  • There used to be a video online of a bloke doing a talk about the Daily Mail and the first minute and a half of the talk was just the bloke showing his collection of pictures of Suri Cruise who was about six at the time.

  • Between The Sun, Mail, Express, Telegraph and Times it's difficult to pick a worst. Sometimes I think it's The Times because it's still masquerading as a paper of record and so normalising 'centrist' positions that would have been well over to the right of the Overton window when I was a teenager.

    The Mail... so, so easy to hate with its borderline paedophilia while all the while chuntering on about the subject, its cake and eat it objectification of 'celebrity' women while revelling in their eventual downfall, their constant pushing of the crab bucket quest for total 'normality', their screaming about things that will give you cancer while remaining staunch advocates of the birch for climate protestors who, objectively are trying to remove a lot of those carcinogenic agents... hypocrisy beyond compare.

    The Telegraph, I think the telegraph are the worship of Mammon made into a broadsheet format. I see their unhinged 'owning of the libs' style diatribes and rounding up the middle to upper-middle class conservative faithful to vote for Brexit so that their owners would never have to pay a transactions tax on their investments as the other side of a pincer movement to normalise centrist position by showing how bugshit the 'libertarian' fringe's ideas can be.

    And then there's the Express, the 'I did it my way' unapologetic racist neighbour of all the other papers.

  • My position: no government should be given the power to kill its citizens under any other circumstances than to protect other people from imminent violence, i.e. the same circumstances that would qualify as self-defence by a private individual.

    For the sake of argument: if you really wanted a painless and humane death what could be better than a carefully modulated dose of opioids?

    I'm guessing the answer is if they get high on the way out then it isn't justice because only fear and suffering will assuage those with a vengeance boner.

  • To be frank with you they need to rein in liberal media like the fucking Guardian also, those pricks are farming outrage to finance themselves. What we need is Leveson II and a regulatory body with bite. In fact the new regulatory body need to be about 90% teeth.

  • Sunak is unlikely to be in power for longer than it takes for the pilot to generate 'usable' statistical results.

    The Conservatives can then use this scheme to attack Labour while in opposition, 'Labour is weak on drugs!' Labour then u-turns 'They can't make up their mind!' and closes the trial down, 'Sunak let this pioneering study go on and now Labour have shut it down!'

    Alternative scenario: it works and Labour don't shut it down, The Sun running the headline '300% leap in crime near treatment room!' Conservatives: 'Labour is soft on crime, mollycoddling junkies while ordinary people struggle.'

    If you always argue from a place of bad faith then life never disappoints you.

  • The Hat Fox: If recreational drugs could be purchased with proper standards for purity, dosage etc they would be much safer for their users.

    Social conservatives (inc. parts of the PLP): And that would be a bad thing. Drug consumption is a moral failure and should be punished by poverty, humiliation and death.
