@larafreidenfeld@Tyler_A_Harper A lot of leftists believe that ethnic hierarchies should be reinstated but with whites at the bottom. Should they be banned too?
Here’s the brass tacks question progressive academics seem to want to avoid answering: does anyone seriously believe that a geographer critical of immigration would be likely to be hired by an elite American university? Or would those views put them at a profound disadvantage? 1/
Things that will still be scarce no matter how smart the computers get:
1. Land
2. Attention
3. Status
4. Love
5. Power
Basically all the same things people in first world countries work for right now.
@akicif@_Harriet90 Far be from me to minimise that generation's bravery, but it's a helluva lot easier to take on a German-speaking enemy who threatens you with invasion than to identify dangerously subversive elements among your own kith and kin.
Vance is not really a Republican or a conservative. He aspires to be our first horseshoe president, uniting all the worst elements in the American electorate — a bumbling, bumptious, know-nothing lumpen proletariat with the Angry Appalachian with the Yale chin at the very top.
A reminder, Andy, of the Thatcher era:
• Income tax: 83% → 40%
• Basic rate: 33% → 25%
• Inflation: 21.9% peak (1980) → 2.4% (1986)
• Days lost to strikes: 29.5 million (1979) → 1.9 million (1990)
• Real pay for the average earner: up by a third
@spectator What a tiresome amount of commentary on a non-event.
Maggie, who was a massive philosemite, embargoed Israel for most of her tenure as PM.
States do what is in their interest to do. Right now, the UK is an antagonist toward Israel and the Argies an ally.
@yassineltruhan@alaaklf_@LucBernard She me the condemnation of Egypt's Gaza wall from ANY of Egypt's players or coach. If they're so pro-Palestine then why don't they take a public stand?
Egypt is a dictatorship because of the backward, supremacist mindset of its people (and Arabs like you) who are Jew obsessed.
@yassineltruhan@alaaklf_@LucBernard Ah yes, "Palestinian suffering" which explains why Egyptians built a massive wall on their Gaza border and are so eager to call Messi and the ref "Jews" when they lose to the Argies 😄
