This place is fooking awful at the moment 11:09 - Sep 17 with 8455 viewsDubtractor

Truly unbearable.

Parking the question of who is right or wrong, it is a perfect microcosm of the way that we have all been divided into tribes by the people with hands on the levers of power in recent years. Brexit is the most obvious example here, but there are loads more, and it's very evidently a deliberate ploy to divide populations into things they disagree about rather than unite on the things they agree on. The USA over the last decade is obviously another good example.

I try my hardest not to get sucked in, but it's becoming increasingly hard to just ignore stuff that I find almost upsetting at times.

Think im going to go football only on here for a bit. Which is a shame, as I do value seeing different views to challenge my world view.

Appreciate that this is a bit of a look at me post, but wanted to be able to vent a bit.

You say all this but wasn’t it you who put a bot on here this morning who is going to win an election if held today

That is quite divisive in itself

Although very depressing how many would vote Reform. It’s pretty clear those who are racist/ racist adjacent and listening to these far right grifters are feeling more empowered by things like this weekend.

Coming on here, stepping out of their bubbles and their views not being the norm seems to a big cause of it doesn’t it?

I’ll guess a few of our ‘comedians’ just dabbed Reform for sh*ts and giggles..

I’ll be completely honest here, I don’t have the first fcuking clue about politics. I couldn’t tell you a single thing about Gaza/Israel or far right/far left. There’s a part of me that thinks I could really do with educating myself on it all, but then I come across threads on here which just turn in to sh!t shows and think what’s the point?

Not only that, but I’m a 33 year old with a wife and 2 young kids with a busy job and genuinely don’t know at what point during a day I would remotely have time to educate myself on it all, and even as I post this at 9.26pm, I’m about an hour past my bedtime!

I’ll definitely just stick to the football.

As a side note, I’ve always thought we should have a few of the fair and regular posters as secret moderators. That would help Phildini hugely imo.

People like me, guthers, dubbers, Romford Blue, Ryorry, Steve_M, Rommy, J2 or me. They’d be great it.


Thanks mate but I would definitely become a tin pot dictator and abuse the power.

Truly impaired.

No it isn't. People could ignore it or vote anonymously if they want.

Spot on again about the left and right.

The left's new hero Bob Vylan get a mention.

He usually is spot on.
Personally I don't think he is in that one.
And Bob Vylan is not the lefts new hero.
Good divisive addition though

Why the need for the second comment? I would consider myself firmly on the left from an economic perspective, but I think Vylan's comments at Glastonbury were pretty disgusting.
