Tolkien used hobbits to represent traditional English values. This is why Bilbo leaves his home, lies to a foreigner, steals his treasure, and causes a war which kills and displaces millions of people.

If I want apples and you want oranges a compromise is "let's pool our resources and buy both so our needs are met" If I want apples and you want to shoot me in the head, the compromise can't be "I get an apple but you get one free shot at me"

FUN FACT: The top 50 richest families in the UK now hold more wealth than the poorest HALF of the population. Keir Starmer should stop targeting immigrants and introduce a wealth tax on the 1%.

The whole 'Grok is a boer now' thing is very funny, but it also really exposes how every 'AI tool' isn't just passively biased from training data, but actively designed to shape your worldview according to the interests of the billionaires who made them.

Keir Starmer is impressively irredeemable. Like a character that starts out annoying and cringe, then gets way too much screen time, before becoming simultaneously the most poorly written villain and also the most dangerous. Oh Britain, you sure do produce a special brand of cunt.

This is on Facebook, I scrolled for a bit and every single comment I saw, no exaggeration, was either "you liar, too many foreigners, vote Reform" or "you're meant to be the Labour Party what is this fash shit". There was nobody going "thank you, Sir Keir".

“The thing that we all insisted wasn’t happening and scolded people, and agitated for their blacklisting, arrest and exclusion from the public square for saying was happening, that thing we all said was cynical terrorist agitprop by gullible fools? That thing? Well, we would like it to stop now.”

Every year the public purse spends over £500 million to maintain a billionaire king while services are cut and those most in need lose support. The monarchy is an outdated, undemocratic, and unjustifiable system. Scotland must be built on a foundation of equality and democracy.

The Guardian has an 'explainer' about the India-Pakistan conflict that manages to avoid stating that the border between the countries was originally drawn by an Englishman who had never been to India and signed off on in a hurry by Lord Mountbatten because he had to get back to Britain for a party.

This is an official plan for ethnic cleansing. If you supported Israel for the past 18 months or so under the assumption that this was about the hostages you were taken for a ride. If you still support Israel's assault on Gaza, you support ethnic cleansing. It's that simple.

Really cool the way Labour is correcting for the Tories' "pander to their core voters at all costs" strategy, with a "telling THEIR core voters to go fuck themselves at every opportunity" strategy

A trans woman wrote to Wetherspoons to ask which toilets they're meant to use. Wetherspoons replied acknowledging the Supreme Court's verdict...and that trans customers can use whichever loos they want to but to please lock the cubicle door. Labour now being outflanked on the left by Wetherspoons.

Damning report by Amnesty. And Labour want to make it much much worse. 'A shift from support to punishment.' 'Nearly a quarter of the UK in poverty.' Don't tell me about the good things they are/have done. This should be a red line for every single traditional Labour voter. No if's no but's.

definitely the funniest thing about TERFs is how they think when the state sides with them on transphobia it's because of their hard work and tenacity. oh feminists lost on childcare, abortion, and rape culture, but won on this? what are the chances

Even if this report were not obvious lies, it means when ordered IDF soldiers will not hesitate to fire continuously on ambulances and unarmed medics for five minutes from close range, no questions asked. Tell me again about the most moral army in the world.
