    Work so hard you cripple yourself

    All the more reason to be concerned and to make sure that they don't dominate. This is why, as a result of generations of struggle by "the many", we have democracy. It wasn't given to us willingly from above. - the french revolution helped clear their minds. Very real fear of the guillotine...

    US Election November 5th

    Called "moving the Overton window" whereby any old rubbish repeated often enough becomes the new normal. America is almost fascist state and will be one definitely if the orange man gets in.

    But they haven't have they. Were they marching on Capitol Hill and were deaths reported? I think that is a wise decision!

    Work so hard you cripple yourself

    Looking at survival of the species as the common goal I'd say that we are very near to that ideal, in fact we have over shot it to a great extent and now need to cooperate in remedying the damage we have done to the planet and our environment Fair enough, we are all different to some extent...

    Work so hard you cripple yourself

    Not "punitive" at all, merely the price of civilisation and should be taken for granted. They should be pleased and proud to think that thanks to their hard work and expertise, or good luck, or inheritance, that they are in a position to improve the lives of all, not just a few. It's amazing...

    Morning Star being thoughtful about Starmer! Maybe he is a secret socialist? I don't suppose he knows himself - he goes with the flow. https://morningstaronline.co.uk/article/starmer-right-defend-tax-rises-will-labour-target-richest

    Can I make all usual structures with just wood from my small woodland?

    Jealous! One obvious priority would be to extract firewood for heating your home. That could entail managing appropriate species and coppicing etc. Maybe look at "management" in general as a first step? Loads of books on the topic - see Oliver Rackham for starters, on how woodland has...

    Isn't that exactly what Trump did in 2021? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January_6_United_States_Capitol_attack Do you think he wouldn't do it again? They had one in 2021. Maybe you didn't know this? Or could Wikipedia be lying again...

    Really? I see MSM as the main source of misinformation, including lies and propaganda, at all levels, including The Guardian. You will only get sued for some very specific things, mainly slander. Other than that it's just a telling off from IPSO. It's excellent on information about what people...

    US Election November 5th

    Wiki articles are subject to continuous review and on controversial topics can be changed overnight. I noticed this myself some months ago when quoting/linking to something about Israel. Following day it had been edited beyond recognition. Israelis are noted for that sort of thing, termed...

    Work so hard you cripple yourself

    An interesting thing to say! Are you trying that old teacher trick of saying something utterly preposterous to see if anybody in the class is still awake? :ROFLMAO: Is there anybody nodding off at the back who can't see that the truth is almost exactly the opposite? In fact civilisation has...

    Work so hard you cripple yourself

    A common misrepresentation of the argument which deliberately muddles the issue. It's not about equal distribution, it's about raising money to pay for public services etc. Easiest to take it from those who have it in excess. More of the mega rich simply inherit it. Let them ouef off. They...

    US Election November 5th

    It's conspiracy theory at work. K Harris is totally legitimate and the procedure was quite clear (scroll down here) but people like @danst96 are attracted to the conspiracy idea, for reasons best known to themselves. I guess it's just laziness, or fear? They don't understand what's going on or...

    It's called using an "ad hominem" argument and is precisely what you are doing yourself. You don't seem to know anything at all about Socialism or Islam. What do you think of the idea that J Christ was a socialist?

    In what way fishy? What have you spotted that everybody else has missed? What is wrong with the Wikipedia summary? Do you know of a better one? Any links?
