And as an aside - this sums up perfectly for me an issue with so many people:- Twtdrs, social media, lining up a couple of months ago to be outraged and disgusted over a couple of bell ends taking an unwanted selfie with Chris Whitty...yet barely a wimper from the same posters / mob over an unfolding humanitarian crisis evolving right in front of us all.
I despair how so many people get themselves invested in irrelevant nonsense as opposed to things that actually matter... [Post edited 1 Sep 2021 6:54]

"Sure, they’re opinions but based on evidence. And I’ll change according to the evidence."
jeez, that's such a dull and blunt line. you clearly think that evidence exists separately from interpretation and that it comes with certainty of meaning. any shyster can cloak themselves in 'evidence' selected to fit their purpose. |
You’re a very strange man. I’m talking reality as a starting point and objectivity as a goal, you go off on some semiotics and subjective perception guff.
Which very much reminds me, it’s you and your lot in charge of Labour now, isn’t it? Probably helps to avoid looking at the reality of that and instead interpreting it as a rip-roaring success.
As someone aptly noted about Starmer, the promise was an electable Corbyn but we got an unelectable Blair ... bunch of 🤡 🤡 🤡 🤡
Keep on partying like it’s 1997! 🤣 |  |

I haven't read the thread. Believe it or not I am a very busy man.
I saw one post and replied to it. |
Well, there’s your problem. You’re constructing an arbitrary difference out of a single, narrow interpretation.
If you feel that difference bears up alongside further examples of say when Thatcher sided with the Mujahideen in the early 80s, or was against the ANC, or us supporting Saudi Arabia and any number of pretty oppressive regimes over recent decades, then I’m all ears. | |

Thanks for highlighting my problem Koonty.
I'll take that on board and pull my socks up. |  |

No worries.
I look forward to you getting out of your recent Hot Takes rut and scoring again. | |
