I again urge you to ask which is more likely: that millions of members of the public have gone insane, or that a comparatively tiny number of people at the heart of media and politics - who all know each other and often work together - have driven *themselves and each other* crazy.

Absolutely amazing that these clowns are *still going* with this, in the week that UEFA hit the club with a huge fine for their fans singing about committing sex crimes, murder and genocide.

The political and media class are basically desperate for any evidence that it's the phones that have caused all of the problems, from why people hate the mainstream parties to mental health issues. All while they've clearly been radicalised in part by social media.
This is basically going to be "Get off your phone and into work" isn't it?

Did nobody read those books? Yes, he’s a roaring wingnut, his take on everything from patriotism to grooming gangs is full metal Telegraph crackpot and he has been very open about this, as have a lot of MPs who agree with him. They’re just reactionary swine! It’s not much more complex than that.

part of the reason for the rise of reform is labour trying to appeal to their supporters by aping their arguments and policies. all labour votes reward this strategy, your labour vote says "yes, i love racism, more racism please"
don't give labour a single vote under any circumstances

Im so exhausted yall, I dont know how to tell you how desperate our friends in Gaza are, because prices haven't gone down, aid is not flowing freely, there is no infrastructure and no work, but no one is donating. The horrors continue, the stress accumulates and they are all confused and frustrated

I am of the firm opinion that “gender-critical” transphobia is fascism. And not just “fascism adjacent” or “fascist enabling” but fascism front & centre.
Owning slaves, invading other peoples’ countries and starving people to death are not “contentious”, they are fascism.

One of the really important things to understand about the UK is that we hate our own kids. We resent them for still being young when we are old, and we want to punish them for it.

Sure, but the problem here isn’t a failure of understanding: it’s that the people in charge are very cranky right wing reactionaries who despise those people, and would rather crash the bus again and again than ever seriously court their approval.

It's not confused and it's not hapless. They got what they wanted and got the center-right to establish it as the new common m normal. Then, consistent with the behaviour of all right wing racists for the last century, they refused to take yes for an answer and upped their demands.
More confusion from the hapless Philp/Lam team
“It is now our formal announced policy to restrict benefits to anyone who is not a British citizen. That is policy.".
Obviously, that would mean tearing up the Conservatives' own Brexit deal with the EU.

Tories deny they have thrown out plans to toughen up indefinite leave to remain
Plans to retrospectively remove the settled status are no longer Tory policy, a spokesman suggested on Wednesday.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

This isn't them being slow on the uptake. The point is they are doing the politics they've waited their whole lives to do & think is palpitatingly awesome: crushing the left, rolling back civil liberties, punishing the poor, shagging the flag, gurning for war. Why would they stop?
