When in fact it wasn't fine, it's just a bigots fever dream

Sovereignty for the Great British little bitches

9% say it has benefited the NHS

Are 9% of the UK shareholders of plantir or something? Cunts!

Is it the fault of the people being manipulated, rather than of those doing the manipulating? Fuck no.

Fair point, but there does seem to be plenty who do seem like they should have the capacity to understand, but choose not to.

And as you alluded to, lets not pretend Labour gives a shit about disabled people either (nor that this problem is somehow unique to the UK), so it's not like we have anyone to vote for who will not fuck us over.

True, although if enough people understood they were being fucked, things could change. Like if the Murdoch rags told them (sorry, I'm miserable facetious cunt)

Yeah this is just the first step in removing state support for disabled people. Everything these evil cunts have done from the beginning has been so fucking obvious.

The big society, where private individuals would contribute to things like food banks, while they gut state support. Reducing support for GP practices while incentivising fully private practices to be set up, handing contracts to big American healthcare/insurance companies.

How is this not obvious to people in the UK, or do they know and want the UK to turn into a hellhole?

E: seems the council is about half and half for conservative and labour members, but labour are now just Tories so probably not worth checking...

Amount of money in the status quo with oil + petrodollar shenanigans

Trump spokesperson firing back at Kinzinger's claim with, “Adam Kinzinger farted on live TV

Unfortunately, people being cunts, this is very open to corruption by pretty power hungry authoritarians. But probably the only viable solution.

The good old days, where the peasants were riddled with scurvy and rickets.

Or a more complete solution to you having a problem with it would be you being in the tiny percentage.

Now this is the way the trick works

paid for by the wealthy

It wouldn't be paid for by the wealthy. The wealthy only take, i.e. take all of the value created by the working. Have you seen how much goes in subsidies to private businesses to enhance their private business. That weath could pay for it, it's where the wealthy get all their money.

And great point about education being public and freely available. It's beneficial on so many levels.

It's not really suddenly. They've been trying to help Russia from the beginning. The attack by Hamas on Israel was very fortunate for Russia, since the republicans have been able to conflate the two so now the funding is stuck in limbo, funding Israel doesn't need for their genocide as it happens. Completely coincidentally Iran, who likely helped get arms to Hama's is a great friend of Russia. Israel being strangely myopic about that attack when they normally have eyes on everything is also very fortunate for Russia. It seems too elaborate for Russia to have orchestrated this in any way, but Putin has proven to be a conniving cunt in the past.

I think you might be on to something. It could also possibly allow for the ability to pass regulations on predatory practices by big tech.

Awww who am I kidding, that's a fantasy land, maybe if the UK allows companies to pump more sewage into the waterways America will want to trade then.

Infinite growth capitalism goes brrr

Totally, if you want to profit gauge from the population, that's you're thing. These executives worked hard getting into the privileged position they're in, they should be allowed to take advantage of it. People are just whiny right?

Yep

Also this seems to be bringing religious fundamentalists of different religions together, I see both Christian and Jewish theologians on their boards.

Religion, the age old excuse to be a violent hateful bigot

Maybe Russia could help the climate by not blowing up lots of stuff in Ukraine

That said, why freeze those assets and not just take them, giving them to developing countries as part of a climate change package would be fine as long as it incurs no future legal obligation to Russia. Although, loans sharks just break your legs if you don't pay, they don't generally follow legal definitions.

This is the thing, I think desktop Linux has everything I need and the edges cases I can script. I find most tools much more useful to use on the cli. Web stuff is usually provided via a browser and some sort of application running within the browser.

The only thing Id prefer a UI for is image/video editing, and while the tools for Linux for these usually aren't as pretty, they are usually more functional.

If I can't change some software when I need too, this annoys me, which is why I use Linux. Slick apps with pretty UI and really well defined UX while nice, are normally very restrictive by design...

Most people who don't care about the level of functionality and customisation I'm thinking of, normally don't venture beyond the web anyway, so having mint and an up to date browser is likely a nicer experience for them than other OSes.

Or they're using a phone, which to be fair does currently need work with Linux...
