He's just this guy, you know?

Happily married.

Human rights, animal rights, socialism and environmentalism. No other interests (apart from the usual).
Unbelievable.

Luddites were against shoddy goods being mass produced in sweatshops, at the expense of tradecraft, labour & working conditions.

The ruling class has always sought to portray them as fearful ignoramuses terrified of progress.

As ever, the loudest, most well-funded voices got to set the narrative.

Very nice, proudly wearing a symbol of execution. I thought the cross was bad enough.

His idea of 'terrorists' being the type of killer he doesn't like.

Those on his own side, it goes without saying, are Good Killers - even when they bomb starving civilian refugees living in tents.

He's in the TWG club. A very exclusive club.

The Tall White Guy runs virtually every CEO position and most of the executive spots. Same largely holds true in government.

Must be white, male, and 6'4" minimum.

This exclusion leaves an extremely small pool to choose from - and boy, doesn't it show.

That just shuts down the whole system.

They're 'smart', you see.

"Ooh! TV off, I shut off rest for you!"

Then it takes 10 minutes to get back to where you were. Queue adverts...

Bill Hicks was right. Philip K Dick foresaw it.

Jeez, you accuse me of c&p, then post boiler-plate propaganda like that within seconds?? Ok.

My world isn't one where bombing starving refugees in tents is OK.

Nor is bombing hospitals, or torturing child prisoners by the thousands.

But then, we live in different worlds. So you're ok with it.

Copying and pasting? You are clearly projecting.

I care nothing for Hamas, Hezbollah etc. I think for myself - but you cannot understand such concepts, because we live in different worlds.

I care about humanity. But again, you cannot conceive of
of such a simple idea.

Different worlds.

Of course there is no genocide, because in your world, Palestinians are not people. So how can there be a genocide when no people have been harmed?

In the Nazi world, Jews are not people. So no Holocaust could possibly have happened.

Do you not understand what you have become?
December 6, 2025 at 12:25 AM
This will doubtless shock you, but not liking genocide doesn't mean one likes Hamas. Mind-blowing, eh?

In fact, one wonders why Hamas was so well supported an financed by Israel in the first place.

Holocaust deniers behave rather like yourself, you know.

Myself, I condemn genocide wherever it happens. I never struggle and twist around desperately denying the bleeding obvious, which the entire world has witnessed.

Shame on you that you're incapable of doing the same.

None so blind as those who do not want to see.

Excuse harder.

Of course. All lies, lies, lies - bought off by a tiny, besieged, improvised and occupied country.

Makes sense!

Only Benjamin Netanyahu tells the truth. Honest, decent, and a total humanitarian.

A good thing he has people like you to help us ignore mountains of dead children.
December 5, 2025 at 9:09 PM
Fine, let's call it what it is.

Mass murder of > 100K people, the vast majority unarmed non-combattants.

Depriving a population of food, water, medicine and the necessities for life.

Attacking hospitals, medics, and aid workers in direct violation of International Law.

And you're ok with that.
December 5, 2025 at 8:44 PM
Judging whether its genocide needs "expertise in military warfare"?

Quite a surprise to lawyers, academics and judges who actually JUDGE such things.

Let nobody lacking such expertise ever judge the Holocaust a genocide again, right Michelle?

I know genocide when I see one - and its apologists.
December 5, 2025 at 8:41 PM
Excellent thread.

What has happened in Gaza and to the Palestinians in the last couple of years, has given the absolute lie to a notion that our western governments have the slightest respect for International Law, human rights or peace.

Any benefit of the doubt on this is gone. Permanently.

Can't see what it was that's being quoted. Just says 'blocked' - maybe that's only for me?

Do you think there are people in Israel who support this? If so, who brought about this extremist majority? Who killed Rabin? Who spits on church priests in Jerusalem day and night?
December 5, 2025 at 1:03 PM
Zionism is a racist, destructive ideology based on Jewish supremacy, and all decent Jews will recognise and reject that - every bit as much as I am white and utterly reject white supremacy.

GB news pumps lies and disinformation into living rooms, despite gross viilation of OFFCOM rules.

The Mail, Express etc. has been pumping out lies and disinformation for many a long decade.

A number of European countries allow rt.com without them falling apart, apparently we're too fragile?
