....more armchair politics (Part 2)

I’m willing to be the subject to test this hypothesis. I reckon a 30-year sample window would be ideal

They’re just fucking cunts and probably always have been fucking cunts.

Yep, there’s also “became a billionaire by being a vast turd” rather than “being a billionaire made them a vast turd”.

That’s just splitting arse hair. :grinning_face:

Only, as opposed to being repressed cunts, today’s politics makes them enabled cunts.

Surprisingly primitive creatures, the billionaires.

This is the only good use for their brains.

Billionaires only get to being at that stage by being a cunt, the lot of them.

Every rule needs an exception to prove it.

I give you the (half) billionaire Dolly Parton who got where she is by 60 years of hard work and being smart.

It’s probably a solid argument she would be far richer if she was more of a cunt.

It would be interesting to hear her thoughts on the current regime given her incredible lifelong support for literacy and supplying books to kids.

And yet it would make absolutely no difference, to anything :slightly_frowning_face:

They’re emboldened as racist rhetoric is now mainstream. The UK version of Project 2025 started in 2016 and by 2029 this sort of shit will be parotted by the UK government.

Would love to see Utd’s players, as a group, refusing to turn out for the horrible cunt. Not going to happen sadly.

Poor old racist billionaires having to flee the country because they can’t afford to pay their taxes.

Don’t want to pay their taxes, but at same time want the tax-man to prop up their businesses and fund rebuilding of stadiums, whilst blaming immigrants for being a burden on the state - its an insult that they don’t think we can see right through this.

They know “we” can. They also know it doesn’t matter and there is plenty of people who want to hear it, so it works.

Someone should point out to Ratcliffe that disgusting racists like him have colonised Monaco which can only be to the detriment of the local population.

Day to day, people in occupations that are not valued in ‘society’ face a similar indifference from their ‘management’ so this leads to a general sense of apathy.

Keep calm and carry on getting fucked. Zero accountability in that sphere and of course then there’s a similar disregard shown by most- if not all- political parties.

Then there’s the effects of the global financial crisis*; austerity; brexit; covid and now the reach of the Epstien Files- Mandy, Andy etc.

All of which quite understandably fuel that apathy and of course anger which the mainstream media seem to be training the population to blame on small boats; assylum hotels etc.

*Some years ago, I had the ‘pleasure’ of attending a wedding at Goodwood House.

A bridesmaids speech included a line making light of the collapse of Lehmann Brothers. A joke. I found it as funny as a broken leg.

Yet the table- yes that fucking big long banqueting table- roared with laughter. With the exception of two people. The reason why I didn’t laugh was because I remembered contemporary accounts of people taking their lives as they’d lost everything.
