Do these people realise communist isn't an insult if you're actually communist? It's not like racist, which still works on racists because their worldview and mindset are so dissonant that they refuse to identify as what they are.

They do not. The olds who lived through the era of the red scare still have that poo poo ingrained while the young just go "wtf are you on about you old gently caress"

As the whitest man in Britain, I feel it falls to me to categorically condemn this atrocity.

That's quite the claim. Can your rear end be used to signal aircraft and do cameras have trouble with auto focusing on you?

You know, this whole expropriate the capitalist class thingy suddenly seems a lot easier to implement if this is what we'll be up against in 20-30 years.

Their proxies own all the guns and the people who wield them.

Until they fire the military to fund their newest tax cut, of course.

In the past they've always been smart enough to fund the police and military but maybe this latest crop really are stupid enough to not do that.

Good news! With modern nuclear weapons, none of those shelters will actually survive being in the blast zone and death is certain.

Ya it owns. The overpressure wave will kill you anyway if you are at ground zero and even if you are a bit further away you need to have a pretty loving sophisticated shelter with blast valves for it to not be a very expensive oven for you and your family

then if you do survive, you have to get out of an irradiated hellscape though the more efficient bombs are not so bad on the fallout. really the best option is to open your arms to the incandescent nuclear fire and be reduced to ash instantly

Quoting just to confirm that follow UKMT and UK politics is my way of cheering up after reading about whatever the hell the latest news here is.

Haha wait till Brexit becomes a real thing happening now instead of a hosed up thing that's going to happen in the future.

EDIT: Also this thread was very recently about a bunch of people being burned alive in an extremely depressing example of how little late stage capitalism values human life .

Americans are little pissbabies who don't get that trump is a symptom of their problems, not a cause.

America is a militaristic hyper nationalistic county that borders on fascism at times and the horrible reality is that trumps incompetence is actually probably for the best as democrats and republicans alike are both on board with the militarist empire.

poo poo is hosed but it has been since the 1960s and trump isn't really that big of a deal and is in fact a distraction from the real issues of militarism, nationalism, American exceptionalism and the institutional racism

This is a very spicy and very good take.

Labour is going to force a vote today on an end to the public sector pay cap.

I don't know if it was missed but the end of that article is extremely good.

quote:

A Conservative spokesman said the country was "indebted" to the heroism of the police and emergency services, but Labour's proposed tax rises and higher borrowing would threaten investment in them.

We are indebted, but uhh I don't mean like with money. Thanks and good thoughts.

It's important to remember that while ACAB, american police are uniquely psychopathic in a way that UK police aren't

Hey now! It's not unique! There are tons of 3rd world countries with militarized brutal police forces.

there is 400GW of nuclear installed globally. solar will probably hit that sometime next year, having been at basically zero ten years earlier

It also takes ~5 years to build a nuclear plant assuming you already have all of the permitting and everything else setup in advance along with a suitable location.
