And it played a large part on Marr this morning too. 


Yeah, it’s a big story, but folk have been so browbeaten with this shit and the damn near constant stream of awfulness, aligned with the new bullshit, that they’re just fucking tired.

 

’You are worn out now and depressed, the buffetings you have taken have been so constant that you do not know what it is to have a merry heart’ Homer.

 

That quote has been playing on my mind a lot recently.

Yeah, everyone knows they're corrupt. Everyone knows through the pandemic they lived a "one life for you, one life for the Tory government." And week after week there's another story about one or the other. 

 

The strangest thing of all is the popularity they maintain. You think people would be queueing up to boot them out now. That the red wall MPs would be trying to find a way to bin Alex to try and create another of their clean slates. But it seems the masses are pretty happy with the status quo.

The whole Bannon/disinformation cycle made flesh.

 

Flood the media with shit and let them be confused and seek sanctuary is playing out before our eyes.

 

You have two choices apathy or anger and both are direct results of choices made by others to subvert, or activate, demographics.

 

Its fucking bleak and the reason you get shit like the COVID thread and the EU thread on here. 
 

One side is looking for answers, the other demanding them and they’re not able to find them, or salvation and peace, as there’s far too much deliberate fucking nonsense floating about to argue over.

 

I long for simpler times.

I get there are diversions getting chucked out everywhere (the culture war)but there is a lot of stubbornness out there too.

Admitting they were wrong will be admitting they got a lot wrong (Brexit for example)

Much easier to just them get on with it.

Why the fuck would people who lived through 3/4 million unemployment in the 80s and 20 odd years of wage/vacancy stagnation believe they got brexit wrong? It's the one card Cummings got right and he pinched it from the Labour Party.

 

I understand some can't get out and about and take their info from social media/twitter,  but these are official figures and they hold a clue why the most incompetent, corrupt government in living memory is holding its own in the polls.

Liz Truss apes Thatcher in a Challenger 2 to say UK shouldn’t apologise for its colonial past. Would you like to know more?

The obvious comeback for Labour there is why are the torys cutting the army and why are they cutting army pay?

Politically? Maybe.

 

Socially hmm, 

like the eighties when we had 3/4 million unemployed, poverty was on such a scale that some sought solace in walking to their death in the sea?

 

Or maybe more recently when in simpler times (for you) we bombed Iraq and fucked up the whole Middle East and killed millions of innocents on the false premise of another country's possession of weapons of mass destruction? 

 

They the more "simple times" you yearn? You self obsessed fucking plank.

Just done a bit of reading on him, somewhat of a cunt isn't he?

 

Dead behind the eyes new breed Tory who'll parrot whatever his boss' boss wants him to.

 

He was defending the scrapping of the human rights act today saying it'll protect us from forrins, remarkably stupid.

 

Paul Mason repetedly handed him his arse, which was edifying.

#WhoWasAtTheParty is trending. I bet some folk are shitting themselves. One person speaks and this'll come down like the proverbial house of cards.

Apparently a few journalists were in attendance too. I'm not sure if anyone is a whistleblower though.

I think the Tories are pushing it too far now. There's a very fine line with keeping the mob onboard in this country, you can fuck them up the arse but you need to use the lube of pubs, Murdoch press, king and country and all that jazz, brazen corruption at their expense doesn't wash. There will be riots, oh yes, there will be riots.
