- Comment on The British public deserves to know what UK Energy Secretary Miliband discussed with Beijing 3 days ago:
This would be fully in line with the current approach of the People’s Liberation Army to warfare as a clash between systems
wow, Telegraph readers, that’s some serious shit going down here.

- Comment on Labour MP claims it'd cost "Upwards of £100bn to Nationalise Water". He is an extremely smart man. Why does he lie like this? 2 weeks ago:
And if they’d give him the opposite line the next day, he’d have no problems repeating it, duly.
- Comment on Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years 2 weeks ago:
I forgive you too, brother
- Comment on Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years 2 weeks ago:
I wasn’t advocating for zero punishment. But what damage has been done that justifies 4 years prison, let alone 12?
- Comment on Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years 3 weeks ago:
You obviously don’t know what you’re talking about
- Comment on Two men behind ‘senseless’ felling of Sycamore Gap tree jailed for more than four years 3 weeks ago:
4 years!
Of course it’s fucked up and whatever, but this feels like a populist sentence. 4 years is an incredible long time. In what way is this adequate for the crime. Like mentioned before, there is incredible damage being done to nature in the name of business, very rarely somebody is getting a little bit of blowback, and these two guys, who really don’t have much potential to destroy anything more are sent away as an example? To whom? The generally misbehaving public?

Gotta adjust the suggested limits. Quick!!!

Ha, fuck you AI, I said it in one sentence.

- Comment on Every single UK citizen should carefully read this article. It reveals how political power really works in Britain. 2 months ago:
Politicians who can’t afford a certain lifestyle get a little help making policy decisions by those who can provide the funds for the aforementioned lifestyle.
- Comment on Our workless young: a scandal we cannot ignore 5 months ago:
The minimum wage for 18-21s is different to the one for the rest?
- Comment on Starmer says he wants to increase UK defence spending to 3% - and announces foreign aid cut 5 months ago:
So they read the transatlantic cables, and this is what they come up with?
- Comment on UK’s first use of city-wide facial recognition in Cardiff 5 months ago:
Don’t forget the (relatively) new protest laws
- Comment on How likely do you think there will be a run on the banks? 5 months ago:
I think it already happened. He mentioned that there might be something up with the bonds just a week ago. Luckily he was quiet since then.

There’s also reasons why capitalism doesn’t work in feudal societies. They don’t give a fuck about logic though

Have you read the study?
Because: I still only get the names of the authors when I click the link to the study. In the article on the other hand there is a link to the “study that will be published” and it goes to the same rather blank archive url that you provided.
If the study has already been published, maybe you got another source?
- Comment on 6 months ago:
Can‘t find the pdf of the study under the address. Then again, is it really worth reading it: They found that there isn‘t more pro-ccp stuff on TikTok than on the American platforms but less anti-ccp content on it. I mean they tried real hard finding something, looking for the decisive keywords, yet this is the outcome? There is more anti-ccp content on American platforms that on a Chinese one! Does that tell us something about Chinese or about American propaganda?
- Comment on Revealed: UK drinking water sources polluted with forever chemicals 6 months ago:
In Germany the ministry of economy led by the Green party just abandoned plans to ban those chemicals. Just a year after suggesting to ban them at the EU level.

How can we trust people that say dumb shit like that?

Okey Dokey

so you got a pretty big mouth, how about telling us how you avoid all those taxes?
- Comment on Am I a bad person if (as left as they come) I invest in American Private Prison contractors on the assumption that Trump will go through with his deportation scheme at least to some extent? 8 months ago:
you‘re conveniently omitting the concentration camps he wants to profit off
- Comment on Am I a bad person if (as left as they come) I invest in American Private Prison contractors on the assumption that Trump will go through with his deportation scheme at least to some extent? 8 months ago:
yes, but I’m not investing in it. Get the difference?
- Comment on Am I a bad person if (as left as they come) I invest in American Private Prison contractors on the assumption that Trump will go through with his deportation scheme at least to some extent? 8 months ago:
What does it mean “as left as they come”? When you’re interested in profiting from current slave labour and future concentration camps.

How does this form of protest translate into a change of the tipping system?
- Comment on Plans to ban smoking outside hospitals and schools in England 8 months ago:
It’s all about the language I guess. Fucking off the nanny state or sensing a culture war against vapes, really?, is the language currently used by the aforementioned press.
It seems the government is going to consult about extending a vape ban, while the disposable ban and the smoking ban is what is coming now.
Vaping used to be a cool thing for quitting cigs, but it’s become a zombie and is making a lot of kids addicted to nicotine.
- Comment on Plans to ban smoking outside hospitals and schools in England 8 months ago:
Nice try to derail the conversation.
This is about smoking tobacco in children playgrounds, outside hospitals and schools. Just explaining it again, because there’s also the chance you’re just a bit thick.
Concerning vaping: Disposable vapes will be banned. That’s it. Wanna rage against that?
Probably you do so because you got your fodder in the Murdoch papers and just need to regurgitate your breakfast. Judging by the lingo.
- Comment on Time has come for reparations conversation, say Commonwealth leaders 9 months ago:
So I had this idea:
Not long ago there was talk about this research that showed that colonialism wasn’t profitable for the countries undertaking it.
What was omitted though was that somebody did profit. Private citizens. Companies.
So what I thought is: they’re still around. The ones who did profit and their families and companies. And lately it seems they kinda own us all.
So how about reparations for all the ones who lost out in the gold rush. Who own no land, have no property, no capital. From all nations.
