Vob @vob.bsky.social · 27mThe public discourse, regardless of changes in education, is still largely controlled by people who went to about four public schools. And they've passed 3 centuries of inbreeding at this point. 010
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 3hIts important for people to understand that he knows this. Monbiot often gets the benffit of the doubt because he sometimes says thing sabout the environment people like. But he knows this is a lie. Really. He says it because thats what he is paid to do. 1102
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 3hJust ask one question and the whole thing falls apart even in their fantasy? 'Will the Palistinian State be wllowed to have an army?' The only possible answer is no, which means its not actually a state at all. 061
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 4hIt was revoked because israel refused to join peace talks unless it was. 030
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 4hThe current government are -still- arming and providing intel to help israel kill children. They are -still- ruled by labour together, and by extension, mandelson. That party will never, ever, go into an alliance with the green party. 010
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 4hIts a failure of media I think. The ai companies themselves are never going to tell people, buty the media should. 'If you put something into your AI system, other people will eventually see it' This is the findemental way it operates. And otherwise intelligent people still don't grasp it. 050
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 5hAnyone still banging on a bout a 2 state solution, at the same time as israeli politicians, including the 'moderate' ones, are telling us they want to kill every man woman and child in the west bank, are cosplaying concern. They don't give a single shit about Palestinians. They are pro genocide. 0150
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 23h I was a kid when that happened. The joke at school was 'how do you know lord mountbatten had dandruff? They found his head and shoulders on the shore'. 12 year old me thought it was harsh. I later learned more about him, and decided the kids were right after all. 120
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Better to set up a business for supporting people through digital ID theft. There are about to be about 40 million customers. 120
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026We have 7,000 miles of coastline. 10 billion wouldn't be enough to cover London, which I suspect is the only place they're referring to. You'd need about 10 times that for the entire country. 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/20264 of the first 6 PMs of israel were members of UN-recognized terrorist organizations. Including one who mass murdered British citizens to force the country into existence. Every PM they ever had has overseen racist atrocities. It really, really is not complicated. 0235
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Most zionists are not Jewish. The biggest cohort is christian evangelicals, there are more of them than the entire global population of Jews. Of course, the fact they are zionists because they beleive Jews must live in Israel so they can burn to fuel the rapture is a whole other conversation. 081
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026You understand that the people who said this exact same thing about south afirca now look like the rascist fucks they always were, right? 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Its unacceptable discussion to them because, and only because, they already know they are on the wrong side of it. 0160
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The policy they are up in arms at, I feel I have to point out, never mentioned Jewish people once. 0111
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I rather think the idea that you can cover the entire 7,000 miles of our coastline with missile defence for 10 billion is the actual insane point. If they were honest and said they were only talking about london, it would still be seriously underfunded. 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 06/10/20267,000 miles of coastline. It would cost more than 10 billion quid just to get enough patrol boats to cover it all, let alone missile systems. Its utter fantasy. 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Its structural. We have a party system, at least in the Labour and Tories, that actively rejects anyone likely to rock the boat. In Labour, they changed the rules explicitly to prevent another corbyn. We have these leaders because they are the only leaders we can have in this system 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026What are they going to do when trump refuses to leave in 2028 I wonder. Because if hes still breathing at that point, he ain't leaving. 140
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Indeed. Herzl wanted Uganda to begin with. He was also a militant atheist who not only didn't beleive there was such as thing as god, he wouldn't wipe his arse with the bible george there is quoting. 170
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Or presented a tory leader as lord voldemort, and the licensing costs that brought for the public broadcaster. 040
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Yup. Its often ignored, but council houses were not the only option for renters in the 50s-70s, but they anchored pricing, keeping housing affordable. Its not just the supply thatcher ruined, she took away the anchor. 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Even 'if' you could drop costs by 50K, that saving would just turn into housebuilder profits. These are supposed to be arch capitalists, how do any of them not understand that if a house is proven to sell for £350K, that's the price it will be sold at, whether it cost £150K or 60p to build. 140
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Also ignores that the largest cohort of zionists are not Jewish at all, but are evangelical christians. Who are zionists for the sole reason of wanting the entire Jewish population to burn for their rapture. 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Hannan was born in Peru, the peopel both of them are trying to appease would absolutely having him out fo the country if they could, just as they would her. 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Its nonsensical too. Herzl was explicit about zionism's racist colonial structure and how that would be achieved when he wrote his books. Israel today is the same as the pre-israel zionism that blew up the King David Hotel. Its aways been this, so what zionism are they talking about? 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Zionism is 150 years old, founded by a devout atheist. It is neither complex not ancient, and herzl was very, very specific about what it is. He always described it as ethnonational. He told you, from day one, its a racist endeavour. 1222
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Austerity means taking money out of the economy. Deliberately. The opposite of growth. Clearly. 030
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026She still gets invited onto the BBC, and is invited to all the spectator parties and wherever the good people gather. So no. 030
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Indeed. They you get WHy evangelical christians just love zionism. Because they need all Jews in Israel so the rapture can begin, with the Jews buring to fuel it. They are, in fact, both the biggest supporters of zionism and the most overtly antisemtic group in the western world. 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026The motion never mentioned jewish people once. If you are suggesting zionism and Judaism are the same thing you ar ebeing antisemitic. In fact, the largest number of zionists are US evangelical christians. There are more of them then the global Jewish population. 160
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Its also silly, because zionism has never, at any point in its 150 year history, 'just' wanted a homeland. Herzl first wanted to take over at least parts of Uganda, then they settled on Palestine. It has been, from day one, about replacing other ethnicities. 000
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 05/10/2026If you insist on equating Jewish self-determination with the state of Israel as it exists in reality, and ONLY that, then it is clear that self-determination is, in fact, racist. 1371
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 04/10/2026Should be noted that we have established in court that zionism is not a protected belief in this country. Also, zionism is not Judaism, and conflating the 2 is actually antisemitic. There are more non-Jewish zionists than Jewish ones. US evangelicals alone outnumber the global Jewish population. 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 04/10/2026This is very true. Hope and change have been offered by the last 5, maybe even 6 prime ministers. 4 of which no one really voted for in terms of how everyone sees our democracy working. When burnham turns out to be a liar too, and he will, will the public stop believing in elections? Every chance. 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 04/10/2026In the run up the election he a) turned up at the semotaph, hungover like he's just come off freshers week b) literally hid in a fridge when someone asked him a tough question and wouldn't come out till they left 99.5% of the uk public wouldn't know either event ever happened, thanks to our media. 010
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 03/10/2026Went to my first CLP meeting with my dad when kinnock was leader. From day one, the thing 15 year old me noticed most of all was the cliques. It was worse than my school, and in the 30 years of being a member of the party, none of that ever changed. 150
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I want to see the frame where the fat american with a penchant for cod latin kills 200,000 people because he was too busy writing a book to deal with covid properly. It must surely be in there. 010
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 03/10/2026And once again, the fall came after people in his own party joined in. I don't believe this time is organic either. Last one was labour together, this time, likely straight up media payment. 010
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I mean, if you are going to promote literacy, perhaps using a book that had to have it's title changed specifically beacuse the publisher through Americans would not understand the word 'Philosopher' is probaly not the way to go. Regardless of author. 0555
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Worth noting that this GB TV station is mostly funded by a dubai based investment fund. Once again, allowing foriegn money to buy up infrastructure and cultural institutions leads to unaccountable side effects. 1120
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026My favourite one is Mary Leigh, who threw an axe at the prime minister in an assassination attempt. She missed and hit another official. Then you see the idiots who lionise the suffragettes up in arms because JSO blocked a road. 040
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026If you want to know what AI can do, the last people you ask are the billionaires that run AI companys. Every one of them is living in a fantasyland of capabilty, because no one around them dares to explain the reality. 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Its not even that deep. As she tweeted in September "I’ve written a book. It’s called Patriot: Empire, Betrayal and Hope’. " It was released yesterday. 001
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026I mean, if they DO get off lightly because of this, what do they think happens next? Everyone knows they are cheats. Nothing the club does, no trophy they win, even the players as individuals, means jack shit. The telling thing is that they cannot see its over already. 020
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026My experience of the inner workings of Labour is that, in general, the centre and right of the party don't really like anyone. Including each other. There will always be friction at the top, but with streeting and mahmood still in place, burnham is starmerism with a better presentation. 060
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026There were African soldiers stationed on Hadrian's Wall when it was built. Some never left. They have literally been here since before England existed, but apparently their descendants are not English, according to her. 040
Vob @vob.bsky.social · 02/10/2026If burnham was not an active participant, the leader of labour together would not have given up is 90k a year plus expenses job to get burnham into westminster. He's just as much part of it as mcsweeney or the rest of them. That's why Mahmood is still home secretary. 1102
