Legendary Comic George Carlin Once Predicted Televised Executions to ‘Distract People’ From ‘How Bad They’re Being F*cked’
Three decades before plans to livestream an execution were announced, George Carlin imagined that capital punishment could become televised entertainment.

The ‘moderation service’ on here is truly fucked. You can see all sorts of horrible atrocities but a pair of painted tits immediately gets flagged as ‘Adult Sexually Explicit’ Puritanical cunts.

Sarah Pochin raised "concerns" in parliament about the impact of second homes on rural communities. Two days later she purchased an £800,000 second home on Anglesey. Remarkable stuff. www.theguardian.com/politics/202...

Boycotting Green Day after they insulted the MAGA agenda. Punk rock should NOT be political. Punk rock is about and has ALWAYS been about the following: -respecting cops. -upholding the patriarchy. -saluting the flag, standing for the national anthem, and unconditionally supporting the military.

Also ritual... The journalist Robert Evans @iwriteok.bsky.social has spoken about when he once interviewed someone who grew up in 1920s Germany. Whenever the family managed to obtain an egg the whole family would ritually watch their father eat it.

I must say I’m very disappointed in the police over their dealing with the RAF Fairford incident. By announcing that the suspects are British nationals, they have completely undermined the stream of made up bollocks from myself and every other right wing gobshite on Twitter.

Day 1: They are definitely illegal immigrants who came over on a small boat to destroy our nation with bombs. Day 2: They are Brits who were fly-tipping. Day 3: Libs are lying to us about Day 2, because reasons Day 4: Please donate to our forthcoming r̴i̴o̴t̴ protest at RAF Fairford

The ritual begins when the first one falls asleep and everyone ritually rallies to shave off half an eyebrow or draw a cock and balls on his cheek.

God is dead. And you killed Him. Not the atheists. Not the skeptics. You! Christian! Every time you weaponize Scripture, and preach hatred in the name of the Prince of Peace, you bury the very God you claim to defend. Faith dies from hypocrisy. Stop pretending you love God. You only love your ego.

There needs to be more writing on how homosexual, in the sense of man-loving, the modern conservative man actually is. They idolize masculine figures in sports, war, and film and only seem to want women around to make more of themselves.

Farage posted this at 12.38 today. It has been hopelessly overtaken by events and shown to be entirely wrong (British nationals involved and they've been released on bail - not very terrorist-like). And if you believe anything Trump says, you are a credulous moron.

"Duty". Jacob Rees-Mogg. A man who has spent his life, literally since childhood, in the sociopathic pursuit of wealth, and the opportunity to cosplay the kind of Edwardian buffoon who set the stage for the carnage of the First World War. Not worth your spit, frankly.

At some point the Parties that put in all their effort to destroy socialism and destroy any hope of a more fair society need to look in the mirror and see their role in the rise of Fascism.
