Watching Spartacus and can't help thinking that if the slaves had eschewed violence and presented their case in polite manner, observing societal decorum, they might have found the Romans more receptive to their arguments

It occurs to me that Laura Kuenssberg is in full Donald and Davey Stott mode for that interview.
"Mr. Polanski, we know that you do not like planes, but would you get on one to go and see an important world leader?"
"Yes".
"Riiiight".

Genocide is a 'pet atrocity' apparently
And pricks like this think threatening a block hurts? Be gone and take your inhumanity with you. Your softer, politer fascism will keep you warm at night

'Presumption of innocence' as doctrine only applies in court and only relates to which side has a burden of proof. The defence has no onus probandi because the presumption obtains
It's okay to use words incorrectly but stop pretending it's be wise you're smart rather than ignorant

The presumption of innocence applies to the accuser as much as to the accused. We shouldn’t assume that they’re lying just as we shouldn’t assume guilt of the accused. We must take the time to look at the evidence first before we judge.

Dude. Just stop. Address this post where you say because a prior relationship was consensual, she cannot have been a victim. No goalpost shift , we're not talking about onus probandi in court bsky.app/profile/d95w...

No, it isn't, unless a) you think the victim is lying about it not being consensual or b) you think prior consent obtains and therefore you think e.g. a husband cannot rape his wife. Either way, you don't get it, and you need to, rather than defending your bullshit, dude

So you understand the spiritual unity of humankind and gender equality perfectly but not that consent is necessarily ongoing—as in it persists, is not a single fixed decision—and can be withdrawn at any time. You've got some work to do

I am introducing the Cut It Out And This Time I Really Mean It bill. It provides an additional $57 billion to the murder goons but they will agree to wear business casual Monday through Thursday and if they do any murders they have to put a dollar in this jar.

I can confirm that Sex Matters has been refused permission to bring its anti-democratic, exclusionary, and bigoted challenge to the inclusive space at Hampstead Ponds. More to follow.

the government paid £4 million for a website that simply links out to AI training courses from other companies rather than using that money to make something actually bespoke

“leading her to take risks with her personal safety“ what risks for her personal safety??? Being trans??? Being trans and going outside in the park to meet peers from school????
okay I'm sorry but I fundamentally do not see how this is anything other than victim-blaming Brianna??
Brianna met her killers, one of whom was a friend, in broad daylight. How is that some kind of online-influenced risk-taking?? They could have been meeting up to go to the cinema
