"Sure they got rid of due process but at least the trains to jail run on time" is legitimately a popular mindset on this site.

As I was just saying. Very easy to imagine Kemi in B&Q, asking the guy behind the counter for a tin of elbow grease and a long weight.

real 'stop what you're doing and watch this' video.
On 27 Nov, ten of the UK’s leading experts briefed 1,250 politicians and other leaders with the latest implications of the climate crisis for health, food, national security and the economy. It barely registered in the mainstream newsmedia but here is a brilliant summary from ‘Just Have a Think’.

I just don't need to know what the Telegraph has written about Dungeons & Dragons. It's a newspaper for people who are frightened of samosas.

I get a surprisingly large number of responses saying “This is because the public are stupid” but for real, if that was the key issue, then it wouldn’t be necessary to constantly shitehouse people with the most misleading and inflammatory messages they can get away with. There would be no need.
It is IMO not possible to operate any kind of meaningful democracy when your national press is a joke and a travesty, but your mileage on that may vary. I think it’s incontestable that it is impossible to govern well and effectively, while being in hock to these pantomime clowns.

the genAI bubble relies on you conflating the genuinely tremendous potential of using machine learning for e.g. image recognition in radiotherapy, protein folding, simulations in power systems etc with the child abuse image generators and schizophrenic delusions generators

Seeing how much of the right-wing on Twitter is just bot farms, kinda lays bare how much hate and hatred is a project that needs to be constantly maintained, a fire that needs to be fed all the time lest it go out for a moment, so much time, effort, and resources to keep people angry and hateful.

Talking about 'assets flowing around the economy' shows a better understanding of economics than i have come to expect from anyone in the media. Genuinely gets me excited to hear this after decades of 'magic money trees' and 'maxed out national credit cards'

Today, on Transgender Day of Remembrance, we remember the transgender lives lost to violence.

With the ending of permanent asylum, taxes on foreign students, two U-turns on income tax, a refusal to listen to business concerns about hiring costs, again I ask ‘who are Labour for?’ What is the vision underlying all these choices other than responding to last week’s polls?

We (the world at large) are making enough fucking babies. We're cool on the babies. We need to start FEEDING the babies and VACCINATING the babies and WELCOMING the babies to various places, but we have babies out the wazoo. They just might have different melanin levels

Dunno man, this sounds like a bunch of comfortables experiencing what it's like to be a pig person for the first time. Being on the left this has been my experience of the poltical media ecosystem my entire life. Centrists & libs have been hosing me in pure unrefined shit for as long as I can recall

I've noticed the opposing team's fans only cheer when the opponents score on us. To win those fans over, I recommend we score on ourselves repeatedly; that will surely make them so happy they'll start supporting us. And I'm sure all our fans will keep cheering for us—who else is there to cheer for?

Once every 20 years or so, the director-general of the BBC is forced to resign for being insufficiently rightwing. Alastair Milne in 1987. Greg Dyke in 2004. Tim Davie in 2025. The great irony is that the BBC was in all cases profoundly biased towards established power. But just not biased enough …

Moore rather gave the game away on Today just now when he mentioned climate change as one of the things on which the BBC should be impartial. Treating the truth and lies as though they are equal isn't impartiality, it's an abdication of the most basic journalistic responsibility
