  • Greek gods casting their ballot is actually a great propaganda image for democracy

  • Interesting, I didn'tknow about that

  • Hmm true, there is the ECHR. But it is implemented into british law in such a way that there's nothing stopping laws being passed which are incompatible with it. Whereas with the US and other constitutions you have judicial review.

  • If the British side win they get a Club Card

  • That's just because the R's expressly don't care about constitutionality. If the UK had a written constitution, both parties are still at a level of integrity where they'd want to (at least appear to) be keeping it, so a judicial challenge to these terrorist acts might have actually struck them down.

  • The Suffragettes are certainly a good counter-example. I didn't mean that people haven't been protesting, just that I can't remember any recent protests (apart from strikes which are something different) where the government gave in and made concessions.

  • What world history do they teach in the US?

  • Hmm true.

    Btw: does anyone know if they've invented a way of guaranteeing (not) AI yet? It's getting harder and I can see this becoming a pressing issue, especially in journalism.

  • It's so much easier for the frog to not realize it's being boiled in the UK because there's no consolidated constitution to point to

  • The British haven't been too good at protesting in the near past

  • Is it really though? It feels off to me too but we have no proof

  • What a clever way to microwave popcorn!

  • Seinfeld does kinda look like a boat, now that I've come to think of it

  • banan boi is just JD if he were a cat.

  • That's so stupid. But also quite interesting lol

  • I just read the headers

  • I wouldn't stress about it. Code was never meant to be edited in a web browser anyway.

  • Go on all and blacklist instead of going on subscribe and whitelisting.
