We didn't survive and thrive as a species because we had warriors or hunters - pretty much every omnivore can manage that.
We did so because we developed Grandmothers, and domesticated Dogs.
Community is what defines us as a species, and every "self-reliant" libertarian shitweasel be damned.

"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

Chatted to my great uncle yesterday – a northern, working-class guy, not that political. I told him my job involved exposing Farage.
His first question was: “who funds him?”
Investigations into Farage’s donors can have a major impact on Reform’s support – as this research has already shown 👇

A 'Malignant Narcissist' is a severe personality type combining traits of NPD with antisocial features, marked by grandiosity, lack of empathy, manipulation, and aggression, often finding pleasure in others' suffering, exhibiting paranoia, and actively exploiting and harming people without remorse.

In their quest to destabilize the Middle East, Israel is now destabilizing Africa.
Israel wants to use Somaliland as a forward base to attack the Houthis in Yemen.
Israel’s recognition of Somaliland is purely from a place of Israel’s desire to form a greater Israel.

I am still genuinely blown away by this from Badenoch. The level of racism, ignorance, outright lying, going on here is off the charts. It is astounding that we have sunk to such lows that this is treated as a "normal" message from the leader of the opposition.

There are now seven countries powered entirely by renewable energy.
Albania, Bhutan, Nepal, Paraguay, Iceland, Ethiopia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo—generate over 99.7% of their electricity from hydro, geothermal, solar and wind.
Global energy transition is happening and unstoppable.

To anyone interested, the reason why the right are so against wind turbines is they are so good, it’s potentially free electricity for the world indefinitely.
That’s why they’re so against it.
