Your data suggests: Little to no automatic preference between Straight People and Gay People. Surprised me given how terrible many straights are  ronya posted:This makes sense for a movement whose founding generational trauma is not austerity, or the GFC, but Iraq Opposing Iraq was good too, and a lot of that domestic authoritarianism came out of 9/11 and unpopular wars, but for probably selfish reasons "less likely than Blair to want to test Muslim fetuses for radicalization in utero" is more important than "less likely than Blair to gently caress about in the Middle East because God told him." There are 7 suicides mentioned throughout the Bible. All but one (Judas) are in the Old Testament.

gently caress carpet. My current rented house is carpeted everywhere except the kitchen. I have 2 kids, including a toddler, and I live in Devon, which is pretty much rain every day at certain times of year. I just resent having to put so much time and money into maintaining someone else's carpet fetish.

It's training you to sort items singly into good/bad categories, and then testing your association of good/bad and factors such as skin colour, age, etc. I mean, that's the entire point of the thing.

MrFlibble posted:Hmmmmm I wonder what the difference between austerity and Brexit is? I wonder if one is massively more popular than the other? What you are claiming is that left wing governments are effectively impossible if the right can use a wedge issue to split our block, but if you know you have the only sensible answers it's ludicrous to throw your lot in with idiotic ideas when their stupidity inevitably turns them toxic. Where would you say the capitulation should stop? What the gently caress do you want Labour to do if the media convice the [bored, loud] part of the public they want hanging back for example? At some point you have to be the public loudspeak for your own vanguard. We've managed it on the economy and if it wasn't working on the Brexit shitshow the answer was never to just give up and join in the madness.

Guavanaut posted:Personally the best thing about 2015 Corbyn was his lifetime opposition to Blair's domestic authoritarianism. Corbyn has adroitly leveraged concerns over police cuts and crime as an angle of attack, and he has explicitly endorsed the paradigm of visible policing. this is what slamming David Cameron's Home Sec and then eventually PM May for people not feeling safe due to police cuts means (and back in early 2016 there was no evident surge in knife crime yet) compare, e.g., Corbyn in the age of Blair quote:Mr Corbyn confirms that Labour now listens less to outside organisations, preferring instead the confidence of the police. "Labour used to be heavily influenced by organisations like Liberty, the Howard League, the Bar Council and the Haldane Society," he said. He traces the change back to Neil Kinnock's decision in 1986/7 to rewrite the aims and values of the party on the basis that it could only get elected by appealing to a right-wing constituency. As a result, now, he says, when senior police officers, "unelected civil servants, set a political agenda [they aren't] criticised for interfering in politics. Instead [their] contributions are often welcomed by the leadership". Corbyn, today: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p06pqwb0 ronya fucked around with this message at 19:12 on Feb 1, 2019 |

We should not pander to them. I mean, we're for changing their ideas right? I'm a socialist. The majority of the people in this country aren't. They're not going to change their minds just by accident. Presumably at some point they'll need to be persuaded, which will at the very least involve putting forward views they don't initially agree with and making a case.

which is not OLOLOLOLOL CORBYN FLIP-FLOPPING, I stress - people's views evolve; just ask that noted Marxism Today contributor A. C. L. Blair. It is, however, I think fair to say that Corbyn, as leader, is quite willing to be pragmatic (if you don't like the T word)

Perhaps necessary to be more electable, but there's a parallel debate on the worth of that going on right now ITT. The only thing I am confident in is that millions more police under Diane Abbott would be better managed than any number of police under "I'd deport my own dad for taking jobs from a white bus driver" the Egg, but it seems like a very tabloidy direction to go in. Like "they need more police and to stop being so soft" is a certified ham man opinion.

nonetheless, that was 2015 newly-anointed Corbyn back then the buzz was "pft it's because he's got a nobody-believes-he's-no-longer-a-blairite Andy Burnham as his shadow home sec" but Labour maintained that angle even with Literally Diane Abbott

I'm not entirely convinced that it's going to be purely a mandate to hire more police, but "hire more police" probably polls and communicates better than "give the police more money" which is actually what is needed.

i really do not understand why properly funding the police is considered authoritarian obviously it can be a component of authoritarianism but basically if one sees policing as a public service then it's trivial to argue for its funding

A school have to demolish a nursery/reception building after a pretty lengthy legal battle. There's obviously a good argument that the building shouldn't have been constructed, but some of the arguments laid by the opponents are a tad laughable: quote:The opponents reminded the court of the value of open space, particularly to those of modest means, even if it was not superficially idyllic or justifying an elegiac description, and the role of open space in “spiritual wellbeing”. On a site visit, they drew the court’s attention to the noisiness of the western part of the churchyard compared to the quieter areas further east, including the location of the nursery. The only people I've seen using that space are people smoking crack. Not to comment on the spiritual wellbeing of crack users, of course. Although I'd guess many of them count as "those of modest means".

notaspy posted:Latest survation is showing 45% leave, 55% remain I seem to remember a very similar poll, sometime memorable. Can't for the life of me remember exactly when though. When would it have been memorable and important to see a 45/55 split on the brexit issue? The world may never know. What might be more interesting, and useful is to see how many people put BREXIT as the most important issue and the people who put STOP BREXIT as the most important issue. Now, I happen to know of an interesting way to obtain these results. What are the numbers for the liberal democrats and what are the numbers for literally every other party?
