@TheAnfieldWrap@Knox_Harrington just listened to the latest AFQ. Possibly my favourite of all time! Brilliant line-up for a start! But, so funny and warm. It was a like a big hug! I bloody love you lot!
I’ve been reflecting on this over the past day or so, and I’ve come to a realization.
Many of my friends on the center-right who are upset with me for making what I believe to be very obvious observations aren’t necessarily angry at me—they’re angry at the implications of what I’m saying.
The idea that neo-Nazism has entered the mainstream, potentially influencing the White House, is so alarming and existentially terrifying that it's easier to lash out at the messenger than confront the reality.
If they accept this, it means that the political home they've invested so much of their identity in, the movement they've championed for years, has become something so morally repugnant that accepting it feels like breaking their own brain.
The cognitive dissonance is overwhelming.
What's striking to me is the selective outrage. Many of these same people are quick to call everyone communists, often with little more than circumstantial evidence.
Yet, when it comes to countless instances of glaringly obvious signs of fascism in their own movement, they either look away or attack those pointing it out.
@elonmusk stop talking about UK/EU politics. You know nothing about this country or continent. We will never accept your fascistic views. Crawl back into the cave you came from!
@efloristflowers I paid for next day delivery and it didn't happen! None of your tracking links work! Apparently you passed it on to Amazon?! Still the tracking link doesn't work! A terrible service! #Avoid#BadCompany
@mrjamesob I fear that the Democrats are falling into the same space that the Pro EU brigade (of which I count myself) fell into during the referendum. They think just attacking Trump will be good enough. It isn't! It worked for Labour in the latest GE, it won't work for them!
I post this quite regularly, but with very good reason as every time I do, a few people see it for the first time. Which is very important!
Any'ow.
Bowie does Yaaaaarksire.
Na then.
I see many Tory devotees on here have agreed that one gaslighting line is "they are all as bad as each other!"
No "they" are not. Your lot proved to be far far worse. Disgusting in fact. Venal.
The crappy standards you nodded along with are NOT the norm.
The 1987-88 edition of the @BBCMOTD Goal of the Season competition was unique in that all 10 goals shortlisted were scored by Liverpool players. To date, this is the only occasion where the contenders were made up entirely of goals scored by players for one club.
Since 2010, government cuts to our public services mean the UK has lost
200 museums 🪙
750 youth centres 🏃
793 playgrounds 🛝
800 libraries 📚
1086 swimming pools 🏊♀️
1416 children's centres 🧸
8000 bus routes 🚌
And we wonder why the economy isn't working
FUND PUBLIC SERVICES
“Sky TV? Luxury! When I were a lad, five of us were all crammed into nowt but a 6-bedroom 'ouse. No workin'-class friends, and we 'ad to pay t'public school nigh on £25,000 every yeer, for t'elite private education. Aye, I 'ad it rough! And if you tell t'electorate that today, they won't believe you!”
The 'tyranny of the majority.' Let' see how that's worked out over the past seven seasons. In domestic competition, City won 12 of the 21 trophies. Let's compare.
Titles: City 6 Oppressors 1;
FA Cups: City 2, Oppressors 5;
EFL Cups: City 4, Oppressors 3.
We are witnessing the most dominant period in the history of the game in this country. And, yet, City's suit alleges they are being held back. That competition is being compromised. They are taking the piss out of us, people. Taking the piss
@greateranglia I've paid nearly £50 for a return, part of which is disrupted because of works. Can't get a seat on the way out of Liverpool St. Will have to get a rail replacement service on the way back from Colchester on Saturday. The price is criminal! Shame on you!!!!
