@Jacquel92286926 @GoldingBF she's actually a doctor that works and lives in in small heath, next to this place. She turned up but the other more Asian collogues were scared to be around the area
@SigGravitas Makes me happy that extremism is found to directly be based on lower out-the-box thinking and 'the moral arc'.
Or they would be finding ways to ask: "How do I damage society without blowing up only myself in a taxi" etc
@IllbeFrank1@michaelshermer i think general relativity and special relativity came after thst though.
as in, redshift is the perspective still. for example, we knew thaf we only have an 'observable' universe because outside of it the objects are moving faster than light away from us across expanding space-
@IllbeFrank1@michaelshermer if you are saying its link contraction from the approaching speed of light, i think you are wrong. it looks to me like not red shift, an idea you may have leaent to understand how we know the universe is expanding.
@yorkshireboy10@geoffwilton2@BBCPolitics in thus case, May is likely angry at how the push for the australian system ignore all the intricacies of our point system.
australia trying to reduce its immigration is also aiming to copy our *past* employer lead points based system.
It might be populist acclaim vs experience
@Jamie_Sense@BBCPolitics Well, she had the same deal that boris got offered excluding the * If you prove it does not leave NI you get a rebate*
gov has shown incompetence in this, as the only difference in an australian point based system is more non eu immigration.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton no i specifically said it was because of a trotsky bias to have the underdogs always win.
that israel is the lesser of 2 evils and that you were representing my point as a strawman when you said hatred of jews does mot equate to hatred of israel.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton from our last consersation this suggests you are trying to justify bias and irrational hatred towards Israel. Do you view it that way?
i got this by how our conversation was not about israel doing no wrong but israel having irrational bias against it.
@mrsnrupert @michaelshermer anless you believe everyone has always gotten what they deserve and deserve what they get it is inevtiable that society does not act fairly without interventiom.
@michaelshermer the further from the center the more absolute philosophies and a sense of entitlment over the greater good.
entited to an equality of outcome is similar in respects to an entitlment of individual/nationalistic rights.
both show a distict lack of inductive reasoning.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton I never suggested they were.
Lets leave out the argument over antisematisms definition here.
Surely irrational bias against a country is bad?
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton so to me it makes more sense if the socialist perspective was the Palestinians even being the worse of 2 evils should be forgiven and given wjat they want just because they are the underdogs.
but anti sematism being the associated prejudices is logical to me.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton from my understanding trotsky style socialists tend to take the stance thst the underdog can be forgiven by anything.
but marx and many marxists expressed the same form of anti sematism fascists had.
they may value lives more equally but have spme pf the strpngest prejudices.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton but the nuonce comes from not that they are directly anti semitic, just like shouting saying white lives matter is not alone.
but labour anti sematism comes mostly from tribalism against israel.
further, historically anti sematism is anti semites and not the jewish. so israel.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton there are nuonces in these concepts. israel is strongly tied to judaism.
the labour party objected to it being anti Semitic to say a jewish person is more loyal to israel than their native country.
if objecting to this in the ihra, then you theoretically conflate the two more.
@buejoll@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton anti zionism is commonly confised as anti nationalism. But if you dont use it as having ths right to exist it causes more problems.
ihra definitions associate anti israel to anti semitic because of the social association.
@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton https://t.co/BRsYs8IWMB
also many police from many countries had israeli training. https://t.co/BRsYs8IWMB
yet we do not use the technique due to the same reason israel is not responsible for the george floyd death.
@DonahueRogers @MrDominicBuxton it is a technique used by many nations.
few states in usa still allow use of this technique, for israel to be responsible there would need to be evidence of them preassuring the USA police to use the technique.
