centrist commentators who expect their own class’s drug use to go unpunished, enthusiastically stirring the pot for a “war on drugs” culture war, just to see off a surging party with some left aspirations, is it? 🤔

At last! Now they've finally realised what AI is for, perhaps they'll stop trying to foist it on every other aspect of our lives

Panel of an old Roger Mellie cartoon - from about 30-odd years ago - in which he is presenting a 'wanking machine' which he has invented for Tomorrow's World. Drawn by Chris Donald.

She’s pretty much had to be dragged to the interview chair against her will, and cynical me is thinking she’ll still cancel it last minute

The security services were heavily involved (Integrity Initiative) in destroying our first hope of mild democratic socialism in 40 years. It’s democracy they’re scared of.

If the West is so keen on exporting democracy, why are they are so keen to say who can and cannot stand in the Gazan elections?

Did you see any Israeli hostage come out unable to walk? I didn’t, but I’ve seen Palestinian hostages missing legs and arms, beaten, barely able to stand.

And besides all of that, drugs should 100% be legalised and regulated, coz no product ever got safer when organised crime was left in charge of production and supply

Yep, an excuse to criminalise people that bottom line need help with addiction.
Plus it’s a sneaky way to exert control over particular demographics they don’t consider to be worthy, fuelled by racism and classism imo

Greens treating drug prohibition more like a public health issue, instead of a criminal one; gets my vote 👍

I think many people, libs included just want a return to the status quo where they don’t have to see maimed children on their timeline anymore and it’s all fine as long as they don’t see it
