Joined up thinking is an anathema to populists.

It's critical for populists that people reach a furious state of cognitive dysfunction BEFORE they figure out the actual consequence of the lie they are being sold.

Of course, everything was just peachy until TODAY

If the welfare system can classify people as too sick to work, surely we can classify people as to thick to vote?

To be fair, this could be a list for many things. All of them bad!

When I joined my regiment most of my soldiers were Geordies, the coloquial form of address was boss.

One of my boys, Shefford, aka shingle man, was from London, he said

"The boys from Newcastle call you boss, would it be alright if I called you guvnor?"

We settled on Sir.

innit

You only adopted the English language, I was born into it

😆

You are not wrong.

But there is that voter who might just give a second thought when confronted with the reality that the promises they are betting on are coming from a racist, putin puppet who would sell his country for a few quid.

I sometimes think we need a reform government becuase only eperiencing that hell will educate.

Hard times create strong people.

Right now we are ruled by people with opinion not conviction.

That's the strategy isn't it?

At this point Putin has to be thinking that every pat on the back is reconnaisance for the knife.

Will OpenAI be the textbook example of sunk cost fallacy?

They've cracked it, they just need a few billion more and they will have achieved AGI.

In fact here's the documentary ready to go...

A competent Russian agent wouldn't be quite so obvioius.

I'm not saying he isn't a paid asset, I'm saying he's about as good at being one as he is at:
- honesty
- fatherhood
- fidelity
- business
- empathy
- common sense
- personal hygiene
- not being a sexual deviant
- not being a sexual predator

At the very least he should be mocked for doing for free what his chum was paid for.

He really is poundland Trump -- he does a great impression of a paid Russian asset.

Stop sitting on the fence, tell us how you really feel....

😁

Wow, given how the press hounded Corbyn imagine what they are going to do to an ACTUAL antisemite.

Let's see shall we?

100%

Almost as if the union of the people that participate in this nonsense and Switzer's target demographic is an almost perfect circle.
