I don’t have enough maths to be able to follow Wiles’ proof of Fermat’s last theorem. But I do have enough Latin to know that “this margin” is a mistranslation - a schoolboy error.

So according to the right wing media, wanting a society that isn't run by oligarchs, trickle-downers, climate-change deniers, fascists, racists, warmongers, grifters, homophobes, transphobes, xenophobes, Brexiters and sociopaths is "fantasy politics". What condescending nonsense.
And today it's the turn of The Times to try and patronise us all.

The patronising is the giveaway.
If you don’t agree with something, be an adult and lay out your argument.
No need to belittle your opponent.
Referring to people you don’t agree with as “kids” reveals who you are.
Now why would someone on a Murdoch paper have to resort to that?
Beats me.

I really like Bernie Sanders’ elder statesman era.
Unlike too many older politicians who cling to power and perpetuate an outdated political culture, Bernie is actively mentoring the next generation of progressive leaders before he retires.
It’s how it should be.

The thing to understand about this is that this catastrophe in the UK has redounded to the political benefit of the very same people and political movement that pushed for it! Extremely perverse.
I wonder if the United States can learn anything from the last time a major industrialized country decided to isolate itself from the rest of the world?
