Photography doesn't have the same religious injunction that illustration has for whatever reason, so there could be an ISIS messageboard but it'd have to be heavily moderated for paintings and cartoons.

At least Katie Hopkins tweeted a glowing hot take:


guardian posted:

The tweet was directed at Good Morning Britain host Phillip Schofield, who walked across Westminster Bridge in “defiance” following the attack on parliament earlier this year.

It read: “22 dead – number rising. Schofield. Don’t you even dare. Do not be part of the problem. We need a final solution. #Machester (sic)”.

Tony Blair says he wouldn’t want a left-wing Labour party to win an election
The former PM says he wouldn't take the 'route to victory' if it was left-wing
Jon Stone @joncstone Wednesday 22 July 2015 10:31 BST

Tony Blair has said he would not want a left-wing Labour party to win a general election.

The former prime minister said that even if he thought a left-wing programme was the route to victory, he would not adopt one.

“[Labour] misunderstand the difference between radical leftism, which is often in fact quite reactionary – and radical social democracy, which is all about ensuring that values are put to work in the most effective way,” he said.

“Let me make my position clear: I wouldn’t want to win on an old-fashioned leftist platform. Even if I thought it was the route to victory, I wouldn’t take it.”

“Even if you did [win] it wouldn’t be right because it wouldn’t take the country forward, it would take it backwards. That’s why it’s not the right thing to do.”

corbyn got 313k votes in 2016. 9.3 million people voted for labour in 2015. the relevance of the leadership election to actual popularity in the party is pretty much zero.

i guess a phantom majority of non citizens built the NHS, public housing, British Gas, National Rail etc.

So: guy was a britin of libyan descent, and ISIS claimed responsibility but got details of attack wrong (meaning they probably didn't do anything themselves).

He was also already known to authorities. But what for? I doubt it was for major criminality, because he was a second year university student studing business. If it was because he posted stupid poo poo online, that's all 3 of my predictions met.

School shooters and wannabe ISIS fighters always seem to come from virtually identical class and family backgrounds, religion aside, so it's not a super hard prediction. Basically put every business and engineering student on a watchlist.

automated luxury gay communism would get rid of the law of value but for now

we simply have to make sure that the law of value inputs all the "externalities" into the costs that makes inhuman treatment of labor profitable

we are basically subsidizing slave labour and the destruction of the environment. Once we can put those costs into production accounting a lot of poo poo becomes unprofitable

Picking a Labour leader who, along with his closest allies, are compromised by a history of supporting or sympathizing with terrorists and their causes is an awfully foolish risk in today's world. Terrorist attacks may not be preventable but they are foreseeable, most people would agree that it's more likely than not that terrorist attacks will be perpetrated in the future.
