'Let he who is without sin cast the first stone' *Crickets*

There are around 161 million voters registered to vote in the last election, and probably 1/10th of them regularly watch cable news. The majority of those viewers watch Fox, and were fed absolute lies, garbage, half-truths and extreme right-wing propaganda in the lead up to the election. The...

Everything he's been accused of and more, but Trump above the law meaning the USA as a democracy is on its knees. One of the pillars of a healthy, functioning democracy is that no one is above the law. As an organisation, the US Supreme Court has a responsibility to uphold this principle in...

Fuck Around; Find Out.

It's utterly depressing.

In the UK, yes. That process in the US is looking decidedly shaky right now.

Zappa was a visionary, and he was 100% correct.

So much for those famous 'checks & balances' the US have relied on for years to keep their politicians in line. To borrow a quote from the Manic Street Preachers: "And if you tolerate this; Then your Constitution will be next".

I just hope we can prove our doubters wrong.

The only hope now is that someone 'accidentally' leaks the mountain of evidence they had on Trump and his band of merry co-conspirators.

Always reminds me of the Keegan quote: "Sol Campbell there, using his strength. And that is his strength. His strength".

Not far off being 'must win' territory this one, if only to shut the media up. If we lose six on the bounce, then the vultures will be circling. I think we just need a bit of luck and a moment of magic to get us going again.

There is a certain rich dictator with a fondness for defenestration that I'd be quite worried about if I were Elon.

Musk is a very dangerous man. His mum alluded to the fact he has a 'developmental disorder' in a social media post back in October, and yet there are practically no guardrails to keep his seemingly megalomaniacal behavior in check. I don't know who is pulling his strings, but the whole...

FAFO.

Very possibly. There were van loads of the thieving critters that used to turn up and swamp the local Tesco's and Asda when we lived in Lincoln. There are quite a few camps within about 30 miles or so of Lincoln.

Not only that. There is absolutely nothing to stop Right wing billionaires buying up left-leaning media outlets and making them sing and dance to a different tune. https://www.cnn.com/2024/11/25/media/elon-musk-msnbc-spinoff-cable/index.html Also, the same RW billionaires control online...

It's going to require a Herculean effort given that R's are going to pack the courts at every level

If Project 2025 is allowed a free run, the election just gone might very well be the last. Sow discord, Ramp up the rhetoric, Crash the economy, Blame it on 'them' (Dem's/migrants/bloody foreigners; whoever), Turn up the heat, and when the people 'push back' Invoke Marshal Law and install a...

I remember years ago, there was a lump of concrete in wooded area Wythenshaw Park that someone had Carved something along the lines of 'Here lies the body of The Incredible Hulk'. I wonder if it's still there? Probably completely grown over if it is.
