The very first thing I got professionally published in 2016 was directly addressing this very thing. Since then the media class have made it very clear that I can go fuck myself, working class actually does mean "racist" and they will not be changing, thanks.

I see we've had vigilante discourse. It really floors me that there are people saying "if you tolerate/support it you'll make everything worse" real mistaking the symptom for the cause. If your (justice) system isn't just, this is what you get. The more obviously unjust, the bigger the backlash.

the absolute panic on display here is entirely down to the fact that the "luigi was right" group vastly outnumbers the "profit is more important than human lives" group

Corbyn must condemn etc. etc.

Not to worry. I'm sure our valiant press and politicians will breeze over the fact we've just been subsidising the US's nuclear arsenal. I'll continue to grind my teeth to nubs as every last cunt ignores material reality again. Fuck the lot of them honestly, real establishment scum.

Noooo you don't say? Well thank god you're here to explain that or we'd have to work that out all by ourselves!

Congratulations to everyone who put in the hard yards to ensure calling this "white supremacy" - which is exactly and precisely what it is - is completely unacceptable in polite liberal society. You've insulated yourself from the consequences of awkward dinners with your kids though.

Quite literally "first they came for ..." but liberals can't stop thinking that giving the fash an inch will make them happy.

Basically there was all of this deranged, toxic shit churning away on the Internet at astonishing intensity. And then we had to lock everyone in their houses because of a deadly virus. with nothing to do but go on the computer and climb the walls, getting slowly crankier and crazier.

Labour should ask Jonathon Ashworth or every Scottish Labour candidate in 2015 how this played out for them. Because it's only going to get worse and "where are they going to go?" Has no obvious answer until it's too late.

Britain by and large operates via a handful of people who all went to the same two universities and oscillate between media and politics jobs , which is testament to its dedication to press freedom, but draws the line at a documentary partially narrated by the son of a bureaucrat

Petty of me to repost myself, but I got blocked by the dipshit I replied to, so no guilt here. Anyway, if you're asking why no one will justify Corbyn's stance on Ukraine... Well here is the obvious answer.

This is especially funny when you consider that Cyrillic developed in Bulgaria.

I'm going to note that I'm not a pacifist myself, unlike Corbyn. Then I'm going to note: negotiation from the get go would have taken place while the US backed Ukraine rather than selling it out. Next I'm going to say, labour are in government.

An irritating arsehole, newly divorced, goes to his GP, feeling glum. GP: "There's a man, Jon Richardson, just like you, who has a sitcom of his life you might find cathartic, surely yours can't be any worse?" JR: "But doctor..."

Conservatism as a project is basically a quest for a wise and benevolent king who will uphold tradition, keep the money flowing to the superior people and stomp hard upon the scum. And when push comes to shove, they don’t care that much whether the king is wise or benevolent, or about tradition.

It shouldn't need saying but proxy wars are never conducted with the interests of those impacted in mind. When the driving imperial power decides it's done, it's done. It seems people really struggle with the obviousness this time, but it was ever thus.

All of the journalists who scream about online anonymity making politics coarser are currently in a spin that someone who has their mobile number on their van would do this.

And let's not forget, they're cutting investment and services to the point of collapse to fund the war machine. Wasteful, cruel, economically illiterate? It's the new, new labour way.

What did we say in 2018/19? 1) They’ve seen what a politically engaged public looks like and they do not like it one bit. 2) Once they get their way, they will decry our apathy again. So they set about creating a terrific stench to deter the public from even following events, let alone participating

Like I say, it’s dawning on people that they may have fucked it a bit

You know Starmer has fucked it into the sun because the polprofs and professional centrists are talking about Corbyn again. Lads, you did it, this is your prize. Enjoy your ashes. Stop crying about getting what you wanted.
