Maar het is toch gezellig als de samenleving de rekening betaalt? Neem nou de Oranje Nassaumijnen bij Heerlen. Daar had een bedrijf de winst, de staat mocht opruimen. Dan de NAM. Nu het vuurwerk. Oh en we dokken flink voor een kernwapen dat we niet hebben. Maar ja socialisme hè da's onbetaalbaar..

Groetjes uit Engeland, waar lafaards steun bij elkaar zoeken door zich in het zwart te kleden voordat ze een Brits of Engels vlaggetje aan een lantaarnpaal vast maken. En als iemand er wat van zegt zijn ze een landverrader. Lekkere boel joh, dat Putinisme.

I put out a FB post in my local community group, asking what it might take for them to vote in local elections. It's a ward of a big town in Greater Manchester, which is landlocked. Facing housing shortages. Small boats. HMOs. I despair.

Writers.. What devices do you use, unless you're entirely analogue? I'm tempted by a e-writer maybe, as laptops are a bit full of distractions and ink/paper a bit messy. Curious

No you (the US) need to own him. Don't release your capitalist in chief onto a smaller country. Contain him, asset-strip him, then waterboard him until he agrees to pay back the state subsidies that have sustained his leverage. Let's then see him make an actual profit from what he creates.

Hahahaha. Hahahaha! Sorry, it's a good point but I'm just picturing a Lab/LD/SNP government hammering out a coalition agreement. Let's face it, this result would give us a Con/Ref minority government looking to push things through via the Lords they swamped with cronies. And some Labour turncoats

In Scotland they understand that Labour don't pander to the right. They are the right. I sincerely hope England wakes up to that.

It's totalitarianism. Despotism. And yeah, few communist states have been democratic. That doesn't mean banning a free press is a communist thing to do.

It does matter, because it's exploitative. Selling lies is lucrative, and it's easier when a mark experiences grief or fear. Priests and mediums don't usually hand out emotional support blankets expecting nothing in return.

NetherSchot 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇳🇱 @netherschot.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Well yeah but let's not pretend it wasn't a problem before that. It's just that previously we didn't give nazi punks and skinhead bootlickers a free global platform led by a South African white supremacist, and other aligned tools.

So good you posted it twice? Please look up Nazi caricatures of Jews and compare your depiction of Zelensky. research.calvin.edu/german-propa... Just because we (probably) align against Trump doesn't mean lazy stereotypes are acceptable.

Will it? History is written by the winners. Thus far, nothing suggests that Trump can lose. The most brazenly corrupt president ever remains in office, smashing through every firewall that the US erected to be a land of the free. Smash them in the present.

This, from a guy who owns two golf courses in Scotland. None in England. Can't we make him a persona non grata already? What does it take?

No, not enjoying that. You've given Zelensky heavier eyebrows and pointier ears. Caricature, probably. Anti-Semitic trope, definitely.

The concept of Satan is "one who leads man astray" from the Abrahamic faiths. An Antichrist is a false prophet. While Trump is arguably both, equating him to canonical evil suggests faith is the opposite: it's good. It isn't. In a world of shepherds leading sheep over a cliff edge, be a humanist.

I hope it's not too patronising a point but ICE is much more like the SA - Sturm Abteilung. The Gestapo (secret state police) is represented by the broligarchs. The actual Gestapo would've loved Ring doorbells, Flock cams, smart TV's and connected cars!

Yes, Queen's chancellor is Hillary Rodham Clinton. She's not a Yank as such, seen as she's from Chicago. But as she's been a NY state senator I guess that counts.

Having views entirely aligned with Breivik is fine, but aligning with Thunberg is criminal. And yes if Labour support that view, they need to get replaced with Plaid, Sinn Fein, SNP, Greens sooner rather than later.

Hmm as a motorcyclist I hate speed bumps. Not because I'm speeding everywhere. More usually they're a car-width so they launch bikers going over the middle, or they're slippery. Chicanes are worse though, gravelly potholed pits with cars parked on it usually. We could just design narrow roads..

Cars have computers on board and lots of "smart" features. Oddly, no biometric sign-in to deter theft and (speeding) fraud, no geo-fencing so certain cars can't get into town. We can have lane detection, not speed detection, and can monitor tyre pressures but not bullying behaviour. So odd.

Nah, there have always been many Antichrists, deceivers of the righteous. Heretics. Trump and his posse qualify, using Jesus' name only to gain power. Anyway it just depends whose dogma is regarded as truth. God smiles only on humanists: they love mankind and can't be swayed by false prophets.

030

NetherSchot 🇪🇺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇳🇱 @netherschot.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

I don't disagree at all, but I do get particular at language sometimes. Sinistra (left) became spooky, daemon (a god) now is a ghoul, heresy (choice) became sin, and an Antichrist (heretic Messiah) came to mean "devil". So Trump really is an Antichrist. Humanists nor believers need his dogma.

True for Capone and the Krays, but if you can add being a politician to the mix, then those rules do not apply anymore.

At this point just give up and rename every city Trumptown, every road Trump Road/Drive/Avenue and every state Donaldia. Let's see Google maps and Apple maps cope with that. Break the system by complying.

One of my favourite accounts on Twitter was @therealyplac.bsky.social which seems a thing here too? I'm at a hospital in Oldham, UK. There are plenty parking spots, but parking on double yellows is free. And apparently fine, if you block the pavement rather than the road.

A car occupies the pavement across double yellow lines in the top part of a collage. The bottom part shows another car joined it hours later

For the same reason Jimmy Savile never defended himself against such claims. He does not need to. There is an omerta, and nothing gets through court. If justice will be served, it'll be after he's died.
