The system no longer governed by policy intent but by emergent incentives. Moral arguments/enforcement tweaks barely matter now, we’re dealing with a runaway coordination loop. Once in motion, the system produces the very conditions that accelerate itself:

Asylum a 'conveyor belt' to benefits warning as migrant claims doubles
It came as new figures revealed that despite pledges of a crackdown by ministers, the number of migrants and refugees claiming universal credit has more than doubled since 2022.

the UK government is experiencing a reciprocal narrowing: reduced capacity for nuance, increased anxiety about legitimacy, over-application of simple heuristics (“offensive → harmful → criminal”), spiraling inability to distinguish threat from insult.
This is how societies lose adaptive resilience.

Irony alert: Gabriel perfectly illustrates the elite condescension that makes many English feel their historic culture is being devalued & silenced.
This aggressive policing of majority identity with moral posing to his in-group fuels the very resentment he claims doesn't exist.

Pure evil. A society that frames itself as “humanist” while normalising death as a policy solution is playing with the same structural logic that underwrote the Aktion T4 programme: life re-priced as a cost, dignity reduced to managerial criteria, mercy weaponised by institutions.
It's important to write to peers right now, and let them know exactly how you feel about this. Please, scrutiny is important, but attempts to run down the clock are undemocratic. Write to peers today. #AssistedDyingBill

They can't help but admit their ideology is a lvl 4 simulacrum: parasitic on Christian moral grammar (dignity, equality, conscience, universal care) while pretending these arise naturally from materialism.
They replicate the 'shape' of the sacred, yet deny the source-code that made it possible.

Where does Andrew write "spiritual"?
You could assume that ateists and other non-religious persons have about the same existential feelings, worries etc. as others in the face of death and servere changes in life.

The places in the US with the most legal ownership have the least number of homicides. Otto doesn't want to delve into the demographics of US gun crime, why is that?
Does he think old asian ladies are involved in gun homicides as much as old jewish ladies?

Excellent response from Hasan Piker, who was scheduled to debate Charlie Kirk in two weeks. On his stream he said: “The reverberation of people seeking out vengeance in the aftermath of this violent, abhorrent incident is going to be genuinely worrisome.” Also talked about his own vulnerability

Rayner is absolute class. She's been a bit silly in organising her taxes, but that's not why they hate her. They hate her because she did not know her place.

So Angela Rayner took her disabled child’s NHS compensation payment, and used it to buy out her own share of her house, so that she could buy herself a flat 300 miles away near her boyfriend, while she palmed the kid off to the Dad?

There's a lot of these kinds of response from the hard of thinking. They don't care about free speech, police over reach, or human rights... they just want to hate on a perceived Outgroup member. Chimp behaviour.
