corbyn is going to get rear end-hosed because he is an uncompromising marxist and it turns out you have to be flexible on a lot of issues to be liked by dozens of millions enough to be voted into power

hakimashou posted:He should have stepped down when David Cameron did, immediately after the brexit referendum went the way it did. As leaders, he and Cameron both had a responsibility to guide their people away from that decision, and failing to do it meant they had both failed as leaders. david cameron wanted to be in the EU more than corbyn

Vox Nihili posted:Right but one path offers at least an eventual solution, whereas eternal austerity offers an incredibly lovely status quo for the foreseeable future. In a period as short of a decade the nation could potentially recover from a major default. actually hyperinflation and stuff that comes with it can potentially knock a country out for a decade or more. a decade is a pretty reasonable definition for foreseeable future in my opinion

Tacky-rear end Rococco posted:this hyper-rationality that Marxists ascribe to themselves, the ability to peer into the true nature of things and see beyond the hallucinations of the hated liberals, has not been much evidenced in practice. you'd think it would give them some practical advantage to be able to see the world as it really is and not be afflicted by these delusions, but...nope, apparently not. this post makes people angry itt because it's true

Pener Kropoopkin posted:So you think Thatcher broke the back of the British working class for fun? so you think thatcher breaking up the unions that led to a three day week, constant power blackouts because mining didn't produce enough leccy to supply the grid, and that also completely refused to negotiate with a friendly labour government, you think that it wasn't those things that led to thatcher being elected and the unions being broken, it was an evil capitalist conspiracy to destroy them for profit instead lol?

thatcher doubling on an economic policy that didn't do so well for political reasons was bad, but it wasn't as bad as the entire 1970s when the unions went completely batshit and ground the country to a standstill

The whole point of controlling labor is to guarantee the profits of capitalism. it was the unions being economically disruptive for an entire decade for not very good reasons that made thatcher and her policies popular enough for her to get elected in the first place

rudatron posted:Many migrants to America, at the turn of the 20th century, they would often change their names, to a more anglicized version, to try and better fit in. That's generally not seen as acceptable today with those who want migrants, assimilation is interpreted as kind of oppression, and so it's done away with. But the result of that, is that no integration takes place, which is causing the counter reaction we're seeing right now. i hear this american dude in a suit with a frog pin stuck to it and a slick haircut may have some quick fix ideas
