A bunch of idiots unconnected with the Labour party posting crap on twitter is front page evidence that Corbyn hates Jews.

Crap on Twitter Corbyn protested by saying it was the job of the press to investigate politicians, even.

Batman's a fascist who supports the pathologising of criminality and does nothing to address the root causes of crime while simultaneously exploiting the labour of all those who work for Wayne Industries. Your media choice is problematic. Have a nice day.

As batman he arrests the criminals, as Bruce Wayne he attempts to do philanthropy to address the root causes of crime. It's very nuanced.

If he wanted to do his best he could cooperativise Wayne Industries and use the capital to create workers militia to patrol the streets of Gotham. Empower the people to protect themselves, while also giving them the means for a better life and to escape the cycle of poverty and crime.

I feel like we're entering the 'inane screaming' phase of pre-election press, where nearly every front page is a damning indictment of Labour every day from now until the election. I mean even the independent has Corbyn's fluffed interview as front page news, and after their take on the debate it's pretty clear the Guardian isn't going to be helpful.

I'm honestly very surprised that a selfish rich gently caress like this would actually deign to appear in public, his kind is usually more akin to ghosts.

I'd bet a grand that he's just started the game of donating his way into political power.

I went to look up the definition of "small business" and I kind of get the impression loving anything can be a small business since you need less than 500 employees and less than 25million in turnover.

I dunno what the turnover to assets ratio is but I'd assume a business with a net worth of a mil isn't going to have over 25 million turnover.

People keep forgetting that he does donate lots of money to social causes and one of the reasons he doesn't kill is that he does, in fact, respect due process - even when due process can't keep the joker locked away more than a month.

Turns out philanthropy isn't effective. Maybe if he convinced his friend Harvey to run his mayoral campaign on increasing social welfare and not being tough on crime I'd see it as anything other than a vanity donation.
