The Jewish population was a tiny minority.
How did they become the largest population. Replacement!
The Great Replacement!
Ethnic Cleansing!
You see, history matters.
A simple question proves much.
You know now there was a huge population shift and the Muslim Palestinians were the losers.
Get it?

There is no difference with the ID you need to provide at any age.
I can see a use for one if u are travelling within the European Economic area.
But we can't do that for to brexit.
The idea of the police being able to ask u for ID without suspicion, is the loss of a human right.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 2d

So why do u need another form of ID?
Why should u also have to carry it around with u?
It's that having to carry it around that worries me.

I hope Trump doesn't get to finish what he started.
God help us all of he does!

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 3d

Choice is the difference.

Simon u do matter and so do your rights.
Never give them away.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

They prove enough, that’s all u need.
Do u have a licence?

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

You trust this Government and all the broken promises?

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

That’s a civil offence, not a criminal one.
Be sure you have the tickets, it’s not hard.
Previously Labour wanted to charge for IDs.
It’s about rights that people died fighting for.
Don’t be so hasty to give them away.
If u want an ID, that’s fine.
Forcing IDs by law is something more sinister.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

That doesn’t make it right, do u trust the Government?

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

No you don’t!
You can provide Bank Cards and proofs of address.
Being forced by law to carry ID, infringes your rights.
A police officer can’t ask u for ID unless they have reasonable suspicion that a crime is being committed.
That in theory protects u and stops the unlawful Police actions.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Who does it benefit?
Specifics please?
Why does the Government need you to carry any ID?
Again, Specifics?

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

There are perfectly good systems in place now.
This mish mash, is not going to be helped by another card.
Digital or no.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Frankly Zach, if you bother a scrote like Piers Morgan that much.
You’re not doing a lot wrong

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Doesn’t that concern u Simon?
You missed my point, I referred to authoritarian rule.
How do u know it can’t do harm?
Why does a Police Officer need your ID, if you are not breaking the law.
You know this will be linked to your Mobile’s tracking abilities.
I’m sorry, but that’s exceptionally naive.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

What about turning your back to them when they pass you?
It’s an obvious 'Fuck You’ and a silent statement.
En masse, I can imagine it being quite effective as a visual display.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Who gives a shit?
This man, like his family, come from a family line that were involved land theft from the poor, 100s of years ago.
This land and the wealth it generates, needs to be returned to the people.
The Royals have spent 100’s of years in this privileged position.
It’s time for them to go!

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

I hope u asked Pete about his Transphobic views.
Is he that smart if he bases his Trans views on hearsay and incorrect information?
A potential Presidential candidate has to be above prejudice.
Look at what we end up with, if this is not the case.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Stupid Hegseth doesn’t consume enough whisky to result in alcoholic poisoning.
Unfortunately.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Why is nobody suggesting a universal health system, free for all?
If that Orange Dickhead can find money for vanity projects, he could find money to improve the lot of the poor.
If the rich are taxed, they remain rich.
If the poor are targeted, they end up in poverty.
I ask u, Which is fair?

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Keir certainly forgets every promise he has made.
This Labour Party is a disgrace.
Who else is there now?
We are heading into a very dangerous time.
I would support the Greens, but they seem to have little knowledge of international relations and Real Politik.
It’s a shame.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Mmm Defiant.
Is Putin confusing Trumps stupidity with how much hatred he can muster?
It seems he is making one bad decision after another.
Possibly Putin is not the smart operator he was once believed to be.
When a king fails to satisfy his Lords, there often appears, a usurper.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

IDs are a white elephant.
They were the last time Labour tried this.
Why this Labour fixation with IDs?
One can only conclude, it’s about control.
If we need ID, there are means already in place.
One needs to ask, why do Governments need to track citizens even more so?
The answers are never good.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

There will be a lot more wiped away of we have a ConForm Government.
Try the NHS for one.

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

So if we have all these systems why do we need Digital IDs?
Isn’t it, one step closer to
‘Papers Please’
Don’t u think?

Rich @geekygenius.bsky.social · 4d

Are u still exposing me Hasbara?
I feel very exposed already Hasbara.
