I like discussing society and politics with people who can debate without getting angry and shouting.
So many opportunities to troll. Get on a circular bus, metro or road and keep going.
Or drive to the worst part of town, pull up to the shadiest person and point to the following vehicle (in reality just asking directions) and watch the panic as they suspect they have lured into a trap.
Be creative.

Freedom of speech is not just being allowed to say something, it is also the right to choose whose speech we listen to, or not, as in this case.

China has a national ice hockey team.

China has a national ice hockey team.
If China hates ice hockey so much that banning it would be their first priority, why do they have their own national ice hockey team?
Somehow I doubt that China has any plan to Venezuela Canada.

I know it's a bit dated now, but Trump is the very opposite of Kipling's "If".

He will go from the healthiest President ever to a poor old man with dementia unable to be tried, faster than they can type the indictment.

Preventing evidence from being collected means they are so certain of the result, they are not prepared to roll the dice.

As a non-American, I believe all your problems stem from a lack of tea. Half-time in any sport is time to boil the kettle and brew up. No need for a show while I'm in the kitchen.
And a really weird thing on our TV remotes is the mute button, we don't have to listen to something we don't want to.

A law change that candidates have to have lived in a constituency for at least a year leading up to an election would change politics. Also if your party can't find a decent candidate in 100k people, without parachuting somebody in, then maybe it shouldn't be represented in parliament.

Rule 1. Of Life
Don't mess with the taxman - ever.
Find a different way to rebell. It's an easy way for any oppressive system to lock you up and pretend it's not oppression.

It doesn't matter who would replace Starmer. This infighting will tear Labour apart. It didn't start with the Mandelson debacle and it won't end there.
Meanwhile Farage glides on, somehow scandal-proof.
It's a train crash in slow motion.

They feel bad now. Eventually they will be unmasked. They might not be prosecuted, but everyone will know.
Every moment from then on they will dread hearing "I know you!"
