This is, I think, correct. This is the heart and soul of this sort of politics, this is exactly what it's all about for them. And it makes me despair of being able to share a society with them.

Every time I read an FDR speech it breaks my heart to see someone who assumes his audience is actually capable of understanding complex ideas and interested in learning more.
We have got to make politics intellectual again. It is the only way that societies thrive is when politicians have the capability to actually think and reflect deeply:
![I confess that I always had difficulty with interpreting the Biblical precept to love our neighbours “as ourselves” until I read some of the words of C.S. Lewis. He pointed out that we don't exactly love ourselves when we fall below the standards and beliefs we have accepted. Indeed we might even hate ourselves for some unworthy deed.
None of this, of course, tells us exactly what kind of political and social institutions we should have. On this point, Christians will very often genuinely disagree, though it is a mark of Christian manners that they will do so with courtesy and mutual respect. [Applause] What is certain, however, is that any set of social and economic arrangements which is not founded on the acceptance of individual responsibility will do nothing but harm.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xbnsfdtxoothg654ujxe3p25/bafkreicrdgbtvm54qnmttwe6crhxwt4be5v3izjmqtnvlxmaljwg5wolai@jpeg)

I remember when there was a discussion on Twitter about Shein's manufacturing practices and some apologists invented all sorts of fantastical machinery and technology to avoid facing the more horrifying truth. Reminds me of this comedian's joke.

This won’t even work as intended. The people objecting to refugees aren’t asking for people to have to stay longer and jump through more hoops before they’re naturalised. They point blank want anyone not exactly like them kicked out.

One way to track Tottenham's quality in possession this season is to count the number of passes that Xavi Simons - Spurs' playmaking no.10 - is receiving in what I'm going to call "The Danger Zone"

Wait, what?! It’s 4-0 on about 90mins and the young striker from your academy wins a penalty? You let him take it FFS!
And yeah. Of course, Richie misses. Bye, Richie.

Who was it that used to refer to the RW masses as "programmable meatbags"?
They were told inflation is the Most Important Thing, so they dutifully echoed that back. Then they were told immigration is the Most Important Thing, so they swung that way, like a school of fish.

Vance ironically proving that actually not knowing what other people are saying can be an advantage.
Would hate to live next door to this piece of shit and be able to understand every nasty, dumb word that his stinking mouth emits into an unconsenting world.
