Neocons must be so jealous about the decorum and civility they had to put on before doing their regime changes

Again: Trumpianism is conservatism that's sick of having to pretend it's not just naked racist will to power. They've got as far as they have by correctly working out there are no consequences for behaving like this, and they will continue until there are.
probably one ray of hope here. the fact that these guys are too lazy and imperious to manufacture consent, combined with their base's conspiratorial bent
They’ve been so bad at communicating reasons, even fake ones, for doing this that even your average low info American is like “probably Epstein stuff”

Keir Starmer says he wants to establish facts by *watching Donald Trumps press conference.*
People said giving him a second state visit was a genius move of strategy - really seems to have paid off.
Special relationship - alive and kicking.

I cannot emphasize enough that the attempts to anthropomorphize an algorithm is a fundamental act of journalistic malpractice and an intentional act to shield the people responsible for this. It's fucking shameful.

Here's your regular reminder that Steven Pinker is -not- some centrist wise man.
He's a conservative who whitewashes far-right talking points, a long time participant of the Bari Weiss/Heterodox anti-"woke/progressive" disinformation network, who boosted grifters from science racists to Orbanists.

Even though I think Stranger Things peaked in the first season, I thought the last episode and overall ending was really good, however I do think what with all the arm-raising and eyes-in-the-back-of-the-head stuff The Undertaker (the wrestler) has a good case for suing them

Then: GTA3. I know it hasn't aged brilliantly, but I was 14 when it came out, and it was mind blowing. Me and my mates played it every weekend until Vice City came out
Now: MGS2. People hated all the cutscenes, and they couldn't have been more wrong. I actually watched it all again last year

It's not surprising that a man who resigned over his abusive "jokes" about Diane Abbott also thought a British political prisoner a "joke" and colonial reparations a "distraction". The problem is that this casual racist disregard for human rights was, and remains, at the heart of Starmer's project.

(2) Ovenden, McSweeney, and a slice of Starmer-ite MPs do want to slash disability, unemployment benefits, Green subsidies etc. But they were too cowardly to campaign for it (preferring to lie there way to govt) so now struggle to get it done, blaming 'Stakeholder State' for eating their homework

It doesn't really get more, "Fuck you, pigs," than widely circulating a photograph of an individual resigning in disgrace for being an openly crude and bigoted moron with no self-preservation instinct, then waiting a few weeks and going, "Let's put him in a circle and whack him on the Opinion page."

The Times is the worst. People reading the Sun and the Mail do on some level understand they are the Beano and the Dandy, for bigoted cunts. The Times is the British ruling class talking to itself in increasingly Mein Kampfy terms, and readers believe they’re getting the unvarnished truth.
