@IamSoFarAhead@TheAliceSmith Yes, I do. Your reason is childish and stupid. Your ancestors didn't get a choice. You're entitled enough to think you deserve one. You do not. If you're conscripted you go.
It's almost as if--and bear with me here--but it's almost as if you cannot construct a sustainable society around the demands of a few entitled transvestites
@StreetCreature9@IamSoFarAhead@TheAliceSmith Nobody has ever suggested conscription to fight in Ukraine, Sergey. The issue would be Russian attacks on NATO and the need to go to war to defend it, with the Axis of Stupidity keeping the USA busy elsewhere.
@IamSoFarAhead@TheAliceSmith If you say now you don't want to because of the price of gherkins, or whatever, you're not a patriot. You fight for your country just as our forefathers did, whether you agreed with government policy or not.
🚨NEW: A UK bank chief executive, reacting to John Healey's decision to raise the bank's profit surcharge said:
"Taxing the engines of growth to reduce VAT on gherkins is end-of-Rome level of stupidity"

@Gurnery_ The government is increasing pay, so business will have to increase productivity, which it will do with automation and fewer employees. Expect a further increase in unemployment, you fool.
@UKLabour The fuck are you talking about you fucking idiots. Good god you're more vacuous than deep space. At least the latter has a few particles moving through it.
