That's a really simplistic take. He's an intelligent man but he's fallen into an echo chamber of nonsense, it's easy to say that only dumb as shit people are radicalised but just look around, that's bullshit.

I don’t understand how so many people would VOTE for someone who reliable falls for and promotes so very many obvious conspiracies.

They don't think it's conspiracies though, my brother has recently fallen down this hole and he's fully convinced that all the papers are complete lies, TV news is just fiction, and he knows what's really going on. In this world millions of kids are being sold to hollywood sex rings and Biden is covering it up, and they're terrified that their kids will be next. They believe everything he says.

While this is an interesting article, I feel like in the current state of twitter Alt right accounts are promoted whatever you like. When I was on it I followed feminist type pages, local news, some left wing comedians, I was still frequently offered Andrew Tate and the like.

Awful woman

My local nextdoor has an issue with non white people in vans. Like normal builders eating their lunch and Sharon down the road is posting "Anyone know why this man is here? Stayed there for 45 minutes, very suspicious, might be stealing dogs".

Of fucking course it is!!

So does anything happen from this or are we just pointing out the obvious?

I absolutely agree. I did however listen to the audio of him gloating over the attack on Nancy Pelosi and her husband and it made me sick. I could never celebrate violence but I have a little less anger for those who are striking out at Trump.

Why are you doing 7 hours of homework as an adult?

You can add lots of toys and treats to keep them amused. Remember at a rescue place each cat has much less space than a room, sometimes a glorified box. It would be really sad if you have to send them back, but I will say I've adopted a lot of adult cats and it's never happened to me. There's a chance, but I think it's fairly low.

Have you considered fostering for a rescue? That way you can save a cat and you can get a better idea how your cat will react.

Most cats do like company if introduced very slowly. Like over a couple of months. If it was me I'd probably try it.

Rockets are cool, they go to the moon, there's not really a fun use of the word 'bomb'

Not really talking about brutality, although that varies from place to place, but more the occupying garrison for the ruling class comments. Police structure vary from country to country.

Also Scotland yard is a building, it doesn't do anything.

These days, we know the police are not here to protect the public, rather to serve as an occupying garrison for the ownership class, and while this was always the case, the DEA and war on drugs and the 1033 program have made this role even more clear.

American police. Police in different countries are structured in very different ways.

I don't think that would be allowed in the UK, you can't tell kids to eat bombs.

You call it a bomb pop? We call them rocket lollys, I assumed that the rocket part would be universal.

While I see the good bits of Proportional Representation, it does give extremism a foot in the door. Remember this is the voting pattern in a FPTP system, one of the tabloids even encouraged reform voters to switch to the Tories because of tactical voting. Changing the voting system gives these far right anti human rights parties a much better chance.

This article seems to be trying to make the use of drones seem ominous but that's really simplistic. A drone is a tool. They talk about flying drones over large gatherings but before drones they'd just have a dude with a camera go up a tall building.

When there's large gatherings it can be helpful to spot crowd surges or crushes to be able to see things.

Of course these things are open to abuse, but how many cases of abuse have we seen with basic police on foot?

It's not the technology we should be worrying about but the officers who are abusive.

Why would you bail a woman that openly tried to murder a baby??? That's insane.

While american cities are a nightmare to walk, I feel like this is a bad example, like his complaints are that the pavement is next to a road and he needs to walk a bit further to get into the park. This isn't really unusual anywhere.

There's giant areas of the US where there's no pavements at all and there's a lot of things you can't walk to, like supermarkets or pharmacies, because your nearest one might be an hour or two walk away.

Not sure if it's very, maybe slightly? They're not cuddle kitties, but neither are they murder kitties.
