If you can't understand why people are more scared of the deliberate, indiscriminate acts of others rather than accidents you are either 12 or autistic.

^^^That's still no scarier than David Camerons views on society: Pochoclo posted:So uh, what exactly does this mean? Police raiding mosques? May sides with the alt-right and wants to end all non-government moderation on websites. But yeah, also clearly she wants more powers to enter and close places as she sees fit. JOHNSON COCKSLAP posted:If you can't understand why people are more scared of the deliberate, indiscriminate acts of others rather than accidents you are either 12 or autistic. The idea of someone out there planning to hurt you is scary but being more scared of that than the multitude of random stuff that is more likely to actually hurt you isn't rational, if you're just scared of being hurt. namesake fucked around with this message at 12:49 on Jun 4, 2017 |

Angepain posted:I didn't think accidental poisoning would be such an issue. What's the cause of that, substance abuse? Not cooking your meat properly? Drug overdose mostly. American numbers have it as 96% of accidental poisonings. I'd imagine the distinction between that and suicide is pretty blurry though.

JOHNSON COCKSLAP posted:If you can't understand why people are more scared of the deliberate, indiscriminate acts of others rather than accidents you are either 12 or autistic. I can understand it but that doesn't make it rational. And considering the reaction to that fear is usually grossly disproportionate & often discriminatory I certainly don't think we should indulge it. But sure, use autism like it's a slur you bellend.

jabby posted:Mays speech is littered with dogwhistle Islamophobia to boot. The only ones that spring to mind are the legal contrasts with the continent such as Blackstone's formulation of "it is better that ten guilty persons escape than that one innocent suffer" compared with Bismarck (and later Wolfgang Schäuble) stating the inverse, and a preference for analytic philosophy over structuralist and post-structuralist philosophy, but it's clear that May herself isn't a true believer in either.

Instead of, you know, the terrorists having guns and the casualty list being 10 times worse

I've never understood the "time to pull the gloves off/stop tolerating this" rhetoric may is now using but also leaks into the thread after these attacks from whichever racist subforum those posters come from. We already wage war around the world against them, we already spy on basically every mosque, we already require teachers to dob in Muslim infants if they draw a gun and if someone looks like they're gonna do a terror we arrest/shoot them and all their mates. The only thing left is camps or genocide realistically speaking and as much as it's tempting to go "hurr that's what they want" I think the people saying that are just ignorant rather than that lovely enough to want that.

"british values" talk is not the most obnoxious way the multiculturalism debate could have evolved, really. remember the multiculturalism debate? that used to be a thing, y'know. rather than sneering it would be an opportune time to make sure that something of postwar socialism - of which Britain has been enormously influential in across the world, especially in its numerous Fabian-influenced post-colonial governments - is reflected in it ronya fucked around with this message at 13:02 on Jun 4, 2017 |
