Hmmm too normal to be funny alas but he looks like the lovechild of Dylan Roof and Ted Cruz in those pictures and that's on point enough to be funny

Edit - maybe more Mike Pence than Cruz

It seems strange to me that her family say she received numerous death threats and the police are saying there's nothing to suggest it was a targeted attack or that any of the threats were credible. I suppose it was just one of those random unprovoked headshot kills that happen all the time

all I had to read was that she’s a good friend of Imarn Ayton, who, if not a cop, is one of the most egotistical and awful centre-right people I’ve ever had the displeasure of encountering. I hope she recovers obviously but yeah, huge swathes of the U.K. BLM movement are reactionary and liberal as gently caress and in no way good or cool.

Black activists who appropriate Black Panther aesthetics tend to be either actors trying to boost their media profiles, or deeply reactionary. Let's check out Taking The Initiative Party's website:

Literally the first night in my area when pubs reopened at one a gang of lads were shouting homophobic slurs. While at nearby pub a brawl started over a girl speaking Polish. Does feel like the press are leading a lurch backwards.

Every man I interacted with today called me “mate” and that’s not something that usually happens in Sheffield.

This was in an area where “duc” is used for men and women, and “mate” is a 100% deliberate smug attempt to misgender someone they thought was trans. Like, sorry as I don’t pass as a women for you great gammon TWAT, but butch lesbians, not usually ones for giving a gently caress what men think so 🖕

performative denunciation is a shibboleth to indicate a break from the previous leadership and it worked once to get the people they want onside onside (and vice versa). they'll keep doing it hoping it will again.

alternately, they don't want to appear as inflexible as they are and as such it's very important to make it clear that the only one keeping corbyn out is corbyn - if only Sisyphus could get the rock all the way to the top of the hill and keep it there why he'd be freed.

It’s so stupid, draw a line, create a manifesto with some actual polices and stop looking at what other people are doing and with this group of wet blankets you could at least capture all the ex-Lib dem voters - especially if you went in hard on the environment and made promises about making electric cars affordable for all and so on.

Problem:

quote:

Heartache is powerful, but democracy is *subtle*. Incrementally, you begin to notice a change in the weather. When it snows, the flakes are softer when they stick to your worry-worn forehead. When it rains, the rain is warmer. Democracy is coming to the Administrative Region. The ideals of Dolorian humanism are reinstating themselves. How can they not? These are the ideals of the Coalition and the Moralist International. Those guys are signal blue. And they're not only good -- they're also powerful. What will it be like, once their nuanced plans have been realized?

Solution:

quote:

The Kingdom of Conscience will be exactly as it is now. Moralists don't really *have* beliefs. Sometimes they stumble on one, like on a child's toy left on the carpet. The toy must be put away immediately. And the child reprimanded. Centrism isn't change -- not even incremental change. It is *control*. Over yourself and the world. Exercise it. Look up at the sky, at the dark shapes of Coalition airships hanging there. Ask yourself: is there something sinister in moralism? And then answer: no. God is in his heaven. Everything is normal on Earth.
