If you're in the North but not North enough to be Scotland you should be in the Northern Independence Party

15 million people, a GDP per capita just below Japan, and crucially no imperial delusions to obsess over

We're launching our actual membership system soon, when it happens if you can't actually pay subs (£2.50 a month unwaged) I will personally see if there's a way you can get involved anyway

Ah, the eternal delusion that if parts of the UK split away, they will somehow be innocent of the empire.

Our position is that the north constitutes a nation in waiting, we don't have a position on guilt re: empire

E: additionally, lmao at a us/uk citizen attempting to guilt anyone. You are the perfect intersection of empire

anyone else feel that mark zuckerberg is probably the single most damaging influence in the world generally rn in terms of just how much stuff is getting hosed because he refuses to get involved and stop it. insane whatsapp groups sharing stuff in brazil was a big part of why bolsonaro won for example and we all know how damaging facebook refusing to properly moderate content is . a ton of stuff that facebook should be doing it doesn't specifically because of him

Rumours and conspiracy theories have existed well before the computer, the damage done by Facebook is a reflection of the damage done by the capabilities and development of capitalism to connect the masses AND alienate the masses from anything we might consider good. If he wasn't a lovely person happy to ally with the US military and intelligence services then some other social media giant would have appeared.


Well in terms of individual accountability yes but we're getting close to the idea that we can liberate the people by killing the Tsar which just isn't true.

No Jose was right, that was phenazepam and it can cause ordering grand pianos that might not fit your current domicile from the former Soviet Union.

Which is still less of a health risk than ordering grand pianos that might not fit your current domicile from the former Soviet Union without health insurance in the present United States.

A Soviet grand piano is probably better than any western piano for the same price
