Motion - the country is completely broken

The difference is that more people are brainwashed than ever into believing it’s acceptable or normal, and many of them ‘support’ the party which is causing us all this destruction. No sane or rational working class person could possibly vote conservative at the next election but millions will.

I don’t blame the brainwashed. The brainwashing is well oiled machine.

Everyone gets a vote & yet depending on where you read your news, the gas lighting begins.

I’m over in Aus but on my calls to my elderly parents who worked damned hard, my dad 7 days a week & 12 hours a day to get by are now thinking nurses are cheeky bastards.

They’ve been brainwashed for 80 years as we all have. The lying & deceit & stealing & cheating.

They are compassionate people who’d help anyone but by the time they’ve got to the poling station they have no idea what they’ve voted for.

So democracy, don’t make me laugh. Especially when you are working so hard to make ends meet, the thieving cunts will point at some poor fucker arriving on a dinghy to take your share of fuck all. Obviously not telling you that the family in the dinghy had a middle class lifestyle before being bombed into oblivion & taken over by ISIS.

It’s the same propaganda that makes fans think City have cheated FFP yet no nothing about the rules. The people telling the story have a lot to answer for.

This notion of brain washing needs to stop as its driving people down a rabbit hole, unless people accept the truth and stop deluding themselves that people can’t act in a destructive manner without being conned into doing so they will never get to the depressing truth.

A small percentage of people may well fall for a certain amount of propaganda but the majority are being told precisely what they want to hear. Their bias has long been set in stone. They don’t get moulded by dubious organisations seeking to turn them, they actively seek out views that have long been held close to their hearts.

I’m sorry mate I don’t agree with this, obviously there are exceptions to the rules but it’s carefully crafted.

My views have changed massively over the years. I would say my values were always caring, hard working but my outlook was TV & newspapers for years. Then I started reading & listening to different forms, how I think changed that changed where I got my news.

My dad would get his paper & he’ll see Corbyn next to Gerry Adams & that’s it. As easy as that.

We will be back in in ten years n my opinion. I don't know anyone under 30 who voted for it. Most of those I know that did are old and don't like Germans for the obvious. The rest, thick or racist or both.

I voted to leave. I lived in Germany, am fluent in German and wouldn’t consider myself “thick” or “racist”. I am old though (55). Think it will be longer than ten years before we return. If there’s anything left to return.

He doesn’t need to, I’m pretty sure the likes of Russian Twitter/Facebook etc have people who do it for him.
Kinda negates the point though, not sure I have any interest in getting into a back and forth with anyone who doesn’t condemn everything the man and country in general stand for.
Enjoy your evening.

In the context of Britain being 'broken', I was comparing how safe people are when walking in urban areas after dark.
Several recent events indicate that this country needs to get a grip on safety in urban areas, especially for women.
We've even had a police officer who kidnapped, raped and murdered. And others who share phone images of murder victims.
I condemn Putin but he isn't the be all and end all of what Russia stands for.
 
All you need to look at is the lack of law and order in this country to tell you how much it’s on its arse - end of

I was talking about the oldest generation who were influenced by the second world war. Not everyone who voted leave is thick or overtly racist but everybody who I know who is thick or overtly racist did.
