Tijuana Bibliophile posted:well, I'd argue the brexit vote was just as perfectly valid a response to working class concerns on elitist rule and immigration as was the trump vote. i agree the forums tend to have a less than respectful discourse on these matters, but I'm quite puzzled by just how defensively you react--i'm less than convinced incandescent rage is a great mental model for this. maybe you find it helpful.

I have a strong suspicion that the only good Bond films are Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace, but I've not seen any of the non Craig ones in a while to confirm. Maybe Goldeneye too but I'd have to watch it again.

marktheando posted:The best Bonds are Casino Royale, Goldeneye, and most of the Connery ones. Edit: Goldfinger does the Casino Royale thing of having Bond be an absolute dipshit who gets by purely on luck and the pity of his enemies, so it would be one of the best if not for Bond doing sex crimes in it Pilchenstein fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Feb 2, 2020 |

Apparently wales has fewer fast charger points than milton keynes, so Saith I'd like to apologiche. This cannot be right. I'm just lucky I've got no reason to go to wales after they were rude and unwelcoming the last time.

Communist Thoughts posted:I do now think i'm looking for some introspection and changed attitudes that isn't really reflected by the people who have stayed posting here. Some of whom seem to have pivotted right from the corbyn suicide charge into an RLB suicide charge without taking a breath. I realise that the election loss was incredibly upsetting but if your greatest concern is that you looked like a dick for being on the losing team and that must not happen again no matter the cost then you need to give yourself a serious talking to before you end up voting tory next time

Alchenar posted:Honest opinion: Corbyn's problem was that he was insufficiently genuinely left wing, his successor should try the same platform but dump the stuff that is subsidies for the middle class like rail nationalisation and ending tuition fees. Alchenar posted:Under the tuition fees system university is free if you are working class and the degree doesnt improve your earning potential. The debt never has to be paid back and eventually just disappears.

goddamnedtwisto posted:No, people decided that anyone with that username format (which has been the default for at least a few years) was automatically a Russian bot because people with that username format often say things that the sort of person who blames Russia when they poo poo their pants disagree with. It's a perfect example of selection bias (and bubble mentality, possibly with a bit of racism mixed in).
