Fumble posted:You might have just changed my life. Just the mental health aspect of not having to worry would be huge. That's been the biggest change for me, not having to worry about the threat of eviction from the housing association, or having the police decide to bust me again etc. To qualify, you need to have a diagnosis of one of the conditions/symptoms that are covered by medicinal cannabis, and you need to have tried at least two conventional treatments first. It took me about 5-6 weeks from initially applying to getting my first pot of weed DPD'd from the pharmacy, and all I had to do was fill in an online form and take part in a zoom appointment (as well as pay cash of course). I made them do all the hard work obtaining my NHS records. I'm with Sapphire clinic, which is one of the better ones, but they don't do the Project T21 scheme for discounted cannabis. TMCC do, but they have a lot of admin/CS issues. Feel free to reach out via PM if you have any questions or need any help. fuctifino fucked around with this message at 01:15 on Oct 16, 2021 |

This seemed fairly inevitable as soon as the press started saying he was black. Rich white cunts don't get killed by black people unless it's terrorism, therefore if a rich white oval office is killed by a black person it must be terrorism. It's basically never terrorism if a white person kills a black person, though. That's just politics.

CommieGIR posted:Hey guys, despite the obvious issues with have with Tories, lets NOT openly celebrate a murder, thanks This is why American mods shouldn't touch UKMT. Obsessed with decorum in the dullest way possible. It's fine to enjoy bad things happening to bad people who have dedicated their life to making the world a worse place. This is not the same as inciting people to do murders, which would be a stupid thing to do on a public forum. Dude spent ~40 years as an MP trying to make the world a worse place for LGBT people and poor people, he supported policies that have lead to massive inequality, a mental health crisis & God only knows how many dead who needed be. It's cowardly to pretend the world is a worse place without David Amess being in it.

On top of which, Amess's remarks about how it was dangerous to leave the EU were exactly the kind of talk that radicalised the last person to murder an MP. All that said, I'd prefer it if he hadn't been murdered. Killing him didn't undo any of the evil he did, things are going to get worse here because of his death, and it's not like he'll be replaced by anyone better.

Yeah its like expecting Manchin being murdered would result in a better Dem being voted in. Nah, we'd probably get a GOP replacement.

Well they've already said he'd been reported to prevent previously so he was almost certainly on some MI5 watch list and they've once again massively hosed up because they were too busy helping the police infiltrate an environment campaign group.

It should be obvious that you should never wish murder or rape on anyone, or cheer at it. That's completely and utterly tasteless. If Farage died in a plane crash or a COVID denialist died of COVID then that's on them, but murder is a very serious, traumatizing crime. The dude's dead already, why do you need to masturbate on it? Not saying that you can't be relieved that he's gone, we are all going to go one day and it's probably to the better that some would go sooner... but being glad that they were violently assassinated is not a good thing.

Eh, being reported to Prevent basically just means that he's black (and possibly lived in a terraced house). Let's not be too hasty in bigging up the credibility of a system that mainly exists as a tool of racist persecution.

You absolutely should wish murder on those that desire or are actively performing harm on you and yours. It's like the least we can do. The rich and powerful desire certain parts of our society ill and you can bet they're acting upon those wishes. They have so many different ways of doing it. They don't have to get their hands dirty. They can kill us with market forces, means testing, privatization of basic needs, police violence, endless debts. Make us numb and confused then squeeze every drop of blood out of us. Forget climate change, if there's ever a reckoning the world will drown in blood.

It starts off too concilatory for my tastes but this blog post finishes on the right note:quote:The truth is if politics is at root of David Amess's murder, politicians and their press allies would do well to look at their own rhetoric. When she's not demonising refugees, Priti Patel is talking about pushing them back into the sea and exempting border patrols from prosecution for the subsequent drownings. The Tories dog whistle scrounger sentiments with their Universal Credit cut, the press egg on drivers to run over Insulate Britain protesters, and Boris Johnson himself built his victorious 2019 campaign off the back of labelling his opponents traitors and unpatriotic. All this is done in the service of a polarisation of politics they're happy to feed for as long as they benefit from it. This is the root of the political pathologies we see, and the Tories cheerfully apply more gas to the pressure cooker. For as long as these stark inequalities and antagonisms continue, we'll see more hateful rhetoric and, in all likelihood, a small number of people responding to it. https://averypublicsociologist.blogspot.com/2021/10/the-use-and-abuse-of-david-amess.html Moral condemnation of things are pretty irrelevant when economic and political forces are driving it to happen no matter what you think and shouting about the cause rather than solemn observations of the effect is absolutely the correct line.

It just means the actual serious stuff gets lost in a sea of white noise.
