Can we agree that the billionaire who coordinated a network of the most powerful and connected individuals on the planet, all built on a foundation of endemic child abuse, is the problematic "elite"? Or is it still your minimum-wage barista because they have pronouns?

Juries are not perfect.
Many of the worst miscarriages of justice have followed jury trials.
But the merit of juries is not so much the power they have, but the power they prevent others from having.
They mean a judge cannot just nod-along with prosecution evidence and give a guilty verdict.

If multiple people can remember someone being horribly racist, even by the appalling low bar of the racist 1970s, that is entirely noteworthy.
As an adult Farage fanboyed Enoch Powell - the most infamous racist of the 1960s - and long cited him as his political hero.
And that's noteworthy too.

I’m very happy to judge him on the bollocks he spouts now. While bearing in mind the racism that’s based on.

All the supposedly progressive people saying 'Nigel Farage's racism doesn't matter. His fans love it'.
It matters whether the leader of the party leading all the opinion polls is an outright racist. It matters if he called black people 'wogs' and said 'gas them' to Jews. Not everything is a game

When you look at all the tech and influencer bros, it's really striking how little joy they have in their lives. No appreciation for nature or art, no creativity or human relations, pretending to themselves that enjoying things is 'weak'. They might as well be fucking Cybermen.

I’m just going to block anyone attempting to justify or excuse pirating books. Times are hard, yes, but absolutely NO ONE needs to steal books. Libraries exist. There are umpteen works legitimately in the public domain. You don’t need to take income from authors trying to scrape a living.

If the government can retrospectively apply immigration laws to refugees, it can also make things you did in the past that were legal at the time illegal and throw you in prison for them. I could make retrospective taxes and bill you for what you made ten years ago, for example.
