  • What has Prince Andrew to do with mass immigration? Never read such nonsense, but what else can I expect from leftist 🤷‍♂️

    What has immigration to do with one British person stabbing another. Seems even your complaining about non-sequitors is biased. What else can we expect from the right wing except selective outrage.

    As you’re engaging in bad faith allow me to: what we should really be worried about is white on white violence. Knife crime in the UK isn’t all that bad, when you remove white gang activity, even more so when you remove men-on-men violence.

    All of which to highlight, your position isn’t a serious one genuinely held. You don’t dislike non-sequitors, you engage in them. You disliked their argument, and it is convenient for you to say you don’t like non-sequitors in this moment. You aren’t serious. This culture war nonsense, the British right loves so much, is merely a distraction from the Epstein class robbing us blind.

    That’s, that’s really cool. I don’t think I’d reccomend due to me not giving important decisions the actual thought required and that’s led to a very sub-optimal life. I suppose the goal is to train your instincts to make the optimal choice every time, I fail there

    I am very ‘in the present’ though, very few anxieties about the future. I do drive as a hobby, which naturally comes with lots of planning. I have fewer regrets about the past; I do hold grudges, famously unforgiving, so I fail there too.




  • When people talk about punching Nazis in the face, they are talking (mostly) about people who were not even alive in the 1940s, let alone official members of the Nazi Party.

    That’s correct. That’s because they’ve learned the lessons of history.

    You’re the one connecting the celebration of bombing and “murdering” (I guess you think acts of war and judicial executions are murder) Nazis in the past to punching Nazis now.

    You’re the one who said ‘Nazi’. You could have said ‘racist’, you could have said bigot, you chose your word. You made that connection by choosing the words you did.

    I think it wasn’t OK to stab this victim even if he called the other guy a slur for Pakistanis.

    We agree, don’t stab the guy to death. What’s that got to do with punching Nazis? Do you think the victim was punched? Do you think the victim was a nazi?

    But others advocate extrajudicial acts of violence against “Nazis” where it’s their rules and perceptions that determine who is a Nazi and who is not.

    History, lessons. The people that visited violence against Nazis are heros or villains? Why is ‘Nazi’ in quotes now?

    Bombing Birmingham because it might have some people with Nazi-adjacent political opinions seemed like a logical extension of your train of thought.

    Only if you believe Birmingham is full of Nazis. Else, you got some weird logic.

    You were mocking me for thinking punching Nazis is wrong because it was celebrated to kill actual Nazis during war and for crimes against humanity 80 years ago. So let’s resume the bombings then.

    Correct, I was, I am. History tells us Nazis are good or bad? History tells us appeasing Nazis works or doesn’t? What does work against Nazis? The lessons are there, easy to learn. Bomb whom, where are you declaring there to be Nazis? Is bombing punching? I said punching is mild compared to what we used to do, that’s all I said. Why is the internet all gas no brakes all the time?

    What? Not everyone listens to the radio. Of those that listen to the radio not everyone listens to that station. Of those that listen to the radio, and listen to that station, not everyone listens to the same shows. Of those that listen to the radio, listen to that station, listen to that program, you need a guy to think “I better write that number down”. We’re talking a segment of a segment. I think it was national radio though, so there was plenty of coverage.

    Some people did hear the number and some didn’t, the people that did gave the number to the people that didn’t . It’s easy to see how it would work.

    Aside from the voicemails were some testimonials, either about trying to give a miss call immediately. Or, more awkwardly, the guy had already saved the number from the radio show (as the radio fake line), in a surprising amount of self awareness. So it didn’t always work, just enough to fill a segment every now and then. It was just a satire of pick up culture in the mid oughts… Between the 3310 and the iPhone anyway

    That’s why I barely think at all. If I won’t remember the decision next week, I don’t care at all.

    Drives my fiancée nuts, she’s agonising about which takeaway to go to, but can’t ask me because I’ll just say the first one she names. I got 7 years out of that before she noticed though: should we A, or B? We should A. Did you just say A because I listed it first?

    My problem is that I can’t identify what I’ll remember next week/month/year. So I knee jerk life changing decision, which mortgage provider? A sounds good.
