Real-world data and clinical trials. Future epidemiologist. Biomedical & (ex-)chemical scientist.

Not an instant internet expert, a real one.

Mad like Byron, lefty like reality. Abject failure. Can be serious, often not. There will be jokes & swearing.
P.S. I am certainly not picking on you. So apologies for rant!

I am..."mildly piqued" by the general Faragosity around us! ;-)

His cruelty results from systematic abuse of children aimed at producing these trauma-caused and trauma-causing behaviours.

He's the damaged product of a damaging system and so is dedicated to further damaging others.

He has succeeded because of this, because this is valued and rewarded in the UK.
November 26, 2025 at 10:36 AM
He's the perfect product of a system intended to produce Farages. His only crime (by their standards) is being slightly impolitic (for now) in his expression.

People like him cannot conceive of owning past crimes or changing them. They have been educated out of any nascent ability to do so.
November 26, 2025 at 10:28 AM
Exposure of Farage childhood crimes is too easy to dismiss, and so is ineffective even if they stop Farage the individual.

He has been rewarded for his cruelty, bullying, and bigotry. Features created in a system deliberately designed to do so.

Of course he dismisses it. He can do nothing else.
November 26, 2025 at 10:25 AM
Read on! I've been ranting a bit! ;-)

It's so much worse than he (individually) hasn't grown out of it. He's been actively rewarded and encouraged for the behaviours he learned and displayed as a kid. Behaviours learned in a system deliberately designed to create and nurture those behaviours.
November 26, 2025 at 10:18 AM
Generation after generation of these traumatised, abused, damaged, traumatising, abusing, damaging people infest the UK.

Their cruelty is the fucking point. They are made, deliberately, into bullies and bigots and lauded for it.

Pop the Farage boil and another replaces it.

Tackle the root.
November 26, 2025 at 10:16 AM
Do you really think that Farage is the first schoolboy bully and bigot to be "exposed" as such?

Oh it might get *him*, he's a thin-skinned weak little fucker, a very easy target. It won't stop a single fucking thing. Boris is, I assure you, no/little better. Cameron probably not much different.
November 26, 2025 at 10:14 AM
Exposing Farage as lifelong scum is easy. Easy to do. Easy to dismiss.

Go after the reasons he exists, the reasons his bigotry and cruelty are rewarded. Tear the whole lot down. Until you do, every fucking think piece is simply masturbation. Outrage du jour.

Until then, you're part of the problem.
November 26, 2025 at 10:13 AM
Want the REAL scoop? The REAL controversy? The REAL reasons this aspect of UK society was created by, and protects, Farage et al.?

Then learn how and why the abuse of kids in private/boarding schools is a foundational ideology of those institutions and this nation.

Farage is a standard product.
November 26, 2025 at 10:09 AM
We know about ACEs, CPTSD, how being in the care system can ruin a kid's life (or, yes, save it) etc.

Like it or not, if your politics prevent you from realising or admitting this happens to boarding school kids too, deliberately as part of the system, you perpetrate and permit further abuse.
November 26, 2025 at 10:05 AM
Yup. He suffered such terrible consequences for his cruelty and bigotry...
November 26, 2025 at 10:02 AM
"Poor little rich kid complaining about being raped/bullied/abused".

Of course other people have it worse. Doesn't make rape not rape or abuse not abuse.

All you're saying is "the abuse of kids is okay if they were sent to institutions to which I am (rightly) politically opposed".
November 26, 2025 at 10:01 AM
Worse, the prevailing attitude of the time was that the abuse was good for you. This was not an error. Exposing it or complaining about it was punished. In no small part BECAUSE OF THE PRIVILEGE!

This seems to confuse some people.

A kid is a kid. Even a privileged one. Abuse is abuse.
November 26, 2025 at 9:58 AM
BTW you might get the impression I'm bitter or I don't like private schools. You'd actually be wrong. I simply don't pretend that the bad does not exist alongside the good.

Also, the pupils of those schools were sent there as kids. Their privilege did not immunise them against abuse. Recognise that
November 26, 2025 at 9:56 AM
We want private school bullies and bigots to rule us. We've been gaslit for generations to believe in their "superiority" (I assure you they're not!), in the fact that they are right to rule, that it is their right to rule.

Farage is a pus-filled boil on the arse that is the boarding school system.
November 26, 2025 at 9:55 AM
Farage has succeeded here BECAUSE of his cruelty and bigotry, learned at one of the great educational institutions of this country.

Feature. Not bug.

How much did the concerns of a few teachers stop him? Correct him? Change him?

In the UK being like Farage is a means to success.
November 26, 2025 at 9:52 AM
There's a straight, bright line between that culture and now. The links are well researched, well demonstrated, the psychology is known.

Avoid THAT and the Farages of this world can dismiss childhood wrongdoing as trivial.

He was not unusual. Perhaps a little in expression, but not in nature.
November 26, 2025 at 9:49 AM
if we're not willing to tear a hole through the prejudices and cruelties actively encouraged within UK society, many reinforced deliberately by the boarding school system, attacking Farage's schooldays without reducing him to ash over his current lies, fascism, racism and wanton evil is a failure.
November 26, 2025 at 9:46 AM
Pissing on about Farage's schooldays is giving him an easy out.

I used to shit my nappies as a baby, now I don't!

That's Farage's easiest out. "I'm not that guy", then obfuscation and lies follow. Attached to the "why am I being held to schoolboy actions?". It's so weak.

He's a fucking racist NOW
November 26, 2025 at 9:44 AM
Ask why the UK lauds its Johnsons and its Farages.

Ask why people not of that class still tug forelock and defer to the vileness that emerges in some people educated that way.

Farage was a schoolyard bully and bigot. Of course he was. You don't get to be what he IS without starting there.
November 26, 2025 at 9:40 AM
Ask why that kind of bigotry, naked sneering cruelty and arrogance is encouraged and persists. That horrific inhumanity is positively rewarded in the UK.

Ask why the private education system to this day (to a much lesser extent) still has prominent institutions that inculcate and encourage it.
November 26, 2025 at 9:37 AM
I'm not exculpating Farage, the man is ambulatory scum. He was a kid sent to that system, his reaction to it (revealingly) was to bully, berate, abuse, and be cruel. That's the measure of the kid he was, but he hasn't changed or learned. His childhood habits serve him now as an adult.

ASK WHY!
