iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

Just double checking you know it's not Zack's poem? He credits the legend BZ at the end. Your mention of the beaker people, coming over here with their simple drinking vessels, made me think you did. What's wrong with drinking from cupped hands?!? [Ref Stewart Lee]

I didn't miss your point, but it seems you missed mine. Sadly, I don't think an exchange over social media will change either of our views, but my point is that there is a distinction between terrorists, and starving women & children trying to get food and water. The latter are being killed.

What Hamas did was truly awful. But it's undeniable that what is happening to innocent Palestinians now is also truly awful. Protesters are asking for the killing and death to stop, and yet that's seen as controversial.

It's utterly mad. These people are the opposite of terrorists. THEY WANT PEACE. The police know they're not terrorists. The government knows they're not terrorists. Yet, on the Home Secretary's orders, they're being arrested under the Terrorism Act. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

No its that a retired priest CAN be arrested on terrorism charges, facing up to 14 years imprisonment, for holding up a sign. Understand your point- she knew what she was doing and the likely outcome -but that doesn't make this situation OK imo. It is the wider Orwellian dystopia that's the concern.

Well, Mat, we're on a thread about an 83 year old retired priest being arrested, effectively for objecting to 60k deaths. So the parallel you then draw is the injury of 3 responding officers and a security guard. You are right, there is literally no point and probably a reason it's all the time...

There must be something more than that though? That can't be the worst assault? Surely.

I feel by now enough has happened in the US that we should see protests of 3-5+ million people — despite the chaos and repression. My question to Americanists & comparativists is: why is it not happening? What do people with these expectations get wrong about the US? Is it a matter of time?

In 'normal' times, would this not be considered as libel?

Widespread protest / demonstrations? It can't be left to others. James O'Brien posted today: "Normality bias - ‘the tendency to underestimate the likelihood or impact of a potential hazard, based on the belief that things will continue as they have in the past’ - is a very hard habit to break."

There it is! "Putin went through a hell of a lot with me. He went through a phony witch hunt." He is referring to them weathering their collusion becoming public, and now is the big payback: together until the end.

This is truly shameful. Even China and Iran abstained. The US has put itself in the company of some of the worst states in the world - Russia, Belarus, North Korea. Hungary showing its true colours as Russia's Trojan horse in the EU as well.

Yeah, a good point. Silver lining: it's a wake up call for people over here - we can't be passengers and "just wait and see" / "I'm sure it'll be fine"

Are "most of" you though? Genuine question from across the pond. There still seems to be a lot of support for the actions being taken - it blows my mind, but I don't see any real objection / counter to these crazy actions. A "tut-tut" isn't going to do it here...
