Ben @barscott.bsky.social · 11/02/2026No, Arsenal are boring. Klopp’s Liverpool, Pep’s City, Arsene’s arsenal, Jose’s Chelski, Sir Alex’s Scum were never accused of coma inducing dullness even though teams set up against them the same way as they do against Little Mikel’s Arsenal. Stop taking the bait and blaming others. Revel in it! 520
Ben @barscott.bsky.social · 19/11/2025You might think this is a big fuss about nothing, but the phrase ‘man up’ is very lazy and out of date. You’re a good journalist/writer, please find better words. 190

Ben @barscott.bsky.social · 16/10/2025Not weird. Perfectly normal and expected from this kind of administration. It’s far past time to pretend we expect ‘better’ of them. It’s not pandering, it’s normalising the demonisation of political opponents and giving license/excuses to violence against them before it inevitably happens. 110
Ben @barscott.bsky.social · 16/10/2025He tells us exactly what he intends to do, and does it. Evil doesn’t need to be ironic to be dangerous. It just needs to be normalised while we laugh. Call it what it is. Evil. Planned. Ongoing. “Trump puts the hippo in hypocrite” won’t stop it. 020
Ben @barscott.bsky.social · 16/10/2025We don’t sit around analysing the “paradoxes” of history’s villains. We don’t call Hitler’s worldview hypocritical, or mock Stalin for being bad at logic.

Reposted by BenSupertanskiii @supertanskiiii.bsky.social · 17/05/2025The reality is, Britain economically benefits from immigration and illegal migration is too small to impact most. The communities that blame immigration for decline are actually suffering the effects of 15 yrs of Tory austerity, under-investment in public infrastructure and the reality of Brexit. 932162549
