Perhaps if we just concede to their every demand? We already gave them London, how about we give them Liverpool too?
We must just open our heart in compassion for their situation and give them just a little more.

Wow. Such a profound response. All those facts. Those deep, considered thoughts.
I can see I really am dealing with a very special mind here.
I get what you mean.
But.
Mandela was sentenced because he was head of a terrorist group that had conducted many acts of terror culminating in a bombing that killed a bunch of people.
In his absence his wife Winnie Mandela took over and was the mastermind behind many "necklacings".
Yes, Imp is a victim political persecution. No he is nothing like Mandela.
Guy, you know that the Sweden that you are defending is dying, right? That the demographics of the Swedish population have an end date for Swedish culture?
Whatever you like or don't like about Sweden will end in your lifetime. The people or leaders (it doesn't really matter which) invited in a literal army of invaders to out-breed and out-vote the Swedish people. Their days are very definitely numbered unless they literally pick up arms to fight off the "immigrants", which they won't. They would literally rather die. To my mind that is a glaring flaw in the national character.
So it may look adequate. But it isn't. It is dying day by day. Go and visit it before it is gone so you can tell your grandkids what it was like.
Visit London while you are at it.
Orwell certainly grew disillusioned with the socialist movement. 1984, which was written while he was afflicted with (eventually terminal) illness certainly shows that.
1984 is very much a critique of authoritarian government and the human condition. It might as well be aimed directly at the Socialist governments of Europe.
I don't dislike gay people. I do really hate the degenerate promiscuity and that they all promote the 'lifestyle' to each other.
It is possible to be gay without fucking 150 faceless strangers a year. Or any strangers.
Kevin Hart gutted Smith onstage during his own comedy act. It was goddan brutal.
It has been worse for Germany, the UK and Sweden. But yeah. Three generations after that thing, and the country ends.
I would say that thing is a symptom not a cause, but women becoming a political voting block has certainly accelerated things. Women now are the single largest voting block in elections, and, as a group, they think with their feelings. It makes them incredibly easy to manipulate.
Moreover, policies that make it easy for women to be single have guaranteed outcomes for their votes. Single women vote predictably far left.
Why anyone would trust Vox to be within a mile of a serious business undertaking or public project is beyond me.
Still, I continue to be amazed at the triumph of the press over observable facts. Perhaps the problem is with me?
And thus they dominate the board game space, gaining complete control. Just like they did with Tabletop RPGs, just like they did with publishing, and Reddit. Etc.
It isn't about being right, it is absolutely about power.
What fucking rights don't they have?
Why don't you yanks have a Chief Whip? Does no one have a job of ensuring party unity and consistent voting?
"If you cross the floor on this one, we are going to take this very seriously. You will be kicked out of the party and your career is over. Yeah, perhaps you can win your seat as an independent. I doubt it. Toe the line."
There was a bombing at the Boston Marathon.
Redditors "investigated" and concluded a particular young man did dunnit.
"We did it Reddit!"
Nope! It turns out it was a pair of middle eastern youths.
Aforementioned particular young man turns up dead. Perhaps he killed himself before being accused of a terrorist attack? Perhaps? He was mentally fragile before being believed a mad bomber, terrorist by millions.
No. Hold up. Sorry to correct you here.
Literally Who 2 took footage from video games and then used it as evidence of shit that wasn't happening. She then concluded that women were victims.
That isn't "bad opinions" that is lying for profit.
No judgement, mate. I have relatives that rode the government biofuels subsidiary for about a decade.
Bio-Diesel, electric cars and now hydrogen fuel; the real business.odel is taking tax dollars and putting them into your pocket.
Electric cars are a shame. With a different battery chemistry (LiFePo3 or whatever) and niche usage ( short travel delivery or commuting) they could have a lot to offer. This current push is going to shit the bed and ruin it for everyone.
The energy density of compressed gas hydrogen is just laughably low. The number of trucks it takes to haul around the equivalent of a truck full of diesel fuel as energy stored of pressurized gas hydrogen is pretty staggering.
It has been a while since I did a review of the state of the art, but I seem to remember something like 30 times the number of trucks.
Even if it was only five times the number of trucks, that is still a prohibitive cost for transport logistics.
Cars that run on natutral gas are a gas engine with a new tank and a modified intake manifold. It is not a complicated conversion, butit does require certification and a regular tank testing like any gas bottle.
LNG burns very clean compared to gas or diesel. The exhaust is almost entirely CO2.
Gasoline isn't a cryogenic liquid. It doesn't boil off through a double walled vacuum flask.
A tank of Hydrogen will boil off to be vented to the atmosphere in a matter of weeks, depending on the tank size.
Okay, a lot of confusion here.
-
Hydrogen is t a source of energy. It is a way to store energy.
-
The energy density of hydrogen makes it prohibitively inefficient with regard to storage and transport. Hydrogen has a tiny fraction of the energy density of diesel. This gives hydrogen powered trucks a much lower range than diesel or a reduced cargo capacity. Pick one.
-
Hydrogen produced at home by electrolysis would be a low pressure gas. It takes as much again more energy to compress and cool the hydrogen into a cytogenetic liquid. This energy is lost to the atmosphere when the hydrogen is burned.
-
A hydrogen powered car is just na electric car at about 25% efficiency with extra steps. The (small) advantages of range are not worth the cost and difficulty of dealing with cryogenic liquids that boill off even when stored in a double walled vacuum flask.
-
Modern industrial scale hydrogen production is from crude oil. That is why hydrogen is produced by the Shell Oil Company. It is dirty as fuck. I will tell you why if you ask.
The point remains. Some cultures and some people are more sexually virtuous than others.
De Sade was (at the time) and has always been held up as a extreme pervert. He died alone and penniless on the run from a death sentence. What he did was not embraced at the time, whereas BDSM is a cute hobby now. A woman could walk a man on a leash downtown in a major American city and do no more than raise a few eyebrows.
Law is downstream from morality and culture. I agree that there should be legal change. Bring back At Fault Divorce!
But a good start would be for men to start noticing that women with high body-counts are terrible wives. Next would be to notice that university graduates almost always have high body counts.
Bring back marriage as a contract between a man and a women before God.
From there we can move towards public parades of adulterers; both sexes for all I care.
But your idea that it was all the same debauchery forever? I don't agree. I just think that rich bastards always had more opportunity to do what they wanted, even if it was against the moral consensus of the day. To quote a certain movie: "It is good to be the king!"
Those were the aristocracy. French royal courts etc, which were famous for their degeneracy.
The Puritan movement and, later, Victorian sensibilities were a response to that degenerate bullshit.
I remind you that the British Empire reached its height in the Victorian age.
Want to point to the orgies of the late Roman empire and declare that everyone, everywhere has orgies?
Reminder:

You know that is exactly how they lost New York to the Democrats, right? They flipped the whole state forever by flooding it with illegal immigrants. "Sure we will stop. Any day now. Just give us one more concession."
Razorfist did a rant about it.
Oh, they are. Disney's "Hercules" was banned in Greece. Perhaps this will also be banned.
The thing the Left understands and the Right does not: There is no truth but power.
