TheRat posted:I see Rachel Riley and her friends have found a new message delivery system Yeah I was thinking something similar earlier but refrained from rage posting it. Of course this is on the guardian and BBC Live blogs. Of course all the protests when Boris showed up at places never were. Let's just highlight the one print journalist posting his social media hot take about a single suspiciously well funded poster van rather than https://twitter.com/BorisJohnson_MP/status/1198642020669181955?s=19 Or https://twitter.com/ToryFibs/status/1199042993841483776?s=19 E: Or https://twitter.com/LabourByTheMany/status/1197931741538861062?s=19 Or https://twitter.com/JewsAgainstBoJo/status/1199103817499004940?s=19 RockyB fucked around with this message at 13:26 on Nov 26, 2019 |

The one silver lining is that watching these losers melt the gently caress down when Corbyn becomes PM and doesn't immediately do a genocide is going to be so, so satisfying.

As I note there are some gamers ITT, this may be of interest: https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/gaming/man-bought-video-game-character-million-sold-friend-china-a9217206.html quote:A man in China who spent more than £1 million on a video game character has sued his friend for selling it for less than £500.

The thing about all this lying poo poo that really gets me is that if/when it all fails and Corbyn does win, what are the chances of there actually being a reckoning? I know if I was in his shoes a whole shitload of people would be getting arrested for misleading the public, and a whole load of media companies/outlets would just be straight up shut down and their directors punished. Except he’s not going to do that, obviously. He’s too good a person. Which means these worthless cunts will he allowed to continue to spew their poison into the nation’s mind. Which of course they’ll take as a sign of weakness.

There is absolutely no way you can or should punish people speaking up about antisemitism (or racism or homophobia or etc.), no matter how bad faith it is. This is a terrible loving idea.

You could make being a tory and/or journalist illegal and that'd achieve mostly the same effect but I dunno if that's practical.

This is a terrible loving idea. I’m more referring to the broad scale assault of the media classes here than the specific example of antisemitism. However when such things are provably in bad faith then I beg to differ- in the same way that if I (As your local media baron for this example) were to take out blanket coverage falsely accusing someone of any crime. Yes, we have libel laws but those seem somehow insufficient in circumstances like this.

A couple of days I ago I posted about that theatre show in Marylebone where attendees are planning to burn money to prove that it's a "neutral utilitarian systemic infrastructure" or something (https://www.thecockpit.org.uk/show/church_of_burn). I'm going to be outside on the night with a charity bucket raising money for a homeless shelter (one that doesn't report to the Home Office). I've been sent this response from the producer of it. Can someone more versed in academic bollocks untangle it for me: https://www.docdroid.net/cNJ48Cf/statement-from-church-of-burn-producer-1.pdf

Of course, you'll have to chain all the doors shut to make sure that none of the money is blown out on a waft of hot air. I've seen three people say on OCUK today that they're switching from LD to Labour. That place is painfully Lib Dem when it isn't fash.

Thanks! That's much clearer. It's still majorly hosed up though and a product of nauseating privilege.

There was literally a James Bond movie about how burning money just makes rich people proportionately richer. Dude's being less woke than a film with a character named Pussy Galore.

I think you've put more thought into it than the dude did - burn money is a religious experience, and very cool - it's not for or against anything, but it is very naughty - but also here's some reasons why it's actually good though, and not as bad as other things - it's, like, living in the moment man... don't overthink it - bla bla hope this sparks a conversation about money, or something also from the site quote:Please support this event and all money burning events at our online shop.

Guavanaut posted:How does removing money from circulation benefit someone that's in debt? Deflation and currency removal benefits creditors. Yes, this is exactly my point? Painting the burning of money as 'generous' because it's deflationary only makes sense in a world without debt, which I was hoping the 'economists' referenced in the article would understand.
