Its funny because if (in the event of parole uprising) the megarich flee to new zealand it wont matter, we can still seize all their assets that arent in new zealand and then theyll just be people living in the middle of nowhere with no income

TomViolence posted:Why does "making tough choices" always seem to translate to "consistently choosing whichever outcome leads to the most possible suffering for the most possible people?" It really is amazing to me. its part of the stiff upper lip thing where the rich convince everyone else that its a virtue to put up with poo poo whilst their own situation gets better and better

Darth Walrus posted:In really neat news, the University of Birmingham have found fragments of a Koran in their archives that appear to be almost as old as Islam itself. The researchers and local imams are appropriately hyped. They announced this months ago but it's on display now until the end of the month. I will probably head over at some point, its a pretty cool discovery

The only people who will lap it up are blairites looking for an excuse to join their natural party the tories.

Using more left wing rhetoric whilst pursuing right wing policies will make them seem like hypocrites which plays in Corbyn's favour as he is seen as very genuine. Commentators act like people make their political decisions based on media coverage entirely, as if they don't ever see or feel the effects of policy. Or as if they're stupid enough to believe him saying "I want everyone to be secure" whilst they can feel themselves becoming less secure. The only way this positioning would work would be if the policies they're going to run with now would actually be good for the majority of people in this country. e: vvv Our political scene is exactly like the USA but on a delay

I really don't understand it, I mean, keeping them illegal is wildly expensive for like 8 different public services, whereas legalising them would allow all their mates to immediately start turning a fat profit off selling them. What's the reasoning? Political donations from alcohol and tobacco companies

Who does he think is responsible for this period of stress?? The rich gently caress over the workers, the workers look for someone to blame, the rich scapegoat someone else. Over and over this happens through history.
