forkboy84 posted:https://twitter.com/LBC/status/1063033473886236672 Oh gently caress off. John Smith leave voter lives/lived in a bubble of selective/targeted media. It's like telling someone dying of lung cancer that "We did tell you smoking was bad!". Even if it's right it's not the loving point at this stage. The expectation that the average joe should be an expert on all these matters is loving bizarre. Reset your worldview to the real world my dude. If that was the case we wouldn't need politicians or a civil service. Rakosi fucked around with this message at 13:57 on Nov 15, 2018 |

Zalakwe posted:Disagree. If folk feel like that we should forgive and welcome them. It's not us vs. them, far too many of them are just us who haven't realised it. We should absolutely welcome folks who've realised they made a mistake, but we shouldn't coddle them by telling them it's not their fault. It's time for them to work to make things right.

Rarity posted:Oh gently caress off with your one party state descending into full scale fascism. The Democrats will not save you. I mean, yeah. They are about as weak as can possibly be and a big change in party leadership is needed. Democrats have the same issue where the leaders are mainly rich white people just like the Republicans.

In a few years Great Britain is going to be so economically damaged there will be no easy recovery.

Wanna bet JRM held off sending in his letter until he knew there were 47 in just so he could make the big dramatic gesture (and also because he's a loving weasel who didn't want to commit until he knew it would go through)
