Bobby Deluxe posted:Hadn't seen this discussed much in thread: I believe that that this is the thing where the government has been talking about "legal differences of opinion"; apparently it's somewhat likely that if Boris did this it would end up back in court and he would lose since he's clearly trying to frustrate the actual objective of the legislation in spite of also doing everything it asks. Also there doesn't seem to be any reason why the EU has to treat a second letter with equal weight to the first; unless it actually says "we're withdrawing our request to extend" then they can just say "fine you request an extension, but you don't want it, here's an offer anyway" My take on this is that it's more playing to the gammon vote and "waah parliament is mean and won't let me gently caress the country (in this one specific way)" than actually finding a way to no deal directly.

Obviously abandoning them like Trump did is going to lead to a massacre/humanitarian crisis, but staying in the region as a permanent peacekeeping force is hardly going to work. Threaten Turkey with something unless they find a political solution? What's the best answer? The Kurds have wanted to negotiate with Assad for a long time because of this eventuality but the us have refused to allow them while giving support. They're doing it now and it's probably too late but the control a lot of Syria's oil production

They will do no such thing of course, because it's antithetical to the idea of the nation-state and Western nation-states would rather see a thousand genocides than that (as long as they're not genocides of white people).

Threaten Turkey with something unless they find a political solution? What's the best answer? The same thing that prevented this happening until now; their military kit is all US supplied, so publicly call for a ceasefire and cut off their access to spares/support etc. Turkey is a serious industrial power so this is harder than somewhere like Saudi Arabia which is literally just the thinnest Arabic puppet over US interests but they'd still get the message fast. The calculus is simple tho, NATO needs Turkey, Turkey hates the Kurds; as soon as the US needs something from Turkey goodbye Kurds. The US doesn't keep stabbing them in the back accidentally; they need to temporarily build them up to have something to trade later. It's British Imperialism 101.

I really liked it when Emmeline Pankhurst sat on top of a chair and told everyone how much she loves the police. I loved it when Martin Luther King told everyone to just chill out as people were doing there jobs. It was cool when Ghandi didn't want to inconvenience anyone so let the British know exactly what he was thinking and where he'd be. It was really understanding for workers to say, hey, my child needs to earn a living to, don't want to cause a nuisance to anyone. Change isn't fought for, it's carefully negotiated.

Went to see the joker last night and for all the controversy it was actually really good. A bunch of people argued that it's an incel film that legitimises the violent outbursts of mediocre white men but having seen it you'd have to be an idiot to read it like that (or a centrist, in case there's a difference)

Jaeluni Asjil posted:Surprising article in well-known capital-worshipping rag: This is just recycling but rebranded with "no we really mean it this time, honest". And the version of recycling that's compatible with capitalism isn't really compatible with environmentalism imo, incentives to good behaviour that appeal to greed don't work because it's always easier for humans to game/cheat a human-designed rules system than to innovate their way to a practical solution*. Capitalism is the problem, and is not worth saving or attempting to work with. From last page, here's a perfect example: Comrade Fakename posted:It’s US news, but here’s a fun thread on the incredible benefits of a privatised electricity grid: *tangentially, but worth mentioning: this is distinct from arguments about benefit cheats gaming government support, because those are relatively tiny amounts of money aimed at all people, whereas green subsidies are industrial scale quantities of cash specifically aimed at greedy capitalists, ie people who the system itself acknowledges are by definition predisposed towards seeking preposterous amounts of money for as little work as possible
