PNGYAKUZA posted:ah sound, definetly going faster than a lot of places but how's the 2nd doses going? I know my mum still has only had her 1st despite being a keyworker. The US is giving out 2nd shots according to the vaccination instructions - 2-4 weeks after the first jab depending on manufacturer. The UK has decided to do 12 weeks between jabs which is why the US will have a lot more 2nd jabs done before us.

If the media were this determined to absolve the Labour leadership of any guilt for anything in 2015-2017 we'd be 4 years into a Corbyn led majority jesus christ

EvilHawk posted:I guess any sort of even vague criticism of Corbyn is still not allowed here. Cool. I know this almost probably isn't what you meant, but rethink sentences that can be interpreted as 'Corbyn supported Palestinians in the past is criticism of Corbyn' because everyone should be supporting Palestinians over the state of Israel.

They're also singing about how much they hate the Palestinians, if that helps clarify. Yesterday was Jerusalem Day in Israel which always brings out the nationalist fash there.

Borrovan posted:Rayner was the Momentum candidate & immediately sold us out & threw her lot in with Keith & the hard right after getting elected. She's been completely loyal to Keith as far as I can tell. imo this was probably all the hard right around him whispering in his ear that he needs to go even more right wing & cut off anyone left-seeming Rayner thinks that Academies can be a good thing for education and said as much as Corbyn's shadow education secretary iirc, so I'm less inclined to trust her than you. feedmegin posted:I thought Dawn Butler was the lefty for deputy? I voted for her, anyway. Dawn wasn't formally affiliated with the left factions in Labour so despite having good politics mostly, Momentum didn't endorse her at all despite it being a ranked vote election. It's factionalism all the way down!

NotJustANumber99 posted:is a footballer or an actor or artist or musician that gets astronomically rich stealing someone's labour? Or are none of those sorts rich enough to be considered astronomically rich without branching out into doing something in labour theft territory? None of them get to billionaire status without investing heavily in real estate/stocks at which point they are stealing other people's labour, yes. Whether they should be making millions for entertainment is a different discussion that is also warped by other people having billions of dollars.

therattle posted:It’s not dependent on advertising and speaking for myself I LOVE ad-free TV, especially for children. That in itself is worth defending. I think most discussions, at least itt, of the BBC being poo poo is about its news division. I think everyone agrees that educational no-ad TV is a very good thing, or even making shows that aren't beholden to ad money/shareholders can be a very good thing.

It also means that the tory Party doesn't think that the Labour Party is institutionally antisemitic, which is pretty entertaining. I'm sure hard working journalists will now acquit the labour party of institutional antisemitism, given we csn just redefine terms whenever we want.

Azza Bamboo posted:Some of the discussion seems to be down to the age old nugget of essentialism vs constructivism. Essentialist thinking appeals to those who think they're being "rational" or understanding "nature". It's the idea that certain "things" have essential qualities and if those qualities are removed then it is no longer that "thing". For example, mammals are species whose females produce milk for their young. If its females don't lactate during child rearing, they're not mammals. That would be an essentialist argument. Constructivist thinking appeals more to socially orientated minds. Its the idea that everything we've thought of is a social construct. We described mammals for our own purposes, but could easily decide that the definition of mammals can change if we decide to deconstruct or reconstruct the concept. The essentialists get up in arms when the essences they're describing, particularly ones from what they perceive to be an external reality, are then changed. Constructivists get up in arms when there is a reason for changing a construct that is resisted for reasons that, to a constructivist, amount to begging the question (because essences don't exist). A fun example (that isn't to do with Diogenes and plucked chickens) is that if the definition for mammals is a) has hair and b) produces milk then a coconut is a mammal.
