UK 'has particularly extreme form of capitalism' https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-50562518"Libertarian Galaxy Brain posted:Not everyone agrees, of course, that the pursuit of profit, within the confines of the law and social norms, is bad. Matthew Lesh, from the Adam Smith Institute, says we should be cautious before we dismantle a mechanism that has produced innovation and a rise in absolute living standards. lol no it loving hasn't e: another, earlier galaxy brain in the same article: quote:Where he doesn't agree is in the demonisation of billionaires: "It's not obscene to make a lot of money in the process of creating real solutions to the problems of the world." so essentially "the problems are bad but their causes .... their causes are very good" Lunar Suite fucked around with this message at 10:24 on Nov 27, 2019 |

I think my least favourite part of modern "journalism" is the tendency to report on something and then report on the reporting and then report on the reporting on the reporting and so on and so on https://twitter.com/BBCPolitics/status/1199592913795211264?s=20 XMNN fucked around with this message at 11:01 on Nov 27, 2019 |

Amazing that all the papers have latched onto this interview but on Friday Johnson was repeatedly asked to apologise for his unambiguous personal racism and didn’t. And no one gave a poo poo, apparently.

I did note my sister - whose politics I have absolutely no idea about - facebooked a Michael Walker tweet criticising the chief Rabbi. The only other mention of anti semitism I've seen in my personal social medias was another guy who isn't so politically engaged a few weeks ago facebooking: "I see that Labour keeps getting critiscised for antisemitism but they never give an example of what the alleged antisemitism is - what's all that about?" - and the replies were all saying it was bullshit.

Note that the headline on BBC News is the "could pay more tax" version. The "low paid people face tax hike" comes directly from the BBC Politics account, which is curated by Kuenssberg. In happier news, here's a story that will warm SMGT's heart.

Rockopolis posted:I'll try to delurk with something I hope is helpful. I've been messing around with PowerShell at work to send emails, it reminded me of this. Hi thanks for remembering! The thing is I have to manually remove some and manually change some. Some local members do not want any emails from the local branch, others want a different email address used for local stuff but not change their email address on the main LP database. Because Organize (LP system) really doesn't do well with branches ('local' in that system means 'clp') and because there seem to be quite a few people who never receive emails sent out on the organize system and it's very difficult to check why, I use an email address of my own aliased to the local party as most of the officers do. I do need to move to Organize at some point, but it's not something I have the energy for now. I think I would be extremely nervous of using a system I wasn't doing myself at this stage. I turn off all phones and tv and do it late evening when I'm sure mother won't randomly appear on my doorstep when I'm doing it to try to eliminate disturbance and the first thing I do is put my own email address in the 'to' box and send to my mobile to see what it looks like on there before doing the bcc.

Azza Bamboo posted:The discourse I'm hearing from colleagues has shifted from Labour is "unelectable" to "every party has done something stupid this election campaign, they're all plonkers" which is an improvement. Something I've noticed - not just re this election but other political issues - is when someone has a dogmatic opinion and are then faced with pretty uncontroversial evidence that that opinion is wrong - instead of saying 'oh I'll believe you now' they revert to 'they're all as bad as each other' comments. I'm heartened when some of the previously tory voters on my 'friends' are now posting 'they're all as bad and I'm not voting' comments.

At this point Corbyn could release footage of Boris Johnson singing "Send the buggers back" while wearing blackface with a bone through his nose and they'd try to get the topic back to antisemitism. They just don't give a gently caress.

I loving hate it when the BBC spends like 2 minutes reporting on something then switches to 15 minutes of a bunch of talking heads making GBS threads out their lazy, complacent opinions about the subject of the 2 minutes report. I don't CARE what your 2 cents is, just tell me what happened ffs.

Well this is a nice way to wash away all the poo poo from yesterday I wonder if they were specifically saving it as a comeback for whenever they decided to go full antisemitism. If you really want to go deep with it you could even say Labour specifically set up the Race and Faith manifesto launch to bait everyone into unloading the antisemitism guns
