A thread about protesters

[Blue Mist]

Mods, mods - tell him! Don't worry musty, I'm maintaining my annoying stance in most other political threads on here. Not gone full libtard on you yet ;-)

If it was Rascal bullying you, you can tell me I will keep it a secret between us. I've kept the other thing you told me secret and that was far worse, so you know you can trust me.

So the satsuma, whisk, goat and marigolds wasn’t just a rumour then?

I haven't had a drink in 5 years. Britain makes me miserable.

People 'realise' they are the best option? What planet are you on?

We're all guessing. Some of us realise what that means. The rest are doomed to have to pretend their whole lives. Pretend you really know what's best, although it's simply all you've ever understood, a habit. Pretend you know what's real, what would happen elsewise, when really you're just pandering to yourself, covering your own arse for reasons you don't ever challenge yourself over.

Pretend you're a man, you know what that means. Because you don't. No-one does. Get that? Maybe it takes an adult to understand what that means. Not another fake 'man' hiding in the comfort of his miserable relationship with the world. What does it take to be a man? Men have to protect women? Are you nuts?

People have to protect people. From people. That's the reality.

And we all bear that one. People who don't kill are awful as well. Dreadful, vicious cowards will have let this guy go on behaving like a **** for YEARS. All of them, big, strong, 'men'.

But no, go on telling us how the reality is everyone needs protecting from the people screaming that we're not doing enough to keep each other safe. Because everyone's on their own around here. Once you've got a job, and a missus, that's just about the way you'd want it. Especially if you are in the housing market. And that's the main reason Tories are Tories. Because that's what they picked up from their Dad, and that's where they are in life.

Miserable men. Like my dad, like me, like anyone who thinks Boris is a good example of manhood. Like anyone who falls for any of this fake strong signalling from Patel and any other shitty Home Secretary.

Miserable failures, repeating our parents, only less impressively, like ever decreasing circles. No thought, no challenge in those lives at all.

Miserable as fuck, and quietly happy as shit with everyone else being as miserable.

Dad told me there were no great answers. And he was right. And I've personally been burned by the left, and by society's 'caring' types. But nothing compares to the miserable denial he fell into in his dotage, and it's the exact same miserable denial all the rest of you are falling into, because you have no challenge to yourself or appetite for new ideas that will challenge you or inclination to bear the slightest amount of anxiety that you might not have been 'the thing' you set out to be all along.

Laughing my arse off. Like Khaldoon when he talks about UEFA. You've fucking had it, the lot of you. I saw it when I was growing up, I forgot for about ten minutes after Cameron shared pictures of his disabled child, what a fucking unreal country this was, what unbelievable misery we voted for and demanded.

This current lot have got you on TOAST, because Daddy Boris is funny. And you're as powerless to him as you would have been to your real dad when he made three year old you roar with laughter for the first time. You would give him anything. But he ain't your dad, he doesn't love you, all he knows is how to take the money and spin you another wind up when it's time to deliver.

Current conservatism: has no respect for parliament, the fourth estate, the law. And that is pretty much all this country has going for it, apart from generations of wheeler dealers.

Great Britain is a fucking brilliant beautiful country, with brilliant beautiful people, which has a brilliant beautiful culture.

I can’t fucking stand this pitiful brand of country hating lefty nonsense.

“Britain makes me miserable” “this country has gone to the dogs” “Britain is fucked” “you’re fascist” “he’s far right” “that’s nationalistic” “Boris is an evil Gammon” ““Keith” Starmer is a neo-liberal” “boo fucking hoo”...

Miserable people speak volumes about themselves, not about the country they live in, not who’s in “power”, not about anything else that’s going on around them... merely, simply, solely, about themselves!

Money means nothing, it’s fictitious. Health makes you happy, not wealth; physical and mental fitness dictates your life, not some randoms swanning about in that big building near the Thames. If you’re fit and healthy, it doesn’t matter what else is going on because you’re succeeding as a human.

The only way you fail is when you aren’t fit and healthy. Being fit and healthy can be achieved even by the poorest in society. Healthy food is cheaper than junk food; walking, running and cycling is cheaper than having a car. There’s no political excuse for a human living on the island of Great Britain not to be fit and healthy.

If you’re a person that thinks that politicians are more important to your happiness than what you can do for yourself and your close-ones; then it’s you that has your priorities wrong.

Politics is a mere, and almost insignificant, side issue to life in Britain. Political parties, political ideologies - like money - are fictitious. They are created in the fantasy of human minds. It all means precisely fuck all. Someone can live their entire life happily, successfully, brilliantly and beautifully no matter what’s going on around them.

I’ve worked with refugees and political migrants who’ve come to this country and it’s a fucking dream for them. They love it here, they appreciate what a great country it is. They must look at the language of the misery-merchant lefties and think you’re lunatics. This miserable country hating bollocks from our own citizens is quite frankly an embarrassment. You all need to fucking wake up and wise up, you don’t know how fortunate you are!

100% agree,

I can’t fucking stand this pitiful brand of country hating lefty nonsense.

You are mistaking hating your country with wanting a better country.

“Britain makes me miserable” “this country has gone to the dogs” “Britain is fucked” “you’re fascist” “he’s far right” “that’s nationalistic” “Boris is an evil Gammon” ““Keith” Starmer is a neo-liberal” “boo fucking hoo”...

The rain makes me miserable, the country whether you like it or not is in the midst of a public health crisis which could potentially turn into an economic disaster. Fascism is on the rise, it always rises when there is an opportunity to sew division, that is a fact.

Miserable people speak volumes about themselves, not about the country they live in, not who’s in “power”, not about anything else that’s going on around them... merely, simply, solely, about themselves!

You are mistaking miserable miserable and unhappiness. I can be both and neither dependent on many factors. Yes that is about me, that does not mean i have to be happy with who is in power and how they are governing the country. Dissent is an important part of the democratic process. Without dissent you get authoritarianism.

Money means nothing, it’s fictitious. Health makes you happy, not wealth; physical and mental fitness dictates your life, not some randoms swanning about in that big building near the Thames. If you’re fit and healthy, it doesn’t matter what else is going on because you’re succeeding as a human.

Unfortunately not everyone has the benefit of being healthy, Being unwell is a huge driver of inequality and a country should be measured by how it treats those with least not with how it treats those with most.

The only way you fail is when you aren’t fit and healthy.

And you call people miserable, try living a life of poor health and then hear people like yourself indicate you are a failure. That is crass, it shows a distinct lack of empathy and smacks of the "i am alright Jack" attitude that has pervaded in this nation since the days of Thatcher.

Being fit and healthy can be achieved even by the poorest in society.

It can, more can be done to help them achieve them that. Make lesiure centres free for instance

What if you are not fit and healthy?

If you’re a person that thinks that politicians are more important to your happiness than what you can do for yourself and your close-ones; then it’s you that has your priorities wrong.

Their decisions make a huge difference to people's lives whether you agree with that or not. In the last round of Osborne inspired austerity my welfare was cut by 25% , the reason being i am not quite severely disabled enough. If you live that life then the decisions of politicians have a massive impact on your life.

I also work with refugees and they love this country as much as I do and I am one of these "misery-merchant" lefties that for some reason you think hates this country. My mind boggles at where you are getting this nonsense from, because you have been propagandised into believing the false equivalency of wanting better = hating.

100% with this.

Although you can go out and junk food (ready or frozen) cheaper than the healthy stuff

Something I wish the protestors against violence against women would look at this case. It's a clear cut case of "He's a copper therefore he gets away with it (In this case got a light sentance imo!)". He treated women like shit, killed this particular lover, then made out she'd stabbed him.. All because she was going to talk to his wife - Totally his fault, and rthe lies he concocted made it even worse. This really should have been life!

In fairness he makes some good points as do you, I think generally peoples idea of what is important can be out of whack. We all forget what is important sometimes and can be a little self serving. One thing this pandemic should have taught us is how the small things are more important than we think.

Good company in a pub and a walk run cycle in the open air pisses on drinking at home, sat in a car or a membership to a gym.

No I have to disagree. Without knowing why the jury came to their decision, they cleared him of murder. He didnt get away with anything because he was a copper. He was convicted of/pleaded to manslaughter. The average sentence for that is about 6 years. A sentence of 13 years is therefore double and probably right for the charge, becasue he was a copper and because he was violent towards someone.

I am not defending him, I cant believe he got away with manslaughter but it had nothing to do with him being dibble.
