You can't have it both ways. Whereas I'm not giving any anecdotal evidence so where do you get off throwing out accusations of hypocrisy? You've already stated your refusal to listen or consider other opinions on this which suggests that you're just trying to stir the pot to get your 15 minutes of attention. Well, here you go.

You go on and on about the impotence of men who want to express themselves through violence but your main concern here is trying to prove your superiority to faceless strangers with the verbal (textual) equivalent. I was in a "Fight Club" as a teenager. Yes, it was puerile and pretty foolish but at the time it was something that connected with me far deeper than any of the seemingly meaningless shit that was getting thrown at me. When you've got so many people hassling you over your education choices, what job you're gonna do, the importance of toeing the line, the supposed responsibilities you need to be getting ready for which seemed (and some of it still does) like a load of horse-shit. I just wanted to feel alive. Vital. In the moment. In years since I've learned many better ways of achieving that feeling but there's a purity in violence, there's no denying that. Especially when there's no agenda behind it. You're not fighting for anything. Not even pride. You're just using every ounce of your fibre and honing your mind down to a focused point. I'd like you to explain more your criticisms that it's a story for people who've never had to face real hardship or work. Because with what you've given so far it seems like you just want to use that as a weak reason to denigrate people you don't approve of. You kinda sound like a Tory, mate...

  269. Confused Fox I think this says more about your own personal motivations and aspirations than anything. It would discourage you from progressing because you are incentivised by money and you view climbing on the social ladder as a priority in life. This social ladder is based upon the idea that having more than someone else makes you better, means you are a successful human. Maybe you don't think this but it really seems that way, based on your criticisms of the idea of UBI. The idea of which, by the way, is not to set everyone on the same level; though that could end up being a result depending on how it's implemented. It's to ensure that people can pay rent and buy food in a society where there simply are not enough jobs for the majority. Personally, I think you've been suckered in too much by the lures of capitalism and should re-assess the way you see and value human society.

There's so many poor that you only have to pick a little bit from each of them, and even though you might argue it's only a little bit from each person, in terms of proportion it's significant. So now consider all the ways in which capitalism allows those in positions of power to get poor people over a barrel. Private landlords, privatised utility companies, digitising of essential services (which is a double whammy as it involves automation, putting people out of work and increasing the number of poor).

When talking, for example, about the state of the economy and how that impacts working people then it's appropriate to look to "the rich", to corporate greed and mismanagement by the government. If we're talking about personal issues, personal problems and insecurities, while external factors are present, ultimately the individual must look inward and take responsibility for themselves.

  501. I don't love Starmer, I've been very unimpressed by some of his actions, or lack of, in regards to matters like the strike, backing proportional representation etc. He's too much of a centrist appeaser, in my own narrow view. But I don't hate him either. While I clearly don't agree with all his views, I don't see any evidence that he's fundamentally dishonest or out for himself which is something I can't say about the last 12 years of Tory leadership. So yeah, I'd vote for him. Mostly because I want the Tories out. I don't think he'd bring all the change we need but I think he'd be a start in the right direction. And I do recognise that many people in this country don't share my more socialist views so it's only fair that whoever "leads" us can mediate between and find a middle ground for everyone. To lead us all to find compromise. So that's a point in his favour. Not gonna stop me trying to argue the case for more socialist policies, of course... but it would definitely suit me to have a more sensible, more stable leader in place.

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.

You're being promised a simple solution for very complicated problems; reduce the amount of people and things will improve.

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 dug his grave myself, we held a funeral service... it was awful, as losing a loved one will always be. But I couldn't have asked for more. Not sure he could have, either.

If the policies proposed by both Tories and Labour are broadly and functionally the same; if you oppose the Tories but support Labour, then you only oppose an identity, a personality. You don't oppose the ideology, you support it. You tell me I'm voting Tory, by not voting Labour. But you're the one voting for more of the same.

We face several existential threats right now and, with all of them (yes, climate change deniers, all of them), we can see a clear cause and effect of how they could wipe us out. With this, all I'm hearing is incredibly vague speculation. What's the fear? A Skynet scenario? Okay, don't give an AI control over defence grids and an unhealthy dose of paranoia. At the moment, the nuclear arsenal is largely in the hands of men who are senile, insecure, narcisstic and generally unstable, so its not like we aren't already facing that threat.

The best bit was when he accused Poland of collaboration prior to WW2 because of a non-aggression treaty signed in 1934... totally ignoring the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact. But why don't you tell us what you learned from it, since you're so confident that it was a positive educational experience.

  1075.  @JesusChristsDick  Their point wasn't the distinction between a mental or neurological disorder. Their point was that something was once classed as a mental disorder but that changed as our understanding grew. You might need to re-read their comment as you seem to have missed that. If you're gonna make the argument that treatment access is not covered in all cases you should really cite some evidence beyond anecdotal. Simply saying "I know people" doesn't really cut it, not when you're also trying to slam other people for not having a rebuttal to your argument. Not sure I buy the second part of that either. It all depends on attitudes held towards trans people. If they're looked down on then maybe what you say is true. But in a society where they're treated fairly, why would you need to classify someone as having a disorder in order to make treatments available? Your last point, that's your weakest one. You say that "it is very likely that half or more of trans claims are FALSE". Where's your evidence for that claim? As it is, that claim can be wholly ignored as there's nothing supporting it.
    4
  1076.  @JesusChristsDick  Again, you missed the part of their comment which pointed out that homosexuality used to be considered a mental disorder. And you need to provide evidence, not just what you reckon.

  1100. You should know that John Christy works for both the George C. Marshall Institute and the Heartland Institute. The latter is particularly concerning, this was the libertarian "think-tank" engaged by tobacco industry lobbyists to produce "evidence" that smoking wasn't bad for your health. They've proven that they'll say anything to make some money and it looks like they're well in the pocket of fossil fuel companies.

  1113.  @stewie7338  For one thing, they aren't British. They came out of the age of enlightenment which took place all across Europe. Then there's the values themselves; liberty, progress, tolerance, fraternity, constitutional government and the separation of church and state. So when you've got conservative-minded people who want to see people as "other" and deny them liberty while advocating for a return to Christian values... Yeah, that's really not adding up.
    4
  1114.  @stewie7338  But they aren't "British" values, they're just values that humans aspire to. Hence why they're far from exclusive to Britain. As for the "what people", this is where I have to ask if you've actually watched the video.

They could have then given their views on his views on their views and on and on. What freedom of expression does is prevent the government from entering the conversation and trying to shut down one side by arresting those expressing a certain opinion. Do you get it now?

    4
  1126.  @VRTrucker  What do you think that story proves? YOU made a choice to turn other people's essential needs into a source of profit. You call yourself an accidental landlord which is a lie, as you earlier made clear that you "decided to rent it". And now you're complaining about increased costs when few are feeling that more keenly than renters who, unlike you, have NO fallback. Oh, and "overregulation", which speaks volumes about the attitude landlord's hold their tenants in. No, I have zero sympathy for your greed. Plus the idea you were renting a 3 bedroom house out for £500pcm, which makes me inclined to call your entire story a lie but whatever...

  1143.  @iainhamilton6773  So then what's stopping Putin doing it again the next year and claiming a couple more regions? And then again, and again...

  1155.  @IamDude2  It wasn't factual. It was supposition. The context was nothing more than pretentious assertion, so I guess you could argue it was relevant in that you were serving as a living example of an idiot who thinks they're being profound. As for random punctuation, you don't seem to know when to use a comma or to simply end and start a new sentence. So he's not exactly wrong there. Thanks for playing.

  1158. @dondoodat He outright stated it would be inappropriate for Labour MPs to stand with strikers because Labour might soon be in government and would need to sit in negotiations with the unions. He never explained WHY it'd be inappropriate, leaving people to wonder just why a PM hopeful thinks its inappropriate for a nation's government to be sympathetic towards strikers. It's only bad for PR if you're appealing to Tory voters. Which is all Starmer's Labour seem to be doing. You can say I'm flailing, I think you're just making excuses for the Labour party moving to the political right.

I know he moves in circles with lots of peeps like that, including Joe Rogan... oh Joe, why did you get so dumb... and I've often found myself at odds with Burr's views, despite enjoying his work. And it's not the first time I've heard him express these kinds of thoughts, though it is the first time I've heard him be so clear and explicit in the point he's making. Ultimately, I'm saying respect to Bill Burr. We need him because he DOES have the ear of a lot of right wing peeps, like it or not. People that might not listen to you or me, but they might listen to Burr.

Especially when the country in question is one that owes everything it is to the principle of immigration and even more so when the person saying it is the President of said country. And by doing this, Trump is using racist attitudes to appeal to racist voters. He's being racist.

  1206. Jan Cabudoy I don't think you understood the facts presented in this video. Not do anything? There won't be jobs to do. It's that simple. When that happens what then? No jobs means no wages. So people can't pay their rent or buy food. Quality of life plummets. At the same time people have no money to buy products so the companies using all this automation to create their products won't be able to sell them and they'll collapse. UBI is pretty much the only solution at present to avoiding this. Only problem is it really requires people to change their attitude regarding money. Won't be so hard for people already poor but for those who are currently among the truly wealthy... yeah, they're in for a shock...

  1219.  @sheilaowen5757  The guy getting kicked in didn't shoot anybody either, what's your point? Police need to be able to control themselves and their emotions, as they're often in high stress situations. If they can't, they're not fit for the job.

  1223.  @gazsm1  What I said was "they can make the choice" at 16, which is true. Did you know a trans person can't get any surgery done till they're 18? Another parallel. So why is it that we think a 16yo can make the choice of the army for themselves but isn't smart enough to know themselves?

  1251. I take issue with "everyone deserves to find connection and love in life". I reckon it wouldn't take long to draw up a pretty hefty list of known persons who we would widely agree don't deserve a damn thing. So I don't like that statement as an absolute, especially since it reinforces this idea that the attitude of an incel is the symptom, not the problem. And that's wrong, the attitude and ideology is entirely the problem. We shouldn't be playing down to it, while helping people is to be encouraged it ultimately lies with the incel individual to lift themselves up.

  1257.  @jimthompson9370  Just trying to understand the barmy notions behind your daft comments. The ECHR exists to protect citizens from being abused by their governments, amongst other things. It actually gives you more control over your own life, as opposed to all that control being ceded to the government. So no, leaving the ECHR wouldn't give us "our" self determination. It would centralise power of determination.
    3
  1258.  @jimthompson9370  All of them. By dint of being MEPs. Ask Farage, he was one. Except he barely ever turned up for work. So maybe he's not the best person to ask about the EU or the ECHR...
    3
  1259. You're half right. Young men should realise its disrespectful and a crime and should not do it. We don't need to ban cameras and women can wear what they want. It's the people doing the criminal stuff that need to stop.

  1272.  @Imperial-Socialist  You clearly stated Canada in your second comment on a fairly dense thread. Your first comment didn't state that at all, which is what people are replying to. And the whole "you can't read" angle just seems petulant. Just own the misunderstanding and move on.
    3
  1273.  @dresden5060  We say that in the UK? Where? I've never heard it said. Not sure what she's ever given to us, either. They're good at taking, those Windsors. Very bad at the whole giving back thing.

  1274.  @johnjames6620  Like?
    3
  1275.  @Dronestriketerrorists  No, you didn't. I can see your comment that I responded to right now and it doesn't mention Hamas once. Why are you lying? Even if you had, it wouldn't change the fact that you're choosing to laugh at actions that are killing a lot of infants and children.
    3
  1276.  @Dronestriketerrorists  Again, they weren't built by those I have sympathy for. The fact you keep ignoring this very simple point and trying to put your own spin on it is pretty sick.

  1283.  @mrdubplate9601  That's not really true at all, is it? Trans people exist around the world. Some cultures are much more accepting than we are, others are far far less. We're at a point where we can decide to be compassionate or cruel. You obviously prefer cruel, why?

  1285.  @NoLefTurnUnStoned.  Do you think the difference between man and woman is the same as the difference between cats and dogs?
    3
  1286.  @NoLefTurnUnStoned.  Bit of an odd comparison then, isn't it? Do dogs often present as canine but have feline genitalia? I'm curious why you think you understand biology better than a biologist. Do you have a doctorate in the subject or something?
    3
  1287.  @NoLefTurnUnStoned.  Is that what you think? Let's see... Trans Person: "Please respect my identity the same way I respect yours" Anti-Trans Person: "No, you must present the way I'm comfortable with." I'm not sure it's the trans person being the bigger narcissist in this one.

  1288. ​ @blueshirtman8875  Quoting his Wikipedia page doesn't make the point you think it does. It says nothing of intelligence but of achievement and success. Many of us are making the point that achievement and success are really determined by factors such as matter of birth, nepotism etc.

    3
  1292. ​ @ftumschk You're immediately conflating calling out lies with the presenter simply giving their opinion. That is not the point at all. It's about highlighting when false information is used to try and make a point. That's it. Because content like this IS how many people learn about what is happening. That's why news media exists. What you're arguing for is how we end up with the invasion of Iraq.
    3
  1293.  @Wack373  It's actually not how negotiations start. They begin with people who are actually willing to negotiate. Who's feeding you this rubbish?
    3
  1294.  @Wack373  Like the caption on a motivational poster, sounds lovely but totally empty. And then there's the bigger picture to consider. Putin's a gambler, all dictators are. He's a good gambler and letting him win Crimea was a massive failing. Now we're dealing with this as a consequence. Settling on terms that favour him means we're back here doing this again in less than a decade. But you just stick to glib one-liners, that's about the limit of your "wisdom".
    3
  1295.  @Wack373  The problems with our wealth distribution can be solved domestically and aren't inexorably tied to Russian dominance of energy markets. Russia is struggling to perpetuate the war as much as Ukraine is. Look how far and wide Putin has had to go begging. And the toll its taking on his position of power only grows as time passes. But go on, tell me what else it says on your sheet.

  1308.  @j377yb33n  Or it gives them an easy out where they can portray the victims as the offenders, turn that into the media story and lawsuit, then go back to business as usual.

That's what you sound like right now. I guess we'll have to wait and see...

The boy who forgets he's meant to pretend that he's a Brit and wouldn't say things like "50 cent". This, from the boy who thinks "nu-uh, women find men hot too" is a suitable counter for a well formed argument about attitudes of male entitlement towards women creating unhealthy social environments. Yeah, good one.

  1372. The Just Stop Oil lot seem pretty misguided with a lot of their actions though. Stopping traffic doesn't really get the right conversations happening, it just generates hatred, anger and ridicule towards the ideals they claim to be fighting for. Throwing soup over pieces of art does nothing but highlight the ignorance and childishness of some of their members. I did quite like them trying to get into Downing Street, that's more like it. Yes, they get more attention than the UN Sec General. No, it's not waking people up to the realities of our situation. It's not making compelling points that change minds. It just drives division, our government even fans those flames. I've heard it suggested that Just Stop Oil, at it's core, is controlled opposition. That's getting a bit tin-foil, it's true... but I can't fully dismiss the notion.

Can't imagine Jeremy and Piers get on particularly well, since Jeremy clearly doesn't agree with his brother's stance on issues like climate change or pandemic response. And Jeremy is more blunt and honest about the reality of our bleak situation than anyone in our government, so in what way is he living on "planet utopia"? It's very telling when his critics have to misrepresent or even outright lie about him in order to find an angle.

  1411.  @robertstrong6798  It's all self evident. Tourists don't ever meet with the royals, various European nations such as France offed their monarchs but have no problem attracting tourists to come visit historical buildings. They haven't helped us resolve any of our critical diplomatic situations, otherwise we wouldn't still be dealing with them. Their efforts to protect parks and buildings go as far as putting their stamp on the work of others. They aren't the people out there actually assessing and carrying out any required work. So have you got anything else?

    3
  1446.  @doghouseriley4732  There's certainly a debate to be had over whether he's actually misogynistic or just plain sexist, though it would quickly become a matter of semantics. 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.
    3
  1447. Exactly. If people primarily vote tactically, we'll get tactical politicians. People like Sunak or Starmer who don't believe in anything and will say or do whatever they think will get them the most payout. We need to vote honestly, based on our values and principles. My vote will be going Green, despite being in a relative Tory safe seat.

  1460. Let's assume that it is correct. What's the problem? We have various politicians and public figures who make a big deal out of "benefit scroungers" but the reality is that any such people who live that way is NOT a drain on our economy. Why not? Because they spend the money. They go out and buy whatever, booze and fags if you believe the stereotype. Well, then they're supporting their local economy and spending the money on highly taxable goods. What we really want to be concerned about is the money that gets squirreled away and hoarded, where it accumulates interest that affects inflation, where those who own it go to lengths to avoid ever having to pay tax on it.
    3
  1461.  @scoutman  No, because there's footage and audio of Trump himself doing so. Like I said. You need to pay more attention.
    3
  1462. Pretty much. These daft conspiracies that snare some people, they present "simple" scenarios with "easy" solutions. But the reality is actually a lot more complicated and the solutions are so snarled up and complex that they can drive you to despair. So I think people subconciously choose the lie because it's easier to deal with.

  1464. @Dontcare-oe9wx Can't help but notice you dodging the key, undeniable distinction I made. The millions that died during WWI were, overwhelmingly, young men who were lied to and manipulated. Or men who were given a choice between going to fight or facing a firing squad. There's nothing noble about WWI. Those men didn't die fighting for freedom. They died for a lie perpetrated by their leaders. They were sold down the river, the same way that Israeli and Palestinian innocents are being sold down the river by their leadership. Using this day, after the 2 minutes silence has taken place, to call for a ceasefire is amongst the most decent things a person could do.

  1497. Its an interesting choice of words. When referring to how observant someone is in the religion, we say "practicing". Saying "active" instead could be just a brain lapse which is fine, we all do it... But Farage does like to choose his words carefully. It's how he stays out of prison. And typically, when the news refers to someone as "active" it's for violent criminals. So interesting that he said "active" instead of "practicing". And more to the point, he's just amplifying a lie to incite disorder.

  1502. ​ @richardshortall5987 The fact you put all the credit for the modern world on the shoulders of men, collectively says a lot about your biases but also your shocking ignorance about history and all the different people who got us where we are.

    3
  1505. Exactly. I reckon that most people would rather stay in the land of their birth, where they have roots and a community. But some people don't have the luxury of that choice. Instead of wasting money on dog whistles and pantomime, we should be working with historically-shafted countries and helping everyone enjoy the same basic standard of life. But as the last couple of years have really shown, our government doesn't care about even maintaining that quality of life here.

  1514. 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.

  1538. @MagnerCarter  Really? Because I can see the comment you're claiming has been deleted. You don't need multiple accounts, you just need to understand how the comment filter works. So thanks for proving my point and, I guess, for letting us know you're a disingenuous operator who uses multiple accounts.

  1540. Let's be honest, Churchill wasn't a very broad-minded man who was open to new ideas. His small role in WW2 does a lot of heavy-lifting for his legacy which is otherwise... pretty fucking awful.

  1544.  @methylene5  Oh sure, I'll just take your clearly biased and racially motivated word for it. Its entirely to do with copycat crimes. It also helps avert violent "reprisals". Which, judging by the bile being spewed by people here, is warranted. Like I said, criminal psychologists laid this out years ago. They went to great effort to get news broadcasters to listen. That C4 have heeded such guidance where GB News have not is no big surprise.

  1545.  @richardguest4574  This individual's actions don't reflect on other individuals, even if you want to place them in a category together based on their ethnic background, social class or any other factor.

  1558. But Boris IS just a rich boy who doesn't understand (or care) about the every day struggles of working people. He wasn't a strong leader, he spent much of his time in office on holiday or rubbing elbows with his rich business pals. And anyone finding him charismatic, I have to question their judgement of character. The vast majority of people I know found him repellant.

  1581. 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.

  1582.  @alfamonk  While I respect the man, I think he's more suited for the role he's in. I wager he'd agree. But we need more honest folk worthy of respect in government, so that people like Lynch and Dempsey can negotiate deals in good faith.

  1583. We're not just talking about people with low confidence though. We're talking specifically about people who identify as incels and subscribe to an ideology that they are entitled to sex and hold deeply misogynistic views.

There's no deeper meaning here to understand, there's really nothing to sit and ponder. Just you throwing out the word "bigot" in a way that doesn't apply and proceeding to be foolish. So I don't know what you're going for here but it further adds to the sense that its actually yourself who's struggling to keep up. And that's tragic.

And I agree that we have a political and media environment that actively works to sideline and malign them. 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.

  1656. And your solution is?
    3
  1657.  @ADHDSUZUKI  That could easily become counterproductive, harsher sentences can actually result in escalating crimes. Take the following hypothetical, let's says theft is a 1 year sentence, assault is 10 years and murder is life. Murders are rare, assaults are thankfully uncommon but theft is still too high. So you raise the sentence for theft to 10 years, same as assault. Should stop the thefts, right? Except now, a lot of thieves reason that theft is easier if you rough up your victim first, and since the sentence is the same either way, they might as well. Right? So now you make assault a life sentence. That'll do it! Except no... now you've almost guaranteed that every assault ends in murder since its the same sentence, but one doesn't leave a witness...

  1675.  @jdshgaming3416  Capitalism doesn't even require money in principle? Okay... That's completely misunderstanding what capitalism is about. The point is in privately owned trade and industry run for profit. You also don't seem to really get the point of socialism, surprise surprise, where we could have the same production, the same industry, but state owned so profits either go to the workers who generated it or get reinvested. We don't need capitalism to have technology. That should be obvious.
    3
  1676.  @jdshgaming3416  No, I don't accept that. I will also repeat, you don't understand what capitalism is. Specifically, you're failing to grasp the very obvious difference between a simple bartering system, of "free exchange", and a capitalist system which is not about free exchange but rather about accumulation of profit, of capital. Bit rich of you to be saying I "haven't responded" to your point, given that you just keep trying to change the subject rather than address arguments against you.

  1698.  @awolf913  They're demonstrably not the same, just as you can do a study of gender roles across cultures and see there's no fixed position. As for biological sex being a spectrum, that's self evident. If maleness is determined by testosterone and different men have different testosterone levels, what else can that mean but that sex is a spectrum? You yourself have offered no substance in your denial. Despite what you say, you're the one arguing based upon your imaginary definitions.

They get unreasonable when you poke 'em. You're telling me I'm living in a fantasy world, where what I'm really doing is observing how often a war has concluded with a punitive treaty that punishes the losing side, resulting in circumstances that lead, in short order, to a resurgence of hostilities within a generation or two. Muppet.

  1795. It wasn't a baseless lie. The footage of that press conference is out there for everyone to see. The kindest interpretation of it is that he didn't understand the topic he was talking about and couldn't coherently form a sentence asking about it. And that's being very generous to Trump.

  1797. @Tom Yes, you keep copy+pasting the same simplistic "history" lesson. I worked in theatre for many years so I do know how it came about. Schools incorporate education around the arts, performing etc. Having a performer come in to read a story to kids fits that very well. I don't see how it could be confusing for children unless they've been ingrained with very strict views. It's not like they get totally spun out by the concept of religion or deities when the school nativity comes around. And yes, plenty of schools will have Halloween themed events. Your granddaughter would likely enjoy that a lot except, as you said elsewhere, she's 2yo and so not even in school.

  1814.  @PreservationEnthusiast  Yes, I know what a plot device IS. What I want you to elaborate on is the evidence you have for the claim that The Dodo fabricate circumstances for the sake of "plot". And saying "we just saw animals running around" is not evidence of anything other than your cynicism.
    3
  1815.  @PreservationEnthusiast  I don't believe that everything I see on YT is an absolute truth. But there's a big chasm between blind acceptance without exception and assuming that everything is faked or dramatised. You've got no evidence supporting your assertions. Not every video includes every gory moment of the animal's trials. Normally 'cos those are times when the foster is taking a much more proactive role than simply filming. However, a lot of the videos do in fact show many aspects of the conditions and the recovery. And most of the fosters and animals featured in these videos run their own social media accounts, such as on Instagram, where you get a lot more context than a 4 minute video allows.
    3
  1816.  @PreservationEnthusiast  So your evidence of manipulation is... video editing? You suggested dishonesty on the part of Dodo and fosterers by questioning the authenticity of some stories. I don't have to prove that there's no evidence of dishonesty. That's not how this works. You can't allege something without evidence, claiming only that it can't be disproved. That's a logical fallacy.

  1819.  @oatnoid  How do you figure that Obama is one of the two worst presidents ever? I'll grant you that he has rabid admirers who overrate him. But to say he's one of the worst suggests either an unreasonable bias or a great deal of historical ignorance.

  1822.  @whyamimrpink78  But if the woman is pregnant and is not legally allowed an abortion, then she's being forced to give birth, right? That's the only way the pregnancy situation ends. Assuming it's a viable pregnancy and not a statistically rare but still all-too-common case where an issue with the pregnancy places a lot of risk on the woman's health, in which case an abortion is needed to prevent wasteful death... So what you're saying is "don't have sex unless you want a baby". Am I understanding you right?

Except rather than show any incisive knowledge or understanding, your question was just the usual vagueries that fools try and pass off as common sense. So I can answer your question but, in all fairness, I asked first so... what's your expertise on the matter?

  1858. ​ @Chris-kv4vl Unless Labour started resembling a right-wing party. Which they have. My vote is going to the Greens, they support proportional representation.

  1866. Whenever there is a mass shooting, media outlets put together stuff like this. So many times, leading psychologists have asked them not to. Stuff like this has a direct effect in inspiring copy-cat crimes. Please, please take this down.

  1870.  @armstrong698  Sod "growth" policies. All these rich gits insisting we have to grow the economy, its just a coincidence that they'll get rich as a result while we get crumbs, at best. This growth-based ideology has gotten us where we are so let's focus on trying something new. Me, I'd prefer "sustainable".

  1895.  @Ausf  Right. Well, as someone who's worked in the warehouse and logistics industry for over a decade now, I can tell you that simply isn't true. It can take months of going through a dozen temps to find just one person worth keeping on. It then takes two to three years of training before they're truly up to speed. Most of these workers are not unskilled, you just don't understand why their skills are essential to providing the services to which so many have been accustomed.

And don't get me wrong, Blair has much to answer for. But if we're talking worst Prime Minister, you have to concede that Blair did all his awful dealings while still keeping the country running. You can argue that Boris has less blood on his hands, absolutely. But as for who did a worse job as Prime Minister? Absolutely Johnson, no question.

  1907. What you're suggesting is basically fascism. A state in which the common citizen lacks the basic right of a fair wage and any dissent on the matter risks military intervention. So people work out of fear and can't make ends meet, what kind of country are we then?

  1909. I don't think anyone would argue that this guy did the RIGHT thing but I'm seeing a lot of judgement from people having to make assumptions, since they don't actually know anything about the the guy. Hey, not everyone leads the same life as you or has the same options as you, has the same confidence or courage as you to reach out to others for help.

  1918. As another Stoke-ite, I will say it's not all roses. There's some idyllic little suburbs around the edge, but the town itself is rapidly collapsing into a dreary and dysfunctional place.

  1923. ​@Chris-dc6pu Rosa Banks was told to move because of the US' institutional racism. Coutts didn't want Farage as a customer because he's an odious operator. Pot, kettle, and far be it for me to defend a bank. But it's absolutely pathetic for you to try and compare ONE extra snooty bank refusing business to one person based on their very personal characteristics to a nationwide oppression of an entire people based on general characteristics.

  1938.  @c10wiremantawwallace13  If you dig a little deeper, you'll find that the slavery abolitionists of Lincoln's time were also deeply racist. Their call for the abolition of slavery was not based upon morals regarding the equality of humankind. I haven't proved your point but I have led you to prove that you don't know nearly as much about these topics as you think.

  1939. veteran0121 Straw man: an informal fallacy based on giving the impression of refuting an opponent's argument, while actually refuting an argument that was not advanced by that opponent. Y'know, 'cos I was getting crazy talking about the colour of the sky. You made the decision that you're informed enough about an individual, who has said maybe around 100 words to you, to make a completely off the wall comparison about how I would react if the sky changed colour. And you're calling everyone else idiots? In your bloody minded desire to "win" you've acted like a colossal moron who's angry rants are more applicable to yourself than anyone else involved in this thread. You're so worked up about this that you can't even stick to facts. You are literally making stuff up to support your ego. Which is what this is all about now. Your ego. That's why you're gonna keep on without actually saying anything new. It's the internet equivalent of a toddler stamping their feet and having a tantrum. Toddle on, kiddo. Happy Solstice.

  1941. +That Weird Ninja (Rockster2112) Dude... Go and add "context" to your vocabulary. Many words have more than one meaning depending on the context. The context is what informs us as to which meaning is intended. The context for this video tells us that they are talking specifically about extra-terrestrial aliens. The section where they discuss Cloverfield makes it clear that WatchMojo erred in their research (again). Well done for knowing that alien has a deeper meaning than just UFOs and tentacles but you've picked the wrong moment to try and show off your knowledge. And to multiple people in this comment thread... When it comes to fiction it doesn't really matter if you think the set-up is believable or not. Abrams stated that the monster is of this planet and always has been. Just because that seems ridiculous to you does not mean that's not how the movie canon goes. It's a shit film anyway but you can't tell the writer that they're wrong and you're right just because it makes more sense to you.

  1942. ***** Native terrestrial and it's on a WatchMojo list. I honestly don't know why I ever click on their videos, they do such little research into their lists it's painful how much they get wrong.

  1944. d0nj03 It's not a very solid point though, is it? He gives the example of the word "dwarf". You give the example of the insult "brain-dead fucktard". No, you were more interested in being insulting than making your point. So you went with a poor one. I mean, are you not misconstruing his comment? That's at best. At worst you're straw manning his argument. He's trying to be reasonable, whether you agree with him or not. You are making deliberate effort to be unreasonable.

  1956.  @aconcernedcitizen6056  You've not got a clue. For one thing, Labour and Tories are basically singing from the same sheet. The idea that either party are left wing when they; refuse to support worker's rights, refuse to take meaningful action on climate change, refuse to commit to safeguarding social safety nets and pursue hostile immigration policies... now THAT is ridiculous.

But I have no illusions that it'd tell me anything about myself and I also would expect to be largely appalled by the majority of them.

  1992.  @grahamherbert3612   Not sure why you were being so evasive if all you were gonna do is cite a Wikipedia article. But here's the thing, I never actually asked "what are Marxists". I asked "what Marxists" and the context should make clear that what I'm asking you to explain is the who the so-called Marxists you're referring to ARE. You can joke about one of the longest running manga serials, that I've been following since shortly after it started, but it's a bit of an own goal to take a shot at literature when your own literacy is questionable.

  1993. Would you also get the shrinks in to explain to the kids after they do a Nativity play or an activity focused around Easter celebrations? When I was a kid we had an actor come in dressed as a Roman legionary and they stayed in-character the whole time. Surely this would be too confusing to the kids?

  1996. Supporting Palestinian civilians does not make one an "Islamist". And while I don't agree with that man's arrest, it was less about his complaint against Palestinian flags and more about the racially charged language he used ABOUT Palestinians.

  1997. And Nazis get a kickin'.

  1998. 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.

  2001.  @gazsm1  All you're basing this on is the idea that a 16yo isn't mature or responsible enough to know who they are. So they're old enough that they can make the choice to sign up for the army and get blown to bits for their country, but not know who they are... gotcha. Just wanted to be sure that we were consistent and reasonable with what we feel 16yos are old enough to do.
    2
  2002.  @gazsm1  Never mentioned the front line, nor am I referencing any other piece of legislature sooo.... something about a gotcha? The point is the degree of responsibility you think a 16yo can have in the choices they make.

  2005.  @andyj845  What about spreading misinformation and encouraging people to commit violent crimes based upon it? Is that acceptable to you?
    2
  2006.  @andyj845  Not sure why you're getting yourself so twisted up trying to figure this out. If a public figure knowingly spreads misinformation and encourages people to act on it, and over the next week people DO act upon it and commit crimes that endanger other people... do you think the person who knowingly spread the misinformation is responsible?

  2014.  @tjmarx  But you do want evidence that voter fraud is actually an issue before spending a lot of taxpayer money setting up hurdles.
    2
  2015.  @tjmarx  Thanks for telling me you've got nothing left worth saying.
    2
  2016.  @tjmarx  I'm not the one who keeps trying to use someone breaking into your house or a pothole in the road as a suitable analogy for voter ID. If my argument is stupid, it's because your analogies are worthy of ridicule. While you've not addressed my point that voter control measures have overwhelmingly been used by undemocratic, often fascistic political figures. To further your rubbish analogy, it's like getting an active burglar to come round and design your home security.

  2046.  @sterlingarcher5698  You're conflating various different initiatives with this term "woke". That's like saying "hungry" means using everything in the kitchen to cook a big meal. 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".

But Trump adds malignant narcissism to that list of problems. I'd vote for Whoopi Goldberg over Biden too, but she ain't running. I'd vote for a fuckin' cartwheel over Trump. It wouldn't be able to make things worse.

    2
  2078.  @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
  2079.  @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
  2080.  @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.

  2084.  @daveblack8421  The idea of UBI is it means everyone has their essentials covered. Housing, bills, food, that can come out of the UBI. Your job still provides your wage and that gives you disposable income. It's win-win for everyone. Except perhaps the ultra-wealthy, but in every single one of their cases, their wealth has been stolen from the labour of others. So it's only fair.

  2105.  @jimthompson9370  I don't think the same as you so what does that prove? The fact you object to democratic process and you want to leave the ECHR tells me you aren't interested in self determination. You just want control. Not the same thing.

    2
  2115. I think that some of this is your own interpretation, rather than a dark reflection. Saying it's about "listen to me or else" is presuming the intention of the individual. If I'm trying to de-escalate a potentially violent situation there's a good chance that I'm dealing with someone really in the mindset to listen to reason right now. So some of that de-escalation is physical, such as how I position myself between them and their intended target, how I hold myself to appear in their eyes etc. I'm not thinking "listen to me or else". I'm thinking and trying to project this idea that "I'm not just gonna let you do this". And I think it works a lot of the time, because it forces them to start reasoning in their head. That suddenly what seemed like easy pickings is now going to be hard, it's not what they wanted at all. Before, when they were too angry and too sure of their own capabilities, they wouldn't listen. Now they're re-assessing their capabilities and that's sapping their anger. Now they're starting to calm down because they WANT to find a way out of this. You could argue that the end result is the same. Maybe that's true. But rather than me putting myself out there with an intent of "I could kill you so listen to me or else" I'm trying to do so with the intent of "I will protect and I won't let you push people around". In an ideal world, none of it would be necessary. But we don't. My town has a big problem with unpredictable, aggressive and often violent skagheads. I've interceded more than a dozen times in situations they've created but I've never once actually had to fight them. So my experience is that it's both needed and that it works.

  2130. What she doesn't understand is that she's actually talking about authoritarianism, which is a type of leadership and governance, rather than communism, which is a social structure. Communism is interested in property ownership and resource distribution that empowers workers, it's not concerned with matters of political censorship. Authoritarianism, on the hand, is all about controlling what your population can say and do, how they can vote etc. People think communism is the same as authoritarianism because of Stalin, and the dictators who have fashioned themselves in his image.

  2142.  @Thanatos6  I said something about it because it's effectively what you're doing. You literally questioned why people talk about Trump. So there's a couple problems with everything you've just said. Firstly, not only are we capable of multitasking, we NEED to. There are too many issues facing our species right now and if we do as you suggest, become isolationist in our concerns and take a single minded approach to dealing with said issues then we're doomed to fail, largely in part due to my second point which is... All these issues are connected. You want to talk about climate change? Then you need to be considering the various leaders of our world's superpowers, as these people affect policy that determines how we approach a problem like climate change. You need to think of the big picture.
    2
  2143.  @BowerMediaOne  Because China and India undertook massive tree planting projects. Meanwhile we lose millions of square km of land each year to desertification.
    2
  2144.  @BowerMediaOne  Desertification? Right now, mainly Africa. Most of the increased CO2 emissions from the Amazon are the result of fires, often for the purpose of land clearing. Its also as a result of warming and droughts. I don't think it's my "research" that's lacking...
    2
  2145.  @BowerMediaOne  Why is Africa feeling the brunt? Because its already a hot and dry place. It wouldn't start in Siberia, would it? I'm really not sure what you're getting at in regards to population/CO2 output. This is a global issue.
    2
  2146.  @BowerMediaOne  I never said Africa was the only place global warming was having an effect. I said that was mainly where desertification is taking place. The intense cold snap in the US is another aspect of climate shift. Because it leads to extremes of weather. And saying that "none" of the predictions have come true is far too broad. Which predictions and who were they made by? And here's my challenge to you: see if you can reply while just sticking to the topic. Resist your urge to try and insult me.

  2160.  @bomblade15  You made a very broad statement about people choosing a sexuality, for lifestyle or other reasons. You did nothing to support that statement, didn't provide any evidence... but you demand it of another when they disagreed with you. Why are you not holding yourself to that same standard?
    2
  2161. Shut up. This is tired old nonsense that gets wheeled out every time by Farage fanboys. I'm a working class person but I'm savvy enough to see Farage for the conman he is, to see how gullible and easily led some people are to blindly follow him.
    2
  2162. Because its a fash tactic and Trump was a fash puppet.
    2
  2163. What culture and traditions would those be and how did the leftists attack them?
    2
  2164. In other news, up is now down...
    2
  2165. That's not true, something you'd be able to see if you actually looked at the victims. I think you're racist and looking for an angle.
    2
  2166. Who's running? Tommy, when he disappears off to Spain? Farage, when he scoots off to the US to brown-nose Trump?
    2
  2167. I'm a single chap so I don't struggle with food costs to the same extent families do. Doesn't mean I haven't felt the impact, though. £30 used to fill my cupboards for a month, now that's weekly.
    2
  2168.  @jacqueslandry2319  Exactly, define what? British culture has changed and shifted constantly because that's what people do. You can't comprehensively define British culture for everyone.
    2
  2169. Define "biological woman".
    2
  2170.  @SM-fk5or  But reality doesn't care about your perception of it. You might not think there's a place for transgender people within reality, but that's just your fantasy. "The science" that so many anti-trans people like to reference does not actually support your position.
    2
  2171.  @NoLefTurnUnStoned.  But you don't know anything about biology. We already established that. So who are you to say "what" people actually are?
    2
  2172.  @blueshirtman8875  Erm... do you think that ONLY intelligent succeed and achieve? Buddy, open a history book. While intelligence can lead to success, no path is surer or quicker than being born into money and being ruthlessly egotistical.
    2
  2173. Yes, he's dealing with them so well... what was it, Kyiv in a week? And that was over a year ago...
    2
  2174.  @Robert_DeVille  I'm voting Green, in line with the principles I hold.
    2
  2175. Yeah, good luck with that.
    2
  2176. What about the KKK?
    2
  2177.  @johnf4279  I don't need to check them. I wrote them. Come back when you know what's going on.
    2
  2178.  @johnf4279  Now its my turn to ask what that has to do with anything.
    2
  2179.  @michaeljones1133  Oh look, the dogfighting apologist has found a misogynist friend to team up with!
    2
  2180. Yeah? Nothing at all to do with the previous administration that was in power for 14 years? No, just Labour who've been in for less than 14 months. You're a very smart person.
    2
  2181.  @middleman9183  Sure. That's still ignoring the elephant in the room. On purpose.
    2
  2182. Listen to what? Lies?
    2
  2183. ​ @NinjaSquirrel30 There's enough of us, stop flapping.
    2
  2184. ​@user-ls7xf4lk6tIs that your go-to for when you have nothing to actually say?
    2
  2185. Gave him more of a telling than you are.
    2
  2186. ​ @Demun1649 You sound a little unhinged chap. Everything alright?
    2
  2187.  @Demun1649  You can't block people from replying to you on YouTube. Nor was I responding to a question you'd posed. Can you see why I asked what I did?
    2
  2188. ​ @justknows8164  It's more that the "AI" is doing an online search, aggregating existing opinions and arguments, presenting them in a standard template format. It's not able to apply critical thinking or imagination to the answer.
    2
  2189.  @justknows8164  Show how it's demonstrated critical thinking.
    2
  2190.  @resistancefighter9009  Explained but not evidenced. You claim it's not up for debate, but if you can't definitively prove that the documents Zelensky signed were to cede control of Ukraine to Germany then it IS, in fact, up for debate.
    2
  2191. These political parties are one of the main problems. Get rid of the parties, we should have an easier time forming a truly representative government. Eliminate lobbying, change the system so instead of government focusing on enriching wealthy donors, focus on improving standard of living of everyone in the country. It's a big shift but we've gotta do something. This isn't working.
    2
  2192. If they can't get a bank account, they can't get a job.
    2
  2193. What's scientifically unfounded about concerns regarding nuclear waste?
    2
  2194.  @reaperj550  Why do you think he's right? He has no expertise on the matter, just a history of profiting off of controversy and grief.
    2
  2195. Its not new, sadly. There were attempts at starting an American Nazi party before, during and even AFTER the war.
    2
  2196. Yeah. Priests have an almost spotless record.
    2
  2197.  @sunamcm1  Like you said, the larger scandal is the cover-up. In which all are complicit.
    2
  2198.  @sunamcm1  If you join the Catholic Church as a priest and don't campaign against the hierarchy that had enabled and protected child rapists, then you're complicit.
    2
  2199. Personally, I do agree with not eating out of season. It's not resource efficient but shouldn't be seen as some medieval step back. However, in this context I also think its a really weak response that doesn't even begin to address the scale of crisis we're facing.
    2
  2200. You can't say multiculturalism has failed and then point to people who refuse to accept it as the reason. That's laughable.
    2
  2201.  @fredarcher7264  It's not semantics at all. It's identifying cause and effect. Why on earth did you think it was semantics?
    2
  2202.  @fredarcher7264  And, to your other comment... doesn't get more pompous than trying to talk down to people while not actually having any substance that you can defend. That's you, by the way.
    2
  2203. Where was Musk's outrage when the Tories failed to act on their own inquiry? Like pretty much everything about him, its purely performative.
    2
  2204. ​ @Justinian-IV Nah, it's Starmer trying to purge left wing sentiment from the party.
    2
  2205. And there's no evidence that they weren't, so what's your point?
    2
  2206.  @TheRedStateBlue  Simply repeating that doesn't make it so.
    2
  2207.  @MCDONALD6969  Was and remains to be. Funnily enough, when you cut funding to numerous pillars of society, things crumble.
    2
  2208. You start by blaming Palestinian civilians, then openly express the goal all along and make clear that there's nothing Palestinians could do. You want their land.
    2
  2209.  @The_Phoenix_Saga  You don't really have any idea, do you? As if you would survive even the first winter without a society supporting you...
    2
  2210.  @The_Phoenix_Saga  Yeah, keep telling yourself that. Doesn't begin to address what I said but my expectations for you are consistently dropping, so...
    2
  2211.  @Rosskles  Okay, you started by talking about hypothetical questions before immediately switching to rhetorical questions. They're not the same thing. A hypothetical question is one based on a supposition.
    2
  2212. ​ @garethmccartan3636 The bible is really badly written, repeats itself a lot and is far too vague for something purporting to be a sort of life-guide. It's value as a source of history is pretty low, with numerous other sources required to validate it. When you could just use other sources.
    2
  2213.  @JamesSmith-qs4hx  Broadly true, from a very basic perspective. "Control" is a little strong, it's more like an influence. But the tilt of the earth plays a much larger part. I'm not sure who controls me, that's a deep philisophical question. But it's pretty clear who pulls your strings.
    2
  2214. Why are you unable?
    2
  2215. ​ @SimonWardleMillar You really don't get what a loophole is, huh?
    2
  2216. How do you figure? There weren't any police on the scene when the children were murdered.
    2
  2217. ​ @davidatkinson5858 Why is that fact "inconvenient"?
    2
  2218. A satire on what, themselves? Then the conclusion is the same. I suspect you're using a word you don't actually understand.
    2
  2219. If by "their own audience", you mean their online content being swarmed by users with no previous history on that channel, many of which with very fresh accounts, coming and repeating the same lines ad nauseum... then sure.
    2
  2220.  @MarkMark-xz4ff  Oh wow, 11? What a sample size. I've seen plenty that are less than a week, but by all means, go off with your 11.
    2
  2221.  @sen7706  "a lot more" and "all"... yeah. But thanks for playing.
    2
  2222. So you think you should be able to decide who you vote for? A minor, perhaps? Or a foreign national? A convicted criminal? Doesn't make much sense, does it? So it's almost like some people thought long and hard about this, coming up with a system of guidelines, rules for navigating the whole process...
    2
  2223. ​ @Infern0121 Seems like an unnecessarily myopic perspective. Are you bitter or ignorant?
    2
  2224. @ImloyaltoScotlandonly  I used quite a few other words but I appreciate if you struggle with anything more than three letters long.
    2
  2225. What does cutting the tracks have to do with a clean-up operation.
    2
  2226.  @crystalmasters8582  And it achieves what?
    2
  2227.  @jemimacoop2726  The irony of you calling me an "NPC" while spouting an unoriginal "stock" line is noted.
    2
  2228.  @j377yb33n  Is that better? Or is it just an even worse case of what I just described?
    2
  2229.  @barbthegreat586  The rational reason would be that it's sustainable and doesn't leave us dependent on imported food.
    2
  2230. ​ @commentatorofstuff You're trying to deflect from the actual point with your strawman.
    2
  2231. ​ @stubstoo6331 To many English, you're all Yanks.
    2
  2232. Religious opinions carry no weight in this matter.
    2
  2233.  @HalaMadrid-qy7rk  No, it doesn't. It wouldn't matter if everyone but one believed it, if the one who doesn't is the one who is choosing this option for themselves.
    2
  2234. Only to the gullible.
    2
  2235.  @anonomous8719  How do you know they're a bot?
    2
  2236. ​ @suzann2531 Except the bear doesn't then go and massacre 30k+ innocent civilians. Leave animals out of your awful analogy, they've done nothing wrong.
    2
  2237. Neither does the rot these Reform voters are obsessed with, yet they're pretending it does.
    2
  2238.  @Carmen.B247  Oh, that was yesterday's march. Yeah, numerous speakers condemned Hamas, their actions and called for the immediate release of hostages.
    2
  2239. We're not in the middle of the Atlantic and no, tornadoes are definitely not the norm.
    2
  2240. No, that's just playing into the problem.
    2
  2241. Until you get sick.
    2
  2242. Of course that's straight where your mind goes.
    2
  2243. You think being concerned about a rise in fascism is being a snowflake?
    2
  2244. @ Why did you delete your other comment, the one that mocked the idea of a rise in fascism? You're definitely telling us who you are.
    2
  2245. ​ @benjamindover4337  When you have to lie so obviously to try and make your point, any reasonable person would have to question the value of their point.
    2
  2246. So what, Hawaii isn't suffering under wildfires 'cos your son said so?
    2
  2247. And what do you think the truth is?
    2
  2248. ​ @Deleteyourself83 So this is a classic case of commenting before watching...
    2
  2249.  @Deleteyourself83  So they actually addressed the very thing you're complaining about, but your complaint still stands? Thanks for giving us all a great demonstration of entrenched bias at work.

  2250. ​ @ricardocabeza6006  "Yeah right, next you'll be telling me that fire spreads!"
    2
  2251. ​ @moirmu3067 So aside from the silly culture war points, how's he going to make Netherlands affordable?
    2
  2252. ​ @Jimdixon1953 The officer in the Manchester airport incident used excessive force against a subdued individual. By being cleared of any wrongdoing, the police are effectively given the go-ahead to use violence in an emotionally driven, punitive manner. That should concern you.
    2
  2253.  @SkageXL5  You know that's rubbish. You know the result was 48/52. Barely over half the Brits wanted this. Factor in all the people who couldn't vote but expressly opposed Brexit, its much less than half.
    2
  2254.  @SkageXL5  What has that got to do with anything I said? You're just swinging wildly at people, give it a rest.
    2
  2255.  @KyleTheDalek  Difficult to remember things that didn't happen...
    2
  2256. ​ @kevinmcdonagh1063 So why do you think the Tories have a monopoly on British culture?
    2
  2257.  @operationgoldfish8331  How does that translate into them defining British culture?
    2
  2258. I feel like Hayden got done a bit dirty by a really bad script. I honestly don't know the quality of his acting chops, I haven't seen him in anything else. But I know that Portman and McGregor, Jackson, Christopher god's damned Lee... these people are incredible actors. And even there performance in those films often seemed stilted and flat. Great directors can get amazing performances out of even middling actors. You can definitely make an argument for the prequels being underrated but I think we also need to acknowledge that the script was pretty bad and it doesn't seem like a lot of effort was made to pull quality performers from ANY of the cast. I wish I could have seen Hayden have a fair run at it, instead of being made to deliver some of the worst romantic lines ever.
    2
  2259. Do you have any evidence that Islamic migrants commit crime at a higher rate?
    2
  2260.  @giovanniturco6428  Why should Russia be able to invade other countries without retaliation?
    2
  2261. Yes, ignore the evidence presented before you and only take the word of this random stranger.
    2
  2262. Except he lied.
    2
  2263.  @rjkmusicmedia  If they're pro-choice, why would they fight and deny them?
    2
  2264. So there was this protest for peace in Palestine today, right? And these guys were against, or "anti", that. So they turned out to defend a monument that wasn't under threat from a march that never went past it, as had been repeatedly stated.
    2
  2265. 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.
    2
  2266. You're welcome to go hear what Vance has said on the matter.
    2
  2267. The fact that Hamas were ever able to take power gives you the answer to that one.
    2
  2268. Who are the "usual suspects"?
    2
  2269. Stop using terms you don't understand. The US is not a banana republic.
    2
  2270. ​ @thebrightsided136 Do you think someone crossing the road is just "walking in the road"?
    2
  2271. Key aspect of the kinda conspiratorial thinking used to manipulate and exploit these people. The enemy must be vague and nebulous, so that it can be changed to fit their political needs.
    2
  2272.  @wolfen210959  Who hurt you?
    2
  2273. People are getting too smart to fall for the sky fairy thing anymore.
    2
  2274. ​ @joeg1897 You should read your own from time to time.
    2
  2275. @GretsGarbo I do. But hey, you carry on not thinking. Seems to be going well for you...
    2
  2276. I don't like their tactics either. I'd rather see them chucking soup over an oil exec or blocking tankers from leaving depots. But I will defend their right to protest. Its essential and the worst effects of their protests are nothing compared to what we've got coming if this apathy continues.
    2
  2277.  @SuperJinxter  We have an infrastructure that isn't able to adequately support the existing system. You want to add greater burden onto that, you want to create extra work that isn't presently being done. What do you think that entails?
    2
  2278.  @Garycarlyle  And how does that result in us avoiding the high cost of private healthcare that plagues the US?
    2
  2279.  @Garycarlyle  But healthcare isn't a product. How does any of what you've said apply to healthcare?
    2
  2280. ​ @fritsgerms3565  What have they misunderstood? I don't buy this whole "they'll just leave". They make money off the UK, you think they'll choose to leave and make NO money instead of pay a fairer share?
    2
  2281.  @every5thman947  So we can progress.
    2
  2282.  @gmshadowtraders  You're more into regressive attitudes, huh?
    2
  2283. I guess Tom doesn't want to find then?
    2
  2284. No. Divers can work, at most, at depths of barely over 100 metres. Any deeper and the pressure is too much. We don't know where the submersible is or how deep it is. But the Titanic is about 3,810 metres down. So even if the submersible is only a quarter of the way down, its too deep for divers.
    2
  2285. ​ @livinglight1628  Are you equally concerned by male school teachers?
    2
  2286.  @GavinGas  You don't know anything. So you can be safely ignored.
    2
  2287.  @Baresi-Unico-Capitano  They should turn up 'cos it's their damn job! I'm not a fan of everyone I have to work with but I can't just choose to fob it off if I want to retain my job.
    2
  2288. ​ @eddiecalderone Not as much as the point Dub raised.
    2
  2289. ​ @Lovelyday137 Why "of course"? What information are you privy to that makes you so sure?
    2
  2290.  @Dale_The_Space_Wizard  Then explain the joke. The set-up, the punchline, the context that it works in. Explain why it was just an innocent joke to you.
    2
  2291.  @vladtheimpaler8995  What does "woke" mean, in your mind?
    2
  2292. ​ @Scottie444 Oh yeah, there was no need whichever way you cut it.
    2
  2293. Immigration is a big source of labour for the NHS so curbing that might not have the results you want. Less staff means more pressure on the service. As for "benefits", they don't mean anything if you can't afford to pay rent or put food on the table.
    2
  2294. Saying "end of" doesn't make it so, nor does pretending to he the spokesperson of All Women Everywhere.
    2
  2295.  @MostlyLoveOfMusic  Just the ones that show clear contradiction and hypocrisy. How can you claim love and empathy for all people when you're a dim-witted misogynist?
    2
  2296.  @MostlyLoveOfMusic  My claims which directly reference what you've said... How does that work? Did you not say "women are awful"?
    2
  2297.  @MostlyLoveOfMusic  But clearly you think it's something inherent to women, else you'd have just said "some people are awful".
    2
  2298. There's some kind of mental gymnastics going on where they convince themselves that the victims are the ones to blame.
    2
  2299. Or Starmer is afraid the British public is dumb enough to out him back in office. The consequences of which should give us all a shiver.
    2
  2300. Do you think people have a choice and they just prefer to rent?
    2
  2301. ​ @kanegoodnight5695 How? He didn't do it last time, what's different about him now?
    2
  2302. ​ @gameosapien13 If you can't explain it, you don't get it.
    2
  2303. Then they're failing. Labour had a strong lead, simply by dint of not being the Tories, which they have squandered and continue to squander, on account of... being the Tories.
    2
  2304.  @foestrang  You're a pretty sick individual, good luck with that.
    2
  2305. ​ @IanLynch-b7e  But don't worry about what the OP said, right? That makes perfect sense to you?
    2
  2306. You think people are entitled for wanting a roof over their head? You're sick.
    2
  2307. Like what? Remember what got him canned.
    2
  2308. In what way was Lerner trying to have a discussion when he got muted? He was being hysterical.
    2
  2309. ​ @beecee2205 Its fear of scarcity. Greed is a poison.
    2
  2310. What kind of discussion and resolution do you see arising specifically from them being named?
    2
  2311.  @doodle1983  Where's the joke?
    2
  2312.  @doodle1983  There's nothing clear about that. Nor is that at all better than if he was slagging her appearance. What a weird defence to make.
    2
  2313. Fact checked your claim and its not true. A Dutch court ruled that it has jurisdiction to hear civil claims against Gates in regards to Covid vaccines. That is NOT the same as him being indicted for misleading people.
    2
  2314. Explain how the English don't have England anymore. I'm curious if you can in any way draw a comparison between what was done to the Chagos islanders. I'm gonna bet you can't. Prove me wrong.
    2
  2315.  @Emperorli90  I agree. I just want to challenge the assertion so other people aren't swayed by the empty claim.
    2
  2316.  @VaporRize08  Please elaborate on these really bad consequences.
    2
  2317.  @Suscida  That's a really weak argument. Starting with "there's plenty of literature" and then not naming a single one is pretty poor. But the way you characterise a person's self-identification as "normalising body dysmorphia" is completely backwards. By giving an individual the right to self-identify, you address the body dysmorphia at the route. Whereas the alternatives... therapy, medication... yeah, that's life-long, expensive in the case of therapy and rife with side-effects in the case of medication.
    2
  2318.  @BillyBob-rm3ve  Never mind, eh? It's the thought that counts.
    2
  2319. It's bad but wouldn't go that far. US definitely have us beat and there's gonna be places in the world where the cops don't even try to pretend. Doesn't mean we can't demand more from ours, of course.
    2
  2320. Because said car is contributing disproportionately to air pollution levels. What's wrong with wanting cleaner air for everyone in your city to breathe?
    2
  2321.  @pauldrummyb2017  Ordinary citizens saying other people shouldn't be allowed to vote (based on their woefully poor understanding of political and social situations) isn't actually the same as the government deciding and enforcing a ban on voting based upon people's political and social opinions. It's not a restriction if there's no actual effect as a result of it. Can you understand that?
    2
  2322. Police have bodycams. Airports are filled with CCTV. Let's see the footage.
    2
  2323. Can you support this allegation with evidence and does that evidence show them to be representative of trans people as a whole or is it isolated incidents that prove nothing?
    2
  2324. This is literally the fear mongering started by American Nazis to try and recruit more people to their cause. Is it one you identify with?
    2
  2325.  @neglectfulsausage7689  Ah, so its a guilt complex projecting as an irrational paranoia. Got it.
    2
  2326. Grow up.
    2
  2327. Your whole rant falls down at the first hurdle, you've failed to demonstrate that politics is a form of religion. For one thing, it's frequently questioned, debated and refined.
    2
  2328. Neither are gonna happen though.
    2
  2329. You have to remember how sensitive little Benny is about his height...
    2
  2330. Extraordinary things like abusing worker's rights and exploiting them to make himself rich?

What they actually asked you was whether anyone died or if they were incited and lead by someone who'd just lost a democratic election. I'm paraphrasing that last bit but it's important context. Here's the thing, the Oxford dictionary defines insurrection as a violent uprising against an authority or government. Gun control is a concept, not an authority. And their protest was peaceful. This is not comparable to a large mob storming a government building seeking to overturn an election because their guy lost. What this is, it's denying citizens of their right to protest a state of affairs harming their nation.

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.

Now you're backpedalling and trying to move the goalposts because you commented without thinking. "But we know he did it" means you can't compare it to a situation where the culprit wasn't caught red-handed. That is all it means. Not whatever bizarre implication that you want to spin it into.

  2691.  @noelsalisbury7448  Nah, those two were just obvious. I don't disagree that the governments of African nations are deeply corrupt, I just don't think we're much better in Europe or the Americas. But yeah, many African countries are deeply fractured with poor infrastructure. Colonialism has a lot to answer for in that regard. And stuff like LiveAid and the annual charities I remember from me childhood, that was all very performative. We've (the Royal We) never tried to help in substantive ways. Humanity needs a mission. Something to bring us together and give better lives to those in need and a sense of purpose to those of us lacking one. I think working together to make every nation on earth a safe and fulfilling place is a worthy mission.

    2
  2703.  @Killersam776  I disagree with this reasoning. You're equating someone's immutable identity with someone's acquired, even chosen views. That if we rule that it's wrong to discriminate against someone based on who they fundamentally are, it's equally wrong to discriminate against someone based on ideas they believe. This starts drifting into that absolute tolerance paradox. Some people are gay. Some people think that gay people shouldn't exist. It's impossible to have the same tolerance for both groups. So who do you side with?

Which ties into why BP would "risk their reputation". Their reputation is garbage, they're an oil company.

Funny how you're trying to say it was Dems who colluded with the Russian government, despite there being clear proof that the GRU repeatedly reached out to Trump's campaign and worked with several of his people to spread disinformation. The pee tapes was just one small allegation within that whole investigation, it wasn't the important part, just one that media outlets could get easy clicks out of. How true was that particular story? No idea. Probably won't ever know. Doesn't matter. At this point, you're trying to use misinformation misinformation deflect.

  2852. ​ @finalcut612  TJ likes to accuse other people of being "fake" accounts. Which is ironic given that they've cropped down a random stock photo to use as a pfp and chose a very obvious bit of wordplay as their account name. They're really just interested in misdirection and disinformation.

  2859. That's twisting facts a bit. They put a pause on offering jobs to white blokes in an effort to meet diversity quotas and one person has resigned in protest. You can argue the toss over diversity quotas and their flaws, sure. But don't make stuff up.

  2865.  @Edward-hv9ww  If you weren't referring to genocide then why did you reply to me? I'll clarify, so you can understand why I'm asking this; you came and interjected yourself into an ongoing conversation, discussing what qualifies as genocide, with a non-sequitur. Now you're backpedalling and saying you were never referring to genocide. So why did you insert yourself into a conversation about genocide? You're trying to make me out the fool for drawing a reasonable and logical conclusion, when in truth it seems that you really don't understand how conversation works.
    2
  2866.  @roninhood1027  Because you say so? Nah.
    2
  2867.  @Edward-hv9ww  So you were talking about genocide then. Why say you weren't? And can you start to understand why it's impossible to take you seriously?

  2888. There really was no counter-demonstration. The fash mob concerned themselves with causing trouble near the cenotaph and in Chinatown. They never confronted the peace march. And it was a peace march. While not without a few idiots turning up with inappropriate placards or headress, the vastly overwhelming majority of the march came together in solidarity for human suffering. Hamas were condemned by the speakers and hostage releases demanded. While its unlikely that Netenyahu or Hamas will stop fighting based solely on one march, it does cause pressure on governments. And since our government is providing military and financial aid to Israel, if we can pressure them into stopping that it's better than nothing. And armstice literally means ceasefire. Armstice Day is about commemorating the cessation of hostilities in WWI. You're confusing Armstice Day with Remembrance Day but they are not the same thing. And what more appropriate a time to march for a ceasefire than on a day dedicated to remembering one? So what values do you think are being eroded? Is ignorance of our own history to be considered a British value now? I wish someone had told me, I wouldn't have wasted so much time learning about it...

    2
  2897.  @davidadiwego4608  Give me an example of a once-illegal thing that you consider comparable to a person's sexuality.
    2
  2898.  @davidadiwego4608  Probably because putting a picture of an aborted fetus on the side of police cars would raise eyebrows. Meanwhile, many would argue that the rainbow flag, representing equal love for all, covers inter racial marriage. So what's your problem with gay people? You clearly have one.

  2899.  @tisFrancesfault  They were never supposed to be any kind of humanitarian aid, either. The purpose was always control. And they evolved into death camps. So there's that, too.

  2900. The "notion" of universal healthcare has nothing to do with insurance. It works because healthcare is funded by everyone's tax contributions and is free at the point of use. It breaks when people try to make it profitable and its never even been earnestly attempted in the US.
    2
  2901.  @belkentens  No, not everything. That's a dishonest interpretation of what I said. Which is true to form for you. No, you're just in no position to call anyone out as a liar when you defend one of our era's most prolific liars as an honest man.

    2
  2928.  @sinthariasinestra9777  Nope, it's because anthropogenic warming is global and results in climate change. But some people couldn't get their head around that concept so scientists had to try and simplify it for them.

    2
  2940.  @nandc61  And now, over 30 years later, he's pushing neoliberal policy. Just because he wrote some articles in his twenties doesn't mean he's a Marxist, you have to look at his actions now. And I'll ask again because you must have missed it, what do you think Marxism is?

    2
  2944.  @pingunootfan5627  And why is that?
    2
  2945. ... because he's making a rhetorical point. That doesn't mean he's going to make a statement that he doesn't believe just for the sake of upsetting people. I'm not sure what you think you're proving.

    2
  2964.  @_ArsNova  So if firearms aren't the issue, you could remove firearms and the exact same scenarios would still be playing out with the same frequency. Is that honestly the argument you want to make?
    2
  2965. This has nothing to do with that and you'd have to be pretty far-gone to think otherwise.
    2
  2966. Have you got any evidence of that?
    2
  2967.  @reson8  So you provide no proof for your own assertion, demand evidence from anyone disagreeing with you only to weakly dismiss it when given. Very telling.
    2
  2968.  @binghamguevara6814  Why do you care?
    2
  2969.  @keifer7813  Because they're stupid questions, which suggests you have other motives for asking.

  2970.  @nathanaelsmith3553  If you have a good MP then absolutely vote for them. I have an awful MP but the Labour candidate is a wet blanket, they're a dud.

    2
  2981.  @cujimmi  Really? Because your comment about how you can't think of a war without civilian casualties reads purely as dismissive. So what would judging them all equally entail, to you?
    2
  2982.  @cujimmi  And what do you think it proves?
    2
  2983.  @cujimmi  Which shows that you don't understand your own question.

  3005.  @notjustforhackers4252  The problem is that evidence has been presented and the debate has been had. But the fossil fuel industry encouraged a a bunch of know-nothing loons, made furious by their insecurity, to insist that the debate wasn't done because they hadn't personally been consulted. That is, pretty much, how simple it is. But go ahead and deny it anyway, go on. It'll make you feel better.

And one could convincingly argue that the Armada's "defeat" came about primarily due to their own mistakes in underestimating bad weather in the channel. On the note of being "married to England", by refusing to marry or name an heir she actually gambled with England's stability. It was a power play that could easily have gone wrong, while really not gaining anything beyond reinforcing her reputation. That's what she was best at; cultivating her legacy to be as favourable as possible. I don't think she was a bad monarch, as they go, but I see more evidence that the timing of her reign was fortuitous for her.

    2
  3216. Two important details you've left out... There was a bit more to WW2 than you've briefly alluded to. Stopping the holocaust was a big deal. But it sounds like you're implying we shouldn't have been involved because "Britain was in no immediate danger". You then go on to reference NATO "poking the Russian bear", which is a bit disingenuous as it doesn't consider that Russia started this conflict by invading Ukraine.

  3220.  @simonelliot3712  The gentleman doth protest too much.
    2
  3221. You'd get a better conclusion by looking at which MPs fiddled expenses and how much. My local MP is a Tory, Maria Miller, she fiddled her expenses and got away with an apology. Because people didn't apply the same rules to everybody.
    2
  3222.  @MAGAted  You're missing the point, which is that the same rules WEREN'T applied to everybody.
    2
  3223.  @MAGAted  Your initial assertion is flawed because it looks only at the end outcome, MPs that either lost their job or were prosecuted. What you're not looking at is how many MPs actually fiddled expenses and for how much. That gives a much more complicated picture to analyse. Especially when you have to consider the fact that when it comes to MPs who lost their jobs, that was largely down to them choosing to resign. Of the most prominent cases of expense fraud, there's 21 on Labour's side and 27 on the Tory side. More cases on the Tory side, but less resignations. What does that tell us about who's more corrupt? Now let's look at one of the Labour MPs who was prosecuted, David Chaytor. He got 18 months for fraudulently claiming £18,350. Maria Miller was concluded to have fraudulently claimed £44,000. She repaid about £5,800 and still holds her office. Tell me again who was given an easier ride?
    2
  3224.  @MAGAted  That's a bit of a word-salad response but basically boils down to you putting your fingers in your ears and declaring that you can't hear me. Yet you believe that it was YOU who overestimated ME?
    2
  3225. "Because we always did it that way" is rarely a good reason to keep doing something. Times change. You now have a much bigger population, the logistics of getting it all done in one day is unrealistic.

    2
  3236.  @englishsteve1465  Yeah, in many respects we're at the mercy of corporations telling us this is just the way it is. But it's not the way it has to be. We've more or less accepted it for a few generations now because we have warm and dry homes, relatively affordable "little luxuries" and food on the shelves. But now a lot of people are facing a cold winter without heat, many are having having to cut back to the bare basics and even then the supermarket shelves are starting to go unfilled... I hope corporate interests are taking this seriously because if people are pushed too far they may decide that the massive social upheaval is worth it.

  3238.  @Baresi-Unico-Capitano  "And given the fact that he's vs child slavery means that he has effectively matured enough as an individual to recognise what is detrimental and what isn't" The implication here is that you think homosexuality IS detrimental. Is that accurate?
    2
  3239.  @Baresi-Unico-Capitano  Yeah, gonna call BS on everything you just said because... "And given the fact that he's vs child slavery means that he has effectively matured enough as an individual to recognise what is detrimental and what isn't" Your words. Your equivalency. YOU are stating that you see homosexuality as detrimental.

  3251.  @hyperquantum3020  Do I? 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. I'm English, born and bred, but the culture I was raised in is clearly very different to the culture someone like, say, Stephen Yaxley-Lennon or Nigel Farage were raised in. So explain that one with your weak and vaguely defined nonsense.
    2
  3252.  @hyperquantum3020  England. Any other stupid questions? Do you want me to explain what the "bred" part of "born and bred" means?
    2
  3253.  @reeling-in  What do you think happened then?
    2
  3254. 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.
    2
  3255. ​ @CursedWheelieBin That's not what gaslighting is, nor have you actually explained WHY it means people are shifting right-wing. I don't see much evidence of that either. More like some people showing who they've always been.

  3259.  @markasbury1084  Oh, right. The whole "write me a book or you don't know anything" routine. For one thing, how much of someone's time do you think you're worth? I've already spent too much time on you. I'd be sat here hours if I went through everything just in my head, even more if I dug out my old courseworks. And if I did, you certainly wouldn't bother to read it, because you're only looking for something that affirms your perspective, of "who the English are". Then you end with this daft "we ended slavery" line, like that's a gotcha to all the ills of colonialism. Never minding that colonialism continued long after, committed a whole pantheon of crimes against humanity besides slavery and left deep scars that still bleeding today. So is that all you got?

    2
  3263.  @cujimmi  Compelling argument.
    2
  3264.  @thenet3d  That's not true. If you had a scale with the manliest man at one end and the womanliest woman at the other end, where would you put the dividing line to create only two genders?
    2
  3265.  @thenet3d  I'm not talking about behaviour or how one acts. How do you define male, biologically? Same for female? There are physical, biological differences in all of us that determine where we sit on the spectrum. But where would you place the dividing line. Don't tell me I seem confused when you've clearly not given this any thought.

  3266. Doesn't always dominate, actually. Usually doesn't, in fact.

Are you aware how many wars have ended not from wiping out a threat but by bringing both sides to the negotiating table? And yeah, if you've signed up to the rules of war then you need to follow them. Doesn't matter who you're fighting.
    2
  3285.  @userxyz64  It's the "changing" facts part I have issue with. The facts really haven't changed. Its just taken some people a lot, lot longer to accept them.

  3286. So you're saying it's the fault of the mother? I'm impressed that you found a way to circle that line of thinking back around to being sexist again. Saddened, but impressed.
    2

  3288. No lions here, chap. That's a foreign import, just like Christianity and ol' St George.

  3289.  @test-bu8sw  Or am I cancelling out your vote? And if you think voting is the be-all, you're simpler than your comments let on.

  3290. Highest in Cumbria.
    2
  3291.  @alfredestrada2729  Are you able to measure that? Widespread tourism wasn't a thing prior to her time on the throne. And plenty of European countries, like France, got rid of their monarchy but their palaces do better than ours when it comes to tourism.
    2
  3292.  @dragonfly6908  Nah, you just know how to be disingenuous.

  3294. Funny that you think either platform is leftist.

    2
  3300. I've seen various different studies which all conclude that housing and feeding everyone, absolutely everyone, no questions asked is morally correct and also the "selfish" thing to do in terms of most positive gain for any given individual. Basically, we ALL benefit from providing for each other.
    2
  3301.  @richardgallagher4880  Your scripts broken again.

    2
  3309. Like he did with those cave rescuers in Thailand?
    2
  3310. Consider his other actions, such as his support of the German AFD party. That's context.
    2
  3311. @ Israel is currently run by a right-wing government with a strong far-right element pulling them further across. What point do you think you're making?
    2
  3312. You should be asking whether that claim is true instead.
    2
  3313. The idea is to call for a ceasefire, not a holy war, and you wanna do some self-reflection if you only spend one day a year remembering the fallen.

  3315. I'd imagine he probably learnt English while in the UK, where he trained as a doctor and now lives... when he's not selflessly putting himself at risk to help people, of course. Doctors... what are they like?
    2
  3316. Criticism of Israeli actions towards Palestine doesn't constitute antisemitism, not least because Palestinians are also a semitic people.
    2
  3317. The full context of this piece, he knew one guy who had a reputation for being kinda scummy. People shrugged and made excuses for not saying anything, and eventually the guy committed a heinous crime against a woman. The point is, call out scumbags. Its really that simple. So why do you feel the need to go on the personal attack against him?

    2
  3322.  @permabear6025  Then you've completely missed the very obvious argument he's making in place of your own fixation. He's not saying being uninterested in theatre or opera or ballet is bad. That's not idiotic, that's just personal taste. He's saying that viewing it as "posh" and building up class barriers between ourselves and forms of artistic expression is idiotic and playing into the hands of fascists who seek to keep us divided.

  3326.  @MerePasser-by-7482  You're not really saying anything. Nothing worth hearing, at any rate.
    2
  3327.  @Andrew-rc3vh  Do bear in mind that Truss also appointed these people. So if she IS good at getting rid of the wronguns, she's also good at picking and appointing them to high positions of responsibility in government.

  3328. Nice bit of old school sexism, great to see someone reviving a classic.
    2
  3329.  @eustacemcgoodboy9702  Yep, I'm a single bloke with no kids. And? Does that mean I'm unable to recognise and call out your sexist nonsense? That's rhetorical, by the way. You don't need to answer it, since it's self-evident.
    2
  3330.  @rjkmusicmedia  You're talking about the party that's used gerrymandering consistently to tilt elections in their favour. They know about flaws in the process, they've been exploiting them for years.

As for greatest woman, hardly. Far more women throughout history have done far more. If you think she's up there with Winston Churchill as one of the greatest people of the last 100 years, that's just showing your incredible ignorance. Ever heard of Raoul Wallenberg? He blows both of them out of the water. As for republicans being staunch monarchists under current events, that's demonstrably not true, as evidenced by all the people speaking out against the monarchy.

  3354. ​ @bereal6590 You sound very small minded and uninformed. It wasn't a "silly comedic tweet". She used Twitter to share a political satire video, a way that a lot of people engage and relate with politics. No evidence has been presented showing that any of her conduct was anti-semitic. Jon Stewart, the man who made the video she shared who had Jewish heritage, has defended her.

    2
  3357.  @jdshgaming3416  What you don't understand is your entire argument is based on the semantics of the word "money". It doesn't matter what word you use to define it or what you consider your hypothetical made-up currency to be. If you're getting more masonry back in return for the clothes you make people, you're making a profit. That's capitalism. No "money" is involved. Except now you have more resource to trade for other things. And the person you made a profit off has less. Since no-one would willingly just fork over more bricks and mortar for the same amount of cardigans and scarfs, one has to then consider what means an individual might use to get this profit... you really should read up on the Sackler family. It's also a completely irrelevant point to try and make. Humanity en masse moved away from simple bartering in favour of a more consistent currency, "money". Tokens that meant everyone could trade efficiently across wide areas. Trying to liken what we have now to barter is silly because that's basically the starting point of all notions of trade.

  3366.  @URBeingLiedTo  It is economically beneficial. Better support means more children thriving, doing well in education, growing up to be productive members of society. The point of a society is that we all work together, all chip in and support each other to create a stronger whole where we ALL live comfortably. If you're against that, go and live in the woods on your own.

  3420. ​ @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
  3421.  @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?

  3477. Which they did by fighting on Armstice day... by the way, that's what it's called in the UK. Not Veteran's Day, that's in the US. Now, "armstice" means a cessation of hostilities. The day commemorates when the fighting in WWI finally ended and young men on all sides finally stopped dying in some of the most hellish circumstances in human history. So how did these "counter demonstraters" show respect by turning up and fighting? If they'd turned up peacefully and calmly, wishing to pay their respects, they could have done so. Instead, they were looking for a scrap. It's not even reasonable to call them counter-protestors or anything of the like since they were nowhere near the peace march.

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.

  3524.  @twinks2.  It's no good saying "live within your means" when government mismanagement of the economy has seen inflation skyrocket. They used to get a living wage, then their bosses mucked that up and now are refusing to make up the difference. So there's that argument dead in the water. Anecdotal evidence is, well, it's not. So there goes that one. And no, no-one is forcing them to stay in the job. What do you think happens if they all take your advice and leave? We don't have a healthcare service any more. Which means people can't get treatment, which means otherwise minor conditions escalate into more serious ones and that leaves other people unable to work, so it has a HUGE knock-on effect on our entire society if we don't have proper healthcare. So there's that dumb statement put to bed. Anything else to add?
    2
  3525.  @twinks2.  Which is the fault of the government and a core part of why these strikes are happening. That's why we need to resolve this for the staff, because you only have to look at the US to see where privatisation leads.

  3527.  @twinks2.  Nah, you're blaming the wrong person. Government takes the biggest slice and gives it to their corporate chums, then blame it on "the other", the outsider. They are useless, and corrupt, which is why we strike now to force their hand and we must vote them out at the next election.

What would it look like if our government stopped with the delaying tactics and actually processed these migrants or made sensible arrangements with our European neighbours instead of madcap schemes with Rwanda?

  3545. Sunak's speech was rubbish. It was vague, shallow and he sounded so insincere. We're being told its about worker's wages and that we can't just print more money because that devalues it, causes more inflation. We have to treat this made-up thing as a finite resource. Except the vast majority of this resource is locked up in the accounts of just a few people. Its a game to them. They don't just want to have nice things; a big house, a fancy car. They want to have as much wealth as possible. It gets worse. The game's been rigged. Because of interest, investments, growth and all that rot, their wealth grows just by existing. Based on speculations about increased percieved value. Really think about that. Our money is worth less so that their's can be worth more. That's not treating money like a finite resource. That's treating it like something malleable that can be reworked on the fly to suit your needs. We're being robbed in broad daylight. We need to get rid of billionaires and seriously rethink our whole economic system.

Yes, the value of the ruble has gone up as a result of specific actions taken by Russia. However, it's grossly unstable and could result in economic crisis for Russia if it can't re-establish trade relations with the world at large. As for kicking Ukraine's arse, that's demonstrably untrue. What Putin must have hoped would be a quick military action is turning into a protracted war. And the last two decades have shown us how that plays out. Telling me I'm not much of a thinker and that I'm 0 for 1... dude, you can't even count, let alone understand the points you yourself are trying to make. Because you're 0 for 2.

  3635. Good stuff, please try and encourage friends and family to also stop using Amazon. 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.

Second, and most importantly, it fosters fame/notoriety amongst others who feel violently transphobic. Fundamentally, it's the same reason authorities are strongly advised against releasing personal details of killers in mass shootings.

  3657.  @privatechannel8462  The word you're looking for is "likewise". Though it still amounts to nothing more than "no, u". If that's your level, your views on comedy are more understandable. Maybe next time we can ask them to do "the wheels on the bus".
    2
  3658.  @privatechannel8462  So because you don't find them funny, that means they're not? Whoever told you that every opinion is valid lied to you. Steve Coogan's never made me laugh either. Difference between you and me, in that regard, is I'm not so daft or arrogant to dismiss the man's decades-long comedy career on my personal taste alone.

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?

  3682.  @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.

    2
  3687. Yup, Green party.
    2
  3688. Based on what I've seen, police only got involved when the St George lot tried moving on Westminster, which is the same thing the police would have done regardless of who it was. So NOTHING like either of the examples you gave.
    2
  3689.  @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.

  3694.  @MFnDahk  No, he used their supposed servile mentality to insult him. To think otherwise, you'd need to be dim or dishonest. Which are you? It's okay to be both.

  3707.  @chrisj9700  No, you won't be. Funnily enough, when you subtract one figure from another you aren't left with the same figure.
    2
  3708.  @chrisj9700  Is it £1tn or £1.7tn? And no, if you take our current cost of welfare and subtract that from your projected cost of UBI, the figure is gonna go down. And that's how much additional funding would be needed. So why don't you decide how much you want your projected cost to be first and start from there.

  3714. To be fair, a lot of people hate Farage.

  3715. The first world war was an industrial genital measuring contest where young men were lied to and their lives thrown away for nothing. The second world war was fought because tyrants used social scapegoats to offer a simple solution to complicated problems. Something worth remembering.

  3725. You're not making sense.
    2
  3726. Respect him? No, that's not the case at all... as for Putin, he's just waiting till he's got a lackey in the White House and Trump certainly fits that bill.
    2
  3727. You don't get out much, then.
    2
  3728. ​ @Explicitly-CJ In this hypothetical, you haven't lost a thing. That £40k was never yours.

  3729. Yeah. Trump would have done nothing.
    2
  3730. ​ @JoeyBribes-me2xr Living trees don't burn all that well. The fire still damages and even destroys them, by boiling their insides, but the moisture they contain makes it less likely that they'll go up like a candle. Concrete on the other, while not actually flammable, is susceptible to extreme heat and loses pretty much all structural strength. Now, if a builder reads this and knows better, please correct me. But I think the threshold upper limit is around 90F. Raging fires like this can reach temperatures around 1,472F. So... yeah. That's gonna be a large part of why.
    2
  3731. Nothing new there.
    2
  3732. ​ @haleytownsend7544 But that's irrelevant, since the Palestine issue isn't about London, the London mayor or the London ULEZ.

  3734. You'll fall with them too.

  3740. ​ @bobbun4369  Ooo, touched a nerve there did I? Does it make you uncomfortable when someone points out that you've been siding with Nazis? Makes it harder to pretend you don't have a copy of the Turner Diaries on your bedside table, I'll bet. It's a shame that you can't read the ending anymore, what with the pages all being crusted together but I guess it just gets you THAT excited...

  3743.  @richardgallagher4880  I don't own a TV. Stop deflecting and just answer the question.
    2
  3744.  @richardgallagher4880  And that has nothing to do with Brexit.
    2
  3745.  @richardgallagher4880  You told us Putin would invade if we voted remain, did you?
    2
  3746.  @Stancehall  A meme is not a social cue, where did you get that idea from?
    2
  3747. Yeah but you try and pretend all Palestinian civilians are Hamas members, regardless of whether they're a grown man or a newborn baby. So how are you any better? Or is it just Muslims you hate?
    2
  3748. ​ @user-nx6ji9tk8i  It's just an AI bot.

  3750. This tired "people don't want to work" narrative has never had any legs. But to use it when he's out there firing people or trying to change the scope of the job they already had to something unsustainable is really scraping the barrel.
    2
  3751.  @johnnybrave7443  No, it doesn't. And IQ is really only about taking certain types of tests.
    2
  3752.  @johnnybrave7443  According to who? You can easily read up on all the issues with IQ tests yourself. But that wouldn't support your weird little beliefs, would it?
    2
  3753.  @johnnybrave7443  No, they're not. They're studied conclusions reached by academics.

    2
  3761. That's gonna be an awkward definition for a lot of people throwing the word around like a slur.
    2
  3762.  @ProfessorChocolateCake  And no, saying "parents are not their kid's owners" is not a dogwhistle for groomers. You've been listening to too much Matt Walsh, a man concerned with marrying teens to older men. Which seems a bit odd, doesn't it?
    2
  3763.  @jackcogi9586  Doesn't make much sense to take hormone blockers after puberty has started, does it?
    2
  3764. Was that why he was banned? I thought it was down to inciting violence.
    2
  3765.  @emm_arr  Yeah, but you're basically the same, just coming in from the other side.
    2
  3766.  @emm_arr  Do you know what "other side" means?
    2
  3767.  @emm_arr  No, that's you trying to colour the term with your own projection and creating a straw man. What does it literally mean.
    2
  3768. Really? I comment here a lot and never went to uni. Maybe your "radar" for these things isn't reliable.
    2
  3769. ​ @kanedNunable Yeah but playing the game as it is just sets the board up for another round. We need to play a new game.
    2
  3770.  @josephlinden1630  Do you know what "dictator" means? I don't think you do. But hey, you seem happy to lie for Putin so why am I expecting any kind of integrity from you...
    2
  3771.  @terry9819  Climate change isn't a culture war issue.
    2
  3772. And what is it about sexual predators that you find defensible?
    2
  3773. I find it to be a pretty centrist platform so, while it's disappointing, I'm not surprised.
    2
  3774. She had bruises on her hands because she was a 96 year old person who'd probably had some kind of iv feed in place. Why did you think she was sporting a bruise, 'cos she'd been down the mines just before meeting Truss?
    2
  3775. Based on what?
    2
  3776.  @sean65xjrurwin61  The point is you have no facts to support your claim.

  3778.  @holdmusic_  What am I "parroting" and where did I mention anything about Labour?
    2
  3779.  @Hsaelt  Oh, did you not know? Words actually DO have meaning. And luckily for you, there's a book that explains all of them.
    2
  3780.  @Hsaelt  Is that why you made two back-to-back comments trying to get a rise?
    2
  3781. Three degrees of what, relation to her siblings?
    2
  3782. And you do?
    2
  3783.  @pollytickle8346  Is that the best you can do?
    2
  3784. Thats not exactly true though, is it? What you want is not to have any involvement or responsibility for wars you didn't start which is a notable difference from not wanting wars full-stop.
    2
  3785. You could've just said "I don't understand".
    2
  3786.  @ivermec-tin666  Oh buddy... you couldn't even get that one right.

  3787.  @ivermec-tin666  Yeah, you're the "gunt" expert.

    2
  3789.  @fredgarvinMP  People who have studied it. Robert Evans has done some great breakdowns and explanations on the matter.
    2
  3790.  @GodsOwnPrototype  Oh, okay. It's much simpler than I thought; you're talking rubbish.
    2
  3791.  @test-bu8sw  You don't see how you're electing yourself to speak on behalf of others based on self imposed parameters by dismissing the notion of a trans of lgbqt community?
    2
  3792.  @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
  3793.  @JustAThought01  Weird how you list destruction of property BEFORE loss of life... Humans raise good humans and bad humans. Generally, more intelligent humans turn out good. Why will AI choose to be bad?
    2
  3794.  @mickeydecurious  You'll find that Bob's tactic is akin to that of a 5yo child. Whatever you say, no matter how good your explanation is, he'll just respond with "why?" or "how?". He'll rarely, if ever, offer anything of his own thoughts and, on those rare occasions, you'll still be disappointed if you were expecting something good.
    2
  3795.  @equalitypeace1695  With the consequences being what? How would it be enforced?
    2
  3796.  @equalitypeace1695  Okay. Walk through this with me. A doctor trains in the UK. They don't like the hours or the pay. They decide to quit their job here and emigrate to a country with better pay. And your solution is to fire them? Can you see the glaring hole in your plan?
    2
  3797.  @equalitypeace1695  Moving past the very obvious flaw in your plan for a moment, do you understand that these strikes are happening because they've had consistent pay cuts? They signed a contract saying how much the pay was, how much the hours were... then the hours went up and the pay went down. I just want to be sure you understand why this is happening, before going back to how dumb your solution is.
    2
  3798.  @equalitypeace1695  The alternative is, like you say, going back to work and letting the government dictate the terms of any negation. Which is to say, no negotiations. Basically, you're telling them to sit down, shut up and accept it. Because that suits you. You wanna talk about dumb, selfish ideas? You wanna ensure that actually the majority of our trained medical workers DO in fact leave the UK for somewhere they can have better quality of life? 'Cos that'll do it. And then what? But no, let's fire every doctor who decides to quit. That'll work!
    2
  3799.  @cujimmi  My "point" is dismantling yours.
    2
  3800. What do you think the deeper issue is then?
    2
  3801. Dishonest equivalence.
    2
  3802. Look, over there! A squirrel!
    2
  3803. Still doesn't justify Russia's actions. You may also want to look further into what happened in Ukraine in 2014. See, its all a result of Russia hiring Paul Manafort to help them rig Ukraine's elections. I know that doesn't fit your neat little narrative but hey, that's reality.
    2
  3804. Gideon Greif later recanted and accepted the figure of 8,000 though he still denied the classification of genocide based on the gender of the victims. Get your facts right.
    2
  3805. ​ @johnnyboy6707  Seems more tied to how fascistic people get than how religious they aren't. Look at 8chan.
    2
  3806. ​ @ROCK-PETER You're just wittering rubbish now.
    2
  3807. 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.
    2
  3808. ​ @jordancostello3385  So he gets to die slowly in a bunker. That's better.
    2
  3809.  @bruhbruh2290  Why do you think so? Again, look to the US and how many people are unable to afford health insurance.
    2
  3810.  @bruhbruh2290  And why do you think they don't have insurance?
    2
  3811.  @bruhbruh2290  That's not actually true. Cost of childbirth WITH insurance seems to be around £3,000. Can you find any evidence to counter this? You're also still failing to address the 30million or so people in the US who can't afford insurance, basically making being poor more expensive.
    2
  3812. Nope. Investigation is ongoing, these things take time.
    2
  3813.  @anthonyfaucy2761  Except in this case the innocent man would also be dead. There'll be no death penalty anymore. It doesn't work.
    2
  3814. So you're gonna memorise the names and then be suspicious of anyone who shares that name from roughly the same generation?
    2
  3815. To be fair, Reform was never gonna be hardline enough for the sort of folk who admire Robinson.
    2
  3816. ​ @andybrice2711 My counter-argument is this; you have no actual argument. No clear point about the negatives of returning artefacts to their points of cultural origin, except maybe ISIS might destroy them. Which obviously isn't gonna apply in this case.
    2
  3817. ​ @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.
    2
  3818.  @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
  3819. ​ @chrisj9700 Translation; "Anyway, I can see you actually are informed on the topic and have come equipped with facts, while I'm running out of other people's half-baked ideas to regurgitate. So I'm gonna run away now but pretend that's not what I'm doing." That's you.
    2
  3820. ​ @a_kazakis Oh look. Another terrible take from you.
    2
  3821.  @a_kazakis  Again, you're simply wrong.
    2
  3822.  @a_kazakis  Easy, you're here in bad faith.
    2
  3823.  @nigeh5326  We don't have to replace it with anything. I think idolising humans like that is bad for the psyche. But if people really wanted something, what's wrong with a more symbolic statue celebrating some of our more positive contributions to the world?
    2
  3824. Context is everything. The government commissioned a report from the International Energy Agency about this move, clearly seeking their endorsement to help sell us on it. When the IEA's report condemned the plan, the government sat on it instead. Sunak is being reckless and selling us down the river. He doesn’t care about the damage he'll cause us. Why not? Because he's insulated from us. Too used to protest being some feeble, easily ignored affair. He needed a friendly reminder.
    2
  3825.  @pml5164  I'm also curious as to whether you know the reason for Ukraine's "coup".
    2
  3826. Guarantee she makes more than that through government lobbying.
    2
  3827.  @oatnoid  Please, go on. As many reasons as you can put down.
    2
  3828. @renideo You misunderstood. Ivar's response was pointing out that he's not making a specific case for abolishing the monarchy. He's pointing out how skewed the priorities of the British public are.
    2
  3829.  @rgcol  You're completely missing the point. The only "achievements" people can point to for Johnson, Sunak etc. is that they did literally the bare minimum for someone in their position.
    2
  3830.  @rgcol  Yep, I'm sure I would too. Not difficult to do better than the shambles we've got.
    2
  3831. So if you see someone in need, you won't help them because you don't owe them?

  3837. Go read up on how legionella propogates. Then you'll understand why it wasn't present years back when it was housing workers.
    2
  3838. There's no "luck with women". That's a daft attitude that suggests you're trying to shift the blame elsewhere. Then your second paragraph makes it painfully clear exactly why...
    2
  3839. 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.
    2
  3840. Wealth doesn't equal intelligence.
    2
  3841.  Mr. M  Right, because that's the only way people socialise. Because life is a teen movie from the early 2000s...

    2
  3847.  @mogznwaz  It's true that many traits traditionally characterised as being male or female are in fact expressions of personality. For example, the idea that men are inherently competitive. Different cultures have had different gender stereotypes throughout history based on a range of circumstances. There's not one reason, there's many. Your last point, about compliance, is pretty off though. It implies a conscious choice to be one way or the other. In reality, the only choice is whether to be honest and open about who you are or whether to repress yourself.

  4024. But conservatives don't favour free speech. Just their own speech. Don't act like they're above censorship either.
    2
  4025.  @superscaryrussianbot846  Your initial question is dishonest. When social media platforms, private companies, have restricted access to certain individuals it's not because of their politician affiliation. If that was true, there wouldn't be literal Nazi groups operating on Twitter. What gets people shut down... again, by a private company who can decide what they do and don't want on their platform, without contravening freedom of speech at all... when people get shut down its because of the content of what they're saying. So the entire way you're framing this is dishonest. Whereas on the plain censorship front? Trying to decide what should and shouldn't be allowed when it comes to musical lyrics, sexual content in film or TV, even what it's acceptable to teach children... that's an area that conservatives know quite a bit about.

It will take time to undo the damage of the last 14 years, longer than a single government term. Even if Starmer did have the best will in the world, which I strongly doubt. Some of our problems are because of global economic situations, even harder to affect and fix. And it's very likely that whoever gets in is going to have to raise taxes before getting anything done. That'll go down great and people have short political memories...

  4048.  @XAVR_  I agree totally. And our problems are no different than those affecting the majority of the country. For what it's worth, my perspective is limited, I don't hear much support for the likes of Reform from other working class Brits around here. That's not to say there's an air of solidarity around these issues, more the opposite, but apathy seems to have a stronger hold on people here than xenophobia.

So as much as I don't think he's the alternative we need, Starmer's looking like he's gonna get more than 15 minutes as PM.

While trans people are relatively uncommon, they are to be expected. It is typical that some people will be trans. The fact that trans people have been around as long as there have been people shows its not at all unusual. In this respect, trans people are perfectly normal.

  4117. Saying that Jon should have made an effort to be clearer and firmer, to the Night's Watch, about why he was making these decisions would make him a better leader is a fairly solid point. It's a good leadership tip. Your point is "NO, NOTHING WOULD HAVE CHANGED BECAUSE PEOPLE ARE STUPID" and you insult and demean anyone disagreeing with you... well, you're certainly making yourself an example for your own lesson. I suppose if men of the Night's Watch share those traits with yourself then it likely wouldn't have changed anything. But this guy isn't stating "it would have been different if Jon had done X". He's saying that by not trying he is showing bad leadership skills. And I don't see how that can be argued against. It's elementary. Oh and would you look at that. The person with objectively bad leadership skills ended up being the victim of a mutiny that almost jeopardised everything. Who knew?

  4118. veteran0121 When you're leading people it's not enough to say things once. A point must be repeated, to quell doubts and silence dissenters. You ask how he came to power? On a rousing speech. He convinced them to go to Hardhome with a rousing speech. When they got back from Hardhome... nothing. When talking to Ollie... an overused metaphor. This is the point the video is making. It's very clear and I'm sorry it's not getting through.

  4126. Jexorz86 Whether it makes sense to someone isn't what matters, that just contributes to whether it's a well written plot (it's not). As much as I dislike Abrams' work I must respect his own decisions when it comes to his writing, although much of that film makes no sense I can't rewrite his canon origin for Clover because it's not my creation.
    1
  4127. Jexorz86 No guess. JJ Abrams himself has stated, as others here have already said, that Clover was a terrestrial creature hibernating deep in the sea. Just because it came from the ocean does not make it a sea creature, it's true. What does make it so is the writer stating it to be canon. Which he did. Lynxcat1 No, it's not a meteorite. It's a satellite which supposedly woke and angered Clover. THAT is what Abrams said. I don't know where you heard that he said it was an alien but it's not. Go look it up, I promise you that's the case.
    1
  4128. Yavor Kapitanov JJ Abrams, who wrote the story, has confirmed that Clover IS of Earth. It did not come here from another planet, no more than we did.

  4129. Yavor Kapitanov Keep your bollocks out of your mouth, chap. Whether human life originated on Earth or came here via a comet or whatever has NOT been the crux of this argument whatsoever and certainly not the point that I've been arguing. Don't try and give me some pithy insult about understanding when you can't even comprehend what's been said by who. Do you want me to walk you through the various angles in this discussion so you can actually keep up or would you rather make rash statements so you can look like an even bigger fool?

  4130. Jexorz86 I made that comparison because of the well known hypothesis... Thought that would be clear.  I'm also missing the bit where I've apparently insulted you. I insulted the other guy, who was also being insulting. I was just condescending to you. Partly 'cos you stated the obvious but also 'cos you consistently missed my point earlier. I suppose being condescending is basically insulting. But then again you resorted to comment that was a confused blend of sexism and nonsense. I mean, "insults like a preteen girl"? Really?

  4133. Víctor Barraza But is it fair to lump anyone who doesn't care for censorship of language into an "anti-PC movement"? I check my language primarily for myself, not for others. So I have limited truck with the concept of PC language. At the same time I'm not "anti" anything. I'm not going out of my way to oppose how other people want to do it. There are some vehment arseholes out there, I agree. But I think most people aren't "anti". They just don't want to be told what they can say or what they mean by someone else. Which... seems quite fair.
    1
  4134. Víctor Barraza Did you see any of the debates around the UK's European Union referendum? So much soft-stepping around using the term "immigrant" that nothing actually got talked about. Which is worse than worrying about the exactitude of the word used.
    1
  4135. Víctor Barraza No... how did you get that from my comment? Sorry but it seems like a willful misunderstanding. I'm saying that in some quarters there are people more interested in quibbling terms than seeking actual solutions. It's got nothing to do with people actually being hostile towards immigration, that comes from somewhere else. I'm saying that the idea of political correctness feels like it's been carried past the point of simply being considerate and respectful of others. It's become anally retentive.

  4136. d0nj03 It's certainly easier to just insult someone than try and understand the case they're making but it doesn't exactly help anyone, does it?
    1
  4137. d0nj03 Right. Doesn't take a genius to know that calling someone a "fucktard" is insulting. But there are terms that people debate. Spastic used to be an official term before it became an abusive term. People decided it was offensive. The issue IS muddy, that's the point.
    1
  4138. Víctor Barraza Clearly, otherwise we wouldn't be debating the matter. It's something that drives people apart and fuels hostility. I'd say that's a big problem at this rather critical juncture in our species' future.
    1
  4139. Víctor Barraza That's a fair argument and not without merit. I think it's come from a variety of factors though, not just one, and I think a key factor in why PC has been pushed, certainly in my lifetime, is that it makes a very useful political weapon. Particularly because it doesn't look or seem like it should be a weapon at all. It's my belief that the most fundamental struggle between humans is one of class. That is, there is a ruling class and then there is everyone else. The ruling class use and encourage divisive mentalities. If we are hating each other because of birthplace, sexuality, even just purely ideological reasons... then we are distracted and occupied. And PC has resulted in this incredible ability to dissuade discussion on these social matters. Accusations of sexism, racism, bigotry on any level, can be absolutely fatal to people's careers, their public standing and credibility whether they're borne out or not. As a result so many people are hesitant to voice their thoughts on the matter in fear of the repercussions. There's no movement, no discussion. This is particularly harmful in situations where the accusations had some merit to them because those are the situations that desperately need to be examined and discussed. You nailed it yourself. "Limitations". I feel that PC has gone too far, it's reached a point where it limits us from actually dealing with the underlying causes. There's another problem with the same limitations but in a different context. Whether we like it or not (personally I don't) I've learned the hard way that people aren't happy being told how to conduct themselves. They HAVE to come to it of their own volition. That doesn't mean you should just leave them to it, prod and encourage by all means. But using limitations to force compliance... that will be perceived as metaphorical chains and will only harden any cynical, regressive ideas that person might harbour.

  4140. inexplicable01 This comment thread serves as a suitable example. This is the extent to which we can discuss these matters. Or when Affleck tried to shut down discussion with Sam Harris using accusations of "racism" when Harris was talking about religion. Or Dawkins being disallowed from attending an atheism conference because he re-tweeted some dumb SyeTenAtheist video (a similar thing almost happened to Bill Maher after the previous example went down on his show but the petition failed). Milo Yiannopolous had a speech at Rutgers university disrupted by protesters who didn't approve of his anti-feminism stance. And there was all that shit recently with Shapiro in LA. Repressing discussion, for any reason, represses progress on the matters.

  4152. Rudy C What summation? I made one point, that Islam is not an inherently violent religion. And you're going on about Nazis and making vague statements about, well, nothing really.

  4161. If it's true that behaviour can be bred into a creature and used to make them predisposed to violence, then the opposite must also be true. Generations of pitties shown nothing but love and stability will have an effect on future generation's disposition. Even we humans used to be far more prone to violence, but now younger generations in many progressive societies favour peace and civility. And here we have an excellent example of a couple who have cared for 30+ pitties, who've had the dogs around their infant, all without incident. You can point to cases where pitties have attacked and even killed, sure, but do the maths.

  4162. There was nothing scary about the aliens in Signs. How were they in any way threatening? They have no edge over us, especially on our home turf given that they're lethally allergic to a substance that is integral to nearly everything on this planet. If that film had gone on for another five minutes it would have had the same ending as War of the Worlds.

  4163. You haven't understood what Brian is saying then. AI can do certain codes better than humans. That will continue and improve till they can do all codes better than humans. At that point, why is a human needed to write the code that writes the code? Answer; they aren't needed ANYMORE, because they've already done it.

  4175.  @CriticalCommentatorDrama  Yes, thank you, I've seen the video and heard his explanation. Doesn't change anything.
    1
  4176.  @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
  4177.  @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?

    1
  4197.  @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.

  4213. Having recently learned a fair bit about the Bhopal disaster in India, a result of corporate greed and negligence, its hard to look at this event as anything other. Blaming "wokeism" for companies cutting costs by removing safety features, mandatory training and cutting staff numbers is a hell of a reach. And Charlie Kirk clearly doesn't know about Bhopal, doesn't know how little skin colour actually matters when money is at stake. Doesn't know what "prove" means either... I guess we'll add it to the long, long list of things Charlie doesn't know.

It even passed a war memorial by Hyde Park that had wreaths arrayed, it was left entirely alone. Because it was a peace march. Meanwhile, the mob that supposedly turned up to "defend" and counter protest didn't go near the peace march and a chunk of them picked fights with the police. Fighting on Armstice Day, THAT is what's disgraceful. That's what dishonours the memory of the fallen.

  4267. Those of you blinkered enough to think that the super rich are just hard working folk who deserve to live with excessive wealth, you're being naive. Billionaires don't make their money through hard work and thrifty living. They do it by exploiting the workers whose labour actually generates that wealth in the first place. Saying that those on low wages are a net loss to the system is absolute nonsense. They're the bottom line. Without them, you have nothing. Capitalist societies are dependent on people buying stuff. If the majority of people in a society can't afford to buy even the basics, let alone luxury items, then the whole system falls apart. Meanwhile, the billionaires continue to hoard their wealth, being of no use to the society. We don't need them.

  4399. I cuffed my nephew round the ear once 'cos he was taunting his gran about her own dead mother. It was more of a reflex action than a considered one but it did the trick. I needed to communicate to him just how grievously he had hurt his gran with his comment and how badly he'd fucked up. A few years later I was monitoring him while he played football with some other kids in the park. He's not a very good player and an even worse loser so he started resorting to just shoving and hitting other kids when they came in to tackle the ball from him. I had told him multiple times to stop doing it but he persisted. Eventually I got fed up with him ignoring me and I went over and shoved him hard to the ground. Instant waterworks. But, after he'd dried his eyes, I got him to acknowledge that he'd been doing the same thing to the other lads and that it really wasn't very nice. He stopped doing it after that. He's still a sore loser but he doesn't hit anyone because of it. I stand by my actions 100%. In both cases words were not sufficient to communicate his mistake to him. He simply didn't understand what was being explained to him. But he understood "ow" and it made him stop, made him think. In hindsight, now, he can look back on those instances and understand what he did wrong and why it happened the way it did. No long-term harm.

  4400. The left-right spectrum is a clumsy one, essentialist political theory is flawed. But ultimately, I'd say it comes down to his support of far-right political parties. I'd also argue your claims. Musk isn't pro-enviroment, as he doesn't invest his time and wealth in developing alternative or renewable energy sources. Instead, he makes electric cars charged with power from fossil fuel, launches rockets and litters our stratosphere with dangerous and harmful debris. He's not really pro-immigration as much as he is pro-cheap labour that can't unionise, as shown by his comments regarding immigration in the UK. As far as being "progressive in life style", that attitude really seems to start and end with him. He's shown opposition to other people, particularly trans people, having that same stance. So yeah, all you've really got is him being pro-drugs... kinda? Which really isn't one side or the other.

Because they're at each odds with themselves. One can't be impartial and accurate, in the terms set out by your principles. In many, many cases there are two sides. But only one is the truth.

  4435.  @gazsm1  Yes, I did. But I also said "they can make the choice at 16" first. A trans person can make the choice at 16 to self-identify, in preparation for undergoing surgery at 18. Anyone can make the choice at 16 to join the army, in preparation for getting blown to pieces at 18. This isn't hard to understand. Yes, there are checks. Yes, there is a need for parental consent. Doesn't stop the army turning up at school when you're still 15 or younger and promoting the idea of joining. Almost like grooming, an accusation often thrown at trans people, especially when you consider how it's supported by pro-military propaganda in the form of films and video games. It's normalised. I'm personally in favour of checks and balances for young trans people in order to ensure they are making the best choice for themselves. But it's hard to do that when so many people's perspective on trans people is borne of ignorance and hatred. Hence why many trans people support legislation like this.

Oh, and while the monarchy may be relatively low down the list of causes for our current economic woes, to say they simply aren't correlated with inequality is just barmy. The whole point of the monarchy, from a monarchist's PoV, is that these people are from a bloodline that is inherently superior and fit to rule over others. I don't think you'd know intellectual honesty if it slapped you in the face.

  4612. @Matt Joseph As I understand it, that's not accurate. The very first "incel" was in fact a woman. You can get a good summary just on the Wiki page but basically it started as a very, very different thing than what it's become. It was originally people of all genders sharing their experiences with loneliness and a lack of romantic or sexual activity. The idea was that by sharing and exploring the topic, they would help each other and in the case of many of them, that's what happened. Problem with help groups like that which don't have oversight is that, as time passes, the only people left in the group are the angry bitter ones who were unwilling to turn their lives around. Modern incels.
    1
  4613. @Matt Joseph There is no game. Hang on, did you basically just say facts no longer apply? 'Cos you made a statement, I provided a fact that disproves the statement and gives context to incels past and present, and you're saying it doesn't apply?
    1
  4614. @Matt Joseph You're denying objective reality now. The very first "incel" was a lady called Alana who started up a website for lonely and involuntarily celibate people while she in college. She used it to write about her experiences and connect with other people. Eventually, the majority of these "first wave incels" were able to work on themselves and make connections with people. Alana now deplores what "incel" has become. That is a fact. And it disproves your statement that the female incel is a myth. And once again, there is no "game". That exists only in your mind, but might explain quite a bit as to why people find you off-putting. I'm just another male talking to you via text on the internet and even I'm feeling the impulse to make a lame excuse to leave, when you starting going on about this creepy nonsense.

Switch the filter, you'll see all of your ridiculous comments, so you can drop the victimhood complex. The timing of these cases proves what? These prosecutions began ages ago and might have been resolved if Trump didn't keep stalling or crying about deserving immunity. I wonder why he did that? Trump wanted to go after Clinton but didn't have the authority to order such an action via the DoJ. Which helps explain why Trump focused so much instead on growing his "swamp", because he wants to go after his political opponents and media critics. He's explicitly expressed that desire. But we must simply be misinterpreting him, right?

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.

  4690.  @lewis18051  Something to watch out for in the comments on these videos are negativity vampires, people who just want to try and give a positive story and horrible ending, to make people feel bad. So they'll say that the family abandoned the animal or mistreated them, they'll say the animal died etc. (that last one is a bit tricky, as sadly many of the animals featured in older Dodo videos have passed on, but you can generally tell the difference between someone relaying sad news and someone just trying to upset people).

  4872. ​ @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
  4873.  @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
  4874. ​ @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
  4875.  @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.

As for being able to finish a sentence and not making the country a laughing stock, I'm not sure you remember Trump's press conferences or how the rest of the world received them. Which is fair, on account of how he stopped giving press conferences. Because he couldn't finish a sentence and a whole lotta people couldn't help but laugh at him.

Which means you don't know anything about me, whereas I know at least two things about you. One of which is that you're full of shit.

    1
  4912.  @53Klawrence  I read your response, it did not contain an answer to my question. I have a new question, why do so many right-wingers freak out when asked a question, go off on a tangent, then get angry and pretend that they already answered all questions, before finishing by pitching some weird insult that doesn't really land?
    1
  4913.  @53Klawrence   I didn't say "far-right", I just said right-wing. Which you blatantly are, given who you're supporting. Now, going back through I see you did have a little question tucked away that I missed, because you don't understand what the "edit" function is for. So I'll answer that. What did you say that wasn't true... practically all of it. The US has never been energy independent due to a reliance on foreign oil. There was a decline, a pattern consistent since 2000, in migration from Mexico but it didn't stop entirely so can you really say the border was secure when a few hundred thousand still made it over? You WERE at war in the Middle East, drone strikes actually increased under Trump. And North Korea tested two weapons in 2016 and one in 2017. Gas prices aren't determined by the president either, so that's 1out of 6. And then to claim you want to "unify" and have productive conversation, yet you started with claiming "FAKE NEWS" and calling Pakman a dirtbag. So there's another lie.
    1

  4938.  @lzl3lol  If they're off-duty, they aren't there as cops. They're civilians. It's important for us to see cops, uniformed cops, as people and members of our society. Not as the militant enforcers of figures like Braverman. And you'll forgive me if I don't trust your anecdotal "fact" but it's funny to me how you insist that "these people" will apparently never have a positive attitude towards the police no matter what, while at the same time complaining about police doing something to improve attitudes towards them. Very hard to take you seriously.

    1
  4949.  @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.

  4985.  @Isclachau  Yes, like the Reagan administration did something about the AIDS crisis. Like the UN did something about the Syrian civil war. When have our glorious leaders ever put the needs of our species before their own interests? There is decades of research that has yielded irrefutable evidence that it is not a hoax and the longer we keep kicking the can down the road or refusing to take it seriously, the less we can do to safeguard ourselves.

As for taking a moral high ground, I've read through the pretty vicious back-and-forths you've had with people here, many of which you started. And you're quick to insult people's intelligence. Ironic.

  5015.  @whyamimrpink78  Just to be clear on something you asserted earlier, having a small administration is an indicator of corrupt government as it's reducing the "keys to power", allowing the ruler to have more absolute power. That's why dictators tens to have small administrations while more social democracies have larger ones.

  5016.  @whyamimrpink78  Demonstrably not true. Watch CGP Grey's video on "Keys to Power".

  5019.  @whyamimrpink78  What are your credentials? You're here trying to speak authoritatively about a matter you're plainly wrong about, why should anyone listen to you? And I just told you, an objective study of political history and theory. Its a 10/15 minute video, stop making excuses for your ignorance and go inform yourself.
    1
  5020.  @whyamimrpink78  It's called understanding how things work, it's why we have education. You're always here playing the contrarian and time after time, the people you're arguing with demonstrate how little you really know of the topic you're arguing about. That your whole purpose seems to be hanging out on a YouTube channel of someone you apparently hate, getting in arguments that you never win, despite how much you might crow about it. So I've suggested something you could go check out, something that does a good job of concisely explaining how any ruler only remains so by the grace of specific important figures within their society. Military, economy, labour force, etc. Which also demonstrates how a dictator consolidates power for themselves by reducing the number of "keys", while more democratic nations reduce the potential for corruption and abuse of power by increasing the number. The "author" of this video has not created this ideology or the language involved. It's a long understood fact of organising and running large societies. Something you really should know about if you're gonna get in arguments about it. So stop trying to come up with excuses for not getting informed.

  5026.  @johnorchard4  So it's just bitterness then. I applaud anyone who's been working to combat this issue. I know how frustrating it is to put in the work and see it washed away by people's indifference to the issue. Apathy is one of our greatest enemies. So it seems odd to see momentum begin to gather and, instead of supporting it and helping it grow so that the issue can be tackled more effectively, you sneer at it. Seems counter-productive to say the least. Would you rather this protest didn't get any media attention?

  5027.  @johnorchard4  No-one paying attention to the news thinks this is the only severely polluted body of water in the country, on account of how its been a big story for quote a while now. It is a complaint and I maintain that its a complaint borne out of bitterness, for the sake of complaining, because your whole justification there is nonsense. But hey, maybe someone will give you the attention you crave if you keep complaining and undermining efforts.

  5034. Many people clearly feel that one flag DOESN'T represent them. If you bothered to study the history of England and the British Empire you might understand why. And which dodgy characters are you referring to? Let's have some names.

  5035.  @unitysprings3631  You don't get to decide for other people. I'm English but I'm not Christian and I condemn the atrocities committed in the name of the Empire. Neither flag represents me and you don't get to say otherwise. In regards to "dodgy characters", I asked for names and you've given none. So I can only conclude you're making it up based on your biases. "Cultural Marxism" is certainly an interesting term. Wonder if you know the origin of that one... can you even define it? And minority rights are human rights same as anyone else. Why do you think being part of a minority means you should have less rights?

  5084.  @kigongobenard1129  All I saw were various articles on the UBC site about positive inclusive efforts and how they've improved life for people at the university. That's not so much promoting homosexuality as it is recognising the existence of homosexuality and accepting people for who they are, rather than fighting it. They're not telling people to be gay (which would be dumb as sexuality isn't even a choice), they're simply letting gay people know they'll be accepted the same as anyone else. Why is that a bad thing? UBC isn't in Uganda, either. So I feel it rather lacks relevance.

  5088.  @karlkidd6295  Actually, I went and checked. AP News did a fact-check on it. They concluded "As speaker of the house, Pelosi does not direct the national guard. Further, as the Capitol came under attack, she and the senate majority leader called for military assistance, including the national guard." There's a lot more, they gathered a lot of supporting evidence and testimonies from people who were there. So I can provide more facts if you like. What have you got?

  5089.  @karlkidd6295  I came back with a fact check. Where are you getting your facts from?

  5090.  @karlkidd6295  And what source are you getting her own words from? A fact check is not an opinion piece in any way. It is simply gathering all the facts, presenting them objectively and letting readers conclude based upon them. It is literally what you keep claiming I should do. So where are you getting your facts from? Some further facts to help you. "The decision on whether to call national guard troops to the Capitol is made by what is known as the Capitol police board, which is made up of the House Sergeant At Arms and the Architect of the Capitol. The board decided not to call the guard ahead of the insurrection but did eventually request assistance after the rioting had already begun, and the troops arrived several hours later."

In one breath, you'll insist it's not about dogfighting, and then in your next breath you're bringing up dogfighting AGAIN. The only reason you care about the "mislabeling" is because it undermines the perceived value you put in your "purebreeds". But no-one here cares about that. They just care about pitties being treated with love and care.

I think it's fair to say we can answer that now. I also think you're exhibiting all the behaviour you're accusing others of, chiefly pseudo-intellectualism.
    1
  5169.  @BowerMediaOne  I just did. I told you what it was. It was to not be a dick. That's what the challenge was. Can you see what I'm getting at when I say that you're exhibiting the same behaviour that you're accusing others of?

  5185.  @knightsnight5929  No, I don't. It means to base a philosophical argument around personal attacks against your opponents character, rather than attacking the substance of their argument. That's the definition. Nothing Jason said actually counters any of the points made by O'Brien. In fact, Jason even lampshades what he's doing when he says that James is a "remoaner" and, for that reason alone, is "unfit to be taken seriously". Pretty textbook ad hominem, to the point where it actually resembles one of the examples from my philosophy textbooks when I was studying it. Don't try to school people on something you clearly ain't up to speed on. Just makes you look like a muppet.

  5194.  @Drenwickification  Their protest WAS blocking the road. So they were arrested for protesting.

  5197.  @Drenwickification  Oh look, deflection.
    1
  5198.  @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
  5199.  @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.

  5201. @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.

  5249. Yes but when you look at WHO is commenting "no", it certainly paints a picture. Especially since the general trend is to claim its "creating division" and that they oppose that. But then you look at comments they've made on other videos, playlists they've compiled or other channels they follow and they're inevitably interested in right-wing figures who foment and profit off of division. So there's a lot of hypocrites and disingenuous creeps in opposition to this, is that what we're saying?

If there's such a risk involved with the horses, why does it only apply in regards to protest?

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.

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.

  5348. It's one of those incredibly dumb comments that's so easy to say and, annoyingly, takes a while to go through and list everything wrong with it. How to summarise... it's a reductive way to misrepresent facts in such a way that they create a narrative whereupon a determined "other" is the root cause of problems. Saying that "Jews control everything" because some people in charge of some companies are also Jewish is a gross way of making... what point, exactly?

  5349.  @senoje  Let me make sure I'm following this. You asked what it was about Kanye's comments that were bad. I explained why what Kanye said was dumb. You got angry and said I was calling you names. Is that right? If you're saying you agree with Kanye then you need to understand that saying "they control everything" isn't really a point, it's a statement. The point is what you're building to. Lots of higher-ups in the entertainment industry are Jewish. That's a statement. But what point are you making by saying that? What greater argument is that statement a part of?

Now, he still has his fans and his income but its clearly more difficult for him to forge business partnerships and conduct some of his activity. It's true there's a fine line between exposing someone for who they are and simply just giving them exposure. But I think your assessment is wrong. And, reading between the lines, I think your whole spiel is just a soft cover for defending scumbags, so...

A lot of RefUK votes were concentrated in the same places. Its not like you can take "excess" votes from one seat and transfer them to others. And it's plain immature to say "well, the other party didn't deserve votes so we should've gotten them instead".

  5397.  @thumbsaloft  Then that's being prejudiced, which would be acting on an emotional bias.

Kids absolutely are straight or gay, now that trans is becoming more accepted then you're gonna find more people speaking up about that. It doesn't mean more kids are being "turned" trans. It just means people who spent their lives hiding things about themselves can be open instead. And the idea that it's a political ideology is bull. It's only made political when other people want to start making laws against trans people. So basically, the very people who complain about it being political are the ones making it so.

Mostly, though, it's his whole "free speech" angle. He claims to champion it, then threatens people with legal action for criticizing him, even bordered on "threatening" violence in response to a bad book review. It's no surprise that he turned out to be so vocally anti-trans, despite stating earlier in his career that he respects them as human beings.

    1
  5474.  @sunamcm1  You don't need to be part of an organised religion to have a connection with God. That was part of Jesus' whole thing. You'll forgive me if I don't put any stock in what a child-rape apologist thinks is ridiculous. Catholicism is one of the worst things to ever happen to the world, particularly the western world. You want to go to Ireland and ask the people there how good Catholicism has been for them? Their crimes don't start and finish with child rape. So you can take your opinions about them "preserving Western civilization" and shove them where the sun don't shine. They've been nothing but a cancer.
    1
  5475.  @sunamcm1  You're defending a pack of lies. Jesus didn't found the Catholic Church. He was dead long before a bunch of power hungry patriarchs strung that monstrosity together. And if "your people" are from Ireland then maybe pay a visit and see what that religion has done for them. You wanna defend the church of its heinous crimes like that, then yeah. You're an apologist. And should not speak of shame.
    1
  5476.  @sunamcm1  Dare? Why not learn about stuff a bit more recent than 2,000yrs ago? Stuff like the religiously motivated persecutions of non-Catholics (backfired later), punishing people who tried to educate the common masses, witch trials, cash for absolution, the entire Spanish Inquisition... then there's the modern age, with the convents in Ireland and their literally countless abuses of human rights and basic decency, declining to denounce the Nazis during WWII and their horrendous treatment of LGBT people.
    1
  5477.  @sunamcm1  Way to deflect. I'm not talking about specifically understanding Jesus, that's not the topic. We're talking about atrocities committed by the Catholic Church. Something you seem keen to avoid acknowledging, unsurprisingly since you're an apologist for child rape. Acknowledging that would cause your tiny world to crumble. Your own knowledge reeks of church indoctrination.

I think that comes down far more to changes in how consumerism and instant one-click convenience drives our lives, the control social media has over our interactions with each other and failing local services leaving so many areas bleak.

  5503. ​ @mond9240 He's just a weird little guy who seems to want to "both sides" the issue, while also arguing with both sides. They've made some very bizarre and just plain wrong comments, as well as copping to the fact that they have no idea what they're talking about. And their account is 4 months old. Don't take them seriously, they're probably just here for attention.

  5504. We welcomed you, didn't we?

  5505. It's important to remember that we shouldn't think of ourselves as "owning" animals. We care for them, we bring them into our family and we have to do right by them. So with that said, I think that Pumpkin should stay with the dad when this lady moves out into her own place. The two dogs don't exactly get on and if Pumpkin seems to look up more to the dad, then that's that.

Its just another way in which the government has shut down routes for asylum seekers, doing nothing to combat the criminal human traffickers, the inefficient asylum claim processing system, the root cause for so much migration in the first place... This bill just appeals to the small minded nationalists who want to plug their ears and pretend the problem has gone away.

    1

  5622. @Rychus_Music  Good for you, keep it to yourself. Your belief in something that cannot be proved does not allow you to make choices about other people's human rights.

  5623. @Rychus_Music  Yeah, that ain't proof. At all.
    1
  5624. @Rychus_Music  Maybe so but that still has nothing to do with you denying people their basic human rights.

  5630.  @Sam-lq2jh  You're really not a thinker, are you?
    1
  5631.  @Sam-lq2jh  If you feel insulted, it's because I've got the measure of you. And what's to debate? You're struggling to grasp basic realities of their situation. They get MOVED ON. As in, not allowed to stay where they are. They cannot go back through countries that have moved them on. So where do you expect them to then go?

  5651. You need to understand the difference between an excuse and a reason. Based on what we know, mental illness is the reason he did this. That doesn't excuse what he did, but it does let us know where we need to start in regards to trying to ensure this doesn't happen again. And despite how strongly you feel, the reasons for getting rid of the death penalty far outweigh any emotional response seeking gratification.
    1
  5652. Because its all so predictable, its laughable. And there's also the irony, Republican figures have worked hard over the years on making voting harder, on using gerrymandering to tilt things things their favour... And plenty of US citizens have seen this. They're sickened by it. And that's affected their vote. All of this, it's chickens coming home to roost.

  5655.  @stephenobrien5909  Ask an Irish meteorologist if tornadoes are common and they'll say, emphatically, "no". The British Isles are right on the very edge of the Atlantic ocean and tornadoes are very uncommon, let alone ones that aren't highly localised and incredibly short lived.
    1
  5656.  @Splozy  They estimate. Because they're so small, short lived and isolated that they're rarely identified. This incident marks a significant shift up.

  5671. I wouldn't say I "love" the prospect... what I want is to reduce, or outright remove, the power of political parties. I want to see MPs who truly represent their communities, not simply their party's interests within the communities. And I want to see a more mature approach to politics, that understands the need for cooperation and compromise. So yeah, I'd love to see real voter reform. But getting the Tories out and having a more balanced coalition would hopefully be a start.

    1
  5681.  @agentobiwan  Half those things AREN'T supported by both parties and restrictions on freedom of expression, pro censorship etc. would be authoritarianism, not socialism. Sounds like you're just parroting phrases you've heard elsewhere.

  5693.  @AgathaR-v5y  Britain ended colonialism... kinda, but not really. And they were one of its biggest proponents for a long time. Britain ended slavery... kinda, but again not really. They did nothing to end the practice in general, still worked and traded with nations using slaves and did nothing to divest those who'd profited massively off slaves. Quite the opposite, they were "bought out" with taxpayer money. Adopting Christianity... so? Are you aware of the atrocities committed, both at home and abroad, by British people in the name of Christianity? As for child labour, same deal as slavery. Sure, we stopped it in Britain. And then just outsourced so much of our labour to places where child labour was intertwined with slavery. That's a really rough breakdown but I hope it demonstrates just how much you're being ignorant of in making these weak, nationalistic claims.

Then you support police arresting people for anything that could be "inciteful and offensive". By whose measure? I'm offended by monarchists and they certainly encourage each other.
    1
  5840.  @originaldissident151  People did protest the monarchy at the time of the queen's death. And, predictably, many pro-monarchy folks told them it "wasn't the time". This seems such a common thread when it comes to protesting against conservative values. We're always told its never the right time. Queen's Jubilee, not the right time. Royal birth, not the right time. Queen's death, not the right time. Charles' coronation, not the right time. Same thing happens in the States, in regards to mass shootings and gun control. Apparently, an event that highlights the exact thing being protested against is NOT the right time to protest. So when is? As for your weak "they were arrested for their safety" argument, it's just pathetic. This group had formally registered their protest with the police, it was to be a peaceful protest. So where do concerns of public safety come in?
    1
  5841.  @originaldissident151  No, you've misunderstood. If the protest was to be peaceful, where was the risk to safety of all the public had turned up? Also a bit worrying how you're starting to suggest that a protestor is different from a member of the public and therefore different from any other citizen...
    1
  5842.  @originaldissident151  Not at all. You try to dissemble with vague waffle about resources, something you have no actual knowledge about so it becomes an empty point. Then you justify their arrests based on what might have happened rather than what they actually did. It's pathetic. You might be right about the police force's experience, though, since we know how much they infiltrated activist groups to incite criminal action. You've not actually established a risk, something the protestors could have done which would have posed serious risk to the public. So take your own advice, grow up, stop being a mouthpiece for disinformation and consider how the propaganda you push harms the country and everyone who lives in it.

  5853.  @bigfisher4354  Your "lesson" on what income tax is bears no relevance to what I said. Your "math" completely fails to take in account the entirety of what I said, you're missing the bit where the reduced public funds hits public services. So even though people will have an extra grand or two in their pocket, they're now having to pay private for services such as healthcare. And your bit about getting a better paying job is the same nonsense it's always been. Hypothetically, if everyone was just able to get a better paying job, then said job wouldn't be better paying anymore, would it? There's that supply and demand people are so fond of...

If we switched to private healthcare we'd be even worse off than we are now, as the exorbitant costs would be too much for the majority and then they'd have no chance of getting ANY healthcare. I'd rather rebuild what we had, but I'll take a struggling NHS over a system that'd immediately price me out any day.

  5932.  @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
  5933.  @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?

  5938.  @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.

  5954. Looking in on the US from the outside, the Dems have never been great either. They just aren't as bad as the Republicans. Yes, that's a terrible reason to vote for someone, but it IS a reason... What I do wish more "conservative" minded people would be aware of, not just here or in the US but around the world, is that if you pride yourself on your sense of national identity... I won't lie, I've never been comfortable with nationalism because of where it so often leads but if you ain't hurting anyone, wave a flag if it makes you happy, I digress... if one has that national pride within themselves, don't vote for the people who pay only the barest lip-service to that pride. And you pretty much sum that up, when during a time of national crisis you have a leadership that acts against the interests of their people. And I'm glad you saw that for what it was, a self-serving act that they try to slip under the radar while distracting people with "patriotism". Because, at least in my mind, true patriotism is helping your community, paying your taxes, looking out for your neighbour... not worrying about whether your neighbour goes to the same church or believes there's only two genders. Hope this doesn't sound patronising, I'm not very good with the whole communication thing. I just see it so much from the Tories over here and the GOP in the States, where they use identity politics to create divides and fan the flames of conflict between groups of people to keep them distracted. They try and make out like there's some great plot, some agenda against "normal people" and it's a gods damned lie. They know exactly what the real plot is because they're behind it.

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.

  5988.  @Yourordinaryuser_  Yes. It also massively reduces funding available for infrastructure and public service spending. And Reagan didn't just cut taxes, he increased defence spending. That's burning the candle at both ends, what do you think that does? He widened the income gap, nerfing economic mobility, and tripled the national debt. So many of the problems the US has with funding goes back to that short-sighted decision.
    1
  5989.  @Yourordinaryuser_ Funny you mention Trump's tax cuts. There's a great read on the Center For American Progress, "Tax Cuts Are Primarily Responsible For The Increasing Debt Ratio". I'm not gonna regurgitate the whole piece to you, that'd be pointless and I really recommend giving it a read, but the salient point is "If not for the Bush tax cuts and their extensions—as well as the Trump tax cuts—revenues would be on track to keep pace with spending indefinitely, and the debt ratio would be declining. Instead, these tax cuts have added $10 trillion to the debt since their enactment and are responsible for 57 percent of the increase in the debt ratio since 2001, and more than 90 percent of the increase in the debt ratio if the one-time costs of bills responding to COVID-19 and the Great Recession are excluded. Eventually, the tax cuts are projected to grow to more than 100 percent of the increase." Great tax cuts, eh? As for the rest of your argument, an increase is an increase at a time when you're cutting taxes. It's a short-sighted decision based on greed. And if you don't know what's wrong with income inequality, you haven't been paying attention. The more it grows, the more it creates unsustainable imbalance within a society before beginning to implode. We're seeing that happen now.

  6003.  @savannahglebe5165  It does sound very 1930s Germany, that's the point. You never encountered irony before?
    1
  6004.  @savannahglebe5165  You could have just said "no, I don't know what irony is". The whole point of Mojo's comment wasn't to be humourous. It was to show you how much your own language supported government censorship. There is hypocrisy at play here and it's all on you.
    1
  6005.  @savannahglebe5165  How is it a matter of opinion? Either someone's language lines up with fascist rhetoric or it doesn't. And no, you don't understand irony. Mojo's comment was a mocking, logical extension of what you had just said to him. If you think it sounds fashy, you need to do some self-reflection.
    1
  6006.  @savannahglebe5165  Two things. One, he was replying to you. Responding to what you said. Second, 1930s Germany had a fascist government. The rhetoric and language used by 1930s Germany WAS fascist rhetoric. This isn't hard...

  6007.  @savannahglebe5165  Their comment literally comes right after yours, it's a direct response to what you said... You claim to want people to engage in good faith but you're a total liar.

  6008.  @savannahglebe5165  If that's the confusion, you could have pointed it out earlier. Why didn't you? Again, it just points to you being wilfully obstinate and dishonest. Because you know you've been caught out, all you've got left is a technicality.
    1
  6009.  @savannahglebe5165  For proposing the kind of censorship that'd go down very well in 30s Germany. Mojo's got you bang to rights. The technicality I referred to is that I mistook who you were replying to and confused them with Mojo. But it doesn't change what you said or how apt Mojo's response is. See, you don't even understand what I meant by "technicality". You seem like a profoundly dumb person trying to act like you get it but you keep proving that you don't. As for it "taking me a day" to come up with a response and that being an indicator that I need to "get a life"... did it occur to you that the reason I didn't reply for a day is because I was off doing something else... having a life? But sure, keep scoring own goals.

Your idea of a healthy, functional society is completely warped, if you can't see how lifting up the poor benefits everyone, yet you want to slash any support that's currently keeping their heads above water. Removing welfare support and pushing people further into poverty increases crime, for one thing.

And what do we call that? Stagnation. Doesn't matter that you didn't use that word, it's what you described. Secondly, what you've given examples for is cause and effect. I'm not sure why you think it makes some grand point about why it's best to not change anything.
    1
  6103.  @trinketmage8145  Your metaphor is getting really snarled up. If two opposing forces are in equal balance and that results in one force slowly creeping forward... then the forces aren't equal. That means one force is stronger than the other. And your point about progressives not being as good at thinking through effects, while conservatives are, is pretty nebulous. Have you seen what conservatives economic policy has done? As for what you're saying, do you even know? You ended with "learn to work together", forgetting that the larger topic is the culture wars being waged by conservatives against minority groups. How are you meant to "work together" with someone who doesn't want you to exist?

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.

  6150.  @Jomchen  "Mega is subjective" is some of the daftest criticism I've ever heard. It's a contextual term. This guy donated £10m, a significant amount. You're calling me dense but you're so confused about the use of a contextual term in a headline, that you're waffling on about "basic rules of good journalism" that you're just making up as you go.
    1
  6151.  @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.

  6152. NATIONAL socialists. The Nazis promised social welfare but exclusively for those that they felt were "true Germans". Because they were nationalists and massively racist. Also, at the outset, the party had both left wing and right wing members. But Hitler had the left wing members purged during the Night of Long Knives. They really didn't deliver on any of their initial promises either. So no, the Nazis were definitely not left-wing.

However, I can't blame the rest of Britain for wanting to get away from this Westminster shambles. What we really need is to reestablish a new nation of Briton.

  6175.  @johndoe-vc1we  A third of 30,000 is 10,000. It's really that simple. Do mothers crying over the bodies of their children care? Yes, they do. These people have no power to stop what is happening. And all this is because Israel is not precise or discriminate, unless their aim is specifically to get rid of the Palestinian population.

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?

  6358.  @crackheadbiden3273  Taken from an interview that Carlson had with Dave Rubin... “I guess I would ask myself, like, I mean I lie if I’m really cornered or something. I lie. I really try not to. I try never to lie on TV. I just don’t – I don’t like lying. I certainly do it, you know, out of weakness or whatever."
    1
  6359.  @crackheadbiden3273  Right, so Tucker admitting to his own lies doesn't prove anything? Then consider this, if Tucker DOESN'T lie then that means he lied in that interview. But sure... I'm the moron.

  6360.  @crackheadbiden3273  Oh buddy... is your back sore from moving those goalposts so much? Where in that quote from Carlson does he suggest at all that he's lying to do anything other than cover his back? But fine, since the person themselves admitting that they lie somehow isn't sufficient evidence for your very big brain, how about in August 2014 when he claimed that more children die from drowning in the bathtub than from guns? That was a lie.
    1
  6361.  @crackheadbiden3273  Now you're lying about the claim Tucker made. He never specified an age group, he said "more children died last year..." and that's provably false. So again, you're trying to move the goalposts and change his statement so that it's not a lie. You're a dishonest scumbag.

  6363.  @crackheadbiden3273  The irony... Him admitting he lies on air is all the evidence needed to prove he lies on air. He said he lies when he's cornered which has nothing to do with not hurting people's feelings. And the big claim about child deaths was his. He made a big broad statement that was clearly false and you're trying to weasel him out of it by saying "oh, he only meant children below the age of 5". Which is a total lie. That's not what he said at all. But sure, you keep lying to protect him. Bit weird and pathetic of you but hey...

  6364.  @crackheadbiden3273  Anyone under the age of 18, so when he "more children died last year..." that's covering any age from newborn to 18. But you're trying to say he only meant children aged 0 - 4. Then why didn't he say that? And no, you're not getting an apology. You're just as much of a dishonest, grubby coward as Tucker is.

Who, like Reform center themselves around a single issue; climate change. An important issue that affects us all but is hotly debated. But so much media attention goes to Reform. Their importance inflated beyond reason. Given so much air on the basis of personality politics. Because Farage gives journalists the kind of soundbites and gaffs they love to write articles about, whether they like him or not, to provoke outrage amongst the public regardless of the actual harm it does. He's only important because he's been propped up time and again by the media, in a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy. All while we ignore the most pressing challenge our species has ever faced.

  6590. That's simply not true. Pull your head out of Trump's rear and it's easy to find a lot of people who voted Biden AND despise him. They didn't want Biden, but they voted for him to at least take a step back from the far right. As for being cogent, competent and free of ethical issues, Biden and Trump are, at minimum, on par.

  6593.  @dakkossman2063  In such a "total freedom" environment, I am free to murder you. That takes away your right not to be murdered by me, your right to life. So we enact laws and that enshrine those rights. Now I am not free to murder you. Have you taken away my right to murder? Is that impinging my freedom? You have to ask yourself what matters more; the right to enforce your will on others or the right of others to determine their own will.

  6604.  @Realisticautism  The natural shifts in climate have been thrown out of whack by human industry. The speed with which its changing means that many other species, vital links in the ecosystem such as pollinators, are disappearing. And last time there were a lot less people more spread out. Now, we're facing the prospect of conflict as resources get increasingly more scarce. So no, it's not just like last time.

    1
  6636.  @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
  6637.  @blablablabla1111111  Just to be clear, are you trying to argue that people on 60k don't qualify as rich?
    1
  6638.  @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
  6639.  @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
  6640.  @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.

They outlawed socialism and, while they quickly moved to targeting ethnic groups, initial mass executions were of communists and socialists. Support for the Nazis, especially in the US, came from leading capitalist and right-wing figures.

  6690.  @kennwan9917  You didn't say that and I never asserted that you did. You oughta read my comment again with more care. The irony is you've done the exact thing you just accused me of. My point, which seemed pretty clear, is that you're having a go at medical staff striking for more pay citing various reasons that are far more apt when applied to our political class. But rather than be angry at the architects of our situation, you're telling workers to sit down and accept their lot.
    1
  6691.  @kennwan9917  They're the reasons you cited. That's why I said "you're having a go [...] citing various reasons". So if you've already forgotten what those reasons were, read your OWN comment again with more care.

  6693.  @jsd354  The message didn't sound positive to me. It sounded more like a threat to anyone they didn't consider to be "on their team", so I can't see how the party is inviting everyone in. They're making it quite clear that there's a lot of people they won't accept. The whole thing about their god seemed very bizarre too. Separation of church and state is a thing for a good reason.
    1
  6694. @jsd354  That's not my misunderstanding, that's your miscommunication. And how you interpret the idea of "god" is irrelevant because the speakers at this rally don't share your personal religious beliefs; they are espousing Christian supremacy. If you aren't taking that on board, then you're not making a fair assessment of what they're saying, you're just hearing what you want to hear. Also, separation of church and state isn't a metaphor. Of all the ways you could describe the concept and its execution in the US, a metaphor is not one of them. All of this is to say that simply giving your personal interpretation, based on pretty flimsy reasoning, does not show the reporting as being disingenuous because your view is subjective. You might have found it uplifting AND all the comments made in the report can also be true.

    1
  6791.  @songsmith31a  You use a lot of words to say nothing of substance. It doesn't matter that the police draw on the public to fill their ranks. Most members of the public aren't violent or hateful. The issue is with the screening of recruits, of how reports of misconduct and outright law breaking are handled. Nothing that you've said addresses that very simple fact. No, you seem to be attributing failings to "knee-bending"... just say "woke ideology", I know that's what you mean. So you seem less concerned with matters like Cressida Dick's complete botching of the investigation into Jean Charles de Menezes, which put numerous lives at needless risk and ended with an innocent man dead. Or the rape and murder of Sarah Everard by an officer who was known to his friends as "the rapist". Their negligence in the case of Stephen Lawrence, because he was black, or failing to take Stephen Porter's case seriously, resulting in murders of young gay men, because they were homophobic. So don't give me this "agendas" nonsense because the police agenda has been clear for a long, long time. Maybe include that in your history lesson, might give it some value.
    1
  6792.  @songsmith31a  No, they're not one and the same. For a start, you never mentioned "the selection process", you just said "The society that has been created supplies the members of the police service". Meaning that if we have a violent, hateful society then we get violent, hateful police officers. My point is that since not all of society is violent and hateful, by a considerable margin, then your explanation for why we have bad police officers doesn't hold any water. What it in fact points to is failings in the screening of new recruits, which is not the same as simply who applies. Yes, the cases I cite are historically recent, within the last two decades. Which is why I said earlier that I'm "not sure how you can look at events of the last couple decades, at the findings of reports into police conduct, and be surprised that people tend towards not trusting police". Are you keeping up so far, Mark? Because you seem to think we're having a different conversation. Unfortunately for you, there is a record of it that we can consult. Officers murdered in those years are irrelevant when it comes to judging how police corruption has eroded public trust. It's not like you can cash in a murdered cop for a corrupt one. For the same reason, it doesn't matter that there is daily unreported good work done by police officers, that's their JOB. It's the bare minimum. You don't get a medal for NOT being a rapist and murderer. Are you starting to get this now? Do you even understand what this conversation is actually about?
    1
  6793.  @songsmith31a  Oh, you mean that comment where you used a lot of words to say absolutely nothing? For example, "in flux" means constantly changing. So writing a sentence like "a society in flux which was itself changing" tells me that you don't know what the words you're using actually mean. So can you see why I overlooked it? It's because while you did, admittedly, use those three words in a reply to me, you threw it in the middle of a word salad and gave no information about why it was relevant. You said nothing ABOUT the changes to the selection process, nor on the role it played. And that seems par for the course. You claim I fail to grasp the relevance of murdered coppers while making no effort to explain the point you're supposedly trying to make. If I'm being generous, I'd say you're too focused on being a smartarse to be saying anything useful. If I'm not, I'd say you don't have anything useful to say and the smartarse facade is just obfuscation. And I'm not feeling very generous today. I suggest you sit these discussions out. Doesn't seem like you have anything worth saying.

  6798.  @taxicamel  Again, we're talking about the industry that I currently work in and have done for years now. I actually do know about this subject, rather than yourself. Automation is already deployed in many places but here's the thing; it does make errors. It can't adapt to changing circumstances, for example. Or struggles to take physical space into account when plotting routes. And when it breaks down, which is also common, you have to wait for a tech to fix it. Humans, meanwhile, can adapt and intuit. They work around issues that cause a train wreck for automated systems... sometimes literally! Ever seen a wrapping machine gone rogue? No, workers just work better. Damn hard too, contrary to what you think. The wealth of these companies are built on the backs of these workers. So don't take them for granted.

But what you also need to understand is how skewed the US' perception of left and right wing politics are. You don't have mainstream left wing outlets. CNN, MSNBC, these are centre-right by most nation's standards. And they've been shifting more to the right to try and retain viewers, since the US as a whole had always been pretty right wing and are currently getting worse.

It'll only put a little extra cash in people's pockets, while the loss to public funds will result in public services taking a big hit. This locks people out of healthcare, public transport and effective education. Unemployment goes up. This will further impoverish communities, leading to a rise in crime which the police will struggle to deal with since they'll have lost funding too. Everything gets worse.

I don't expect them to think exactly as I do about every issue but I do wish they'd care to a similar degree. I think it'd help if more people felt empowered to bring about positive change. If they felt that there was a chance they'd make a difference, they might engage more. That certainly tends to be the main reason for refusing to vote.

Unless the victim goes immediately, literally immediately, to the authorities than any of the physical evidence you're alluding is impossible. The police record in this regard is due to their own failings and misconduct. It's been the subject of numerous investigations.

  6961.  @eddiecalderone  The elected representatives that the vast majority of this country are fed up with and almost certainly going to vote out next year, in one way or another? Not a strong benchmark. And the evidence suggests that a lot of people who voted leave have changed their mind, now that they've seen what it actually means.
    1
  6962.  @eddiecalderone  There have been several polls in recent years of public opinion regarding Brexit outcomes and reflecting on voting decisions. There's also been a few studies looking at voter demographics and accounting for deaths as well as the prevailing attitudes of younger generations towards EU membership. They actually talk about that in this video, and other LBC videos on this topic.
    1
  6963.  @eddiecalderone  No, you're not. You didn't know about them when you made your last comment. Why lie? It doesn't matter who they're the output of if they're reflecting opinions and attitudes of the public and, in some cases, specifically public who voted leave. Changing voting rights don't come into it. But funnily enough, you're the one insisting on themselves being the arbiter of when people get to vote.

And again, and again... Whereas Putin can't use nukes without turning every nuclear power against him, including China. It's daft to say that Russia only struck because of a poster. It's not like they've been very discerning with their strikes throughout this war. And no-one is pushing Ukraine into this except Russia. No, they're fighting for their existence as an independent nation. So I don't understand your angle here at all.

If he knows all he has to do is make enough threats and people will capitulate, give him what he wants? Make no mistake, if Ukraine surrenders to Russia then WWIII will come all the sooner.

Don't get me wrong, I'm no supporter of the Rwanda plan but there's much better, smarter options for housing people in the UK than trying to build on places like the Isles of Scilly, such as actually making use of existing brownfield sites and infrastructure within our cities.

  7138.  @masonm600  I've never used a dating app but I don't see how they could be responsible for raising peoples standards so dramatically in a way that glossy magazines and celeb culture haven't. No, I think a more likely answer is not that men have gotten worse but rather they've gotten stagnant. A common thread with incel/misogynistic people is that they idealise a nostalgic view of the past when times were simpler. What they fail to take into account is that those times were simpler for men but still sucked for women, even "privileged" women. And times have changed. Most women don't want to live up to the 50s Housewife "role model".

  7162. @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
  7163. @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
  7164. @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
  7165. @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.

  7169. I think this 'need' for characters to be relatable is flawed. Most of us live relatively narrow lives. Dumbing characters down to fit into that narrow perspective results in a lot of generic, dull characters. Why should we be able to relate to a character like Superman? Why is that important? Rather than have characters who expand our world views we instead get ones who pander to them.

Would these same people approach parents of a child with cerebral palsy and say the same thing? I'd hope not and I'd hope those people can expand their compassion and understanding to include all animals, not just humans. I believe in euthanasia but only when the subject has requested it. When the subject is running around and loving life, why would it even be on the table?

  7192.  @cristianproust  I don't expect you to come back and see this, let alone respond... then again, you probably will. Earlier in the thread I wanted to ask you to give your opinion on the fact that multiple Ivermectin studies are failing forensic peer reviews, often for very blatant and intentional falsifying of data. But when other people then brought those up, you ducked around the issue. So that seems futile. At this point I just want to ask: where is your self awareness? Because everything you accused others of in your long, rambling and poorly thought out rants can be attributed to your own behaviour a hundredfold. Suffice to say, after reading everything you wrote here, I do not believe that you have a PhD. You're just too erratic and sketchy, which doesn't suggest a keen mind. Plus, people with qualifications speaking from a place of authority tend to lead with it since it gives context for what they're about to say. You, on the other hand, waited a long time to bring it up. Almost like it only occurred to you later. And you overdid it by including your wife and parents. Just looks like bragging. Stop trying so hard. It isn't working and just makes you look silly.

  7227. @johnnytsunami3695  Right back at you. You started by saying no-one knows what Trump stands for... which isn't true and I pointed that out. And then you try and deflect with irrelevant questions or waffling, rambling paragraphs. While displaying awful syntax for the English language, which is why I don't believe your claims about your ancestry. So yeah, what's the point when nothing about you is honest?

  7235. Really? They've had to fall back from parts they've claimed multiple times. They don't seem able to capitalise on their gains and have to give them up soon after. As for not really using their military power, is that why they had to beg drones off of Iran? Not many people believe it when media says Russia is losing. Most of us know its more complicated than that. But I don't know anyone who believes all you Russian disinformation bots that swarm on videos like this. The more of you I see, the more desperate it seems like Putin is.

  7236.  @ldan1788  No Russian disinformation? Yeah, and I'm the queen of Sheba. I mean, for one thing, here YOU are.

  7237.  @ldan1788  It's just laughable that you think Putin has been so honest and forthright.
    1
  7238.  @ldan1788  You said there's been no disinformation from Russia. Now you're saying you never claimed Putin was honest. Get your story straight if you're gonna be a propaganda tool.
    1
  7239.  @ldan1788  You got caught out lying and changing your story to suit your own agenda, so you've got no integrity and nothing you say carries any weight.
    1
  7240.  @ldan1788  Yeah, you are. You said there was no disinformation coming out of Russia. Then, later, you said you never claimed Putin was honest. So yeah, you're just a lying propagandist for Russian interests. Your words are empty.
    1
  7241.  @ldan1788  And I never discussed Zelensky but you're trying to wrap him into my comments. If there's no disinformation coming out of Russia then that means Putin has only been truthful. But we know he hasn't and you tacitly acknowledged that. So if Putin hasn't been truthful, that means he's told lies. Which means disinformation HAS come from Russia. So yeah, you're a liar and a tool who tries to squirm away from scrutiny by accusing others of the exact thing you're doing.
    1
  7242.  @ldan1788  And what about the false narrative that Russian media is pushing? Since Russian media is a state tool for Putin who we have already established is untrustworthy. The same false narrative that you're here promoting. Are you a state tool for Putin? After all, it doesn't take a genius to see the massive flaw in your reasoning. If Russia is winning, what advantage is there for Western powers to avoid peace and escalate the war? That just creates a bigger, inescapable conflict which is no good for western economies. Capitalist nations may not care about the human cost but they care about their economies.
    1
  7243.  @ldan1788  How does any economy benefit if the war escalates? You can make money if you're sat on the sideline like the US did for most of WWI. But if you're in it, your economy gets destroyed as you lose such a large amount of your resources and, most importantly, your workforce. So why would anyone, opposing Russia, want the war to escalate? I would say your own understanding needs work, it's like you've only got half the picture. But then you're pushing a propaganda channel at me that's all about presenting a distorted, one-sided account of a half picture.

  7249. I agree that these cases coming up time and again highlight how other predators have gotten a pass in the past, how we need to do better as a society in dealing with such crimes. 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.

  7254.  @robinspence7377  The money it supposedly brings in never seems to make it back to us though, does it? Apparently the royal family make us more than they cost, yet our economy is still up the proverbial without a paddle. As for who's shoving it down our throats, I'd say every single mainstream media channel. And I'm not being forced to watch but, as a taxpayer, I am being forced to pay for it. But apparently it'll make more money than it's costing us, so I'll look forward to seeing my borough notably improved by the big "Royal windfall" coming our way.

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".

    1
  7306.  @chappy2121  No, supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression isn't "giving to fascism". Nor is anyone being "punished", its just changing times. Very telling statements on your part, though. Won't be taking you seriously.

  7311. This is more or less where I'm landing. Trans people are being set up as the "other" required by fascism, the enemy to rally people against. Whether or not you agree that what's happening right now qualifies as genocide, you're a liar or a fool if you deny that isn't exactly what a lot of anti-trans folk want.
    1
  7312.  @ricardocabeza6006  Yes. You and your ilk. Trying to argue that trans people aren't being "othered" by right wing figures is pretty loony when you're here literally dehumanising them by arguing against their equal rights and treatment both under law and by their society in general.

  7319. Ultimately, the right answer isn't finding some distraction but addressing the fact that you're regarding women as a commodity and sex as an entitlement and working to change that viewpoint. Develop a healthy respect for people instead of thinking about what you can get from them. Speaking bluntly, it feels more like you're making an advert for Christian groups rather than giving guidance.

  7326. You haven't climbed that ladder alone though, have you? You've benefitted from education, healthcare, availability of resources and opportunities. Without taxation, we can't support these things and our society would deteriorate. You're giving back so that others can also have a decent life and enjoy the same benefits that you did. The other side of the coin is that consistent accumulation of wealth, and the inevitable hoarding that comes with it, directly leads into inflation and a more impoverished working class.
    1
  7327. We really don't... and yeah, it would remove certain rights from being protected by law. We'd have to then trust our political class to replace and reprotect those rights. Given how in the pocket basically all of out political parties are with big business...

  7328. A better question would be why do people take the monarchy seriously?
    1
  7329.  @lukefleetwood7958  It connects us to the worst aspects of our past. Monarchs have been nothing but entitled tyrants. It's only the uneducated and simple-minded who take any joy from worshipping those degenerates.

  7460. Two reasons. One is that more people in the UK have seen nationalism for the poison it is. The second, and much bigger reason, is because Russia painstakingly controls what you do and don't hear from their citizens. You talk of freedom to protest being under threat in the UK, you seen what happens to protestors in Russia?

But it's also true that the bulk of that inflation came as a result of both the pandemic and the Ukraine war. And it's also true that this inflation was very temporary and has been brought down significantly since its spike.

Because Fox is a lightweight with even less of substance on this issue than Ava did in the discussion with Norcott.

  7505.  @k-sell4065  Why are you so scared of answering a simple question? You've clearly stated that you're not bothered by anti-semetism, so you've effectively already picked a side.

  7520.  @yington  Glasgow's history of knife crime.
    1
  7521. @yington  No, it doesn't. You'd have to contend with the numerous studies linking poverty and inequality with heightened crime. But that's not the point, that would be a strawman because no-one is making a claim that specific for you to counter. What the Glasgow point proves is that there's no causal link between black communities and knife crime.
    1
  7522. @yington  The statement "drill music causes knife crime" falls apart when you can identify high instances of knife crime in communities with no drill music. This is just basic.
    1
  7523.  @yington  And that would be a strawman.
    1
  7524.  @yington  You misunderstand. It's you making the strawman argument and your claim that is discredited.
    1
  7525.  @yington  When in this thread has anyone tried to make that argument?
    1
  7526. @yington  Because you're trying to disprove an argument no-one has made in this thread. That's what a strawman is. Because you can't defend your own argument.
    1
  7527. @yington  You keep claiming that but it's not an argument I've made to you, so it's irrelevant in our discussion.
    1
  7528.  @yington  That's something of a lie. Your initial claim said nothing of London, you instead talking vaguely about "certain communities". Whereas none of my comments in this thread have made the claim that you are alleging. You're a deeply dishonest person, aren't you?

That's the core misunderstanding, the full term is "toxic expectations and pressures of masculinity on men", it's about how societal constructs create this toxicity and it's about fixing that. The way it's been twisted and used, such as in the examples you cite, make it into a pejorative term to sling at people and it only makes the issues worse.

  7582.  @amadfook3r  It's physically impossible. If you're dodging a fare that means you're on a train, heading to your destination. So how can they have sold you a ticket for a train journey that doesn't exist if you're on a train making said journey?
    1
  7583.  @amadfook3r  So you were lying before. Do you understand why they're on strike?
    1
  7584.  @amadfook3r  And what service do you expect? They're striking for better pay, along with many public sector workers, as there's a cost of living crisis going on at the moment. It's not greedy to want a liveable wage.
    1
  7585.  @amadfook3r  Trains don't wait for people, YOU have to check the times and get there. Are trains late? Yes, it happens. As with literally anything else in life. If everyone just quit their job and found a new one in order to attain a higher wage, well, that wouldn't work. Because for one, we NEED people working at all levels of our society for it to function and, for another, it's scarcity that makes those jobs pay so much. If everyone took those roles, which they can't anyway, the pay wouldn't be the same. That's why it's important to make sure even "bottom of the rung" jobs pay a living wage. This is basic stuff, man. And no, this is not terrorism. What a stupid thing to say. Basically, the only conclusion we can come to is that you're a petty thief. Which is fine, just don't try moralising to others.

  7586.  @amadfook3r  You're calling them terrorists because you're inconvenienced, yet I'm being obtuse? Back under your bridge, troll.
    1
  7587.  @amadfook3r  Because you'd know one if you saw one, with your hugely compelling "we all know it's terrorism". And hey, take your own advice. If you need the trains to do your work, get a different job that doesn't rely on them. Better yet, seek an education, yours is lacking.

  7589. Some people have to get postal ballots. To get rid of them and insist on people being physically present, you prevent many from voting. And it's vital for democracy that all can cast their vote. While we're here, can you explain why postal ballots are a consistent major problem in elections? Are you able to provide any evidence showing that postal ballots are being used for widespread vote rigging that's changing election outcomes?

    1
  7622.  @ThomasKing19933  That's an opinion, not a fact. The existence of so many bully breed dogs who never attack anyone and the total rehabilitation of those that have been abused and conditioned for fighting proves that.
    1
  7623.  @ThomasKing19933  Do you even know what a fact is? You can use YouTube, right now, to check up on the work of the following organisations; Rescue Pit, Bully Paws Pitbull Patriots, Mid-America Bully Breed Rescue, Austin Pets Alive, Angel City Pitbullls, Stand Up For Pits Foundation, Pitbull Rescur Central, Animal Farm Foundation and the Villalobos Rescue Center. This will show you that not only can these animals be controlled and calmed when fear responses turn to aggression, but also that these animals are no more killers than any other animal on this planet. Tell me, do these bully breeds start their own little fight clubs? Or does it require humans abusing and mistreating them, trying to break them mentally, before they'll act that way? And even then, so many dogs get dumped and abandoned specifically because they WON'T fight.

  7660. 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.

  7849.  @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?

  7879. 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
  7880.  @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
  7881.  @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.

  7923.  @wft15  No, you've gone back in a circle. It only implies freedom for Palestinian people. By denying that and stating that it requires the erasure of the state of Israel, you are implying that Israel's existence is predicated by Palestinian oppression.

And no, Sunak has NOT proven himself worthy. Remember, he was the chancellor all through Johnson's cabinet. Much of the problems we face are of Sunak's making.

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.

  8107.  @Johnyjohn-mc-jonjon  You read nearly every post in the last 2 days to know that, not my fault you just don't have as much of value to say. Drag queens are literally just blokes in dresses, it's like going to the panto and there's the dame. It's one of the most harmless, innocent things you'll see and I don't know why you think the first thing a drag queen is gonna do around kids is molest them or indoctrinate them. If that's really what you're so worried about, you should direct your attentions to the Catholic church. Given my comments have been along the lines of "stop disrespecting women", you must be a pretty disgusting individual yourself if you think that makes someone sound deranged. Tell me, are you desparately lonely and lashing out or does some poor woman have to endure your company?

  8275.  @danielrobertson8774  Door-to-door sales are heavily regulated but not, in fact, banned. This isn't actually relevant to legalised euthanasia but does suggest you're maybe not all that up on the facts... The point is that legalising it means that it is an OPTION that people who meet the criteria would be able to discuss with a medical professional. It's not even remotely comparable to door-to-door sales.

That's a disgustingly slanderous suggestion that isn't supported by any evidence whatsoever. So you're probably lying about knowing people with that condition, which is not a disease at all. You're just making it up and its really obvious.

Page and various other members of Trump's campaign team WERE in contact with the Russian government, who favoured Trump over Clinton and who did intefere in the subsequent election. It's also not true that the Clinton campaign paid the Russian government to compile the Steele dossier. Steele was working for FusionGPS, a US company. That's who the Clinton/DNC paid. Which immediately shoots a hole in your "therefore". I dunno where you got that idea from. It doesn't even make any sense, why would Clinton pay Russians to help Trump win? There's no logic to that. And we know quite a bit about the Russian government's outreach to the Trump campaign, thanks to the Mueller report. See, that's why Trump allegedly getting peed on took 2 years to investigate. Because the rabbit hole went pretty deep and lead to much bigger, more important revelations. Whereas this proposed conspiracy theory makes no sense and is full of holes. Doesn't even take 2 days to pull it apart.

You're making assumptions about me as a person that aren't based on anything relevant to the topic and using those assumptions to dismiss my argument. Meanwhile, you're making claims about the dangers of legal euthanasia that are unfounded, they have no basis in fact. This is referred to as "fearmongering" and you are engaging in it. That's an observable fact and relates directly to the topic, so it's not an ad hominem.

Israel's government and military need to stop treating Palestinians as subhuman, to stop forcing them out of their homes and into lives of poverty, they need to stop engaging with Palestinian communities as inherently hostile and criminal. Israeli military action does nothing to protect Israeli citizens, since all it achieves is hardening support for groups like Hamas and ensuring further attacks.

That's why he interfered in Ukrainian elections, with the help of Paul Manafort, and had a puppet installed. That's That's he annexed Crimea after his puppet got thrown out. That's why he invaded. The US have their own horrendous track record but to say this is all about them is either ignorant or outright dishonest.

  8454. After a kick and stamp like that, I don't doubt a serious head injury. And what you have to remember with George Floyd is that the protests that followed weren't really to do with the man himself. It made pretty much every black American remember when they or someone they love has been the victim of police brutality. It sparked a bonfire that had been building for decades.

  8455. ​ @BanIslam-j6p That's a lie. For a start, the BLM protests were against police brutality and the police responded overwhelmingly with even more brutality. There are hours and hours of footage showing this. So the BLM protests didn't achieve anything by violence, they were responded to with violence.

    1
  8470.  @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.

    1
  8531. Drawing large crowds to a rally doesn't prove anything. Because those crowds still represent a small amount of the overall population. The fact Trump obsesses over crowd size should help clue you in to the fact that it's not really indicative of the outcome.
    1
  8532.  @jasonhill2180  It's a pretty weak indicator. Her crowds were never that big, when you think about overall populations.

Later, you start going on about the Green Deal paving the way for communism which is just a bizarre leap in reasoning with no factual basis. Then you start talking about far-left elites, showing you know nothing about left-wing politics. If you did, you'd know its largely about removing hierarchies and decentralised power. So yeah, you're talking rubbish.

    1
  8576. I hear you and agree. 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.

Nor are you recognising that general attitudes about nudity and the human form vary wildly between culture.
    1
  8612.  @MightiiNinja  You kinda do if your claim is "global". Or at least don't leave out an entire continent. Makes it seem awfully like you're making it up as you go along, just to support an argument based solely upon your moral concerns. Also, have you EVER seen a copy of National Geographic?

  8640.  @Arangggg  Again, I must point to the abysmal track record of the police in this area. See, if the alleged victims did this the way Brand fans are suggesting it should be done; with nothing made public, everyone remaining anonymous etc... then if the prosecution fails due to a technicality or 'cos the alleged perpetrator had considerably more money and influence to throw at it, the alleged victim is no better for the harrowing ordeal. You can debate the ethics of going to the press but you should also try to look at this from a victim's perspective. If you're not confident that the legal system will work for you, better at least to get the story out. Its easier to find closure if you've spoke your truth.

  8681.  @corpocorrupt  Yeah, it yielded a single WP article which didn't cite any sources. Its also not actually as simple as Dems directly funding radical candidates, either. It's more about what they're drawing attention to in their attack ads. But it's important to note that there's no indication that anything stated in said ads is untrue. Saying Democrats are funding radical republicans isn't true. What's happening is that Dems are spending their campaigning funds on making attack ads that highlight the republican candidates views and beliefs. In some cases, this makes the candidates more appealing to mental MAGA voters, in other cases it makes them less appealing. And yes, this could create easier races for Dems, if they're running against a loon.

    1
  8744.  @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
  8745.  @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
  8746.  @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.

  8747.  @rupertbollywood1190  You're still trying to move the discussion away from the topic with more ad hominem attacks. Why is that?
    1
  8748.  @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.

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?

  8804.  @mrnobody9227  No, something substantial. Anyone can make any claim they want about their personal experience when anonymous. Comparing our social services to the rest of the world is also a bit meaningless when you've got no data on how the rest of the world performs in that regard. Nor does it reflect at all on whether or not it's a "choice" to be homeless. However, when you listen to the accounts of actual homeless people - I know LBC interviewed one back when the story broke, as did PoliticsJoe - the picture they paint of such facilities is bleak, one where they face being attacked and robbed. Calling it a "choice" at that stage is pretty sick, as you're saying "choose to live on the streets or enter a hostel where you're less safe". Additionally, many of these people will have substance dependencies, mental health problems or often both. When someone is not of their right mind, is it fair to call their circumstances a choice? You don't sound like someone who spent two decades working with care and compassion to help support homeless people. You sound like someone who's read a tabloid article and is regurgitating it.

I'm simply wondering if there's something to be taken from this experience that could help other fosterers in similar situations. I'm trying to see things from Pizza's perspective and I wonder if she felt trapped and contained by humans. Seeing how quickly she seemed to calm down when introduced to the other cats, maybe it was that experience that let her really see and understand that this isn't a scary place and this human really does care.

The only way that part of your comment stands up is if you're admitting to using multiple accounts. The question then would be why? Further, free speech isn't banned in Europe, nor is the continent significantly socialist.

You don't have a clue what you're on about, just like in the other thread. We know that's not true, we know it originated in Western Europe in the 1600s, long before Russia resembled what it is today. You cherry pick a few points from history to try and create a false narrative around the Democrat/Republican standpoints. But you don't mention William Jennings Bryan, at the turn of the 20th century, his push towards ensuring increased social justice via expanded federal power and how that caused a shift in attitudes over the next 20 years and culminated in Republicans opposing FDR's New Deal. A huge factor in the well documented party switch. You say the history speaks for itself. But I know for a fact that you haven't actually studied any of it, otherwise you wouldn't be saying such ridiculous things. I think you're just regurgitating someone else's talking points. You don't know anything about the things you're saying. So it's laughable that you call me brainwashed, misinformed and manipulated. Because you're demonstrably nothing more than someone else's tool.

They're centre-right. What evidence do you have that David DePape is a... "leftard"? Who comes up with these crappy insults? But yeah, all evidence I've seen is of some insecure alt-right idiot who's scared of women and "wokeism". I don't deny that lunatics can be across the political spectrum, though there does certainly seem to be a trend when it comes to mass shooters. But you seem prone to hysteria and lies, so I'm gonna need you to prove yourself if you're gonna try and make a point about dishonest media.

  8919.  @optimus3305  DePape was all that... up till about 2014 when he got into the whole GamerGate nonsense, getting involved in right-wing anti-feminist ideologies and penning screeds against communism and "wokeism". If you're gonna profess to listening to both sides, you can't just cherry pick the parts that support your narrative and ignore the bits that tear it up. And "white replacement" is a right-wing ideology, through and through. Biden has never stated that its his immigration policy, he's actually come out in condemnation of the ideology. If you've got evidence otherwise, then put up or... I just hear a lot of twisting of the truth, misrepresentation of facts and even outright lies coming from you. Gonna have to do a lot better to be taken seriously.

  8920.  @optimus3305  Once again, the US doesn't have a left wing political party. The Democrats are centre right. So if you think they're "so far left wing", that says a lot about how much you identify with right wing politics. Biden sucks. But accusing him of being incoherent, dishonest, corrupt and compromised by foreign nations really doesn't carry any weight because you have to look at who he is replacing. He's rubbish but he's also a step in the right direction. Exaggerating his flaws really does you no favours. Can't you see you're acting exactly like the strawman you're attacking? So no, I don't buy any of your "till I opened my eyes" nonsense. You're sleepwalking towards fascism.

You're just repeating the same garbage you hear on the TV and YouTube that you watch. You're a puppet dancing to someone else's tune.

  8987.  @Edward-hv9ww  I'm basing my judgement on how obvious it is that you're parroting someone else. Because there's clearly bits where you've forgotten or misremembered and had to fill it in yourself. I also never actually said what's happening to Palestine is a genocide. What I said was that comparing UK birth demographics to genocide is dumb. So you've either not realised that you're trying to argue against a point I haven't made or you're aware and trying to put words in my mouth to support your own (someone else's) argument. Can you see now why I dismiss you as a loon?
    1
  8988.  @Edward-hv9ww   Actually, Ronin Hood bought up genocide. I responded to him, you then interjected saying to look at birth rates. This is how conversations work. If you didn't mean that the birth rates support the notion of a British "genocide", then you don't understand how conversation works. You also don't understand what "parroting" means. Parrots can mimic speech but don't understand it. So when you "parrot" someone's talking points, it's clear you don't actually understand them. Just like you parroting me using that statement and immediately misused it.

  8989.  @lordtywinofhouselannister5433  No, I don't acknowledge your lunatic conspiracy theory. You're just a bigot grasping for justification.
    1
  8990.  @Edward-hv9ww  You literally just said you were talking about displacement and how it's comparable as a form of genocide. Granted, you didn't say it in those words but I'm trying to do you a favour by coherently summarising your comment. You keep falling back on this "can you read" shtick but the better question is "why can't you communicate what you're trying to say clearly". The answer is obvious; you don't know what you're trying to say.

    1
  8995.  @Edward-hv9ww  He's trying to sell you on far-right, anti-semitic conspiracy theory. It's popular with neo-Nazis. And that's the guy who thinks polar bears and tigers can be compared like people.
    1
  8996.  @Edward-hv9ww  Copy paste? Buddy, there's only one way to describe it. It is what it is. If I tell you the sky is blue, do you think that's parroting?

  9000.  @stephenford8775  So you've gone from "he doesn't debate people", then having someone point out he literally does, now it's "you couldn't talk to this guy even if you wanted to".

  9013. Climate scientists have been gathering and comparing data for over a hundred years. Scientific advancements have also allowed them to analyse air composition from thousands and thousands of years in the past, by studying air trapped inside ice cores. It's also allowed them to isolate the different isotopes within carbon and identify what is naturally released carbon and what is produced as a result of human industry. This is just a short answer because going into all of the "hows" is an enormous topic but use this as a starting point.

  9025.  @MISHA33006  Its kinda the point. You're asking why so much aid is leaving the US, well, it's because there's a lot of people who really, really need it. And US foreign policy since WW2 is responsible for most of it, so while you yourself played no role in it, you have to appreciate why as a nation its not sufficient to say "not our problem".

You might wanna tighten up your research, go check out Robert Evans work on studying how they took power and the path that got them there. Then you'll see how the people who actually helped them, wittingly or otherwise, were largely capitalists. Some of whom were trying to use the Nazis to combat communists, because the capitalists preferred Nazis to communists.

  9143.  @tisFrancesfault  Your previous comment hinged on certain conventions being unwritten and that it's wrong to judge them based on modern moral attitudes. Hard to claim that's not what you're saying at all. Now you're stating again that the outcome was unintentional. This is ridiculous. They knew exactly what they were doing with the camps. 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. And there was opposition to these methods, even back then people knew it was wrong. Long before someone had to write it down.

A better thing to aspire to be is considerate and compassionate. To work with your society to improve things for everyone, instead of selfishly thinking of yourself. There's also been studies into whether money brings happiness and the findings have indicated the opposite. I'm not so well versed in them that I could quote them but I recommend looking into them. I do recall one study which concluded that $37k was the optimum earnings, though that was a few years ago now and inflation has probably changed that.

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.

    1
  9249.  @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
  9250.  @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
  9348.  @FoxyPercival714  You think so? Socialised healthcare and education seems pretty ethical to me. But that's also whataboutism. The conversation is "can you be ethical under capitalism" and you've not actually addressed that one at all. So I'll give you some pointers. Capitalism is driving world hunger. We produce enough food to feed 10 billion people but people's demand for "ethical" biofuel means the bulk of grain crops never end up as food. It's estimated that around 20,000 children die every day from hunger. Captialism has resulted in a completely skewed wealth divide. More than 3 billion people worldwide live in poverty while just 5 people own as much wealth as 50% of the global population. Capitalism is deceptive, using branding like "organic" to further increase profits while making consumers think they're reducing their carbon footprint. A 2012 study at the Corvinus University of Budapest found "no significant difference" between carbon footprints of those consuming "ethically" and those who don't. I actually do have more. There's how capitalism forces working class people further down the rabbit hole by making "sustainable lifestyles" unaffordable. There's the way large corporations like BP cause environmental disasters because they cut costs for greater profit. But I think just sticking to three main points for now is more manageable. You don't have to address them all at once either, just pick one and explain how you think "actually, YES, you can be an ethical consumer under capitalism". 'Cos if you're gonna be a creepy stalker, you could at least try to know what you're talking about.

  9360. Objective truth? Like when Tate says women need to "bear some responsibility" if they're the victim of rape, that's an objective truth to you?
    1
  9361.  @v00d00child187  It was a tweet where he said "If you put yourself in a position to be raped, you must bare some responsibility." He wasn't being ironic, he thought he was making some edgy comment about women deserving it, prefacing it with "Women have been exchanging sex for opportunity for a very long time". So he's barely defining a very broad scenario and suggesting that the woman then deserves it. Let's be clear, there's no situation in which a rape is deserved or that the victim bares some responsibility. That lies entirely with the individual who consciously decides to commit a vile crime against someone. You talked of people's "crippled and disgusting worldview" but you're championing this guy? Make that make sense.
    1
  9362.  @v00d00child187  So you've gone from saying he speaks "objective truth" to "I don't agree with everything he says". Then you go on to clutch at straws in an effort to justify what he said. There aren't any circumstances where a rape victim is at all responsible for what happens to them. And what does women exchanging opportunity for sex even mean? It's certainly not a fact since you cannot summarise 50% of humanity so lazily.
    1
  9363.  @v00d00child187  If it's a fact then provide evidence and explain why, in each case, the woman is responsible for a man deciding to commit the crime of rape.
    1
  9364.  @v00d00child187  Why did you delete your previous comment? The one about prostitution? 'Cos Tate is not talking about sex workers. He said exchange "opportunity", prostitution is a financial transaction where both parties are clear on who's getting what. So Tate is obviously trying to suggest manipulation on the part of women. You stated that this is a fact, if it's a fact then there's evidence. If you're going to make such a gross, lazy generalisation of roughly half the world's population, you should really have evidence to support it. And asking people personal stuff like that? Creepy and gross. Stop being creepy and gross.

  9365.  @v00d00child187  Yeah, I asked you to give me evidence that supports your "facts". You didn't, you just rambled on about other nonsense.

  9382.  @rupertm2542  If you've read about him you should be able to explain why his views and actions reinforce your claim that "most directors are lefties". And no, I didn't ask for only one example. Again, your claim was that "most directors are lefties" and I asked you to cite these directors. Note the S. Means plural. As to your question, my answer is simply that I don't think it's a right-wing issue. That wasn't my claim. You're presuming that based on what the presenter said. You've done quite a bit of that, actually. Just focus on answering the questions I asked, don't try and guess at question I haven't asked.

    1
  9422.  @rory1009  That figure is still off from your initial claim by over £40bn. It's important to note that "economically inactive" includes students, carers, the disabled and early retirees. You also didn't address the largest portion of welfare spending being for pensioners.
    1
  9423.  @rory1009  You didn't say that's what the costs will be, you said that's what the cost is. Based on your choice of language, you clearly have a prejudice against benefit claimants. So you've lied to try and misrepresent the situation. Why should anyone listen to anything you say?

  9434. 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.

  9468. I think peaceful protest, while a lovely idea, has somewhat failed us in the UK. Because we are so agreeable in how, when and where we protest then it's so easy for us to be ignored. We're not allowed to protest outside #10. Why not? Why do we let the corrupt morons in charge dictate to us how we can express our discontent with their management? So is the answer more violent and destructive protest? Maybe. We definitely need a more effective way to let them know we're not having it.

Now factor that into just how many BLM protests took place across the country. Compare that to whats happening now. Oh, and thanks for confirming that JSO haven't attacked anyone and also can't really be compared.

    1
  9510.  @lewis123417  And did you read more than two paragraphs of that article? I don't think you did. You should read the bit explaining how the worst injury was sustained. Its actually kinda funny. And makes the figure 26, at most. And no, that wasn't my point. My point was that across dozens and dozens of protests with huge attendances, only 26 injuries caused by protestors. Possibly less, if the mounted cop is anything to go by... Now compare that to what's happening now. Its also worth comparing causes. The BLM protests were against police brutality, a very real and documented issue. These riots are against immigrants. Just the concept of them. Can't say much more than that, as it's all a bit vague. Hearing a lot of very conflicting and confusing statements from those supporting them.
    1
  9511.  @lewis123417  I don't agree that rioting is wrong regardless of the cause. Not all causes are equal. Rioting to secure basic human rights is more moral than rioting to remove them. Even still, that's you trying to change the subject and refocus the argument. The point is that the comparison you've tried to paint between the two different protest movements doesn't stand up.

  9518. I don't think that's a fair way of looking at it. In a capitalist society, money needs to keep moving. Stashing money away and sitting on it harms the economy. So you're trying to frame the spender as being reckless, when in reality they've kept money circulating. The thrifty saver, they've hoarded. That causes stagnation. What's the solution? Inheritance tax. I'm sure it's not a perfect system, but I don't think you're portraying it fairly.

So while it seems iffy, the Tories aren't exactly flouting the rules with all this leader-switching. It does, however, highlight their incompetence and that, taken in hand with all their screw-ups, puts us in a real crisis of leadership. So yes, general election would be good.

  9579.  @ruthingle1487  I don't know of any time in recent history where its been this chaotic and shambolic. That's why I agree a general election is needed. Not because Sunak is "unelected", though I also agree that the reality of our political system is that many people are voting based on the personality they want in No10. No, we need to argue for a GE in the grounds that Tories have proven incompetent and rudderless at a time of great crisis, which we can ill afford.

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.

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
  9653.  @joeboz4482  Again, you're trying to undermine the validity of their protest by lying about their conduct. So the chap holding up a blank piece of paper was just standing and screaming? You're making it very clear that you'd oppose women's suffrage or the civil rights movement based on their mode of protest. The fact you haven't heard anyone other than me defending the protestors just shows how little attention you're paying.
    1
  9654.  @joeboz4482  And now you're questioning their intelligence. Ad hominem continues. Thanks for showing us who you really are.
    1
  9655.  @joeboz4482  So now because their protest hasn't immediately moved the dialogue forward on the abolishment of the monarchy, something that's definitely their fault and nothing to do with the attitudes of those opposing them, then they're just worthy of derision? That's your attitude towards all protestors or just in the case of anti-monarchists? Because lets be clear, you ARE arguing from an anti-protest stance. Not once have you engaged on whether or not the monarchy itself is a positive thing and the merits of their views in that regard. No, your concern is simply a matter of "is it classy and respectful". Immediately siding against the protestors, just lacking in the courage to actually come out and say it.

At one point there was a mass dogfight over London and there are photos showing the skies over St Paul's cathedral. The sky is full of contrails.

  9674. Let's be fair, Biden doesn't have a stellar record and he IS too old for the post. Plus there's the being really creepy with kids thing. I was genuinely disappointed that he was the best that the Democrats felt they could run against Trump. He's not great. It's just laughably ironic for the MAGA crowd to attack Biden for his senile moments and handsy behaviour because, at least in that respect, anything Biden can do then Trump can do better.
    1
  9675.  @carollund8251  Yeah, Biden has a pretty creepy way with minors. There's plenty of examples of it out there. "Being affectionate with children" is a very broad term. I think his actions stretch that term to breaking point. He's almost on Prince Andrew levels. Also, not an American, thank you very much.

And it's a fact that a whole bunch of them attacked the police while trying to force their way through to the cenotaph. So they could defend it against what, a load of people over a mile away? Plus, if you actually look critically at Mahyar Tousi's work, he's much like Andy Ngo. A dishonest pot-stirrer.

Similarly, Corbyn has been very clear in his condemnation of Hamas and calls for an end to the violence. But hey, don't let reality get in the way of your fantasy.

As for your little rant there... you'll find that kind of nonsense in most religions. But I've never met a Jewish person that actually believes that, just like I've never met a Christian that goes for the whole "sell you daughter into slavery" thing or a Muslim who thinks I'm an infidel who should be stoned. Do some exist? Sure. But Jewish people hardly have a monopoly on mental ideology.

  9746.  @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.

  9785.  @Yournicked  Not really. It's true that the Democrats have engaged in this redrawing of districts but, based on the evidence I can find, it seems that Democrats have largely used it as part of bi-partisan efforts to "re-balance" the effects of unethical gerrymandering in previous decades, particularly during the civil rights movement. Though I wouldn't be surprised if some Democrat politicians had used it to try and gain some advantage. The US Democratic party, like UK's Labour today, are a weak and ineffective opposition.

Or any other puerile, small minded moron who's so stupid as to fall for right wing propaganda. And I don't believe in letting you spread your vile rhetoric unopposed.

  9810.  @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.

But... what happened to the human right to speak freely? You've built your stance around a contradiction. I disagree with your first point too, liberal democracy in practice has shown itself unconcerned with equality of opportunity. Quite the opposite. Otherwise it would be working to eliminate class divides and allow everyone the same opportunity, rather than reinforcing them. You also betray a hole in your education by the way you are keen to single out communism as "the murderous regimes" of the 20th century. Have you looked at the whole picture and seen how other murderous regimes subscribed to different political ideologies? Wait till you see how many people have been murdered in the name of capitalism...

  9934. I'd like to recommend checking out the Behind The Bastards podcast episode, "The Non-Nazi Bastards Who Helped Hitler Into Power". It talks about how Hitler and the budding Nazi party were aided by a few attitudes amongst non-Nazis, largely either seeing them as a joke, as something that would blow over or a convenient tool to tank the reputation of the political right-wing. And we all know how that one turned out. We can't afford to make those mistakes when dealing with populist fascist figures. They may look and sound stupid, because they are. But that doesn't mean they aren't dangerous and taking that threat seriously might help us avert repeating history. We're seeing a worrying rise in right-wing, openly fascistic movements throughout the world. We can't treat it as nothing.

    1
  9961.  @cosmos237  Always wrong? Give some examples. Because we know what variations in temperature results in. Using your own amusing analogy, we know the difference between the temperature at dawn and at midday. So we know that an average increase of 4 degrees will be lethally devastating to many parts of the world, putting an increasing strain on food supplies and population distributions. It's funny you're acting like you know what you're talking about, when you've already demonstrated elsewhere that you just make things up as you go.

  9962.  @cosmos237  Which models? You need to give actual examples, else you could well just be making it up. Like you just made up Yanukovych being a neutral party despite his known affiliations.

  9970. Rome doesn't exist anymore. "The Vikings" weren't a thing in the sense you're implying, it's a blanket term given to raiders from Northern Europe. The Spanish invasion failed miserably, never set foot on British soil. Its not even slightly relevant to this discussion. Germany DID pay for the wars. Whereas the British monarchy, the same line we had during the Empire, have directly benefitted from the pillaging and enslaving of these people. That's the difference.

  9971. ​ @EzraMerr  We've got public sector strikes across the board because economic-libertarian think-tanks have ravaged our economy. And you somehow think the UK is socialist? We've got a right-wing government tip-toeing around fascist values while trying to break down any kind of socialist institution.

  9974.  @ikilledthemoon  That's exactly what it means. It was only in the last century that so-called "advanced" nations gave women the vote! Women used to be traded around like a commodity by their fathers. What you're saying is utterly ridiculous. Who told you all this nonsense? Where are you learning such blatant falsehoods?

  9975.  @ikilledthemoon  I don't believe that little conversation happened. It reads like a lie written by a child. And since your arguments so far all read like lies written by a child... you get my point. Not only do you have a really weird, backwards understand of human social history, you're suggesting that "women in general" are all engaged actively in some conspiracy to manipulate men. That's laughable. I don't think Tate is in control of anything other than your tiny mind.

  9978. 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.

  9982. While I am sometimes baffled by a biopic or period piece fabricating events... in many cases the truth would make for a more interesting story... I think ultimately we as consumers need to take responsibility for our education in this regard, we should be inspired by the historical fiction to go and research and learn all the details, the truth of the matter, for ourselves. If the creators can encourage their audience, remind them that this is BASED on a true story but that they should go and read up on the source material, then all for the better.

  10028. An insurrection is a violent uprising opposing a governing authority. Jan 6th ticks those boxes easily, since it was an aggressive protest incited by the loser of an election trying to overturn a result. This was a peaceful protest that recognised the governing authority, since the protests purpose was to push a pressing issue into said authority's attention. In short, you're reaching.

  10029. ​ @perfectstorm7379 You're not important. No-one needs your permission to speak or to answer your question. I'm glad the memorial service wasn't disrupted. But I've also seen the footage of those, claiming to be patriots, picking fights with police and trying to force their way through. I've spoken with others who were there and they confirmed it. So what do you seek to gain from denying any of it happened?
    1
  10030.  @perfectstorm7379  Cool story. Good fantasy. I never said the trouble was during the service, but that there was trouble. Your attempts to gloss over that are pathetic. I don't believe you that it was Palestine marchers that attacked them, as I've seen no evidence of that and the times really don't match up. That mob weren't "patriots", just pathetic morons. And you're one of them? Consider me shocked...

  10031. You could post images of people with their arms raised but if you were to watch video of those moments you'd see they didn't remotely do the same gesture. He literally said he was giving his heart out after making the salute but he also literally did the salute. One doesn't change the other, especially since that's really not the gesture any rational person makes for such a sentiment. There's also important context, such as Musk's promoting of the German AFD party as well as numerous white supremacist and antisemitic conspiracy theories. Neo-Narsties certainly seem to think he's on their side. So I think it's you who's being selectively blind. And actually, the fact you end by saying "he didn't do it but even if he did, so what" says a lot about where your own sympathies lie.

He's dropping this in the midst of an unhinged rant that disparages Jewish people and promotes anti-semitic conspiracies, and you're telling me that I'm taking him out of context? It doesn't matter if you're "just stating facts", when you make someone's ethnicity the focus then you're being racist.

  10080.  @GSpotter63  If he was honestly using a general term then he'd just say "people". But no, he specifies their ethnic characteristic. And why is it that YOU can define his intent and meaning?

The only person inventing a narrative here is you.

  10082.  @GSpotter63  So since you don't have a response to my last comment, you've gone back to the previous one. You should've gone further back, since it was YOU who stated that it was wrong to assume intent or meaning behind another person's words. My point is that you're a hypocrite, since you're doing the same thing. The difference is, you're being wilfully ignorant to the context of the conversation being had. So all you've done is highlight YOUR own hypocrisy, YOUR own lack of critical thinking... and from the odd examples you've used combined with this very questionable hill you've chosen to make your stand on... I'd say you've highlighted your own hatred. The "poor man"... he's an enormously wealthy man who's been given a platform for his anti-semitic screed. What reality are you operating in?

  10096. The entire discussion around the dogs seems borne of ignorance. We know that some breeds are seen as more aggressive and they get used for dogfighting, encouraged to be violent by their owners. So, so many animal rescues have shown just how thoroughly dogs used for fighting can be rehabilitated. Whereas careless owners with small wire terriers don't put any effort into training or disciplining their dogs, let them run off lead and out of sight, thinking they cant do any harm. I've been attacked by such dogs numerous times while out litter picking, and I've seen the carnage caused when they catch an unwitting bird or squirrel. Point is, there's no breed of killer dogs.

As I said, they're centre-right neoliberals trying to maintain a failing status-quo. I'm just a lefty with a half-decent understanding of what communism actually is and entails. That's how I know you're just being another herd member who repeats what you're told.

  10113. What's more likely. That a US politician has barely the shakiest grasp of what a white nationalist is and wouldn't have been informed of it after his initial gaff? Or that a US politician knows which side his bread is buttered and is appealing to the white nationalists in his voter base?

  10120. Okay. People protesting outside abortion clinics obstruct people going about their lawful business too and generate social pressure against women seeking those services, discouraging them from doing so which could have more severe medical ramifications.

    1
  10165. @truthmatters5209 Ad hominem would be an attack on your character; I criticised your actions as hypocritical, therefore not about your character and relevant to the matter. So not an ad hominem. "Irony" would only be apt if you were being sarcastic, which you clearly aren't, and you used "choreographed" in the context of being planned, rehearsed or scripted. When you're literally copy+pasting the same comment and just changing the odd word, that falls under being planned and scripted. So by your own use of the term, "choreographed". Yeah, I don't think I'm the one misunderstanding terms here...

  10173.  @markschaffer480  No, I said check the facts. Not check Tesla's press release. Have you looked into the allegations made by Tesla staff regarding work conditions and pay rates? The unlawful and invasive actions taken by Musk in response to his employees expressing interest in unionising? Not just in the US, either.
    1
  10174.  @markschaffer480  Are you for real? Some of it ended up in court, it's far from hearsay. What's foolish is being such a shill for Musk that you'll stick your fingers in your ears when presented with facts demonstrating his lack of care for his workers.

  10182.  @saltymonke3682  You're still not getting it. It's not about which part of your "analogy" was wrong. It's that the whole thing is wrong. It's not an analogy. That's like asking me which part of a cow isn't a horse.

It's not enough to say "this is a criminal case and that was also a criminal case that went differently because it was in a different country involving different people". That's not an analogy, just a statement.

    1
  10190.  @saltymonke3682  It's a legal case but not a legal analogy. Not an analogy at all, which is the point... Doesn't matter how much you stamp your foot and resort to ad hominem, still doesn't mean you've used "analogy" correctly.
    1
  10191.  @saltymonke3682  You can have a cow and a horse in adjacent fields. Similar fields, different species, similar circumstances. Is the cow now an analogy for the horse? No. Because that's not what an analogy is.

  10262.  @upshankkumalu9301  Yeah, immature. Further proved by your weak attempts at personal attacks and assumptions on my political leanings. How many people voted for Labour back in 2010, when they lost, compared to how many people voted for Tories in 2019, when they won, has nothing to do with where we are today. Post-covid, with the war in Ukraine, with a rapidly escalating climate emergency. In 2019, the Tories relied on misinformation, smear campaigns and foreign interference. And since then, they've not actually done anything significant and positive that they can point to as an achievement. You might think you have a good point but it's not, it's meaningless.

Have you heard of "urban heat island effect" and do you understand why it means that temperatures at airports are more reliable and generally lower than those taken in dense population centers? If you don't, go look it up. Should settle all your concerns.

  10304. Peterson is a fraud. He claims to be a free speech champion and he's suckered a lot of basic people into believing him, but he's just as petty when it comes to criticism as those he himself criticises, he's just as willing to try and silence people who spread a message he doesn't agree with. This is a guy who's advocated for controlling what people are able to learn, he's just as keen to "program" people into thinking the same way as he does. He's not even profound. His entire philosophy boils down to "I don't like change". He's just a scared little man-child flailing wildly against things outside of his narrow, Christian white male worldview. And it's pathetic when people jump up to defend him as anything more than that.

  10385.  @emmal7920  See, there you go again. You can look up numerous studies about the effects poverty has on increased crime levels, you could look at the world as a whole and see how the patterns repeat across the globe, regardless of ethnicity. But instead, you choose to imply that there's some sort of essential link between certain ethnicities and crime. And you're surprised when that's called out as racist? 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.

    1
  10428. ​ @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.

Your research game ain't great either, it seems like you mash several different stories together to try and make them sound worse.

Yes, it's something that will be on Sunak's plate. But that's not the same as saying the petition will be reviewed in Parliament again. It won't. This is how the government has always done things, they gloss over public petitions to make a play of having listened. Again, that's not spreading falsehoods. If anything, I'm trying to stem false hope.

  10533.  @taras6806  Your Latin is a bit off. If you want to add to the pressure mounting on the government to hold a general election, adding names to a list that Parliament has already looked at and aren't going to look at again seems like a waste to me. There are other, more direct avenues, such as putting pressure on your MP. And yeah, you did make an assumption. You may backpedal but c'mon, why would you have even thrown that at me if it wasn't what you were thinking?

You're absolutely right, there are no perfect solutions but I do think there's no "good" reason (read; profitable) why we can't have more ethical and responsible mining of resources like lithium. I think that's something that could be worked on more immediately, which all buys time for scientists trying to find a breakthrough.

You can also see how old an account is, which would instantly put to bed any suspicions of the same person creating multiple accounts simply for the sake of slagging of Farage. What IS suspect is when a username is a jumble of letters and numbers, indicating it was randomly generated. Funnily enough, the comment in this thread supporting Farage has just such a username, and the account is very new...

  10545.  @dblev2019  Go and listen to Behind The Police by Robert Evans. You can find the whole series free online. He takes you through the origins of the different state police forces (most of them were slave catchers or strike breakers), goes over the creation of police unions (and looks at how the unions consistently defend and reinstate murderers, rapists and drug dealers), how they adopted the "School of Killology" (which is why they shoot so many people) and puts a lot of focus particularly on the history of Oregon's police and the naked racism with which they've operated. The whole thing is expertly researched and he provides all his sources, so you can verify the truth of it for yourself. Not to mention, there's so much video evidence available from the BLM protests showing that they were overwhelmingly peaceful protests until the police turned up and started attacking people.

  10558. I don't think it's ignorant to call Hamas a terrorist organisation or to accurately describe their actions on the 7th as an act of terrorism. It absolutely was. So I disagree with you on that assertion, also while I think calling it a prison riot does raise valid points about how Palestinians are treated it's also really not the case here. What I do think is ignorant is political figures, both in Israel and around the world, acting shocked as if this recent atrocity and the whole conflict just manifested out of nowhere. Or that continued atrocities and abuses against the Palestinian people will in some way defeat Hamas, rather than acting as a recruitment tool for them.

  10559.  @nugglife3035  I think the settlers are definitely colonisers, there's that same mentality. You could argue that's worse.

  10565. 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.

What a surprise, fundamentalist Christians in Uganda are saying "99% of us want this" with no actual evidence to support that statement. As for them being a democratic parliamentary system, they're also known for being incredibly politcally corrupt. In true democratic socities you don't just solely go with what the majority want. You have to consider basic human rights and ensure people are getting fair representation.

  10579. This dissection often seemed to be more about whether given shows are funny or not. Though I agree that shows like Trevor Noah's and Stephen Colbert's often feel like pandering to the audience's preconceived convictions as opposed to challenging the status quo. I think to really go into this topic you have to hold comedy news shows up alongside actual news media. The latter is unreliable and has been for a long time. Charlie Brooker does some excellent analyses of the issues plaguing them. Take CNN and Fox. Both are generally peddlers of sensationalist propaganda for their own side. Noah and Colbert, even at their most fawning, are more balanced than they are as well as being more charismatic. Is it any wonder that more and more people turn to such shows for their news?

You're acting like bringing in more people is gonna bankrupt the country but the reality is we NEED more people coming in to keep it running. The Tories know this, they're just keeping quiet about it so that Braverman can appeal to simpletons like yourself and convince you that foreigners are the problem when, really, it's inept and corrupt politicians like Braverman who've caused the problems.

  10644.  @roops2939  Yes and my point was that we don't fit the criteria for a banana republic. So we don't quite feel, are run like or look like a banana republic. Plus, ironically, if we were a banana republic, we might have a slightly better chance of digging ourselves out of this hole.

  10645.  @roops2939  I feel like, at this point, you're just parroting a term that you've heard. You should look up the criteria for a banana republic. As I alluded to earlier, exploitable natural exports are a HUGE part of it - hence the name BANANA republic - and we just don't have that.

  10662.  @BOZ_11  No, you haven't asked that at any previous point. I can see your comments, I can see they haven't been edited. This is a weird reaction on your part. But go on, I'll indulge your weird self. As to why a second democratic chamber would work "better" than the first... you're right, there's no reason it should. 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?

  10669. Was there a ceasefire when the IDF raided Jenin camp? Corbyn doesn't support Hamas, he wants Palestinian civilians to be treated with fairness and dignity. That means resolving the Israel-Paelstine conflict and THAT means having to negotiate with both sides. Whereas the people we've had in power might pay lip service to condemning atrocities but do nothing to try and avert future ones and sometimes actively encourage history to repeat itself.

  10694.  @firstname4865  Bit of a stupid response, don't you think? It's about cutting the unnecessary. As I'm sure you considered, having a phone and an Internet connection are annoyingly necessary in the modern world. Doing bank transfers, paying council tax etc, all online or via an app. What we CAN do is stop buying things we don't need. Walking, when reasonable, instead of driving. Turning heating down, or all the way off if you can. That'd be a more sensible suggestion...

    1
  10739.  @cally2011  Thats a big leap in logic. All that's happening is you're trying to put your own narrative in her mouth. I'm assuming this is because you can't defend the actual actions of the IDF, in how they've taken essential resources away from people whose only crime is being born in a war zone. Instead, you have to try and pitch Sangita and other critics of Israel as being unreasonable in their criticism, that what they're asking for amounts to surrender on the part of Israel. That's the only way you can make the actions of the IDF acceptable; by pitching it as a fight for survival. When the reality is that the IDF has wielded its power like a sledgehammer against those with the least power to resist or effect change for decades. The IDF is a bully. I'd wager you are too. Can't think of any other reason you'd be okay with what they're doing.

Did you not understand but pretend that you did? Or did you understand it and are now pretending you didn't because you're trying to do the whole "I know you are but what am I" routine. While accusing me of projection. Your response was simply stating that I don't know what I'm talking about. But you've then failed at every opportunity to demonstrate the why. Because you can't. Because you're an idiot and a coward. And, frankly, getting kinda boring.

We KNOW that Truss caused the current turmoil since it was the announcement of her mini-budget that resulted in the pound falling. Strangely, it was her big business chums that profited. How weird...

And he was being very passive aggressive about it, kept trying to redirect, to shift blame, to try and turn things around and fire them back at me... It was a conversation that ended with me resigning my position but I remember feeling very satisfied with how calmly I had handled it and was surprised at how angry I didn't feel after the fact. Only in hindsight do I realise that I employed pretty much every pointer you highlight in this video. It really did work. I'm very grateful for what you do here, it's really helped me a lot. And I know I'm saying thanks even though I still ended up losing my job but, for once, I felt good about it and I owned the decision.

  10958. What daft reasoning. By "accepting civilian casualties" to try and destroy Hamas you simply ensure their continued existence. Because every strike you make that kills civilians, these "acceptable casualties", then you might as well have set up a recruitment drive for Hamas.

  10963. Why?

  10964. So by that same token, would it be okay for a politician to use a racial slur if they believed that the oppositions position of anti-racism was nonsensical?
    1
  10965.  @andybrice2711  But if someone didn't agree and thought it was nonsensical, by your logic it would not be unreasonable for them to mock such ideas. I've made no leap. This is the logical extrapolation of your comment.
    1
  10966.  @andybrice2711  You're not getting this. But you are showing your character and it is at least consistent in being awful. Interesting stance, thanks for being honest about what you are.
    1
  10967.  @andybrice2711  Except that he did.
    1
  10968.  @andybrice2711  The whole "what is a woman/can't define a woman" is a slur that aims to denigrate, ridicule and invalidate trans women. Conservative minded folk don't seem so bothered with trans men, which also says a lot about how they regard women.
    1
  10969.  @andybrice2711  Natural language may not be rigidly defined but repeating a transphobic line, word for word, is pretty straight forward. But go ahead and tie yourself in knots trying to justify this. You already stated that you think it's valid to mock anti-racism as a concept.

  10981.  @jbol2454  Actually, not all of them do. Police forces are relatively modern, Louis XIV of France had the first one. And the socialism aspect is how they are delivered within society. If your house is on fire and you call the fire brigade, do they charge you before putting out the fire? No, they don't. Their wage is covered via taxes that we all pay. That's socialism.

  10990. Okay. But then you'd be facing different problems that people would doubtless be complaining about and demanding something be done.

  10991. All evidence on the matter demonstrates that women are far more at risk from cis men than from trans folk. Given your level of concern over women's safety. What measures are you putting in place to restrict cis men's access to women?

  10992. ​ @tonyshortland8812 The accuser isn't required to be beyond reproach. Probably shouldn't be too surprising that someone who was trafficked by Epstein as a teenager is maladjusted as an adult. "But she took the money" changes nothing that comes before that.

  11001. I don't want to lump all breeders together, I'm sure many are ethical and compassionate, I just feel like dog breeding needs far greater oversight.

    1
  11045.  @random6809  No, you're missing the point. If she can't afford to live where she is now, that means she doesn't have savings. No disposable income to pay for travelling out of London for job interviews and apartment viewings, certainly no money for the deposit and the various associated fees, no money for transporting her belongings... You speak like someone who's never had to do anything like this.

    1
  11047.  @random6809  You clearly haven't. Her problem is she can't afford to move from A to B. Making B further away doesn't make it possible.
    1
  11048.  @random6809  Did you miss the bit where she's had to involve the courts so that she can get emergency accommodation? Because she literally cannot afford to move.
    1
  11049.  @random6809  So you acknowledge that she needs the council to rehome her but also insist that she can afford to move. Which is it?

  11057.  @justinconnolly66  UKIP? It's Reform now. They've been through at least one other rebranding since UKIP, keep up. And isn't that rather contradictory? "British values" implies long established and traditional cultural values. So why would it require "absolute change"?
    1
  11058.  @eddiecalderone  Then explain it.

  11059. The only people who think he's the greatest prime minister couldn't name more than a handful of them, so it's scant praise. We don't need a manufactured clown spewing Trumpian propaganda. The last thing this country needs now is more of that idiot.

  11066.  @williamlightfoot5711  Anyone can have standards, based on a variety of factors. Honesty and integrity, for example. For you... Regional accents? That's not just snobbish, it's pathetic.
    1
  11067.  @williamlightfoot5711  You've definitely taken the term "standard" too literally for the context. We're not talking about standard settings on an appliance, we're talking about personal standards of language. They're personal because it's not something that's gonna be shared as soon as you travel a few miles from where you are. Also, you say that regional accents are fine and should be encouraged, then go on to say that not being able to pronounce something indicates low intelligence. Prouncing "bother" as "bovver" is entirely down to regional accents. Did you not know that? I think making arrogant and condescending statements that are fundamentally classist is the real indicator of low intellect. Smart people tend to know better.

  11072. I think we need to get Labour in, then REALLY hold their feet to the fire to make sure they work on fixing our broken economy for the wellbeing of every common person in this country. 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. Tories have proven themselves increasingly inept so we HAVE to change things up or we're doomed to this death spiral.

  11080. Giving out free contraception is massively cheaper than the cost to taxpayer of supporting children who's parents can't afford to. You need to think these things through. This also combats drug usage in a way that reduces the need for policing, meaning there are more police available for dealing with serious crime.

    1
  11175.  @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
  11176.  @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.

    1
  11228. @chrisf9377  Then give some examples and let's look at the context. Do note, however, that the claim being challenged is that of people being arrested. Harry Miller wasn't arrested, nor did the police turn up at his home. So... accurate claims only, please.

  11237.  The Baddestman  You could say that. You'd be wrong, ancient African doctors were figuring out stuff to do with natural causes of diseases long before we have records of similar cultures taking such steps. You've got a very limited view of world history.
    1
  11238.  The Baddestman  No, this would have been a Egypt. We can't speak to sub-Saharan Africa since, as was the case with most cultures at that time, the various societies relied on oral tradition.
    1
  11239.  The Baddestman  Again, neither did most world cultures at that time. You seem really concerned with inventions, as if they're the only measure of one's worth. What have you invented?
    1
  11240.  The Baddestman  What have you invented?
    1
  11241.  The Baddestman  Pretty lazy racism. You still haven't said what you've invented that puts you on such a high pedestal from which to cast judgement. Then again, you thought Cleopatra and Tutankhamun were white so maybe I'm giving you too much credit to start with.
    1
  11242.  The Baddestman  Her DNA? If you're gonna lie, try and make it at least a little believable. Cleopatra was a descendant of Ptolemy, a Macedonian. Today, it would be sandwiched between Greece and Turkey. Not a particularly "white" part of the world, I'm sure you understand. Ptolemy also became pharaoh a good couple hundred years before Cleopatra was born. We know the Ptolemaic pharaohs intermarried. So she certainly had Greek heritage, but to say she was solely Greek is incorrect and to say she was white is ridiculous. You're a really lazy racist, you know that? You're not even good at being bigoted.

  11243.  @haxstir  Which has been largely influenced by so many factors. Saying its largely Christianity ignores the large cultural differences in Christianity worldwide.

  11247.  @OuchPleaseNoooo  100%. Work to live, sure, but not live to work. Tories will bang on and on about working harder and being more productive. Why aren't we striving to be more efficient, instead? Why do so many people in this world have to struggle along on the bare minimum their country can provide just to ensure "limitless growth" for the few at the top? It's tragic how little humanity has developed whilst our technology has leapt ahead.

  11257.  @AbdurRahman-hh5sz  If you're looking at it like that, you also have to consider the decades upon decades of pogroms carried out against Jewish people across Europe that repeatedly forced them to relocate. Again, none of this is to justify what Israel is doing right now. Especially since Israel doesn't represent Jewish people collectively. Just... don't treat this like some kind of competition of persecution.

  11266.  @ridleyclayburn4599  It was a joke, yes. It was a joke that denigrated Puerto Ricans for no good reason and compared them to garbage. So no, it's not unreasonable for people to be offended by it. And since you want to play the "both sides" angle, it's not like republicans and maggats don't cry and whine like snowflakes when they get criticised.
    1
  11267.  @ridleyclayburn4599  Sure, but if we're playing "present receipts" then it's your turn first. Give some examples of the "poor humour from the otherside" and let's see how it compares.
    1
  11268.  @ridleyclayburn4599  So that was poor taste but this isn't? That's very hypocritical.
    1
  11269.  @ridleyclayburn4599  So one is "just a joke" and the other is "in poor taste" but you're not a hypocrite? Okay... For clarification, Lopez is a Mexican man himself and his joke is at the expense of Trump's slander of Mexican people. Doesn't really compare to Hinchcliffe's. If you want examples of Trump's lot being a bunch of fragile snowflakes, the best example is Trump himself. Look back at his term and how he would respond any time he was challenged by a reporter.

    1
  11283.  @sambishop9567  Yeah, I'd say that's about right. Strange that you think I'd be upset about that. Then again, you seem happy to be a far right racist so it's hardly the strangest thing about you.
    1
  11284.  @sambishop9567  You told me you've been labelled that for the last 10 years. If it was one instance, you'd get benefit of the doubt. But if its happening regularly for 10 years, that should be telling you something. It certainly told me something.
    1
  11285.  @sambishop9567  No, you weren't. Someone who thinks being compared to Trump is a compliment would never have been considered centrist by UK standards, as he is undeniably far right. Nor is it true the Overton window has gone left, quite the opposite. But whatever, you cry and stamp your feet while making the same excuses as a sulky teenager.

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.

  11318. Global means around the world. It doesn't mean literally every square inch of the globe. Looking around the world, we can see plenty evidence of this rapid shift in climate and the overall warming that comes as a result. The fact that the little spot you're in isn't seeing the exact same effects as other parts of the globe doesn't disprove anything. The fact you're having unusual weather for the season may actually support that which you're denying.

It's not simply because you disagree, though the fact you leapt to that conclusion is even more evidence of how small minded you are. No, you're just spouting off rubbish without considering any of the bigger picture at all. Going on about only wanting MPs to toe the line, not understanding where that's gotten us.

  11330.  @jdshgaming3416  You definitely misunderstand because you've just described bartering and you're trying to say that's what capitalism is. Do you know what the "capital" in capitalism means? Go look it up but it basically means wealth. Simple free exchange is not capitalism because no profit is involved. Its true that money is arbitrary but currency is required for capitalism. It could be anything, as long as its consistent and non-perishable but you'd be quibbling over terms to call it anything but currency. So yeah, you're not talking about the same thing or even the right thing.

  11349.  @tomtrotman6176  It's trying to reduce air pollution by taxing vehicles that cause the most. 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.

  11406.  @jacquelinemosforth8280  It's not ridiculous, you're just missing the point. Smoking kills because of a toxic side-effect, that's a bad comparison. The point is that the kind of person who would coerce someone else to take their own life is the same as the kind of person who would choose to mount the pavement and mow down pedestrians. It's someone who is so twisted that they're going to do it regardless of whether a law is passed allowing assisted driving on the pavement. This happens. Through abuse and mental manipulation, people can and have coerced others into suicide. It's already a thing. Legalising assisted dying doesn't enable this, if anything it actually makes it harder. Because now there are proper checks and balances that will be particularly looking out for exactly that. Because there is a proper, legal channel and so if someone avoids that, it prompts investigation. Its not introducing a new harm into society, its finding a pragmatic solution to counter it.

But no, you're not being bullied and your religion is certainly not above being insulted because of the enormous amount of atrocities committed in its name.

  11450. ​ @edmundprice5276  That's an important difference. The only people who profited from the Barbary slave trade were the slave traders. That's part of why these countries are poor. But the whole UK benefitted from the slave trade. At the time, not so much. But a large reason why the UK, US etc are so wealthy compared to African nations is because we took a lot of their labourers and natural resources. Its easy to get rich when you don't have to pay your workers.
    1
  11451.  @edmundprice5276  You could say that, it'd be deeply disingenuous as colonisation of Africa wasn't limited to the Barbary States AND the fact that European powers were already well underway with their own slave trade. Can't really cry about the exportation of people as slaves when you're responsible for doing exactly that. Nothing else you've said really holds any relevance. It's either out-of-context tidbits that add nothing or its just you giving your own twisted perception and calling it "history". I can think of a few books I wouldn't be surprised to find on your shelf..

  11470.  @clairee4939  Wow, you're actually doubling down. You do realise that the only way your claim makes any sense is to acknowledge that he's not a blood relative?

  11471. ​ @clairee4939  So it doesn't reinforce the point you were trying to make at all. These little lies actually undermine your argument.

  11472.  @clairee4939  I'm pointing out a lie that you tried to use to support your claim that people of immigrant backgrounds also share anti-immigration stances. You could have just pointed to Suella Braverman but for some reason you tried to pretend you had some personal stake in it. Possibly because you believe anecdotal evidence is less assailable? Can't say why you'd do it. Very silly.

    1
  11618. That in itself is a pretty homophobic argument. Look at it like this, by suggesting that extreme homophobes are actually closeted gay people it's shifting the burden of homophobia off of straight people and onto gay people. Which isn't the reality of discrimination that gay people face.

    1
  11621.  @perryroberts4353  That's also a common error. While there were some occultism within the party, Hitler wasn't into it and those members who were got quickly sidelined. A lot of the occultism came more from people like Savtri Devi.

The Great Bengal Famine is documented and Robert Evans did a wonderful job of collating all the various research on the matter. As for the textile industry, The Piece Trade is openly acknowledge even by remnants of the company that Indian-grown cotton was exploited to drive the British textile industry at the expense of Indian manufacturers.

I'm drawn not to talk to you but to challenge your lies, because I think allowing you to spread what is basically propaganda, unchallenged, is very negative. And the point I'd like to make at this stage... you've not actually been able to push back on any of the corrections or criticisms that I or others have made in response to your disinformation. You do like trying to change the subject though.

You're scrabbling so hard to defend Israel's general position in attacking Gaza, all because there's nothing you can say to defend their actions in this instance. You're right about one thing; this wasn't a war crime but ONLY because they were Israeli citizens. Because Israel isn't at war with its own citizens, despite appearances. And that just makes it so, so much worse.

    1
  11639.  @seangallagher8233  That's simply not true. The Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression actually investigated this and found the following. Musk suspended numerous journalist accounts, without any initial explanation. It was later found that all were journalists who had been critical of Musk in their writing. He has banned or throttled links to competitor sites, such as Mastodon, Instagram or Substack. Tweets about Ukraine are downranked by the site. Tweets containing words such as "trans", "gay" or "bisexual" get hidden from view, even if sent via a direct message. Meanwhile, Musk's own tweets are boosted and prominently appear on user's timelines regardless of whether or not they follow him. That's not an environment of free speech, that's an environment of approved speech according to Musk. But it gets worse. Under Musk, Twitter withheld access to tweets from an Indian journalist in response to "legal demand" from the Indian government. Not just in India but globally. Even if you live in a country with free speech protections, you could not see them. So he's letting a government enforce their censorship via Twitter.

    1
  11683.  @claypadgett3101  I don't see how you can say the implication is without logic when I'm simply pointing out elements from the story that jarr with Lindell's situation. The Boy Who Cries Wolf is about a kid who lies about a very real danger, over and over, to the point that no-one believes him when it actually happens. And if we accept that Lindell firmly believes the truth of what he's saying, that just goes further to making "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" an inappropriate comparison. On the one hand you have someone knowingly and willfully lying about something plausible that they know damn well isn't actually happening, until it does happen and they get killed while no-one believes them. On the other hand, we've got someone potentially deluded enough to genuinely believe this implausible thing is going down. So even if you think that everything Lindell's been saying is suddenly gonna come true and get him killed, it's not an apt comparison.

  11740.  @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.

  11785. Something that occurred to me when you made the comparison between Chernobyl and Deep Water Horizon, though not necessarily applicable to either works... I always struggled to interpret meaning in more subjective works. Come to learn in recent years that I'm quite autistic, in a way that sometimes makes understanding meaning and emotion challenging. I used to have a friend, massive movie buff, who had a fondness for what I'd call "arthouse", rightly or wrongly. Films which left a lot to the viewer to interpret both in regards to a character's motivation or emotional state as well as the overall meaning or message of a work. These films always left me mostly confused. I would often either spend so much time trying to figure out what I was watching that I'd miss other important contextual details or I'd just disconnect from the piece entirely. While there's clearly some criticism to be made of more "objective" filming and editing techniques, it does at least make clear to me what is happening, who thinks what, what they're feeling. I'm not saying one is right and one is wrong, Chernobyl clearly makes use of perspective on multiple levels as this video demonstrates, some of which I don't struggle with at all. It's incredibly effective, for the most part. All I'd say is that the more onus you put on the viewer to interpret what they're watching, the less accessible it can potentially make the piece to an audience.

  11786.  @Andrew-rc3vh  Why are you against worker's rights?
    1
  11787.  @Andrew-rc3vh  So when you say you'd make sure the worker knew what they were signing up for and that an agreement was made, stuck to... that's just another way of saying you'd ensure workers rights. But you can't just establish a one-size-fits-all agreement to exist in perpetuity. Even within the same job, as time progresses the landscape changes. So the agreement has to change. Which brings us to this; strike action. Because the government are refusing to amend the agreement to be suitable for the current landscape.
    1
  11788.  @Andrew-rc3vh  The current landscape has everything to do with it. Cost of living has been skyrocketing and the old agreement is no longer sufficient. The government doesn't want to change the agreement, so strikes. These people aren't communists, it's pretty ridiculous to call them that, and your suggestion of just moving to another job is daft because our society simply cannot function that way. We need jobs filled across the board. You can't build a pyramid from the top down, so someone HAS to work the jobs at the foundation level and those jobs HAVE to pay well enough that those people are able to support themselves AND have enough disposable income to support the capitalist structure we rely on.

  11789.  @Andrew-rc3vh  That's anecdotal, can't be used to make a wider point and in no way addresses anything I said.

  11790.  @Andrew-rc3vh  Doing tests like that would be very expensive. So you'd have to pay more to enact it. You'd also need to prove that the performance issues are solely down to inept staff and not funding cuts or unnecessary red tape. As yet, you haven't made that case.
    1
  11791.  @Andrew-rc3vh  Such tests would BE unnecessary red tape. And you still haven't proven that "stupidity and carelessness" on the part of NHS staff is is the root problem. Why would we go to the length of spending so much time and money on vaguely defined tests when you can't evidence that?

How fragile are you to interpret that as attacking you without reason. I would have thought it's equally clear that I support the strikers and believe they should be paid a fair wage. That's my suggestion. And having read your vague, half-formed and inane idea of saving money by putting every member of staff through "testing", I can safely say you have just as little understanding of modern business as anyone else here. Plus, the NHS is not meant to be a business.

  11822. Has it? Several northern European countries have successfully adopted a raft of socialist policies and its worked out very well for them.

  11823. Got any facts to support your claim?
    1
  11824. So what's your point?

  11825.  @RedDeadRasta  No, that's your premise. Your assertion. I want to know what your actual point is.
    1
  11826.  @RedDeadRasta  Is it safe to assume, from your weak deflection, that you've got nothing?
    1
  11827.  @RedDeadRasta  You haven't said anything of substance yet. If you actually knew anything, you'd share it. Instead, you pretend to be cryptic to cover for your lack of anything worthwhile.

  11832.  @pcmaclin  You don't have a case. You're just strutting around like a brain-damaged parrot, going on about Labour being bad. The reality is we aren't dealing with a labour government. I hope that eventually dawns on you.
    1
  11833.  @pcmaclin  So what's your default position? Insisting upon the point you're supposedly making but never actually elaborating on it? Cool story..

  11835.  @pcmaclin  Remind me, what was your intelligent contribution?

  11841.  @satyasyasatyasya5746  Cope with what, you being a coward? That sounds more like a "you" problem.
    1
  11842. No, your political ignorance is the problem.
    1
  11843.  @ronaldworth4146  Your opinion is based in ignorance. It's laughable that you now try to claim a middle ground, given your initial comment.

    1
  11845. What dangerous attitudes?
    1
  11846. Maybe politicians who feel untouchable, above the law and the citizens they're meant to serve, should be intimidated from time to time.
    1
  11847. Why are you sure of that?

  11848.  @Zobbster  It IS somewhat refreshing when the creeps out themselves willingly though.
    1
  11849.  @lacdirk  So what, it can do a bunch of things that we already have no trouble doing?
    1
  11850.  @lacdirk  How is it "cheaper" to spend money on something that performs a function that we already have covered? That's not better, that's just spending more money on something we don't need. I don't understand the reliable or consistent angle. My drivers license and passport don't whimsical change form, the information on them remains the same. What's unreliable or inconsistent about them?
    1
  11851.  @lacdirk  It's not cheaper... it's spending money we supposedly don't have to set up a whole new system when we already have one in place. Spending more money on a redundancy is not "cheaper". Having something inspected by an actual person is far more reliable than something you just swipe in some hypothetical machine. You ever seen what happens in shops when their card machines go down? Chaos. And where are you going that you constantly need to carry passports or utility bills on you? Those are for specific circumstances where you know in advance what you need and when. I don't know where you're getting the "less possibility for fraud" from. I've worked in digital security and its wide open to abuse. Hackers, scammers and con artists are always a step ahead so developing "new tech" to try and combat them is wasted effort and money. Put all your eggs in one basket and now a thief only has one thing they need to steal.
    1
  11852.  @lacdirk  They didn't do out of benevolence either. Come back when you know what you're talking about because, right now, it's painfully obvious that you don't.

  11859.  @Jsameds  When you can't argue the point, just stick your fingers in your ears and insist like a toddler having a tantrum... that's your idea of common sense?

  11860.  @Jsameds  You can read back through the comments at your leisure.
    1
  11861. ​ @Jsameds  That's literally not what I said and you can fact-check that yourself. It also wasn't an argument but a question. And you didn't dismantle it so much as you contradicted yourself and then got confused.
    1
  11862.  @Jsameds  Sounds like you don't know what "literally" means or what a question mark is. And you're trying to be condescending?
    1
  11863. And we know why you're so obsessed with that.

  11871.  @stoicsceptic8420  I didn't claim not to know about any papers. What I did was ask you to specify some. Now I note that you haven't specified any. Instead you linked me a YouTube video by a guy who's known for giving misinformation. But you said there was a myriad of papers so I'm just wondering if you could specify 3 or 4.
    1
  11872.  @stoicsceptic8420  Yeah, sure.

    1
  11875.  @bobbun4369  You're not very good at this, Bob. You've really managed to prove OP's point twice over with your comments here, showing that you actually have no understanding of gender dysphoria, of being trans or even of critical thinking. Trolling people used to be a fun wind-up but it takes art. It's meant to make the other person look foolish, not yourself.
    1
  11876.  @bobbun4369  You already said that to someone else. Are you so lacking in imagination that you recycle insults which weren't even good to begin with? And I can't really address what you've said when you haven't really said anything other than contrarian statements of no substance.
    1
  11877.  @bobbun4369  Well, OP basically said that the anti-trans sentiment from the right is borne from "fear of the unknown". You went on to (hypocritically) confirm that you've never talked to a trans person about their "opposing view" to your own and are simply assuming their situation based on your own point of view. In doing so, showing that you really don't know anything about the topic, making trans people an "unknown" to you, thus proving OP's original point about "fear of the unknown".

  11905. Evidence?
    1
  11906. Communism isn't an ideology, it's an organisational structure for government that frequently collapses into Statism. Marxism is an ideology. I'd be curious what studies you refer to as "research" or the proof that prosperity is directly linked to the sole prevalence of one culture. And there's no ongoing cultural conflict such as you suggest. There's a lot wrong with your comment but those would be the primary points.

  11912.  @NeilCWCampbell  I've heard Brandreth talk at length about his notions of nationhood, he's right wing. And Geoff Norcott is definitely right wing, it's his entire angle. The only reason I can think of for why you wouldn't consider him right wing, is that he's not far right enough to qualify by your own standards. Is that a fair assessment?
    1
  11913.  @NeilCWCampbell  Says the guy that came in to argue my picks. And no, try again.
    1
  11914.  @NeilCWCampbell  Except you didn't do that, you came in with your "bridge to sell you" jibe. Nor did you elaborate on why Norcott isn't right wing. After that, I shouldn't be surprised that you didn't actually read the bit where I answered "no" to your question on whether I voted for Brexit. And what "reckoning"? If you're trying to sound ominous, I'd say you're being about as ominous as schoolkids playing hopscotch.

I'm sure you wouldn't oppose any other sufferers of a condition getting their best treatment, no matter how rare their condition, because that would just be cruel. That's all it comes down to.
    1
  11926.  @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. Because some parents don't accept their kids and it could lead to abuse. You've turned that into teachers brainwashing kids without their parents knowing, which is a Daily Mail boogeyman.

  11935.  @alexrz4196  You don't get it. Your eyes and ears aren't something that can be sourced, be verified, or trusted. It's anecdotal. Worthless. Plus, you've been lying through your teeth from the get-go. So why should I listen to you instead of scholars who have spent their lives studying and investigating matters like these? Don't answer. It's rhetorical. You've not got anything to add.

  11939. Better yet, if less of the public had fallen for Johnson's blatant lies and corruption in 2019 we might not be in such a serious mess. The Tories shouldn't be allowed to keep kicking the can down the road, we need leadership that's actually working to fix things rather than just cover their own arses.

  11941.  @GrahamYoung-oj8gh  How? Its not like I can post a screenshot. Are you denying that you said that? I notice you don't try and explain that it doesn't massively undermine your show of concern.
    1
  11942.  @GrahamYoung-oj8gh  Yeah, it's on an LBC short titled "Police should've kicked him in the head at the station", referencing the argument made by the caller. You said "Completely agree" and you posted the comment approximately a day ago. And this might blow your mind, but if someone glances at your profile on the YouTube app, it shows your comment history.

  11950. It's our business if Putin is able to show his supporters that he can take what he wants by force. Where do you think he'll stop? As for immigrants, our workforce is lacking so we need them to help prop up the economy. But it would be useful if our government stopped trying so hard to position them as a scapegoat.

  11953.  @clemalford9768  Oh, what a surprise. Putinist propaganda. You're too obvious.
    1
  11954.  @clemalford9768  Oh yeah, big time. Problem you've got is that you're used to fooling ignorant and gullible folk like yourself. But anyone who knows even a little bit about Ukrainian politics over the last few decades, anyone who's looked into Paul Manafort in particular, already knows enough to easily recognise the absolute nonsense you're pushing.

  11961. No.

  11962.  @RPAGN  Whats interesting, about this specific case, is that Farage promotes himself as being anti-establishment. That's certainly how his core followers among the general public see him. Yet he keeps showing that its just a front and that he's just as corrupt and self-serving as our "establishment" politicians.

    1
  11965.  @CaptainPlanetsBallBag  Conspiracy to defraud the United States; conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding; obstruction; and conspiracy against the right to vote and to have one's vote counted.

  11969.  @keibohow69  In short, it means being aware of social injustices. Braverman likes to deny such things. So no, you are not correct at all.

  11970. He wasn't reaching for the gun. You can see the video for yourself, so why are you saying he was?
    1
  11971.  @MikAlexander  Was he now? Two things. Firstly, where's this previous video showing that? Secondly, you've confirmed that the detained man was doing nothing at the time he was kicked in the face and thus the attack was unwarranted.
    1
  11972.  @MikAlexander  So you haven't seen any evidence for the claim that he was reaching for the gun? And police, especially armed police, need to be able to control their emotions or they aren't fit for the role.
    1
  11973.  @MikAlexander  No, that's why I'm asking if you've seen it and where I can view it for myself. I can only make a judgement based on the evidence presented. What we've seen is totally unnecessary and unwarranted violence on a man being detained. If there's other evidence that shines light on this situation, I want to see it. So I'll ask again, have you actually seen evidence of the claim regarding the man reaching for an officer's gun? Yes or no?

  11977.  @gridley  Yeah. And Hitler liked to beat his dogs because he thought it made him look cool. These two facts both exist, so what can we make of that? There is no actual evidence that he was gay. It all stems from an OSS report that is basically rubbish engineered to make Hitler look bad. Can you imagine that? That's how homophobic the US was generally at that time, that they felt the need to portray Hitler as gay to make him seem more of a wrong'un.

  11985.  @Dance_Fanatic  Do you know what the word "projection" means, in this context? If you want a sentence-by-sentence breakdown of how your original comment belies your bitterness... ask me at the weekend. Short version? After watching the video you didn't have a comment about the topic. No, the thing forefront in your mind was the bit where he "begs" for people to subscribe, that instead they should "whine" to YouTube for their system. Such disdain over something that truly doesn't matter. Such a desire to let everyone who never asked how intensely you feel about such a trivial thing. There's a bee under your bonnet. Paints a pretty clear picture. You can fool yourself, sure. Fooling other people? That's harder.

  12057.  @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.

  12058.  @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.

  12075.  @briantitchener4829  Yes, but we can accept the historical existence of someone called Jesus without accepting that it therefore follows he was the son of some deity. Just as we can accept the historical existence of really big reptiles that people romanticised into stories about dragons.
    1
  12076.  @briantitchener4829  Yes. Because there's a huge logical leap between "this man existed" and "he was the son of god". Mainly because no-one has ever managed to prove the existence of this god in any way.

The claim is based on a single page from the 20 page autopsy report that confirmed fentaynl and methamphetamine in his system but did NOT cite those as cause of death; the report confirmed he died of cardiopulmonary arrest. You're trying to use a lie to support a lie. Why?

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.

  12116.  @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.

The "original" argument you're trying to shift to isn't a good argument. What's the point, that you don't think trends in weather patterns prove anything? So yeah, I'd rather focus time and attention on the more obvious issue of your guy being a corporate shill. And save us wasting time debating the merits of his corporate shill work.

  12323.  @kmoses582  Because if you weren't ignorant, you wouldn't be here asking dumb questions. You'd know stuff. But you don't, so you are. And climate scientists have been trying to get our attention on this issue for over 30 years, so...

  12360. 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.

They also have a problem with copycat crimes, something that several experts have concluded is connected.

  12428.  @paulknox505  That's not what I said though. I said fighting with cops is far out. Politically, it's an extreme. If this was left-wing activists fighting with cops, they'd be far left. Social conservatism is right-wing, so right-wingers fighting with cops = far-right.

  12510. Not exactly. Prigozhin has challenged Putin's authority and seemingly been pardoned. If Putin gets rid of Shoigu too, that shows Prigozhin got what he wanted by threatening Putin without consequence. Putin isn't wielding ultimate power, it's tenuous.

  12525. I'm gonna get slightly political here but it's relevant. The lady said that animals (cats and dogs) not just getting on but developing such a strong bond should be an example for humans of how we can all get on. And she's absolutely right! Many people assume dogs and cats just can't get on, that a dog will always chase a cat and maybe worse, if it got the chance. But what we have seen, time and again, in Dodo videos is that when animals know that they don't have to compete for food, shelter, safety or love then they have no reason for any fear or hostility. This has been proven numerous times. So if we look at humans, all of our fear about matters like immigration and multiculturalism are driven largely by those concerns regarding competition. Fear that others coming in means that we have to go without, that we'll lose out. Cynical politicians use this to drive wedges between people and keep them distracted. But the truth is that we could make sure everyone is provided for. Make sure that no-one is missing out and what have people got to fight over? We could achieve this, if it wasn't for a tiny minority of people somehow amassing the vast majority of resources and insisting that it's fair...

  12628.  @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.

This is how come I know you haven't got a clue, that you're just too much of a coward to tell people why you really oppose drag.

He can't recognise hypocrisies in his own work (criticising Hitler and praising Trump for displaying the same traits), has blatantly lied to escape condemnation (responded to accusation of racism by saying that he can't be racist since he was an honorary member of a First Nation's tribe; he wasn't) and certainly doesn't live by the rules he establishes (it'd be a real stretch to say he's got his life together, yet he's previously stated that one cannot help others till they've fully realised themselves).

    1
  12751.  @vincekerrigan8300  Let me get this right, you think that "nature not nurture" is discredited. But you previously stated that crime is highly prevalent, inherent, in the black demographic. How do you explain that contradiction? Further to that, do you think the environment one lives in forms their "nature" or their "nurture"?

    1
  12761.  @rottenblaze6717  In the context of a war, we don't know what the worst is so how can we prepare for it? Are we building massive fallout shelters in population centres so that we can prepare for the worst? And no, if that was our concern then the conversation would be about military funding, military technology, military alliances etc. Not conscription, which is a panic move. Meanwhile, there are actual imminent issues we could be dealing with such as climate change but just aren't. So for all your pithy comments, we're actually sleepwalking into disaster but folks like you would rather talk about hypothetical wars. Why? What do you get from that?

  12769. "Thoughtful alternative" is a fun way to say "deluded nonsense". Russia has more neo-Nazis than Ukraine and Putin has wanted to take back the territory ever since they gained independence. But sure, ignore reality for the narrative pushed by Brand.

  12774.  @3rdeye931  I haven't gone deep into the work history of every CNN or MSNBC anchor but they do seem to have journalist credentials.

  12793. It is odd, whenever safety of women and children get brought up, that so little concern is given to the safety of women and children in other spheres. Look how long it's taken to get the Met to face up to how many rapists they protect. Or how even though so many people are aware now of the abuses committed against children by the Catholic Church, collectively as a society we seem so reticent to do anything about it. But trans people? Oh no, that's serious...

  12796. The Jewish flag? Or do you mean the Israeli flag? Really shouldn't conflate the two, chap.

They were perfectly safe, no-one gave them any grief.

    1
  12813.  @markjames2909  A decision made based around criminal allegations is in no way equivalent to a decision based on racism. Its pretty gross to suggest that. Are YouTube discriminating in their decision? Of course they are. Is that inherently wrong, immoral or illegal? Obviously not. Context is everything and this is not equal to discrimination based on inherent characteristics.
    1
  12814.  @markjames2909  No, that's not my argument. It only seems like that to you because your own argument is a massive inflation of the situation. No-one has shut down Brand's life or income. He is still a free man. He can still make money through a variety of means. His ability to create an income has not been taken away; only his ability to do so via YouTube ad monetisation. It's more akin to being fired, but not even that since he didn't actually work for them and his videos haven't been taken down. So the crux of my argument is, like it or not, a private business can discriminate in who they do business with on the basis of emerging or ongoing criminal investigations.
    1
  12815.  @markjames2909  Because its a straw man. Its not an argument I'm making. You're just trying to twist away from the actual matter 'cos you're running out of objections.
    1
  12816.  @markjames2909  It's absolutely a straw man if you're trying to force the argument you want rather than address the argument being made. But since you're so determined to focus on that point, yes. And it's not flawed logic. If someone is accused of financial crimes, should a financial institution not be allowed to make a business decision based upon that? Whether or not banks are ethical or should even exist, that's a different matter. But that's not the issue here.

You kept voting for Tories, a right wing party with a neoliberal free market approach. You feel like they've failed you, so now you're going to vote for an even more pro-business, free market party headed up by a former merchant banker and you think they're gonna help you. Why? 'Cos they said so? That's painfully naive. Sounds like you'd actually benefit from a left wing party in favour of worker's rights.
    1
  12824.  @andybarry5315  Okay... he's objectively not, for all his flaws. And I never said vote Labour, either. They're hardly a left wing party anymore. My point is that you're suffering as a result of right wing, free market leadership and your solution is to vote for a further right, more business oriented party that will only worsen your situation.

  12855. How? There's a massive leap in your logic there.
    1
  12856.  @rb1062  When you assert they've taken away his ability to make money. As if a company not only can't make decisions regarding their own business but also that said decision is then law. Can you walk into any business you like and demand they employ you? No, you can't. So the leap in your logic is that the decision of a private company is in some way a judgement by the legal system.
    1
  12857.  @rb1062  "I'm no fan of Brand" For a start, drop the act. Bored of hearing that pathetic line from those queuing up to defend him. To address your actual point... you're making leaps, again. YouTube are not an "authority" in the context you implied. Nor is this "punishment", its a response to events that can affect their business. Brand is free to take his business elsewhere. You're being rather childish about all this.

  12858. Who?
    1
  12859. ​ @clairee4939 The Troubles resulted from heavy handed imperialism and the Mccarthy witch hunts were anti-communist, so those are weird parallels for you to draw given the rest of your comment. It's also ironic that you're warning about the state having too much power while defending a prospective representative of the state for wanting to personally involve themselves in criminal prosecution...
    1
  12860. That's nonsense.

  12861.  @thesmallnotesduo  You sure you're the authority on this one?
    1
  12862.  @thesmallnotesduo  The climate scientist who isn't actually, uses a pseudonym, had to retract his piece claiming arctic ice wasn't receding and spoke at CPAC in 2017 when he claimed that coal was beautiful, clean and put out no visible pollution? That Tony Heller?
    1
  12863.  @thesmallnotesduo  Didn't retract his comments about coal, though, did he? Is that also 'cos he's a good, rational scientist? Or change the fact that none of his qualifications are in climate science...
    1
  12864.  @thesmallnotesduo  Often, mostly or always? Which one is it? Only one of those three can be true. And again, you're just glossing past the bit where he doesn't even seem to understand what coal is. Yet you want to take that person's view on pollutant levels and effects seriously? At best, he's a paid shill for the fossil fuel industry. Other explanations are that he's a moron.

    1
  12906.  @Jack-fs2im  Only 18million viewers from within the UK, though, which is less than a third of our population. Once you factor in people watching solely for the novelty before going back to their lives... its not really something to brag about. Oh, but the floods of tourists... who aren't British so their interest in pageantry really doesn't reflect on the relevance of the monarchy in Britain or whether Britain is a Christian country. I'd also point out that Christianity and human rights abuses go hand-in-hand whilst again reminding you that human rights only started gaining serious traction once we began adopting secularism. The more you go on about knowing little and listening only to one's own opinion, the more it seems like you're projecting.
    1
  12907.  @stewie7338  I'm not being dismissive of the enlightenment, I'm being dismissive of your claims. And yes, what values are they talking of? That's the point. Takes you a while to catch on, doesn't it.

  12934. ​ @jamespaul6315 Socialism and communism are notably different things. AND Stalin was also a monstrous authoritarian, little details... But on the ground, it was working class people (including many socialists from various places) that fought and defeated the Nazis. And the point of going through this now, you might understand if you actually listened to Ali... it's because our perception of Churchill is crafted and used by politicians as a form of emotional manipulation.
    1
  12935.  @jamespaul6315  To your first part, no-one said he did and, to your second part, whataboutism doesn't change the facts about Churchill.

    1
  12946.  @patsmith8035  But you DID assert that nurses don't care about their patients. A demonstrably false statement, based on biased anecdotal evidence.
    1
  12947.  @patsmith8035  Because anecdotal evidence is subjective and can't be measured. Saying that something is true solely in your experience means nothing of any substance. Don't be surprised when it's dismissed out of hand. And your statement is still not fact, it is just your opinion.

That said... while he's a PoS for doing it the way he did, he's not a total monster. I don't think so, anyway. It's hard to be sure, maybe I'm reading into it, but his body language seems reluctant.

  12972.  @davelee8107  He, with no actual authority, called for a second referendum. And it didn't happen, 'cos O'Brien hasn't got the power to make it happen. So it's not comparable to insisting that anyone with a dissenting opinion should be arrested. You can make whatever personal attacks you want, it doesn't change the fact that your whole stance is built on a hysterical and hyperbolic false equivalency.

  13000. That's not true. Communism is about abolition of private property and providing workers with ownership of the means of production. Private property is not the same as personal property. Personal is what's yours, what you own. Private property refers to corporate ownership. Means of production refers to the equipment and facilities that enable you to do your job. When core industry is privately owned, people are forced to be an employee of a company that profits off their labour while paying them a minimum wage. Because they cannot gain ownership of the means, they are only able to produce anything at the whims of the employer, despite being the ones with the expertise and putting in the labour of production. With that in mind, who's robbing who?

  13002. ​ @andrewcdavies21 So let's do nothing and see what happens, then?
    1
  13003.  @andrewcdavies21  Then maybe you haven't understood it. For example, a third of the planet's "greening" over the last couple decades are down to India and China's agricultural drives. China has also enacted a massive tree planting initiative. The problem, though, is that while rainforest and farmland appear identical to orbiting satellites measuring this increased "greening", it doesn't give us the whole picture. Agriculture and plantations are generally monocultures, which are bad for the soil and ecosystem. Also doesn't factor in the ecosystem destruction caused by agriculture, the water and chemical use that goes on. You're looking for simple answers to complicated problems.

  13004.  @eyezj7412  It was also a bad straw man.

  13010.  @chrisj9700  Is it £1tn or £1.7tn? And no, if you take our current cost of welfare and subtract that from your projected cost of UBI, the figure is gonna go down. And that's how much additional funding would be needed. So why don't you decide how much you want your projected cost to be first and start from there.

    1
  13023.  @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.

  13024.  @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.
    1
  13025.  @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
  13026.  @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.

They're designed for getting from A to B and our modern world couldn't function without that ability for conveyance. But they can be and often are lethal, when mishandled. So year on year, engineers are designing cars to be safer. Adding safety features, removing hazards. Rules around the use and operation of cars cars is strict. You have to go through tests and checks to demonstrate responsibility and understanding. Cars aren't weapons, they aren't designed to be weapons. So why are they more tightly regulated than a weapon, something with no purpose beyond taking a life? If I said take away the need for driving tests, would you think that's a good move?

  13171.  @neonovaC  You didn't give valuable advice. You gave me a lie. "Work hard and better yourself", I've watched people work hard and try to better themselves my entire life. All they get is exploited and ground down. Its also the response of a moron because they don't understand how a society functions. If people like me didn't work in warehouses, people like you wouldn't benefit from a company like Amazon. Because they wouldn't be able to function. If everyone took your "valuable advice" you'd be the first to cry about it, because no-one is doing the jobs you saw as below you. And you're continuing to lie. Without landlords, do you think the houses would just disappear? You're trying to suggest that we owe them, when in fact they are simply exploiting us by turning housing, an essential need, into a market that they've cornered. I'll be blunt, everything about how you're spinning yourself is a lie. Isn't it. You're not 30, you're not from a poor background, you've worked no harder than anyone else. It's all a lie. Because that's what you have to do to defend the indefensible. People like you make me sick.

Plus, telling people "you need to move" is the dumbest statement you could make in this debate. If people can barely afford to keep a roof over their head how the hell do you think they can afford to uproot their entire life and move to another region?

  13187.  @davidprosser457  I don't consider myself all that well-informed but I know the basics of what's going on. It started with Iran's morality police arresting a young woman for wearing her hijab "incorrectly". A few days later, she winds up dead in their custody. That kickstarted mass protests, as people there are sick of the way they rights are abused by their own government, who responded by having armed forces open fire on crowds of protestors, holding executions etc. We've got rising gun crime in the UK, sure. But we don't have government death squads driving around shooting people en masse.

I've lost track of the amount of people who claim that they care about treating others with respect, only to then voice their complete lack of respect and understanding for people different to them.

  13197. I like the idea of national service where its entirely divorced from the military. Instead, you spend a couple years taking on an important role in your community. Emergency services, civic administration, working the bins, park rangers, all that sort of thing. You get paid and you're getting experience. At the end of your service, if you want, you can stay on, get further training and you've got your career. But what everyone would get from this is a real sense of responsibility and appreciation for where they live and who they share it with.

  13198.  @RestlessBs3  Sounds like you slept through history class. I'm more amazed that you seem to think anyone chooses where, when and to who they're born. So it probably shouldn't surprise me that you're utterly pig ignorant of anything beyond that too.

    1
  13206. This is because criminal psychologists have long been advising news outlets (especially US ones, given all their shootings) not to show the killer, give their name or other such details on them. This is primarily to avoid unintentionally encouraging copycat crimes, it can also serve to reduce the likelihood of reprisals if the perpetrator is perceived as representing a specific community.

  13249.  @MrBluebirds22  A significant aspect of left-wing politics focuses on economic structure and empowerment of workers. Its thanks to left-wing unions and activists that we have weekends, sick pay, holidays, health and safety... pretty significant stuff for the working class.

    1
  13252.  @MrBluebirds22  Terrible example. Yes, politicians will happily pay themselves high wages. They'll happily shop government contracts out to their cronies. Classic corruption. It's the same in private companies. Those at the top like to pocket as much as possible. What they don't like is paying their workers a fair wage, which is why workers need to take action to get it. Like train drivers did.

    1
  13286.  @UNIVERSAL-UR  They have a point since his actions resulted in violence, an attack on a government building, someone died... that's all factual. So yeah, they enforced their rules in that regard. Don't get me wrong, the social media platforms are a cesspit when it comes to actual morals and taking action against hate groups. The amount of neo-Nazi groups that flourish on social media is worrying. And don't get me started on the bleach drinkers... But their lack of action in that regard doesn't mean their taking action in this case was unreasonable. Just means they know what to do and need to pull their finger out.
    1
  13287.  @UNIVERSAL-UR  There's a particular movement of people, following in the footsteps of "Reverend" Jim Humble who think drinking bleach water can cure anything. Got popular with some parents who believed it could "fix" their kid's autism by forcing them to drink it, needless to say its never gone well. But they operate in private groups on Facebook with nothing done to clamp down on the dangerous and harmful medical misinformation going around. Trump absolutely egged people on to storm the Capitol building, from the moment he lost the election he was using aggressive rhetoric to whip up his base. This escalated and escalated until he exorted them to move on the Capitol building. Did he plan all of it, did he want it to go down like it did? I don't know. Does he hold responsibility for it? Absolutely.

  13312. I don't know if that last bit is true. My hope is that Corbyn succeeded in inspiring more young people to pursue a new political path, to reject this political status quo we've been stuck in. More people like Mhari Black. Maybe you're right but I hope not, I hope we start seeing a lot MORE folks like Corbyn in politics.

  13313. Unlike you, the people calling the shots are at least mature adults who don't see the sense in holding on to grudges from previous generations, especially given the circumstances. It might just be that they also understand the distinction between the Soviet Union and Ukraine.

    1
  13317.  @harrycallahan1  But is there direct correlation? If what you're saying is true, then somewhere with a higher population will always have higher emissions than somewhere with a lower population. And the data simply does not support that. All humans consume but some consume much more than others. Does the couple living in a small one-bedroom flat, who don't own a telly or a car, consume as much as the couple who live in a three bedroom townhouse, have a telly in every room and own two cars?

    1
  13334. Fascism doesn't work when things are okay, because the general populace don't feel threatened. Once they do, because of bigger picture issues such as economic or environmental factors, the fascists begin to trick people into blaming an "other" for these bigger picture issues.

    1
  13380.  @paulpablo7810  Then you've got a very basic, limited understanding of what a security risk is. What she's done is flag up a "back door" into government IT systems. Using that, someone could wreak untold havoc not just on our nation, but on any we deal with. Infinitely more dangerous than the boogeyman migrant that you're so scared of.
    1
  13381.  @paulpablo7810  You can beg all you like, doesn't change anything. Do you understand what I mean by "back door"? It means that anyone wanting to hack into government systems can do so easier and leave far less of a digital fingerprint by compromising her personal devices, which is far easier in the first place. The fact you think this is all just "the wokes" tells me that you aren't thinking at all and just parroting the Tory "defence".

  13451.  @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
  13452.  @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
  13453.  @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.

So my sympathies go out to all Israelis who have lost friends and family in these attacks. And yet I cannot help feel an incredible blindness to irony, when I hear Jewish people speak of being scared, of feeling like their concerns aren't being considered... because we KNOW the history of this conflict isn't one-sided. And while I don't blame a population for the actions of its leadership, I can find some comments incredibly naive and really speaking to how sheltered the individual has been from the conflict. Here's hoping an end might be in sight, so all peoples can live in peace.

It's all a bit wonky 'cos then you've got Great Britain but then that's because it's derived from Greater. Greater and Lesser, which are still adjectives but those two have their own little rule for defining geographic locations.

  13503.  @soundseeker63  It's not a false comparison, it's simply identifying what we consider a 16yo mature enough to decide for themselves. If "some" 16yos aren't mature enough for that then the implication is that some are. Why, then, is that not the case for simply self-identifying (which is not the same as getting irreversible surgery). And as for joining the army being a career choice you can back out of, tell that to the parents of those who never came back. It's absolutely ridiculous to tell a 16yo that they can set themselves on a path that will lead to them potentially killing or being killed, but they can't set themselves on a path towards changes that'd potentially avert their suicide, thus saving their life.
    1
  13504.  @soundseeker63  You haven't even established that transitioning is irresponsible or wrong. Instead you're ducking with a weak "you wouldn't understand how complex this is" cop-out. Where are so many anti-trans folks so cowardly?
    1
  13505.  @soundseeker63  No, we're not gonna agree to disagree. That's what you say over something inconsequential like favourite cereal brand. We're talking about someone's right to exist and to express their existence without violating that right for anyone else. We can't move forward with a conflict of opinion. One side thinks the person has the right to exist and express themselves and the other side doesn't. They can't co-exist. Meanwhile, your entire argument, as much as you've made one, appears to hinge on the idea that 16yos aren't mature enough to make this decision for themselves. Despite how inconsistent that actually is with how our society treats 16yos. And you've really not addressed that beyond insisting "those aren't suitable comparisons". Not even realising that no, they aren't like-for-like. That's not the point. It's that we trust them to decide to kill or be killed but not to say he instead of she. Make that make sense. Or is it "too complex"? "The frequencies are too different" or some other asinine attempt to appear intelligent without displaying any? Ooo, or are you gonna try and pretend like you've gotten me all figured out again, like you did before when you were waaay off? Anything to avoid confronting your own prejudices, huh?

  13509. 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.

That's the thinking of someone who is, fundamentally, lacking in integrity. Maybe that's why you assume others are the same? You actually initially alleged that some of the stories were faked. You've back-pedalled rather considerably from that, another indicator that you're lacking integrity. Do you realise how sick and insulting that initial allegation was? Telling someone that terrible thing they went through? Yeah, faked. That's just an indicator that you suck at being a decent living being with empathy. I've got more evidence to allege that you're a shitty person than you have to allege that the Dodo fake their stories.

You could look into volunteering, a lot of people find self worth and social connections with kindred spirits through working for a good cause.

  13649.  @rinkydinkfretboard8737  Oh, what a surprise. "I could but I don't see the point". Never saw that one coming. So if the Tories saw JC as a gift, why did they work with the right-wing press to manufacture the anti-semitism scandal? Surely that would have been counter to what they wanted.

Put them at each end of the scale and then have everyone else fill in relative to how similar they are to the initial "baseline". The question is this; if there are only two genders, where do you put the dividing line?
    1
  13667.  @mogznwaz  No, that's called biology. Physical differences in how we're all put together. And yes, you're starting to get it. "Gender" starts to become pretty meaningless when you understand that.

  13668.  @marlonw5429  No point telling me I'm confused when you're demonstrating that you haven't understood at all. This isn't about "overlapping extremities", which is a bizarre concept that doesn't make any sense when talking about a sliding scale. The extremities can't overlap, they're at opposite ends. Its the middle band where things get less distinct.
    1
  13669.  @mogznwaz  Like I said, the stereotypes exist for many reasons, some of which are biological. And the reality is that there are a lot of people in this middle area of the spectrum that isn't clearly defined. That's really all there is to it.

  13694. The irony here is you don't realise that racially and gender motivated hires used to be far, far, FAR more common... in previous decades, when white males overwhelmingly got hired over anyone else. That wasn't about ability, that was about racism and sexism. So now that we're starting to put that behind us and opening up industries, it's kinda weird that you've missed what's happening.
    1
  13695.  @darkwoods1954  Because the people in positions of power were specifically racist and sexist. That was their mentality. Understand that, and you can understand why some corporations try to cultivate their public image by going the other way. And if you weren't so pathetically fragile you wouldn't be crying racism or sexism just because a non white male got cast in a show. Because if you think that's equal to the discrimination and abuses endured by other demographics in the past then you got other problems.

Rather than go after the actual source of CP images, rather than trying to catch it and even prevent it through greater social care and community awareness (which would mean them actually doing something) they just want to draft a lazy law that makes a show of dealing with the end result but does nothing to address the actual harm that's been caused.

  13774.  @richardeyes9099  "Former journalist", important detail. And you aren't in a position to say whether any of them are "genuine". You don't know. That's the purpose of processing the claim. To find out. Your weird statement about France doesn't prove your assertion, it proves your confusion. If the argument is that these people fear for their life in the homeland, what has France got to do with disproving that? You could argue why don't they settle there instead, that is at least a logical line to pursue.

  13775.  @richardeyes9099  He is a former journalist, meaning he used to work as a journalist and now he works doing other things. Hence why he doesn't do any journalism. This is pretty straightforward. Not sure how you know what he would describe himself as. As for your definition of asylum seeker, its false. You've added in this part about "first safe country", that is not part of the legal definition. Stop making stuff up because you can't be bothered to get informed.
    1
  13776.  @richardeyes9099  Go look up what a journalist does. He doesn't do any of that anymore, that's why he's described as a former journalist. Now go look up the meaning of "commentator". Someone who analyses and discusses topics. His topic is politics. He's a political commentator. Its not that deep. But hey, I can see that you like to pick and choose how you define terms so that they fit YOUR agenda. And I believe anyone should be able to claim asylum, whether they're in a hotel or not. And I believe that claim should then be processed to decide if its valid or not.

  13811.  @greatescape7735  I'm not. You're trying to make a value comparison between literary works and TV shows, then trying to apply it broadly on a class basis. Whereas the point O'Brien is making here, which I agree with, is that it's a form of snobbery/pride that creates societal divides which benefit no-one.

  13812.  @greatescape7735  It's an observation you can't evidence in any way, so it's just anecdotal. Not worth much, doesn't support anything meaningful. And no, I don't think you can make a comparison between LITERARY works and TV. Different mediums, for a start...

  13843.  @Toastrackman  I'm 33, thanks for the lazy ad-hominem. Did you seriously think that my profile picture was me? That would be a little tragic. They aren't making a bad situation worse, they're trying to stand up for working class people while our government tries to rob us blind and give what should be money for the national coffers to corporate interests. But hey, you keep being an apologist for a corrupt government. Just remember to say "thank you, daddy" when they're done.

  13844.  @Toastrackman  Rather proud to represent the 22+ year epic, about fighting slavery in all its forms, that is One Piece. If people think that makes a 10yo, that's their ignorance.

His manifesto clearly decries leftist ideologies and what he believes its primary drivers are. He describes it in terms antithetical to leftist views. If you want to label him, good luck. He renounces basically everyone.

    1
  13870.  @johnvaleanbaily246  You miss the point. Unless you're gonna provide a form of photo ID, then claiming that your username is also your real name means... nothing. We have no way of knowing whether you are who you say you are, so your identity is irrelevant. So yeah, there's nothing brave about what you're doing and nothing cowardly about people using pseudonyms.

They might push racist ideology and policies but they said they aren't racist so they're not." And what exactly is "woke media", in your eyes? Better yet, define what "woke" means to you. See if you can do it in such a way that doesn't make it painfully clear where YOU get all your views from?

  13886.  @stanleypines1026  You could point out the articles in which Biden comments on Truss, in which he doesn't mention "right wing". Just a thought. 'Cos yeah, I haven't seen him make that specific comment. I've seen him say that her move was a mistake and I've seen him decry her "trickle down" ideology. My point is, you're being a hypocrite and a bit of a worm, not to mention you're scrabbling to defend the indefensible with any little technicality.
    1
  13887.  @uemackay1592  Oh, I don't generally call people I don't know "racist". I called YOU racist because you said several racist things. Claiming that several prominent and known racist right-wingers aren't is also very suspect. See, unlike you, I'm basing my appraisal of you on the things you've actually said. Whereas you've based your appraisal of me on a straw-man that only exists in your head. But hey, that's just another common trait of a racist. Bonus points for also going full fascist with the whole "you should be removed from the internet" thing.
    1
  13888.  @uemackay1592  They haven't, actually. I can still see them and others clearly can as they've replied or "reacted" to them as well. So all that's happened is that you've flagged my comments 'cos they hurt your feelings and YouTube has hidden them so that you don't have to read any hard truths. But come on. You knew that's what had actually happened. Gives you a convenient excuse to delete your own comments, saving you the embarassment of anyone else seeing them. That line about your children was cringeworthy and incredibly transparent. So anyway, to sum up; your xenophobic, anti-immigration stance and reverence for known racist Nigel Farage does mark you as a racist. Your nationalist outlook and desire to silence people, as well as your clear support for literal fascist parties, marks you as a fascist.
    1
  13889.  @uemackay1592  That might be believable but, again, there's the fact that other people can still see, react and reply to them. It's just you. Here's a tip, when you're caught out on a lie, there's no point in keeping on telling the same lie. Have you not been paying attention to our politicians and how poorly it works for them?

I appreciate that's very hard to quantify but it does bear thinking about, if you're gonna use the cost saving argument.

  13959.  @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.

  14124.  @iannoble404  Again, you're running away from debate before we can really get into it because you're a lightweight. And you're scared of having your half-baked notions taken apart. Your logic here doesn't follow. You're saying that, as things stand, the house of lords can veto a law that the PM tries to get the monarch to sign off on. If the monarchy was abolished but the house of lords wasn't, there's still a power of veto on that law getting signed off. I don't know why you think abolishing the monarchy means abolishing all concepts of checks and balances with it.

When MPs have broken the rules they themselves set and enforced upon us, was that not out of line? When MPs are found to have colluded with foreign agents and compromised our ability to act on the global stage, that's all fine? Fact is, the monarchy is a redundant waste of space. None of the royals will act on these things because that would rock the boat and they quite like the wealth and privilege granted them by the status quo. A status quo established off the pain, suffering and exploitation of numerous countries around the world. Their realistic power is absolutely nil, they've never used their influence for championing positive causes and they've got enough skeletons in their closet to turn Buckingham Palace into a castle of bones. Now is the time to discuss abolishing the monarchy.

If he wanted to say he loves all the people regardless of boundaries, he could have literally said that.

  14207.  @RonJon100  Sounds more like you're desperately searching for some kind of justification or defense for him. Thinking critically, here's a guy who's been spouting anti-semitic viewpoints for a while, now he's hanging out with Nick Fuentes of all people and stating that he likes Hitler and doesn't want to think of the Nazis as evil. At best, he's mentally snapped and is being manipulated. At the very best. What other perspectives do you think there are?

So now you're saying what, that someone DID drug Kanye and made him say all this crazy stuff? That's ridiculous, you might as well say that maybe Kanye was abducted by aliens who made him say it. You've got just as much evidence of that being the case, which is to say none. All of this to avoid acknowledging what's right before your eyes.
    1
  14210.  @RonJon100  I'm begging you, am I? There's an enormous logical leap between his trainer threatening to drug him and Kanye actually having been drugged to promote Nazism on Alex Jones show.

  14273.  @babs_babs  I'm going off your own words and your bizarre argument for why it's not brain chemistry that's based on... speculation over pornography stats. Once again, the only straw man here is one you've built. I'm just pointing it out to you.

    1
  14276.  @babs_babs  Which is more than can be said for your logic, assumptions based upon the stats of a porn website. Your reasoning was, frankly, kinda transphobic too. Its the same as saying most homophobes are closeted homosexuals. What you're doing is making out that the problem is mostly ashamed trans people, or at least trans-attracted people fetishising their identity.

  14280. The police said, initially, that they weren't treating it as a terror incident. Which isn't the same as saying its definitively not terror related. It just means, at that time, they had no evidence suggesting it was.

  14282.  @ricardocabeza6006  Pretty sure it puts the age restriction at 18. It also includes an exception that allows for doctors to perform unnecessary surgery on intersex minors without their consent. So why can others make that decision for an intersex child, potentially an infant, but a 17 year old isn't allowed to decide something for themselves? Sounds like it's about targeting trans folk, rather than protecting children.

  14310.  @ayoolukoga9829  That's not proof of everything. I could write a diary entry saying that everyday of that week I had used prayer to directly influence the weather. Does that mean its true? The only "evidence" you can provide requires the reader to already accept the conclusion.

  14360.  @andybeans5790  Respectfully, I think that's a flawed definition of extremism. For example, a lot of people who would define themselves as anarchists have views on the restructuring of society that is needed to ensure human wellbeing in the future. Their views are certainly extreme but hardly harmful... unless you benefit from exploitation, I guess. But by conflating extreme and harmful, it makes it very easy for biased media interests to spin these people as being equally, if not more dangerous, than those whose actual goal is to harm people.

  14376.  @rodneyhenchliffe754  Yes, you did. "Simply advocating/or being instrumental in growing the inequality gap, which equates to manufacturing poverty for working people and the vulnerable, means progressively that ordinary people won't be able to afford housing, then cars, then heating and food." Either you're lying about what you said, which would be really dumb since there's a written record of it, or you don't understand what you said... which I could believe, I've talked to conspiracy nuts before... but that's even dumber. Which is it?

    1
  14379.  @rodneyhenchliffe754   It failed because you're a moron who strings words together ad hoc and thinks it makes a coherent sentence. In your original rant about globalists you asserted that they wanted to advocate to increase the wealth inequality gap, thus manufacturing poverty. Since then, you just keep insisting that's not what you said. That's why you're either a liar or an idiot who doesn't know what they're saying. Or quite probably both.

Be realistic or its hard to take you seriously. Secondly, are you even bothering to listen to the climate scientists who've devoted their lives to studying this? They understand it well but they keep being ignored because people would rather make exaggerated and ridiculous criticisms of the issue.

  14428. @Rachel Wood Where are you getting the idea that we don't have enough resources to implement renewable sources? That's a new one, never heard that excuse before. But ultimately, all you're saying is we HAVE to use fossil fuels or else we die. Ignoring the continued hyperbole there, the alternative is wiping ourselves out by poisoning our ecosystem. So let's assume for a second that you're not talking nonsense, if the choice is between increased hardship but continued existence OR guaranteed extinction... I'll go with the former.

  14430.  @philipmichael4106  If it gets warmer we also get more droughts, more land becomes arid and no longer arable. Fossil fuels aren't trapping current CO2 levels. It's ancient, it's from over a million years ago. Burning it up and releasing all that stored CO2 into the atmosphere is more than the ecosystem can handle.

The fossil fuel industries have paid Heartland a lot of money, for figures like Christy and Moore to produce studies downplaying the severity of the situation, so that fossil fuel industries can continue plying their trade and getting government subsidies. Short answer, you've been conned.

  14441.  @philipmichael4106  "Marxist propaganda". At this point I definitely can't take you seriously, and that's saying something. You're too cowardly to address the fact that these men are working for the Heartland Institute and that this is an organisation with a long history of using faux-science to push corporate agendas. And now you're throwing out the "but Marxists" line which is pretty laughable because it's always done by people who definitely don't know what Marxism really is. Just makes you sound like some hysterical McCarthy-era loon, all worked up by the red scare.
    1
  14442.  @philipmichael4106  That's a lie, Happer is not a climate scientist. He had no formal training in the field. Points for finding someone who hasn't worked for the Heartland Institute but this is also the guy who, in 2015, believed he was writing an anti-climate change piece for a Middle Eastern oil company (it was actually a Greenpeace sting) and later worked for the Trump administration, probably the most anti-intellectual government that the US has ever had, and resigned because even his ideas were too wacky to swallow. His opinion pieces and papers on climate change have been widely decried by the scientific community and don't seem to have passed peer-review for scientific integrity in writing. So... eminent? Not even a little.

  14443.  @philipmichael4106  What a compelling argument...

  14444.  @philipmichael4106  The UN leaders are Marxist? I'm pretty sure at this point that you've got no dealings whatsoever with facts. You're spinning false narratives based on your personal fantasy. You've absolutely refused to acknowledge that the scientists you champion either work for a fossil fuel lobbyist or aren't actually climate scientists... And now here you are literally ranting about how the communist/marxist (because they're exactly the same, right) boogeyman is everywhere. I don't know how you manage to keep being so wrong with everything you say. That takes work.

  14446.  @philipmichael4106  You've failed to apply critical thinking in regards to the "droves" (3 YT vids) you've sent me. You still fail to acknowledge that a scientist paid by corporate interests to make a case in favour of their business should be something to scrutinise. As for "I could send you my research but I won't"... I'll tell you what, I won't mince my words. You're lying, you have nothing. If you did, you'd use it. Instead, you cry about my biases as an excuse for not having any serious argument whatsoever.

  14450.  @philipmichael4106  You started this by citing your religion and you blindly cling to the few scientists you can find who support your beliefs, despite the fact I've explained to you several times now that they have been bought and paid for by the fossil fuel industry. The activities of the Heartland Institute is well documented. Yet I'm the one blinded by ideology?

  14453.  @philipmichael4106  Arguing "but the economy" at the cost of human habitation is not just shooting yourself in the foot, its amputating the foot and using it to beat yourself to death with.

  14454.  @philipmichael4106  Coming from the religious person who thinks we should be burning more fossil fuels 'cos its supposedly good for the planet, that doesn't mean anything. That's the problem with your economic argument, its the same principle as when you said a warmer planet means higher crop yields. You're not taking into account all of the negative effects that would far outweigh any gains. Its like saying a lower population would help because then we'd consume less resources. That's true but what it doesn't account for is the greatly reduced labour force to generate the amount of resources that we would still need. Yes, moving away from fossil fuels would have a negative impact on the economy, mostly in terms of fossil fuel profits (hence why the industry are paying Heartland Institute to try and persuade people to keep burning coal), but the upside is sustainability. We'd stand a better chance of maintaining an ecosystem that can support life. Because if we CAN'T do that, the economy is gonna have much bigger problems to worry about.

Hell, at several points the US has had sizeable organisations of literal Nazis. They once had a rally in Madison Square Garden. And for all your praise of Trump, you're still missing the fact that he's a charlatan and a fraud. For someone who claims everyone he doesn't like is fake, classic fascist move by the way, he's not at all the person he claims to be.

  14459.  @hof5943  Oh shit, you actually believe in the American Dream concept? No wonder you fell for Trump's bullshit then. You're making a lot of assumptions about who I trust. I just think it's laughable that some people are both thoroughly disenfranchised by politics, which is fair, while also politically ignorant enough to see Trump and think he's anything but a grifter trying to make as much money as he can. The guy is a clear piece of shit but you back him. You wanna talk about Trump Derangement Syndrome, I think you should be considering Trump Delusion Syndrome. The man is a total fraud.

    1
  14467.  @Thomas-n1n4o  Caller alludes to people's concerns about immigration but you only get that via context. She never actually holds it up as her concern or elaborates on what why it's a concern. This is important, because even a "genuine" concern can be built upon a falsehood. And you're gonna have to give me a timestamp for when the presenter tells her that they are imagined concerns, 'cos I've listened through twice now and I must keep missing that part.
    1
  14468.  @Thomas-n1n4o  Can I get that timestamp for when the presenter tells her that her concerns are imagined?

    1
  14470.  @Thomas-n1n4o  Its a 4 min clip, chap. If he said what you claimed he said, it'd be easy to show that. So that's a poor excuse. And what we get down to is this; you lied. And its very ironic that you lied about what the presenter did in order to claim that he was "gaslighting" her. Oh, but it's your "perception" that he was gaslighting her? That's meaningless, you need to be able to evidence it, otherwise its literally all in your head. But let's be clear; disagreeing that a majority of people share her concerns is not gaslighting. Pointing out how her claim of a majority is false, that's not gaslighting. That's called getting the facts straight. So try again. With facts.
    1
  14471.  @Thomas-n1n4o  No, you haven't demonstrated it. As you said, you perceived it. Openly debating the reality of an issue with someone isn't gaslighting.

  14498. The thing about this shouldn't necessarily be "can Musk do this", its not as if our other political parties don't take donations in exchange for political favours.

If he accepts this, it further reinforces that fact.

  14607.  @Cosmic-Spanner  But you're saying it's only when trans people become visible in society that the problems arose. Ergo, as long as people could IGNORE trans people and pretend they didn't exist, there weren't problems. So... I'm not wrong them, am I. That IS what you're saying.

    1
  14643.  @davidthomas3826  You're making very broad and inaccurate generalisations about people's views and values based on your perception of social class. If you were right, we'd both be in agreement since we're both working class. But I think you're completely wrong. So we disagree that people from the same (very poorly defined) demographic will commonly share beliefs and values.
    1
  14644.  @davidthomas3826  No, we don't. You're just declaring opinions as facts. And you can do one with the condescending "consider yourself working class". I work long physical weeks breaking my body, making just enough to keep my little council estate flat. You might think you're some kind of arbiter on what traditional British working class values are but you're not. You're just a loud mouth who doesn't get out enough.

Britain's proudest achievements have come in the form of socialist programs so moving further in that direction might not be so bad. Couldn't be worse than this libertarian free-market thinking that the Tories worship.

I'll concede that. But what is he doing THERE? He wasn't driving the trucks, he wasn't taking them a big cheque.

There's actually four years of performance history you can use for comparison. Another is the idea that firing a bunch of staff from oversight positions, only for that industry to promptly suffer two significant catastrophes back-to-back, could definitely be seen as poor judgment and performance in a management position... But mostly, it's the fact you can't seem to grasp which is that you don't run countries like businesses. Because a business is managing profits but a country is managing people and their lives. If you run a country with a profit motive, you get a broken society in short order.

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.

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.

And yeah, you're weak. Because you rely on misinformation and lies, when you're challenged on them you have nothing but personal attacks. If Trump has indeed won this election its got nothing to do with the strength of his policy and everything to do with lack of education, unwarranted pride and pettiness of his supporters. Which you're demonstrating. And it's weak because it crumples the second you're out from behind your keyboard. Which, like I said, is gonna get demonstrated over the next four years.

  14943.  @flabbybum9562  So your issue is in treating a victim like a victim?

    1
  14945.  @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.

  14947.  @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
  14948.  @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...

  14971. @ZachJonySmith  He didn't grow up in poverty, that's just him trying to mythologise about his origins. He grew up in the Ohio suburbs, his family were all homeowners, his grandfather had Armco stocks and a lucrative pension. He did not grow up poor.
    1
  14972.  @mouffon  Maybe. I don't know enough about his family BUT I do know that he wasn't living in poverty. You've been quick to try and move past your lie there, haven't you. What's also interesting is noting how he actually benefitted from a lot of the welfare and social support he now campaigns against.
    1
  14973.  @mouffon  Like I said, maybe. There's also other reasons someone might be pushed through, such as ideological leanings. I'm more interested in how you're trying to worm your way out of acknowledging that you lied...
    1
  14974. @ZachJonySmith  No, you didn't. You weakly claimed it and then tried to move on. His family never faced fear of losing home, they never went hungry, nor did they have to get by without water, heating or power. They weren't living in poverty by any metric. This desperate need to pretend he is, whilst he supports cutting support for people ACTUALLY living in poverty, is really gross. What's hilarious is your assertion that someone can have "no real life experience" for being unsure whether or not he had family connections that could've eased his time through higher education. That's just a ridiculous statement. You're rubbish at this "honesty" thing, aren't you.
    1
  14975. @ZachJonySmith  You're sure adding a lot of your own flair to a very simple statement I made in order to discredit it. And yeah, there are levels of poverty. Poverty in India is different than poverty in the UK, for example. Doesn't change the fact that Vance didn't grow up in poverty. When you have to consistently lie to try and prove your point, you don't have one.
    1
  14976. @ZachJonySmith  I'm triggered? Like you don't keep dancing back here to justify yourself? And my initial statement suggested just some of the ways someone can come through an educational institute that aren't based on their own merit. You've focused in on that are are now adding details I never suggested. You just can't help yourself.
    1
  14977.  @mouffon  What details? You've mostly just made weak ad hominems. And the fact you have to lie to defend him says it all. That you're also trying to act so above it all while displaying the same behaviour is just icing.

But you're trying to justify yourself and it's tragic.

The people involved are always pushing for further understanding which can mean reevaluating work and updating when new information comes to light.

How convenient...

All about the science when you thought it served you, now you're just spinning a fantasy based on ancedotes and your predictions of the future, which unsurprisingly sounds like the same stock complaints ignorant people have always had with this issue. And you've got the temerity to tell me that I'm too proud to notice I've been tricked? Take a long look in your mirror.

  15005.  @sasa1982uk  How simple are you? Read the article. The X axis was mislabelled. So it was wrong back in '97. They noticed the error in 2010 after climate deniers started using it as evidence to support their argument. Stop being too proud. Accept you got got it wrong.

You're only speculating, and not very realistically. And it's not as if we don't already have such processes in place for other charges, don't act like we'd need to reinvent the wheel. And the constant onward march of AI potentially gives us a highly efficient, cost-saving way to automate much of it. I don't care what careers you claim to have. That's all anecdotal. Speaking of which, I've encountered a fair few folk on your side of the aisle who claim experience in whatever field necessary to try and give their argument weight, even if it means contradicting what they said a day before. And, like I said, not taking you seriously. Also, imagine seeing Robin Hood as a bad thing in this. Redistribution of wealth is moral.

  15066.  @MrHowardMoon  So a serious crime was committed but there's no police report, no local news pieces about it... nothing but a Facebook post. Yes, Facebook, that reliable bastion of reality, plus hearsay and anecdotal "evidence". Think about it, you utter melt.

  15080. It's sickening that you're more disgusted by drag queens than by the Nazis protesting against them. Why don't you invite the latter over to Uganda, you'd have so much in common. I'm sure you wouldn't find anything objectionable about each other...

  15083. Well behaved protest doesn't do much, actually. Its easy to ignore well behaved protestors who do as they're told. It's interesting that you obviously feel capable of deciding what a British patriot is but then don't want UKIP having a voice. You're getting closer to realising what an empty label "patriot" is.

  15084.  @v3numgough465  Ah, Ghandi and MLK. Two unassailable arguments. Because MLK wasn't assassinated and race relations in the US are now perfect. You might wanna look at what happened NEXT in Indian history as well.

For all we know, maybe the first family suffered severe destitution and wanted the best for him? It's still heartbreaking to see him looking so dejected and sad in the shelter, to see him shaking in his pen like that. All we know is that, regardless of the circumstances that led him to be there, it's resulted in him finding a perfect home that will hopefully be his for the rest of his life. So while it is heartbreaking, in a way it's the best thing that could've happened.

  15110. Your allegation about Democrat support is incredibly vague. What's your evidence for the claim? Also, Trump wasn't a good businessman. That's why he had to falsify business records and find income streams through other ventures. Your comment really seems incongruous with reality.

  15123.  @roni2977  So let me get this straight... you think that burning coal and oil isn't having a negative impact on climate. But you have no problem believing that humans are manipulating the climate? Through what means, magic crystals?
    1
  15124.  @roni2977  All that tells me is you can't explain what you believe. Like religion, it requires faith.
    1
  15125.  @roni2977  I think you have no idea what you're on about. Especially since you don't seem to realise the contradiction of thinking man-made climate change isn't real unless its a conspiracy theory.
    1
  15126.  @roni2977  So how come you think that burning coal and oil can't affect climate change?
    1
  15127.  @roni2977  I'm trying to understand where you're coming from. You're making two deeply contradictory statements and I want to know what the thinking behind them is.

  15129.  @roni2977  How can I be in denial of an answer you won't give?
    1
  15130.  @roni2977  So your whole stance here is "agree with me and we can talk"? I'm not wasting my time with any looney notions suggested by someone who can't explain why they believe in human climate manipulation but they don't believe in human induced climate change from burning fossil fuels.

  15146. ​ @Alien1375 And what percentage voted for Wilder?
    1
  15147. I think it's in part due to politicians and celebrities treating the poppy like some kind of point-scoring act. Truth is, wearing a poppy doesn't actually mean anything in itself; it's a performative act, anyone can put on a poppy and earn the social points, doesn't mean a thing if they still support ongoing conflict.

  15162.  @Rivodus  Your broad generalisations aren't supported by facts. How many sexual abuse cases are committed by people born here? What if your neighbour is Jimmy Saville?

  15166. Have they, though? 2008 was a global banking crisis, caused by reckless behaviour from the US. Gordon Brown helped us avoid turning into Greece and going bankrupt by selling our gold reserves. He's seen as something of a saviour outside of the UK for helping stabilise the chaos. But the Tories slandered him and made out like it was mismanagement on his part and we got Cameron. Compare that to Truss completely and wilfully tanking our economy and its really not the same thing at all.
    1
  15167.  @HALFTONE44  No.
    1
  15168.  @HALFTONE44  Yeah, Brown got hammered by the press at the time for it and he did apologise for not tightening regulations. But have you actually read the articles instead of just headlines? The deregulation of the banks was not done under his government. Guess which government did it?
