That’s a really simplistic take. He’s an intelligent man but he’s fallen into an echo chamber of nonsense, it’s easy to say that only dumb as shit people are radicalised but just look around, that’s bullshit.

I don’t understand how so many people would VOTE for someone who reliable falls for and promotes so very many obvious conspiracies.

They don’t think it’s conspiracies though, my brother has recently fallen down this hole and he’s fully convinced that all the papers are complete lies, TV news is just fiction, and he knows what’s really going on. In this world millions of kids are being sold to hollywood sex rings and Biden is covering it up, and they’re terrified that their kids will be next. They believe everything he says.

While this is an interesting article, I feel like in the current state of twitter Alt right accounts are promoted whatever you like. When I was on it I followed feminist type pages, local news, some left wing comedians, I was still frequently offered Andrew Tate and the like.

Awful woman

My local nextdoor has an issue with non white people in vans. Like normal builders eating their lunch and Sharon down the road is posting “Anyone know why this man is here? Stayed there for 45 minutes, very suspicious, might be stealing dogs”.

I absolutely agree. I did however listen to the audio of him gloating over the attack on Nancy Pelosi and her husband and it made me sick. I could never celebrate violence but I have a little less anger for those who are striking out at Trump.

You can add lots of toys and treats to keep them amused. Remember at a rescue place each cat has much less space than a room, sometimes a glorified box. It would be really sad if you have to send them back, but I will say I’ve adopted a lot of adult cats and it’s never happened to me. There’s a chance, but I think it’s fairly low.

Have you considered fostering for a rescue? That way you can save a cat and you can get a better idea how your cat will react.

Most cats do like company if introduced very slowly. Like over a couple of months. If it was me I’d probably try it.

Rockets are cool, they go to the moon, there’s not really a fun use of the word ‘bomb’

I don’t think that would be allowed in the UK, you can’t tell kids to eat bombs.

You call it a bomb pop? We call them rocket lollys, I assumed that the rocket part would be universal.

While I see the good bits of Proportional Representation, it does give extremism a foot in the door. Remember this is the voting pattern in a FPTP system, one of the tabloids even encouraged reform voters to switch to the Tories because of tactical voting. Changing the voting system gives these far right anti human rights parties a much better chance.

We’re up to 922 according to that link. That’s insane.

I’m always surprised by governments who keep the same leader for a long time. In the UK we got 3 in a year once, none of them do a full term, or not for a long while.

I’m getting paywalled and can’t be bothered getting around it but I’ve read a lot about this from the researchers who study it, it’s quite interesting. Is it possible that cells can have memory? Of course. Could energy persist beyond the physical? Sure.

I wouldn’t call myself a believer but I’m definitely a curious observer.

She tried calling the dog, then used an electric collar, and NOTHING worked?? Those are two things that are known not to work, she hasnt even made a tiny attempt to train the dog, then got annoyed when a hunting dog, specifically a bird dog, wasn’t safe around birds.

So what you’re telling me is she’s incredibly stupid as well as evil?

I used to work with a blind guy, when everyone else did sex ed at school they used to put him in a seperate room to do worksheets as they assumed he wouldn’t need it.

His two kids kinda disproved that one!

I think you’re confused between which part of a socialist dictatorship is socialism and which part is dictatorship.

Most, if not all countries have a level of socialism, US has less than say France, who have less than Norway, etc.

Poor woman. The women there have been through so much.

There’s something wrong in the research here, if she had her daughter at 14, and the daughter is 14, then how can she be 26?
