started a thread in cinema discusso where he purchased tickets for goons to watch Waiting for Superman, and then everybody dog piled him in the thread and humiliated him and his poor movie tastes.
it takes a special kind of stupid to be run out of cinema discusso, of all loving places

i'd say that trolling cined is doing the lord's work, but arkane being stupid, he probably did it sincerely

actually, this isn't new at all, is it, the Nazis were notorious for 'it's just a joke, bro'
and this is why irony is bad and anyone who says they're doing it online is too

(not accusing you of this, but it's definitely a view i've seen among some people online, hence my joke about it)

He can media smeared out of the nom AND the general election. Twice the chances for heartbreak.
the UK has officially created the playbook for a massive, all hands on deck institutional power play to keep anyone from outside of the system from getting in. the only question is whether the DNC is competent enough to get it done, because i no longer doubt their will

I remember that people would say that voting for Trump was America's brexit.

nah, this is the British version of voting for Trump, brexit is far dumber.

yeah i'm not buying that anti-semitism played any factor, the british public wanted brexit come hell or high water. Boris was unequivocal about it, Corbyn was like "ok, sure, but...."

so did this happen because of the BS antisemitism smears on Corbyn or what
no, it was because the british public wanted Brexit and they weren't confident in Labour to bring it to them

this focuses on boris' win mostly but its worth a read for americans because it covers in detail the tactics that were used and how far right parties and especially the trump campaign are using. Stuff like they track the phone of everyone who goes to a trump rally so they can get their facebook and netflix ID's

one of the worst things about this election is that it gave a major, probably fatal, blow to an international collaborative left movement. you'd better believe that the far right across the world is sharing notes
