More recently there’s a mayor of some town (in Texas, iirc Kansas) that’s facing deportation and multiple felony charges for voting in elections as a non-citizen.

I’ll link to the story posted on lemmy if I can find it!

Found it! https://lemmy.ml/post/43029958

If Andrew Cuomo had won, he definitely wouldn’t have waited around to get stuck in… to abusing more women!

If you’re having trouble stringing a sentence together, feel free to draw a picture with crayons.

And if you paid any attention to those reports, you would know that the vast majority are where those people have been critical of the UK or other govts actions, especially surrounding Palestine and none have gone further with the exception of Asa Winstanley. The only reason the police have visited those people is because zionist like complaining about nothing until they get their own way.

The one that the commentor here was responding to was a clear case of inciting violence. The same with people like the constantly crashing out Graham Lineham, who was arrested by police because he was inciting violence against a protected class.

So while the UK govt is infringing on peoples free speech, its not the ones who are getting all the publicity. Theyre just a bunch of whining fuckwits who want to be able to threaten people without consequence.

Please do try to keep abreast of the situation rather than stomping in with big boots and looking like a fucking idiot.

I am not sure what point you are trying to make here.

You should ask that of yourself. Youre the one who brought up paedos. Maybe you get all too muddled in your head and cant make a salient point?

“An idiotic post”

She was inciting people to burn down hotels housing vulnerable people. Some of those padeos you bleat about were at the protests while 60% of those arrested at a protest in Bristol have form as domestic abusers

Yes, all about protecting women and kids.

She admitted it because she was caught bang to rights

The UK is imprisoning thousands for their tweets.

What an absolute loads of bollocks.

There has recently been 1 woman jailed for her tweets where she admitted to inciting violence, not because of free speech issues.

These libertarian wankers love citing that sole case (and make out that it’s “thousands, I tell ya!”) but will overlook that several Just Stop Oil protesters were jailed for 4 years just for holding a zoom call and anti-genocide protesters are being arrested and charged with terrorism offences just for writing on a bit of cardboard.

It’s usually preceded by some storming of beaches, marching across the region before holding trials and hanging people.

You youngsters always want to skip to the end when there’s plenty of killing fascists along the way!

This is typical of Starmer: an empty vacuous authoritarian solution to an already solved problem.

It will do nothing to stop undocumented workers from being exploited by unscrupulous employers who will still pay them a pittance in cash but will add to the already massive surveillance state, and with the inevitable mission creep, it will end up being required for innocuous day to day tasks such as getting prescriptions, seeing medical services, possible even things such as purchasing travel or alcohol.

Then you can imagine what happens if someone ID is deactivated, accidentally or on purpose.

With future govts, what if one of them wants to prosecute it’s political opponents?

It’s just the most stupid idea from a guy that is a completely lame duck prime minister

"If a person has ugly thoughts, it begins to show on the face. And when that person has ugly thoughts every day, every week, every year, the face gets uglier and uglier until you can hardly bear to look at it.

A person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams and you will always look lovely.

Roald Dahl, The Twits

I wouldn’t murder anyone but I’m certainty not going to be upset when a shit gibbon gets his neck blown out.

You sound like the kind of person that if someone was getting attacked in the street, you would grab their arms to stop them defending themselves while saying to them that they need to be the better person.

I would happily kick you in the face if that were ever the case

And some people can’t pull their head out of their own ass long enough to see that their problems aren’t the same as everyone else’s problems.

You’re just projecting here.

I merely pointed out that everything is politics and yet you respond with yet more bleating.

and their pet issues

And you respond further by shoving your head further up your own arse.

Your response being a great case study in how you can do exactly that while also implying that no one else even has problems to begin with.

Are you trying to make yourself out as the victim here?

What a fucking crybaby!

When can we stop inserting politics into every little thing?

When I see comments like this, it makes 2 things plainly obvious:

1. The commentor is naive and doesn’t understand that fundamentally ‘politics’ is the power dynamic in every relationship, be that between people, groups or with structures or things such as food.

It is in everything and connects everything. It defines your relationship and how you interact with the world and it’s relationship to, and interaction with you.

2. The commentor has enough privilege that they don’t have to worry about politics/power structures on a daily basis.

Some people can’t see the wood for the trees

Check his videos about poisoning AI scraping with respects to music (he’s a musician professionally)

I ask why they lock the door on the toilet.

They usually splutter about social norms etc and I point out that it’s a social norm they mind their own fucking business about my affairs

Are they “drop outs” or were they ‘asked’ to leave the establishment?

Definitely, it’s them playing stupid so centrist liberals will mock them because they can’t help themselves and they use that to say to the genpop “look, I’m just like you and these sneering elites are laughing at me, and by extension you”

I think the attraction is more that the current system isn’t working for a lot of people and hasn’t been for a long time.

Exactly. They play the outsider who has the balls but not embroiled in the quagmire, to come and “drain the swamp”

The perverse hilarity of trump saying this is that he is the 1%, he is the trust fund kid that had everything handed to him on a platter. He literally is the swamp (a corrupt child rapist)

Farage in the UK went to one of the top schools (Dulwich college) where he was disciplined for singing Hitler youth songs. He got a job in the city through his dad as a commodities broker before going into (disrupting) politics and people seem to believe his shit when he acts like he’s one of the common folk!

People need their heads banging together falling for that shit!

Not quite.

Farage keeps running around saying “Pick me! Pick me!” and the press keep asking “Is farage a viable candidate?” while not offering the same credence to anyone else.

The British public are “We’re fucking sick of this bollocks from the establishment” and a lot of them are falling for the privately educated ex city trader Farages nonsense that he’s a “man of the people” because all the centrist parties are saying “aren’t immigrants awful?” in an attempt to distract from their own incompetence and quite frankly, the left is 10 years behind in offering a coherent alternative to all the bullshit.
