Yes, i am going to ' throw the shoe' at that one  my boy. ?  K

You think that's bad, you should see what the Israelies are up to.
I read the article, the source is a bit shit though.
I'm not sure what your point is.

What has Palestinian domestic abuse got to do with Israel Mark? Genuine question.

Any libertarians got opinions on Koch, Soros, & other billionaires who make it their business to swing other people's?

It'd be interesting to read some undisputable facts about what these individuals are actually doing to swing other people's opinions. There was a very interesting programme about how Soros has become a bogeyman for the right and receiving the "credit" for lots that he and his organisations have nothing to do with, also lots of anti-Semitic issues around this.

Assuming that they are doing things to influence voters etc, how is it different to or is it any worse than the involvement of Cambridge Analytica in the vote leave and trump campaigns? both of which may not have won without their data harvesting and targeted advertising tactics. 

There's lots of dubious information on both sides and plenty of conspiracy theories to add to the genuinely possible options.

Not a great deal mate. Kev posted that as bait, I did what I could to diffuse it.

There's bad apples in every bunch of grapes.

You know I'm pro Palestine. Also, that Gatestone right-wing shitrag isn't worth the pixels that it's rendered on.

I know mate...

But...
Gatestone does at least have Palestinian Muslims on the payroll though...

They don’t have much time for the PA or Hamas.... they wouldn’t be able to operate or publish what they see in the areas under PA/Hamas control though. Very short life expectancy an’ all that...

Abbas’ elected term should have been up a decade ago, yet there he is still in power siphoning off millions $$$$ and making a major contribution to the misery of ‘his’ people.

It’s not just Israels fault Mark, surely you can see that Mark?

What isn't just Israels fault?

Seperate question:
Do you think that a less corrupt political situation would have evolved without the annexation of the West Bank?

This BLM shit has gone too far.

Watching the BBC going on about this plane in Burnley like it was a big deal.
What did the banner say that was so offensive exactly? 

 

Its exactly what happens when you ram this bollocks too far down people’s throats, they see it for what it is push back against it.

 

It is like a competition to see who can look the most virtuous, a bit like the clap for carers palaver which ended up with people accusing other streets/people of not clapping hard enough. It was getting like the cultural revolution in China.

 

Whats next? I reckon it’s transgender rights, it’s the latest thing where we are being gaslit into thinking day is night, dogs are cats and you are cancelled if you point out the facts.

 

You have to toe the line, wear the badge, repeat the mantra, put the appropriate thing up on social media.

 

A school where my nephew and niece go has cancelled naming a wing after JK Rowling because of her ‘transphobic’ comments. All she did was point out that using the word ‘menstruators’ to describe biological women was stupid. 
Then wrote a considered piece about the whole issue, in which I challenge anyone to find anything ‘transphobic’ (get used to that word btw)

 

Morning all anyway.
