I can finally vote for Plaid without caring about the fact they have no chance of winning. Thanks Keith. I'm really Welsh at last. Interesting facts about Welsh: Backpack in Welsh is 'bacpacio' Regarde Aduck fucked around with this message at 00:23 on May 1, 2021 |

I mean they were taking on the US pharma industry. They're pure evil. Lol that people still think its not them doing everything they can to sink the AZ vaccine its cool watching even the EU go 'yep we'll tie ourselves to US pharma companies for billions, forever.'

yeah that's an awful probe. I can't tell whether d&d is just overreacting to trolling from cspam and so seeing lots of the word 'liberals' and just freaking out, or if that mod truly thinks american liberals are an actual functional leftist force

that mod just probed someone else for suggesting libs are useless centrists who don't agree with evil but are very much against stopping it I never really agreed with cspam about how bad d&d is, I remember when it was full of libertarians and their puppy avatars. But apparently centrism is back in a big way. Real 2010 vibe going on.

there seems to be gathering pressure by the media and both major parties to just get super regressive. Like I feel they're going to try going back further than we ever thought. But at the same time the younger people aren't going to suddenly accept it. Like is the plan to just smash both sides of the culture wars together until all the young people act and vote exactly like the old people? Do they think this is going to happen?

Both sides are as bad as each other in that the labour left need to split like yesterday. There’s no saving labour this time. We need a new party.

well yeah, the hard right party was always going to be able to attack from the left more than the centre right useless centrists can attack rightwards. How would they even do it? Just go full nazi? It's why trying to emulate the Tories for more votes is such a stupid concept. People already have a tory party. They're happy with their tory party.

I really hope people (ok me, I’m talking about me) aren’t going to potentially die because of arbitrary supply of different vaccines. They didn’t have to rush. They could have maintained restrictions until we all got the ‘good vaccines’. So now we have the potential situation where everything opens because ‘people are vaccinated’ but one vaccine does little and they get super infected because no one else cares anymore. Murdered by postcode lottery.

i just wish we had some information either way on whether the other foot is dropping and the indian variant is going to gently caress everything up, or if this is just a hiccup the media wants me to be terrified at all times because its good for business, I realise this and yet I cannot deny this is making me anxious.

Anyone know what set of the Swansea riot? All the articles i've read are very uninterested in saying why it happened. So far I can work out step 1) vigil for 19 year old that died ......... step 4) RIOT

apparantly the police turned up, saw there were more than 5 'youths' throwing stuff and drove off and never came back. Apparently there the street was full of journos and the police never returned during the time they were there. That's what i've read anyway. Definitely feels like i'm missing an entire side of the story.

I appreciate that great portions of the nation are poor as gently caress and without hope but there has to be more to it than that or most of the country would be on fire all the time. i grew up in a poor working class environment and never once thought about setting a car on fire. More fool me i suppose. I certainly don't think this was just VIOLENT THUGS but I think trying to blame this all on economic status risks labeling every poor person as some kind of mad animal, always on the edge of just losing it and rioting. I don't even know if the rioters knew the kid that died. And if they liked or dislike him, or if that had anything to do with anything? It probably didn't help that everyone hid. Including the police. A whole street just gave up. Would they have been beaten or killed if they'd have actually confronted this seemingly random group? I doubt it but who knows. The way everything was confined to property damage implies to me that they were exploiting the situation of every adult, and the police, just giving up. Being poor sucks. The pandemic has kicked me back towards an era i'd rather not revisit. But it's not really a reason to go madmax. The police suck poo poo but the reality of this is that we've got to think about how, from a leftist perspective, we deal with this poo poo. Because all signs point to increasing hardship, at least in the near future. Which means communities have got to get use to dealing with their own poo poo. Which also potentially means getting acid in the face or stabbed. No i'm not hopeful about any of this tbh.

as always the blame lies with the system. If I was Johnson and I could just keep trying till it worked i'd do that to. What kind of idiot wouldn't? And what kind of idiot designed the system to be so abusable in the first place? When you think about how climate change may doom us all and we're at a super critical point just as the worst people the world over seem to be scoring flawless victories, the thing that may have killed us all was the idea that the people in charge wouldn't ever abuse the systems of government so we don't actually need rules or punishments. Oh no, what are you doing? You can't just do bad stuff and keep just being leader like nothing happened!? bessantj posted:Was doing some gardening this morning and saw a magpie chase down and just murder a smaller bird.

goddamnedtwisto posted:Depressingly what's increasingly going to happen is the bad boats will take advantage of retreating ice coverage to take the northwest and northeast passages, something shipping companies are extremely excited about without even pretending to know the meaning of the word "irony" or "hubris". Also I like trains as much as the next goon but even a couple of trans-Eurasian lines running at full chat wouldn't be able to cope with the throughput just on the Shanghai-Rotterdam route, let alone the rest of the traffic heading between China and Europe. There is actually a large range where the ice can retreat and it doesn't mean civilisation is going to be destroyed. Problem is there's a lot of inertia in the changes so hitting the breaks to try and min-max the ice retreat but not destroy the biosphere is impossible. It's the oceans. Even if we somehow stopped warming the earth right now it'd be thousands of years before the oceans respond to the trend.
