It’s easy to agree with them, none of their proposals have to be tempered by the reality of being possibly implemented. They can promise the world and they know it’s fine because they’ll never have to deliver same with Reform, but just left-wing rather than right.

I would like to see their policies have some kind of relationship with practical reality. That includes the realization that sometimes you need to build nuclear power stations, sometimes trees need to be cut down for infrastructure projects, and occasionally you have to do things people don’t like.

For example we need more housing, that’s going to cut into the environment and will necessitate building on old green belt land. They can’t just be against it, that’s not a practical response so I’d like to see a nuanced understanding of the topic rather than a blanket “no more building”

It was actually quite funny, the other day a van came around giving out vote labour signs, and it was like the adult version of an ice cream van. I’m glad there’s so much Labour support in my constituency but I’ve never seen it before. Normally there’s one or two vote labour signs quite a lot of vote conservative signs but a lot of people don’t put anything up.

This year it’s virtually all vote labour, or nothing, and very little nothing.

The greens really shot themselves in the foot around here because they opposed the building of a wind farm. What Green MP opposes Green energy?

It was by design. The problem is that when you get former BNP members, they say and do racist things. But who could have possibly foreseen that outcome?

I wish the greens would come up with some kind of coherent policy. On literally anything at all.

Their manifesto is basically just “we don’t like things that destroy the environment” which isn’t a bad, but it’s also not exactly compatible with the modern world.

They don’t like HS2 for example because it might harm some trees. I would love it if we can somehow figure out a way to build magic hover trains that fly over all of the foliage, but since that haven’t been invented I think cutting a few trees down is an acceptable compromise for progress.

As with most games I’ll wait until about 3 months after it releases before I consider whether I’m going to buy it. It’s not like it’s going to run of copy’s out is it?

They seem to think the Earth is housed in some kind of giant sphere. Presumably air fills this magic sphere so they’d be okay.

I don’t know, I don’t subscribe to their delusions.

I think that’s only dementia plus plus, and she never had that.

Because filming and laughing at people who are mentally distressed isn’t really satisfying is it. They think the Earth is flat they’re not normal in the head why are considering this to be entertainment.

Yeah but he never actually went after the original murder if you notice. He spent his entire time going after lunatics who thought that they were going to take over the city because they had planted a bomb on a bridge or something.

At least Spider-Man actually got vengeance.

This is a weird hill to die on I’ve got to say. I’ve seen MythBusters it’s on TV, you can watch reruns on a on Youtube, you are arguing about something fundamentally disprovable.n

And I repeat, the Earth is not flat. The only people who think the Earth is flat are people who have stopped taking their medication. Laughing at these people is counterproductive at best an outright abusive at worst.

Oh no, they’ll believe when we kick them out the airlock. Don’t worry they’ll be in a spacesuit, we’ll see how fervently they hold onto convictions when we offer them the opportunity to take the helmet off. I doubt there would be many takers

Mythbusters took commonly held ideas and showed whether they were correct or not. Sometimes they actually said that what they were showing was true, often they showed how things are sort of true to a given value of true but there’s a lot of subtlety and nuance in the answer.

But the Earth isn’t flat. We know it isn’t, there is no debating the topic unless you’ve got a neurological deficiency. All this show he’s going to do is be, haha look at the morons, which won’t do anything because we already do that.

What a stupid show idea. Everyone knows that the best reality show is to take an activity usually undertaken by your grandmother and turn it into a global franchise.

Competitive knitting, competitive watercolors, competitive cooking, competitive dressmaking you name it. If your grandmother does it it can be turned into a television program.

Why are they messing around with this crap?

Batman was a CEO of a company.

Were the workers in the drone factory combatants, because by your definition technically they were.

The problem with the Doomsday clock idea is it’s very unspecific. The closer to midnight the closer we are to the end of the world but what does that mean? Who decides if we are 30 seconds or 35 seconds before midnight, what’s one second worth of Doom represent? For that matter what does 1 second after midnight look like (as far from Doom as possible), What’s that is that, a utopia, and how is that different to 3:00 a.m. or 2:00 p.m.

It’s 4chan, so no

Anon’s got problems, and somehow that’s everyone else’s fault. Classic 4chan

Anyway meanwhile in normal human land, the presence of pornography does not decrease the dating pool.

I think it’s simpler. Those who are in power are gar too full whitted to really do not care and do not really consider this to be an issue. It’s not so much that they agree or disagree with her, it’s more that they just don’t care

I’m not sure that’s actually better really but isn’t any important distinction.

He was also barely even in Harry Potter, if we are going by screen time pretty sure Harry potter is the least relevant part of his career.
