“The game does not state, for example, that questioning mass migration is inherently wrong.”

Of course not. It's all done through insinuation, implication and association like any good nudge unit tactic. To outright state it would undermine it and also remove the level of plausible deniability that let's them say that.

Well, yeah?

The message was from women who have seen men move radically right relative to themselves. They just never had perspective because they process everything in relative terms.

Yeah, when the entire culture became more overt it was nothing more than an increase in potential victims for them across many more isolated groups. So they can do what they do and change circles more easily.

They need to be strung up by their intestines.

And you can roughly split those into two groups. The submissive bottoms and Gad Saad's sneaky fuckers trying to be a "lesbian" with a free strap-on. The former is the larger group by a long way, the latter and fringe cases are the majority of issues. They're all mentally ill, but I do have some sympathy for the former. How many are on that path because women don't create enough quality tops for them? If anything the current social dynamics have flooded their field with shitty fake tops.

Ehhh, there's a LOT of overlap. Even the trannisary guard are largely bottoms.

I've had a cursory look at it when that was going around, it wasn't just Gen Z. It was somewhere in the region of 18-25% of ALL pregnancies, across all generation divides, since it was legalised and readily available, so Millenials were hit hard by it too. It's been a fairly steady number throughout.

He cannot think outside of that framework. It really is that simple for anything related to Starmer, always.

Half wrong. It is currently "propped up" but that's because the US has a shit ton of debt to refinance in '26 (8 Trillion). The squeeze will follow that because then there's no need to flood the system to manipulate interest rates until next time.

AI is current tech darling but it's independant of the current circumstances. Once it plateaus they'll focus on quantum processing again to bypass limitations and throw money at orbital data centre infrastructure (orbital payload delivery, solar, battery, satellite to terrestrial network solutions). They'll probably be the main focus for the next 8-10 years. Data centres will be first use and the test case for further development, so the infrastructure around it is the better investment over the centres themselves, like AI, if we're looking very long term.

Same, I just always saw it as the expectations are more of a given and that we'd be fine regardless. So any denigration or dismissal would be of no consequence. Which was honestly fine for me at the time, because I half believed it myself. They just failed to see beyond any given instance of it for the absoulte barrage of crap that it actually was. Justified in the moment but oblivious to the totality.

The writing was on the wall before 2014, even for us. The US was probably much more brazen about it but I'm sure you'll remember schoool/Uni being all expectation and no encouragement or assistance. That same attitude was reflected all throughout the workforce. It was more gender-focussed than race-focussed because of the population numbers and a subdued race based consciousness over here. 2014 just seems like the time enough people got fed up of it all.

Good luck, it's tough as shit even when you have options. I basically live on the edge of civilisation and rely on public transport which doesn't get me very far for work around a dead tourist area where there's almost nothing and nobody hiring.

At least the guys at my struggle session just leave me to it because I come across as competent. It's still fucking soul destroying.

Or their redefinition of racism, conflation of religion and race, redefinition of indigenous (this one is at least being fought hard currently), biological realities... the list is endless. All of them paired with appeals to authority as they get pushed by NGOs and other politically adjacent organisations. Perniciously peddled with a religious zeal and fervor. Couched in academic language to appear erudite and a result of balanced thought or consensus, with 15 pages of context and poor rationalisations to disarm and dissuade those that look beyond the phrase they've coined or the term they've redefined.

They have a serious issue with things like right wing populism because it is a direct competitor to what they do. They're reliant on being able to sway people with charisma and clout so that they don't look beyond the face of it. Any cursory look behind the curtain and the house of cards crumbles, so they fracture and expel those that peek. There's a not too dissimilar thing happening now with the current splitting on the right. That's whatever to be honest, just par for the course. Using it to clear the deck of rot and corruption to start building on a solid moral foundation again is what we should be using right wing populism for. MAGA won and, in their euphoria, everybody forgot the game is much larger and much longer than that one victory.

On that note, I'm tired of conceding language.

They'll always conjure up new words and phrases to disseminate their ideas and we'll always use them to mock and deride That much is a given.

But when they latch onto commonly understood words or our particular parlance to twist and corrupt it, we need to hold onto it much tighter than we have done recently. It's all bold words but soft lines.

Burial at sea is directly against their religious burial rites. Adding insult to injury is the point.

Nobody agreees on everything, news at 10.

There's still a plethora of things they do agree on and should be able to work towards a common goal concerning those things, even if the reasoning behind it differs. Turning each disagrement into an entire schism that fractures everything into smaller groups that will never reconcile is exactly what killed "the Left" in the end. You could even argue it's initiated and influeneced by outside forces. I don't personally think so, I think everybody has been steeped in that sort of landscape for so long that they've adopted the habits unintentionally.

Have your infighting, have your internal discourse and discord but don't forget the larger things at play that brought everybody together in the first place. There's decades of mess to fix and letting power slip through your fingers over this is retarded. It's a colossal task and it's something that has to be chipped away over time as we discover more rot in the process.

This is going to be a lifetime's worth of work, don't get preoccupied with the pebbles when we have boulders to remove.

There were two, one of which was a scam job. Shorlty before they were crowdfunding £260k for some legal fees. After the synagogue they just happened to catch fire and set up a crowdfund for, what do you know, £260K.

That archive link had the door set on fire and that was the extent of the damage, the other was a car outside got burnt. The door was masked muzzies though judging from the audio in the footage.

I don't think they realise that this means one next pssible step from the locals is to make it so hostile that it could be considered a violation of the migrants' human rights to place them there.

This has mostly been the ladies, the women and girls, that have been out to protest peacefully. Don't give them a reason to send the lads out. They won't be so peaceful.

"They hate us" is not a valid reason to declare war. And we should try to figure out why they hate us, and see if we can resolve that.

There has been so much endless meddling in the region that there can only ever be a dishonest enemy. For generations the entire region has been bombed, overthrown, installed and bombed again. Of course "they hate us" after all of that and more.

Stop meddling and let the region collapse or collect its strength. Make an honest enemy of them. If "they hate us" still prevails then the argument has merit and these people will get the war they're after to thunderous applause. But that can ONLY be true if they're an honest enemy.

Bonus points, allowing the region to gather its strength could lead to a muslim call to return to the region.

I don't give enough of a shit about the whole thing but that's more being against half arsing it. Glass it or leave it and maybe glass it later. The current rhetoric is just dumb given the politics and war circumstances in play.
