Me: Cuba isn’t so great
You: you’re endorsing the rule of Elon Musk…

🙄

I’ve really got under your skin
😊

Has no one ever pointed out your foolishness before?

Views on the Oxford comma?

You very famously didn’t check the source did you?

Nor did you explain why ~60 other countries have better life expectancy than both USA & Cuba. (None of them are adherents if either brutalist capitalism or doctrinaire communism).

Two things can be true.
- US policies towards Cuba are harmful
- complete state control of an economy is hugely inefficient

I appreciate binary ideologies are comforting for the hard-of-thinking. But that doesn’t make them a good reflection of reality.

Think about what this means:

To the men shot for the crime of walking around their neighbourhood, or their land;

To their families;

Their communities.

What this means to the prospect of peace in the Middle East.

Iran has a terrible régime.
As does Israel.

And now, under Trump, America.

When the US admits that they killed any “military-aged men” who walked within 3km of a downed pilot they mean any boy lanky enough to be a teenager and any middle-aged man able to walk unaided with a cane got shot in the head for the crime of walking.

Why are you talking about Cuba?

Turns out that killing a bunch of Iranian leaders who proudly worship martyrdom is about and effective an incentive as introducing the death penalty as a deterrent for suicide bombers.

A diet of peas?
This is beginning to sound like the plot of Woyzeck.

Is it? You provide no source for this claim.

60 countries have longer life expectancy than both USA & Cuba.

Maybe you don’t realise: USA is a complete mess of social inequality, poor access to healthcare. But only idiots pretend N Korea or Cuba are better.

Is it you?

It appears that some men may live in such a confident expectation that consent is given, that they can overlook the fact that consent may not have been given.

I’m unfamiliar with the term ‘boofed’. Does it imply the event was consensual?

“Trump has some very odd ideas”

I think we can stop that sentence there

Tbh the causes of WW1 are a lot clearer than why the Roman Empire fell.

The Trump question seems to be on the less clear end of the spectrum.

This reminds me of my uncle who had lots of conspiracy theories about the signing of the agreement that partitioned Ireland. The killer question which deflated him was: ‘so what?’ If this were proven true what would change. Nothing. Facts on the ground at are facts.

Deal with the present reality.

My Easter reading:
"..the Lord said I was hungry and you told me I could make a meal for 30p, I was a stranger and you told me to fuck off back where I came from, I was sick and you said I should get private health insurance..."

You’re a cat?

Dane Bowers’s reputation traduced

This was the obvious response, wasn’t it?

That just shows how clever those aliens are at hiding their moon bases.

(the Soviet Union disappeared a few years ago, you may not have noticed)

I rarely believe these posts are real. But this one I believe.

I broke up our toddler group from antenatal classes by serving popcorn at a birthday party. One kid loved it but couldn't say it, so was shouting "Cock porn! Mummy! I love it! More cock porn!". Some of us collapsed laughing but the others really didn't see the funny side.

This is the truest truth of all the truths (and there aren't many).

But he is probably 100% accurate…..

It would be a lot weirder if Shabana Mahmood was googling images of Michael Gove…

Wasn’t that Paddington bear?

Theology was never my strong point

What does Google AI say about historical patterns where bad leadership destroyed a nation?
