Diet Crack posted:You did the right thing - people shouldn't have cats if they can't accept that poo poo is going to get scratched or things knocked over. The idea that they'll run rampant for 10 days instead of just sleeping most of the time is absurd. I reckon they prefer to knock things over when humans are around anyway. They like the effect it has. Ed: draw me like one of your French cattes taxxe: Runcible Cat fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Oct 30, 2022 |

British poo poo, best in the world! It's a privilege to bathe in that. Should be charging the French and Germans who will meet this poo poo soon.

The Mail must have silently edited the article because it's not there now. Don't think the tweet is a Photoshop though because multiple early comments mention the name.

Yeah I think they've done the coward's edit, because several other people noticed it before the good Sir Michael.

If the Brazil thread is to be believed, coups need US support and the US has told Bolso to get hosed. Hope he does, I enjoyed my time working in Brazil but wow they had a lovely government back then.

Comrade Fakename posted:Without commenting on Bastani more generally, I imagine he follows Mogg because it’s his job to follow and comment on politics, and he wants to keep an eye on what he’s saying. I wouldn’t really take that as any political inclination. I follow a bunch of people who I know to be good comrades, who a bit annoyingly do the same thing, meaning I get some utter shitbags in my feed sometimes. I recently had to tell Twitter to stop showing me tweets from Lee Harpin so often for exactly this reason. I'm not sure that's the case with Bastani https://twitter.com/Arbeit_Fish/status/1580663475059142656

Better to criticise the guy by what he has actually said, they often make fun of politicians' tweets on Novara, as has been said there are solid journalistic reasons for following a prominent politician, and he may be attending that event to actually battle with some bad ideas, hence the title. It's important to push back against the fascists. Happy to retract my support of Bastani if actual evidence he is not politically or morally sound can be shown however.

Bastani has an tendency towards galaxy brain hot takes that are often just silly, but he's not a secret Tory.

I thought we'd all learned the lesson that debating abhorrent ideas just legitimises them in the eyes of the public but I guess not so back on the hamster wheel we go

Why are these 'Battles For Ideas' always about the worst loving ideas possible? Like there's lots of ideas out there, some even very controversial and excluded altogether from the wider debate, but you'd never get "communal childrearing cultures give better outcomes for children than ones that obsess over property and paternity" or "the hard problem of consciousness can be explained by certain quantum effects experiencing one another relativistically" or "monotheism is inherently intolerant and we should encourage polytheism", whereas looking at the line-up you will definitely get "I should be allowed to shag kids" and "indecent photos of kids, good".

Bastani does have a very strange habit of treating fash-adjacent trad-right folks more cordially than their politics and platforms really deserve (as opposed to, say, just ignoring them like the rest of the millions of diverse and exciting weirdos in this country). He's still on Twitter speaking terms with awful right-wing union guy stereotype Paul Embery, for instance, and writes for the tiny crank-Conservative website Unherd.
