Stupid woman.
I came to realise that every time we recognise something human in creatures, we are also recognising something creaturely in ourselves. That is central to the rejection of human supremacism as the pernicious doctrine it is.

Careful now Outy, the cult of ''just having a laugh'' turned us into a country ruled by Boris Johnson, our chief clown who, in terms of greetings cards can expect many happy returns for the next few elections and obviously wishes you a happy peppa pigmas.

1: Most people are either tory voters or don't give a damn whether the tories are in power.....unfortunately.
2: Are we turning into America? If the largely secular part of the population think the minority part should shut the fuck up and stop spoiling the national ambience then the answer is yes....we are turning into America.

First statement untrue.

Second statement - what minority part are you thinking of? You do realise that the make up of the general public comprises of overlapping minorities and majorities and that your simplistic babbling sounds like the ranting of a Tory politician.

PS what is the national ambience - answers on a fucking postcard please.

I think the problem is that people see it as an issue of bumbling incompetence vs the potential for catastrophic incompetence, rather than callous indifference vs who knows because no-one can work out what the hell Starmer actually stands for vs are any of the Liberal Democrats still alive vs 'Shit Show' Farage's latest publicity stunt.

You just need to look at the headlines surrounding the Dobbs case in the US Supreme Court to see how far away from reality that comment is - we used to let people have opinions in this country, and if you weren't in the majority you had to suck it up. Now we have former majorities - like the vocal Christians - whining that someone's upset their feelings and expecting the world to change because of it. We're two chancer lawyers away from a court case because someone's hurt the feelings of the 'Baby Jesus TM'.

America? No, just a big cess pit that is quite offensive and needs protesting against.
