You're the government, figure it out you loving imbecile. Maybe the government could you know, subsidise things. Maybe nationalise a few resources. Nah nothing can be done we need cheap poo poo lets blow the planet up. It's so clear now that only ultra-capitalism will do. Can't even just go back to mega-capitalism. It has to be utter total profit at the expense of all else including the concept of life.

They're just playing games while waiting for society to fall apart to the point where they can stop pretending they're not sadistic ghouls getting ready to murder certain sections of society.

Yeah i think it’d be an outlet for some if the frustration to just be able to say i have a party to vote for I guess being in Wales there is plaid but they are… not good. They mean well, i think, but they could use some political tips from the snp.

i'm sure it's going to be difficult for any new left wing party. Being leftist is the hard mode of politics already. But I kinda feel people are carefully constructing scenarios where nothing works so why bother and it's kinda coming off like learned helplessness. I agree that the chances of a new party getting anywhere in the next decade are slim but I think it's worth a shot. The status quo is obviously not working for us so why not try something? I think it's easy for people not used to dealing with depression to fall into poisonous thought patterns that they don't readily recognise as bad and this is one of those times. We literally have nothing to lose. Left labour is dead and Starmer is trying his best to rush to the right of the tories. Is there a better time for trying a new thing? To inject a little chaos into british politics?

Comrade Fakename posted:If a new party is formed, and all the lefties leave for it, what happens? My answer: it does very badly. If it doesn’t crash and burn immediately, it will at least halve the number of socialists in government, and the remaining will slowly lose their seats by attrition, with almost no media coverage, little money, and likely little grassroots enthusiasm after initial excitement turns into limited electoral success. Labour is now completely dominated by the right (this couldn’t have gone more Luke Akehurst’s way if he planned it), and they totally cement every advantage they have. In years to come once the new party has been a disappointment, people will try entryism into Labour again. If they aren’t blocked from getting in at all (likely), and somehow manage to fluke some old lefty hanging on into the leadership again, the ordeal will go even worse than Corbyn’s tenure as there is now even less established left in the Labour Party, and almost no candidates for higher positions because everyone likely is in their early 20s. nah

forkboy84 posted:Right, see, this is the inherent disagreement with between the Burn Labour To The Ground side & the Stay & Reform Labour side & we're talking at cross purposes. Because yes, the SCG & the unions leaving Labour for a new party is a fantasy for several reasons, including that the SCG MPs are more in love with the concept of the Labour Party than they are with actual poor people. But the point that we're making is that it's no more of a fantasy than Labour being in anyway redeemable at this point. Any project of left-wing revival is powered on hope & optimism & a smattering of self-delusion because if you don't have these things you'd give in to despair. tbh i just think the chaos is useful in itself our politics is mired and even if there's only a 0.1% chance of something good happening i think it'd still need some good old fashioned chaos to even make those low odds plausible

WhatEvil posted:You're right in some ways, it'll never happen, but neither will achieving socialism through the machinery of the Labour Party. I don't think you get to advocate for that and also throw around terms like "ludicrous fantasy". Good point. Even if a split can't get us socialism, the very least we should be aiming for is destruction of the labour party no quarter for traitors

Guavanaut posted:I started reading that thinking "who on earth would believe that and why?" until I got to the bit where Jesus was Russian and so is Crimea. it's so similar to our own national delusion: uncontrollable ego and machismo unbound by physical reality On one hand the Russian people know they're in a nadir of their culture, just like the UK, and make jokes at their own expense and lean into their own miserable existence as a joke (see all the videos about how hosed up everything is in Russia lol we're all drinking our selves to death). Without much warning this turns into "glorious Russia will grow strong, kneel, kneel Europeans, we're going to tactical nuke you if you don't give us your lunch money and also everywhere that has Russian expats is now technically Russia". The phenomenon of powerful nations sinking into ruin is a really scary thing to behold and that makes me very worried indeed about America. They're so hosed but they also have 3000+ nukes that they have to somehow keep control of while undergoing societal decay over a huge expanse of land.

the Davy Crockett was a dumb idea and a sign of the insane normilisation of tactical nuclear weapons but the stuff about it's firing range making it kill its operators was made up. Wikipedia says the blast yield was 20 tonnes of tnt and rads were down to 0.01 rads by 0.25 km from the center of blast what safety mechanisms it had i don't know so i guess if it missfires or is very inaccurate it could hit the crew?

Epic High Five posted:From where I sit, it really seems extremely likely to me that Boris is now Punished Boris: Sin Eater and that he will be jettisoned just as soon as every single sin of the party is piled on him and him alone. Shouldn't labour be hoping he sticks around? Tories are gonna go up like 25 points the second it's someone boring and moderate seeming at the top. Hell even if it's someone bloodthirsty and insane. probably but chaos is all we have at this point if Boris stays we have the status quo and the status quo is really bad. Personally I hope things get worse and worse until something good happens or the country just explodes and sinks and survivors can claim asylum in Ireland.

a pipe smoking dog posted:Once the report drops that redacts any wrong doing the Tories are going to be back in the lead again. Surely the summary wouldn’t be redacted? Like just a line with no specifics just ‘yeah he’s a poo poo’. If even the ultimate verdict is redacted then that’ll be damning by its nature. Like i understand that everything is corrupt and he was always going to get away with it but this seems a bizarrely clumsy and obviously guilty way of doing it.
