This will really help them win the nonce and nonce-adjacent vote

They're bad at messaging this because stuff blowing up gets them so hard they can't fathom how anyone could have any questions left after seeing footage of it.

Like a broke dad who leases a $300k Ferrari and doesn't understand why the kids keep asking how he'll pay for it despite hearing it rev.

Sister who?

Even after he helped so many people with their insurance?

the most dead-eyed soulless capitalists can read fossil fuels’ writing on the wall and are investing in clean energy. the problem is there are more people exist who romanticize fossil fuels because coal miners and roughnecks are men

"But you'd have to be a subliterate, brainless, incurious, uninformed moron with the mind of a small child to think that's how the world works." Yes, have you not been paying attention to LITERALLY EVERYTHING THE PRESIDENT DOES AND SAYS, IN PUBLIC, ALL THE TIME, FOR A DECADE

"It's not fair to hold the oppressed to a higher standard"

It is, because we are better people

Badenoch? Never. If reality doesn't correspond to her ideas, reality must be wrong.

This was particularly profound imo in the Kursk Submarine Disaster scene, and how it was set immediately after depicting him doing press releasey chummy chummy things with the occupying army in Chechnya: he only cares for his own soldiers when he can get something out of them.

People who don't know much about him perceive Putin as an unreadable darkness whose plans are measured in centuries. Law depicts that mask and then rips it well off to show the real man: a petty arsehole driven mostly by a tendency to perceive slights in absolutely everything.

If you ignore absolutely everything Trump says and does and rely only on what the media say about him, he can seem quite reasonable sometimes.

It's reciprocal with Ireland, but not with the Commonwealth.

There’s a big and underappreciated rift between what liberation means to people shaped by Eastern European history, where the US did not intervene but was often yearned for, and elsewhere, where it did intervene, often with disastrous consequences.

Do not let pro-Putin voices exploit current events to launder their own agenda.

You can be against American intervention without dismissing years of documented war crimes committed by the Russian state. (1)

Does this also mean Irish citizens wouldn't be able to vote? Including in Northern Irish constituencies? Not that anyone expects Nigel "up the RA" Farage to understand why that might be problematic.

the honest opinion of basically everyone in the broader US aligned alliance system on this is "I mean of course I wish he hadn't done it, these people are obviously fucking insane so figure it out dems, but come on, you want me to shed tears over the *Iranian* regime??? bffr"

Literally every country involved in this stupid war has a government I’d love to see removed from power, and for none of them is the right way to do it military action by the other two.

The right are furious that a white, English tradesperson got elected.

Hannah Spencer walking into Westminster, sucking her teeth, tutting, and muttering "tell you what, you've had some cowboys in here."

Jeremy Corbyn is one of my favourite fictional characters. Thank goodness he isn't real.

Big Stepbrother is watching you.

Death to the Russian Federation.

I think there’s sort of a Danegeld theory of centrism in certain elite circles and on behalf of the trans community, I request we uncancel Kipling until such time people have read the rest of the poem.

The massive decline in the use of physical currency has probably made the pound much less symbolically important to younger generations. It's just numbers on a screen now, and when one of those numbers is the commission for paying in a different currency, the benefits of the euro become clearer.

Plenty of people have standards low enough for actual pigs, but still too high for Andrew M-W.

Piers Morgan is surprisingly good at calling out bellends. It really does take one to know one apparently.

"Sure, the country was a shithole, but at least my knees didn't hurt and I could still get it up"

Your Bluesky experience will be immensely improved simply by browsing Will Stancil’s replies and blocking everybody being a freak. This takes out like 90 percent of the shittiest people on the site and makes everything better.

If you're anti-pendulum, you're pro-pit by definition. Why are you pro-pit?
