Can you really not figure that out?
A few years back, Brexit was impossible. It was still improbable last year. The cunts running the shop exert and perpetuate control by various means, propaganda being a key component. Fear being another. Lies. Deceit. Misdirection. False assumptions. Half the story. Gatekeeping. The goal is to keep people as ignorant as possible, and therefore in need of the enlightened ones to make decisions on their behalf. And, of course, guess who benefits? Brexit indicates realisation and a small pushback. There haven't been many setbacks to the globalists' plans, but Brexit is a genuine example. These are your "stupid" people who, granted, have their flaws, but are reaching a point that has been reached many times in history before real change has occurred. If the self interested lot who wanted to remain in the EU are now in a minority. That begins to at least open a door for change that may come in the future. Probably a distant future still, but there have to be signs of life at least. Brexit was that - a sign that yes, we are still aware, just.

Are you incapable of thinking in broader terms than those framed by the people who claim to lead you? Forget about buses FFS! This isn't about stupid political hacks doing what they do to maintain their positions at the front of the queue. Do you never look beyond what is placed under your nose? You have no capacity to understand these things if you really think such a landmark reversal was brought about by stupid political hacks. It's like that idiot Dawkins - all done in a day. Political reversals are never achieved in a day, or a month, year. It takes decades, maybe centuries. Perceptions have to change. Deprogramming has to occur. Realisation has to grow. Sentiment has to shift. Right across millions of people who, taken as a whole, are generally politically inert (hence the survival of the one party state).
You see the battles (or maybe the skirmishes within them) but you can't seem to reach the inevitable conclusion that multiple battles = war.
Right now, everything you say suggest you are a globalist. If you had the capacity to zoom right out and look at globalism as a whole, and if you still supported that, you'd be an enemy to mankind. But you don't have that capacity or refuse to engage it, so you zoom right in and read the side of a bus. Then you reach your conclusions, which just so happen to be the exact same conclusions the mainstream offered you all along.
Arsenal are 6th in the league, are in the cup semis, and have qualified for the CL 20 years in a row. Therefore they are a highly successful club. Right? Or wrong? Choose ONE answer and don't embellish.

Do you actually want all those Muslims in the UK?
General question to everyone.
Do you want millions of Muslims and their mosques and traditions to become a core element of British culture?
Me - no way. I don't. I want their mosques gone and them gone too. Not because I'm racist, I don't judge them at all on skin colour or whatever country they originate from if it's not Britain, but because I don't like their culture and I find it incompatible with ours. I'd rather they practised their culture in Muslim countries rather than ours.
Does this mean I want to see Muslims rounded up and deported? Nope. What rules have been made were made, what deals have been done were done. We live with the consequences. But I want us to stop making stupid rules and stupid deals. And EU immigration rules are about as stupid as it's possible to be. Anyone want to argue that's NOT the case?
On an individual basis I'm sure I could find 1,001 Muslims to get along with just fine, and have done. But in general terms I see their culture becoming ever more pervasive. Which has to mean the British culture is in decline. Which is the point of globalisation, btw. Multiculturalism is the destruction of culture. Diversity (as defined by globalisation) is homogenisation.
I would also like Spain to be predominantly Spanish, France to be French and (poor old Ireland) Ireland to be Irish though that ship sailed.
I like the British culture. I like living here. I like change, have no problem with it and it's a requirement of life. But obliteration and transformation? No, I don't like or want that. Study birth rates and then try to deny where we're heading.
Goes without saying, I want our bastard politicians to stop bombing Muslim countries.
Anyone else have their own opinion (rather than an approved opinion) on the matter? Might as well speak. The 'liberals' will soon have removed that right entirely so make hay.
A guy I work with claims we've got our country back.
I'm pretty sure he has absolutely no idea what he even means by that.
I'm goin on a march, cos I want Britain to be back British.

Perceptions have to change. Deprogramming has to occur. Realisation has to grow. Sentiment has to shift.
And maybe this is where we differ. You see this result as a sign of that, I don't.
People voted for stupid reasons (on both sides) as they always have. If we got to the right result (and that is far from clear) then it was not because of a growing realisation.
And the question about Arsenal cannot be answered with a simple yes or no, successful in what regard, compared to who? Too complicated a question to give a yes or no answer. And the answer depends on your perspective (board member, fan, rival fan etc).
I don't particularly like Globalisation - one of the things I like about Paris is it has a very distinct feel about it and one of the things I don't like when I go overseas is when there's Joe's Caff on every corner. But, multiculturalism has undoubtedly enriched us as a nation. Obviously balance is needed, "keep 'em all out" is as woolly headed as "let 'em all in" but I don't think many people are seriously suggesting either extreme.

He parked up half a mile a way and called to say he had arrived! He then got all arsey when I wasn't there, so he cancelled and the cheeky cunts charged me a cancelation fee. They gave it back to me as a credit rather than cash, thieving bastards.

And in this instance the action he took was justified
There is a possibility that the Russian condemnation of this is all smoke and mirrors, and they have accepted that something was going to be done after Assad was caught red handed using chemical weapons again.

We SHOULD be bombing the shit out of ISIS. That's why Uncle Tom has been fighting Trump every step of the way, because ISIS was Uncle Tom's device for getting at Assad and damn the consequences. That's who these "rebels" are - ISIS or Al'Qaeda or Mujahideen or whatever they are being called in this latest regeneration of the same role. This chemical attack bullshit has taken the ground out from under Trump. America is so programmed to turning to the military option a president wouldn't last 5 minutes if a clear opportunity cropped up and wasn't taken. Trump is finding out that even with a millions strong army you need a hell of a lot of firepower to resist the globalists and their warmongering agenda.

But if Trump's hand is forced and he drives Russia beyond a red line then what's fantasy now becomes an inevitable reality.

No you're right it was foolish for people to think he would be opposed to military action.
I think a lot of people will simply be opposed to this because it's Trump. Well no it's what Obama should have had the balls to do four years ago. It's what Cameron tried to get done, until that slime bag Milliband made sure it didn't go through parliament.
And in this instance the action he took was justified
There is a possibility that the Russian condemnation of this is all smoke and mirrors, and they have accepted that something was going to be done after Assad was caught red handed using chemical weapons again.
There's not a single shred of evidence from anyone that hasn't taken a side that Assad's forces used chemical weapons. Which is not to say he didn't, and if he did then he deserves to be ousted for being so suddenly stupid and incompetent after all these years somehow clinging to power by not being stupid and incompetent. The last chemical attack was so much bullshit and that has faded away. The Russian shootdown of airliners. Bullshit again. Keep going back and you'll find all these hot button incidents have a very different narrative once the heat has died down and the objectives have been achievedfucked up beyond all recognition. Don't you get what's happening here?

What next N_Q are you going to provide me documentation to prove that IS are Israeli funded?
Do i think Syria is a proxy war?....yes....and unfortunately America has itself tied up in knots because of it's support for Saudi Arabia who are indeed funding ISIS, the same way Assad is sponsored not just by Russia but by Iran and Hezbollah.
I think both sides are equally evil. If you want to argue like Assad does that any opposition to his rule has from the beginning been the work of Jihadis and that Jihadis weren't massively emboldned in their recruitment process by Assad's abject brutality.
It is a fractured mess and the Syrian people are caught up in the middle, but that doesn't fit into the narrative of the people who are trying to dehumanise them when they flee that hell hole and come to Europe.

From what I’ve been reading, the relationship between the Saudi’s and Obama’s administration was pretty chilly compared to his previous administrations. It grew worse after the Iran Nuclear deal. Why has Trump jumped back in with them to mend the relationship? He’s torn up the nuclear deal with Iran and his team have ‘officially put Iran on notice’, I mentioned the botch Yeman attack….if Trump wanted to distance himself from the ‘warmongering globalists’ why not keep his distance from the Saudi’s?
It can’t be because of oil, can it? I read Canada are now the top suppliers when it comes to US imported oil and I would have thought the pipeline deals Trump’s pushing ahead could potentially push the Saudi’s further down the line. Also, I’m sure a read some months back that Iran had announced they were open to trading oil with the rest of world but since Trump tore up that nuclear deal, threatened them with more sanctions and Iran abandoning the Dollar for Euros, it just looks like Trump is pushing ahead with the Saudi’s agenda. I don’t understand why.

I didn't claim any of those points you are trying to pin. My entire focus was on Washington's fascination with provoking conflict with Russia. It has been going on for years and was supposed to culminate in the ushering in of warhawk, albeit of the utterly incompetent variety, Clinton. We'd probably be right on the brink by now with her at the wheel. As it is, they are finding other ways to drive us there. Don't know where the Israeli angle came from. Right out of the blue. Perhaps insinuating there's an anti-Semitic undertone to my opinions? I don't need undertones or hints - I don't like Israelis full stop. I hate most of the Jews that find their ways to senior positions because they seem to be abusive and deceitful almost without exception. Don't like Saudis either, nor any of the regimes the Americans, Russians and Europeans have cooked up in the region to be honest. But who I like or don't like is irrelevant. Same applies to you. However, if any side resorts to violence, it won't be the politicians being called up. The history books tell us what's happening here, just another go around. If the nationalists prevail we get to live a bit longer in our fucked up world, that's the best deal on the table. But if the globalists prevail we lose as a species, potential, in many cases our lives. Lots of players on the stage but that doesn't disguise the main protagonists. Who is Assad except a piece to be moved around the board? Another puffed up product of imperialism. Anyone who thinks removing Assad solves a single problem is missing almost the entire picture. It would potentially create a hell of a lot of problems though. Of course we saw that with Saddam and others who have gone before, but that's history to be forgotten.

The trick will be adjusting the balance slowly, although I'd much rather see it done fast and American boots in Riyadh, the one country that deserves a good invasion. Won't happen though, so at the same time as having to keep relations alive with a country that barely conceals its role in terrorism against the west, Trump has to ease an energy plan into place that will outlast his presidency - because cunts in the mould of Clinton would roll it all back. Nobody else has touched this in decades. It has always been status quo and expense accounts.

That's not true. Canada took over as the number one supplier for the U.S 10 years ago and continues to grow. That's nothing to do with Trump. The pipeline deals were being discussed before Trump took office but Obama rejected them. As said, with Obama distancing himself for the Saudi's and pushing them down the list when it comes to oil dependency, it makes no sense for Trump to form a close relationship with them. I can't see the need.

Judge Uncle Tom by his actions, not his serpentine words. Billion dollar arms deals and Saudi's staunchest defender in terms of blocking legitimate legal challenges from the victims of Saudi terror.

You can't pass 10 years of policy off as it was all Trump's idea. Canada can't supply all the oil needs for the U.S but I guess that is why you look for alternative energy sources. Does the renewed relationship mean the Saudi's enemies are now Trumps enemies? Iran and Yemen?

I said he's done more to promote energy independence that a whole bunch of presidents before him, including Uncle Tom with his cosy arms dealing and veto pen.

What does 'more to promote' mean? Words? Looking at the facts, the last president has actually cut U.S dependency on middle eastern oil with the Saudi's losing their number 1 ranking to Canada. A policy in place before Trump. Diplomatic relations weren't severed but they weren't as friendly as previous President's and it looks like Trump has rekindled that friendship. There was no need for Trump to form a closer relationship with the Saudi's from the looks of it. You're wrong about him doing more than any other President. He looks to be linking arms again. You definitely can't blame it on Obama.

Found our previous discussion from January. From Brexit to Trump.
http://www.goonersweb.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=8&page=2172
The Petrodollar. If that goes down the America goes down and America won't go down without shooting off everything it's got.
There is no contradiction in what I am saying. I hate the Saudis, I think they are animals, not even human. But, I'm assuming (correct me if I'm wrong) that we don't want a nuclear war or a total and final financial collapse? If we agree on that much then we are forced to agree, whether we like it or not, that the US and Saudis must remain aligned at this point in time. Because the continuance of the Petrodollar rests on them, that's how fucking stupid successive US regimes have been. And if China decides to participate in any sort of attack on the Petrodollar, maybe under the disguise of reluctantly protecting its own contracting and probably collapsing economy, then that will be that. So it would be insanely dangerous to provoke that situation right now. If and when the US does secure energy self sufficiency then that's going to be even more dangerous but this is where your criticism finds an answer. Deprived of an option to just blow everything up, how can the Saudis be cut out of the picture? How can they be marginalised, ostracised and sanctioned like the bastards should have been, in any just world, years ago? We don't live in a just world but we want to carry on living. I hope whoever is pulling Trump's strings knows the answer because the other lot sure as hell didn't have a clue.
Aren't the American's trying to wean themselves off Saudi oil with the Keystone pipeline from Canada and the Dakota pipeline? Isn't that what Trump just approved? Also, why back out of the agreement with Iran and sour relations if it means the US can get oil from the Saudi's rivals? Isn't that how the Saudi's are cut out the picture?
Either way, whatever the purpose for not severing diplomatic ties with the Saudi's, you're presenting an argument to maintain the status quo in order to keep the peace and economic stability. Isn't that a similar argument many have posed when talking about Brexit and staying part of the EU? The people for it aren't in favour of bigger governments that can't be held accountable, it's just a complex mess nobody has a clear solution for. But saying that, it doesn't mean people aren't pissed off with the injustice and corruption seen. I still don't get why you box people into brackets so often and defend Trump's policies when defiance and protest is a good sign to show that people aren't falling for the okie doke. If we're having to topple governments and demonize a religious group for the sake of oil, isn't it time we found a cleaner and new energy source and have governments push for that instead of this other bullshit?

You've cited examples I made months ago. I'm not just saying 'you're wrong' I've given clear examples with Canada. You can check the figures for yourself and I was just reading the below. The last administration clearly cut the US dependency on foreign oil.
http://money.cnn.com/2016/07/21/investing/trump-energy-plan-obama-oil-boom/
https://www.forbes.com/sites/rrapier/2016/01/15/president-obamas-petroleum-legacy/#7b5d5c4c10fd
There is a great irony that spans the presidential terms of George W. Bush and Barack Obama. President Bush, widely viewed as a Texas oil man, presided over eight straight years of declining U.S. crude oil production. In the year 2000, just before President Bush took office, U.S. crude oil production averaged 5.8 million barrels per day (bpd) according to the Energy Information Administration (EIA). During President Bush's last year in office, 2008, U.S. crude oil production averaged 5.0 million bpd.
The irony is that President Obama - who is not viewed as a friend of the oil and gas industry - has presided over rising oil production in each of the seven years he has been in office. (On a separate note, expect that streak to be broken in 2016). From that low point in 2008, U.S. oil production has grown each year to reach 9.4 million bpd in 2015 -- a gain of 88% during Obama's presidency. This is in fact the largest domestic oil production increase during any presidency in U.S. history
I'm not just making stuff up. That coincides with Obama's frosty relationship with the Saudi's. It wasn't severed but far from smooth.
I say, Trump has done more for energy independence that the last ten presidents
Where do you get that from? Can you back that up because what I'm reading says otherwise. If he's pursuing that path where the U.S have energy independence, great, but it's pretty pointless if he's willing to rekindle a relationship with Saudi Arabia and bomb their enemies. It doesn't matter if his agenda is for the Saudi's to take on more refugees. That's just ridiculous reasoning when you think about it.
Where have I tried to blame Uncle Tom for Trump striking a deal with the Saudis on refugees? It's very odd behaviour.
Didn't you claim it's Obama's fault that Trump's been dragged into the whole 'friends and enemies business' as seen below?

One more time. In answer to your original question, the one you are treating like a third rail, Trump's deal with the Saudis relates to refugees. So you ask, why the sudden deal? I say, because of the refugees. You say,.. and another thing about oil!
Nothing I said there about the petrodollar contradicts anything I have subsequently said, it merely reinforces it. Uncle Tom benefitted from high oil prices and improved technology he had nothing to do with. Competition finds a way when the profits are there. If the profits aren't there then production falls off a cliff. Particularly in Canada where almost all the reserves are heavy crude. The inverse relationship between the dollar and energy independence, yes, what of it? Which bit are you disputing? And coal, we didn't talk about that but it's the exact opposite of Uncle Tom's investment in imaginary energy sources.

I suspect the attacks on Yeman, Syria along with the threats to Iran have the Saudi's backing and if most of the warmongering is fueled by the Saudi's either producing extremists or putting the battery in America's back to attack the enemies of Saudi Arabia, Agent Orange's attempt to persuade the Saudi's to bring in more refugees is ridiculous since their creating the problem, no?

Incredible stuff from the "left wing" Guardian. They support the act but not the actor. Okay, the latter is personal choice for the unbiased and factual Guardian. But the former? You support a unilateral air strike on a sovereign nation in the absence of a shred of proof that nation has committed acts of aggression or violations of international law? Before the investigation has even started? And in light of the last "chemical attack" having been thoroughly disproved and dumped instead at the door of the Saudis and their peace loving "rebel" friends in Syria?
Even more astounding, if we follow along with the literally insane left wing story line - why would Putin have ordered Trump to do this? Makes no sense at all. Or are we going to quietly back away from the Russian conspiracy now and pretend it never happened?
Trump's a fool to have played into the hands of the warmongers and their mates at places like the Guardian. He may have been thwarted at every turn by the globalists and their pets in Washington and the media, but he was thwarted trying to do what he pledged to do. This though, is precisely the opposite of what he pledged. Raving psychopaths like McCain and Clinton are jumping for joy. Bombs, dead people, arses wiped with the law and a giant leap down the road to conflict? Plus Trump reverses a key pledge? It's Christmas, or Satanmas, or whatever they celebrate.

Of course it's ridiculous. That's how politics works. You make a deal with each devil, get what you can and try to survive the constant backstabbing. What do you imagine politics to be? Good guys and bad guys? Bush flew the bin Laden fuckers right out of the country hours after the 911 attacks. Uncle Tom blocked the victims from pointing the finger at the perps in a court. Now Trump makes nice so their problem children don't end up in his backyard and so the American banks, which the Saudis own, don't go bust. Politics. What do you expect?
This is a president surrounded by enemies, particularly in the security services. People should be in jail following the Yemen incident because that was pure sabotage. Not that Trump should have been attacking Yemen at all. The suspicion then was his tenuous grip on power. That is all but confirmed by the Syria strike. He's president in name and his enemies, primarily in his own administration, but more importantly in his own party are making it impossible for him to move an inch. He can't get anything done domestically, yet he can whistle up an airstrike within the hour. That's very telling. Else he's gone full rogue and the military is with him. Which is a joke, but I wouldn't even be surprised to see that in some "authoritative" publication tomorrow.
Yes we know the Saudis are terrorist scumbags. 911 kind of gave that game away. And the rampage of their ISIS "rebels". Their funding of radical Islam across Europe. Etc, etc. But that doesn't dispel the realities of geopolitics, geography or geology. Nor economics.

He can't get anything done domestically, yet he can whistle up an airstrike within the hour. That's very telling. Else he's gone full rogue and the military is with him. Which is a joke, but I wouldn't even be surprised to see that in some "authoritative" publication tomorrow.
Yes we know the Saudis are terrorist scumbags. 911 kind of gave that game away. And the rampage of their ISIS "rebels". Their funding of radical Islam across Europe. Etc, etc. But that doesn't dispel the realities of geopolitics, geography or geology. Nor economics.
I'm not surprised. It's politics after all and most politicians can't be trusted, but throughout our conversation about politics over the past 9 months or so, I'm more so surprised by your reaction to Agent Orange.

To my mind the attack on Syria was pure political theatre. The target audience were the Chinese sitting right across from Trump as it happened. They are sending the message to North Korea that Uncle Sam is back and will no longer hold back from dealing with perceived threats. The whole circumstances leading up to the bombing of the Assad airbase sr so coincidental. Less than 24 hours after a gas attack that makes no sense from a military or political perspective for Assad. He was winning already, why jeopardize his position with a foolish attack on his own citizens. It smacks to me of a false flag operation. Without allowing for independent verification of who did it...boom. They launched into action. Why the rush?. Assad will still be there next week next month. No they did it to watch the Chinese squirm in front of them and hopefully the North Koreans too. The pity is that a few hundred innocent Syrians died just to make a point.
Dont forget that 2 weeks ago. It was the US who had bombed civilians without justification Conveniently forgotten now. It was hilarious watching CNN trying to explain that the American were actually targeting a truck bomb that was heading into the neighbourhood. Seriously!. When has anyone ever used a truck bomb on civilian neighbourhoods?. It only works as a tool when you target strategic objectives. So the US was using a bomb to blow up a bomb. Wouldn't that give just a bigger bomb.

I assume the "Agent" bit is a subliminal context for these Russian allegations? Uncle Tom is a very precise summary of Barack Hussein Obama's presidency and general philosophy. A puppet for Wall Street and a modern day master of the status quo. Appearing from nowhere (which had to be the case because of his extremely shady past) and ushered in on the promise of change and the subtext of being the first black president. The goodwill he enjoyed and the possibilities and opportunities he could have seized were almost limitless. He really could have been an "agent" for change. Hence my absolute hatred of him. It's the same hatred I'll apply to Trump should he betray his base so comprehensively.
Agent Orange, or Donald Trump is far more a liberal than Barry Soetoro, in American terms at least. Look back at the track records of both. Trump is right down the middle, Soetoro is a Marxist. Trump is a nationalist, Soetoro a globalist. And that's the whole game. Nationalism (libertarianism-lite), far from perfect but if gives us a platform to push back, versus globalism (an extreme branch of Marxism) that ties us up once and for all so that all future change becomes impossible absent total collapse. The globalists have to be stopped at all costs. So I'm 100% behind Trump and Brexit and Le Pen and that should be pretty easy to understand.

It was 100% without a doubt a false flag operation, and not even a good one. When you have to rely on the White Penises for verification you know it's a lie from top to bottom. Just like all the other false flags that have continued to provoke the situation in Syria (and Iraq beforehand). Any fool knows it was a false flag. Anyone with an ounce of sense could determine it through logic, instantly. But when you have an agenda, then that's a different story. Suddenly the absurd becomes credible.

This isn't about Trump. It's about who is prepared to buy into the globalist bullshit and who sees through it. If the latter outnumbers the former by any significant degree then the whole species is fucked. So there's no room to lighten up. Everyone should be extremely concerned about the state of the mainstream media. I know it has been bad for a long time and we expect that and shrug our shoulders, but this is a whole new level. If they can make this stick then they can conjure up any version of reality they choose, no matter how extreme or ludicrous. Trouble is, I honestly think quite a few people believe it all. A lot of people maybe. Which is where Trump comes in I guess. They hate him so much they have switched their brains off.

A video from a guy you recommended. Not part of the mainstream media, I've been following his monthly talks and agree with a lot of it. 'Trump isn't a sign of progress, it's a sign of decay'. That's a statement I agree with and have argued that point with you before. It's bigger than Trump but again, I'm surprised you're putting so much weight behind his campaign. Watch the video and Wolfe will break it down and his conclusion is pretty much on par with what you often argue for.

I recommend Wolff as one of the few sane voices on the left. I don't agree with where he wants to go at all, not ultimately at least. He's a Marxist and Marxism is a fundamental abuse of human rights at the most basic level - even when the intentions are altruistic. Wolff and I agree on a lot of short term solutions though, practical solutions to the extreme abuse of the modern communist system, which is what we live under. Giant bureaucracies at the centre dictating law, commerce, almost every aspect of life and striving to destroy the atomic family. Classic Stalin in the idea you belong, from birth, to the state and your life's duty is in the sustenance of the state. Made all the more unpalatable by the inevitability of "some pigs being more equal than others". This is what people refuse to accept, despite the evidence. In the west we toil under communist regimes. Look at the scope of government, look at the rates of taxation, look at the iron grip on the education system, the centralised economies controlled by centralised banks. The only difference between the west and the east is the civil liberties we are afforded to change nothing whatsoever except peripheral nonsense such as bathroom usage and who has the right to gain permission from the state to get married. Or can women vote for the same party masquerading as choice. Or do women deserve to be paid the same slave rate in return for their labour. Other than that we are free to consume and make the central planners and owners ever richer. This is our political system, the one the mainstream media is employed to conceal and muddy and deny even as our faces our smacked with the evidence. Globalisation is the next, extreme generation of this hateful system. Total control from an unassailable centre. If we let it unwind then there's no going back unless it's to the stone age.
Nationalism is NOT the long term answer to our problems, far from it. It is a BRAKE on globalism and the ONLY solution that any significant segment of society is prepared to listen to. The vast majority of people don't want to know about, and can't even conceive, a vision of my libertarianism or Wolff's Marxism. So we have what we have.
Trump was the ONLY player in the last election advocating nationalism. Therefore he was the only viable option. Plus there's the added bonus of him not being mentally deranged, as Hilary Clinton plainly is. You need to watch that creature's interview on Libya, watch and have a think about it. Then thank your lucky stars that Trump somehow won in the face of total opposition from the establishment. An opposition he is still facing. The establishment has shown it is prepared to say and do literally anything to avoid any of Trump's policies gaining traction. Because if that happened then the cloak would be lifted, it would become painfully obvious in which direction we should be heading. Not TO nationalism, but at least back that far so we are headed in a direction that might one day see a world fit to live in for the majority of people.
My reasons for backing Trump have nothing to do with him as a person. If all he's done is capture and ride a wave then I'm fine with that, provided that wave is sweeping enough people back to shore. Trump will be gone in time, like the rest of them, except apparently Uncle Tom who hangs around like a bad stench. Where America sits and where Britain and France and the other European nations sit when he's gone is what's important. If we have managed to head even a few steps in the opposite direction to that we were dragged in by the likes of Blair, Cameron and Uncle Tom then it's extremely valuable.

You're now educating me on somebody I have been listening to for years? If YOU had bothered to read, I have made ZERO association between Wolff's idealism and the current communist structures in the west. ZERO. But you have made that hasty conclusion, because it was you that wasn't listening.
I already watched that video, along with probably hundreds of others from Wolff.
Do you have a position beyond a dislike of Trump? Several times I have zoomed out from the minutiae of Trump to the larger scope and the goals of the two main protagonists. You haven't picked up on any of this, you haven't acknowledged it at all. You seem to think the protagonists on both sides are absent idealistic agendas when it's a simple matter to identify them. Surely you can reel off the aims of globalisation without much effort? And yet your focus seems to be what colour tie Trump is wearing. Is it possible to move beyond that with you?
Your aim here seems not to be political discussion but instead baiting to try to uncover inconsistencies in arguments which you can then use to elevate your own argument. Not that your own position is at all clear beyond the Trump bashing. What is it you are trying to say? What is your position? There must be more to your belief system that an anti-Trump focus and if so, leaving Trump aside, what's your ideal and who do you imagine can deliver it for you? I already explained very clearly why Trump is the only solution on offer in my opinion. Are we ready to move beyond the amateur psychology routine and have you state a position so we can argue the merits on either side?

But the point is that even if you can run a business successfully (and Trump's history of that is pretty hit and miss) that doesn't necessarily mean you'd be a good candidate to run a country successfully.
The aim in running a business is to make money, make as much profit as you can for the shareholders (Wenger :bow:)
Running a country is (supposed to be) about providing services to "the people". Being good at one (and it's debatable whether Trump is, he has had a lot of failures in business) doesn't mean you'll be good at doing the other.

At times like this the people need to be informed enough and strong enough to step up. But they aren't, so they won't.

Now all the Muzzas i've met are the same, if they secretly believe i'm going to burn in hell for not keeping good with Allah well they keep it to themselves and I'm ok with that.

Why does everyone immediately bring up colour? What does that have to do with it? Islam is a religion, not a race, not an ethnic grouping.
The facts of the matter are these. European citizens are being outbred at a rate of 5 to 1 by Muslims. The face of Europe is being changed to accommodate this shifting balance. If you are happy that the European cultures will eventually be consumed and then die out, to be replaced by an alien culture that is incompatible, intolerant and uncompromising - fine, you are on course and have nothing to worry about. If you don't want this to happen then you probably need to do something about it, don't you? And if you don't think this is happening then there's no helping you at all. Eyes, ears - no, no, no, it's not happening. Racist! Racist!
Absolutely nothing happening in Sweden, Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, or the ever-so-multicultural and rapidly developing shit holes in our own cities.
By the way, there's also an attack on the very nature of the species itself with male and female status being rigorously undermined by this toxic and deviant transgender movement. Who cares if a bloke or a bird is a bit fucked up? Live and let live. But keep it out of the schools you weirdos. Oh no! Homophobic! Homophobic!
The attack on the atomic family, well that's just about done and dusted. The thin end goes all the way back there, to the marketing driven birth of modern feminism, the movement that subverted women. Feminism is NOT emancipation - just so you know. Uh oh! Misogynistic! Misogynistic!
Any more triggers I can help you with?
Who is measuring your virtue people? Do you log-in to some web site and report your latest signalling activities? Who's winning?
I notice nobody much fired the right hand trigger, mention of the wars that have driven refugees across borders in the first place. Is that because you all voted for the cunts who caused that to happen? Bombs, blood, excuses and flags for the heroes? Tut, tut. You missed that trigger, didn't you? Racism was too great a lure. Who's the racist though? The guy who opposes religion or the trigger happy hoard that always seems to bring it back to race?

...if it's a religion and not a race or ethnic group then how can it breed? If MrsL and myself were to have a child we wouldn't be breeding another Christian, it would be up to them what religion they follow.
I know in certain cultures there is more pressure on the child to follow that religion but in "the west" a lot of children from Islamic backgrounds don't follow their family religion, or not in any serious way.
I know some who don't eat pork for example, they've just been brought up that way, but they still drink and smoke, they don't do their prayers, they certainly don't go around plotting terror attacks, they're not in any serious sense a Muslim although would identify as such if asked.

You are calling Muslims a religion and not a race (which of course you are right about) but then you are referring to them as if they are a homogeneous ethnic group
You have previously claimed that people who are born into the religion become incompatible with western values as if a genetic defect in them.
Most people pay lip service to their religion and only invoke it when it suits them. If they were radicalised to any high percentage we wouldn't require the fear mongering about the war in the streets which crazed people are having a figurative hand shandy about.
I agree when people say there should be not be unlimited immigration and more effort should be paid to integration rather than multiculturalism, and i want the people who call themselves liberal who try and shut down any criticism of islam or muslims as racist to see how they like living in Sharia imposed countries.
But I think the people talking anything other than tongue in cheek as it being a battle for civilisation need to be on Thorazine.

Try reading the rest of the post, there's a good chap. HCZ has also had a go at explaining.
You say Islam is not not a race or an ethnicity but a religion, but then you go on to say that "they" are breeding.
A religion is something people choose to follow (or not), ergo Muslims are not "born" any more than Christians are.
(This is why most non-CofE churches don't Christen babies but Baptize people who are old enough to make their own decision at their request)

Race, religion, nationality, sexual orientation - the response of racism,xenophobia, homophobia, etc I group together. They are all the same in my opinion - an attack by the inadequate on another group to try and make themselves look more important or to go along with other such people like sheep. Something wrong? Blame it on immigrants, women, gays, blacks, whites - anyone will do as long as you can point at them and find someone as hollow as yourself to go along with it. Reinforce it by reading the Daily Excess and Daily Heil who push that agenda, using it to get votes for the Tories and UKIP who use that method. You don't have to be overtly racist/xenophbic - just give the clues - a nod and a wink. See the UKIP leadership wanting to ban the hijab? Why make that your number one thing you talk about. Then saying they will ban muslim schools? How about ALL religious schools so all education is secular. But that would mean you can't play the anti-muslim card masquerading as a 'reasonable' requirement.

The 5 to 1 fact is just a fact. Why people need proof for this one fact in particular seems strange. Why the sudden interest in proof? Is this something you are going to be demanding regularly from now on? Or is it a one-off? Assad kills his own people with chemical weapons. FACT. Muslims outbreed Europeans at a rate of 5 to 1. FACT. That's ALL you need to know.
The fact is actually an anti-fact, opposite but precisely equal to an old fashioned fact. In this case it's a statement often pushed by radical imams in their closed door teaching and strategy sessions. It's based on nothing bar agendas and propaganda, like any other fact/ anti-fact you can see in the partisan, fake news - on both sides. I may repeat this fact many times over the coming weeks, which will transform the fact to truth. I may not, if people buy it without the extra effort.
The outrage at generalisation is nice - but a little selective for my personal taste. If only the sentiment could be applied across the board. Unfortunately not the case, as we saw with the response to the old, ignorant racists and hillbilly gun owners who hijacked the political process recently. We also see it in what the impartial BBC terms the "far right" French who are stirring things up right now. So generalisations are very useful, provided they are used in the approved way and not in some "mental" manner requiring mind altering drugs for correction.
The staunch defence of aliens at home is also fuzzy and warm. If we could extend it to those overseas we'd have progress. But no luck so far. Propaganda is permitted when it applies to our intended victims, scorned when we can't detect the tingling of a virtue trigger. We, the same people so outraged at the horrible little racist, understand there's a difference between social virtue and actual virtue, but in the end both keep us safe so what the fuck? We're not stupid. In fact we're a lot smarter than them - the racists and whatever other word we can apply to their difference of opinion. This June we'll all prove once again how virtue is a coat that can be worn or removed according to the climate. What murdering, thieving, sack of shit will we endorse this time around? Because, you know, you have to. If you don't endorse evil then you have no say.
We have Christians voting Tory and telling people who type mere words on a forum how to measure up. Well we know what the Tory is going to do and we know what the Tory stands for. The very things the fucked up person on the forum has typed out (just words - nobody died), albeit with a different slant. Let's not say Muslim - let's not use a trigger at all. Let's use a taboo. Let's say poor. Or sick. Or weak. Or elderly (not that they don't deserve it for voting Leave). Let's say real people who you identify as friends and neighbours when targeted one way, and pass by on the other side when media tells you the economy is recovering. Get a job! You layabouts.
I guess the golden rule is to switch your brain off. A libertarian who has preached live and let live but leave me alone for, how many years, decides to become a facist overnight. Fine. Seems reasonable. It's what's happening NOW - and history has no value. FACT. Let's just go with that and start our virtue chorus. Because that's what we have been trained to do. And come June we'll switch 'em off again and do our duty. This is how you'll do it. This is how you'll make your mark and show just how virtuous you really are. By delegating to the guy who says what you want to hear or at least says so little he doesn't reveal himself. When the evil is done you can all go back to targeting those who speak openly but say or think the "wrong" things. And what a mighty force for justice you'll be.
ONE person was capable of responding in a way that showed he still has control of his own thoughts. And I agree with him. Wenger, "the worst manager in football", out!

From the rest of your ramble I've no idea if you actually believe the 5:1 thing or whether you're making a point. I think it's the latter but that begs the question what the actual point was. Meh.

The principles of governance and authority are human concepts - not the practice as it stands, and that's the part eluding you. If the principles are adhered to, the few in service of the many, then theoretically (because it has never been tried yet) government might be beneficial for the majority - although never acceptable due to its fundamental conflict with inalienable rights. But we have the opposite in practice. Politicians are hired to ensure this confusion persists. Great words of service and actions in service of the "great". Your inability to envisage anything bar chaos in the absence of government that engineers constant chaos is perplexing. Do you, personally, kill your neighbours when the government isn't watching you? Do you steal from them? No need. Government delegates this murder and theft so you can wash your hands. Convenient and lucrative when you aren't on the sharpest receiving end. All that remains is to fill your spare time calling other people stupid, incapable and inherently irresponsible. Of course civilisation could never have gained a foothold at all if what you assume is true. Real leaders are greeted warmly by all because they carry a greater load for the tribe, usually through their expertise. Fake leaders sign up for government roles, burdens to the society and divisive elements hated by many for the harm and division they cause. The real weakness in humanity is not inherent evil, it's complacency and fear.

But what you are saying is that government has been corrupted by some entity into not serving it's intended purpose by some shadowy cabal who have passed down their malignance generation after generation for thousands of years since the dawn of civilisation trapping and confusing an otherwise well meaning vast majority of people.
What i am saying is that is nonsense, governments and authorities have sprung up all over the world long before many of these nations even travelled far enough to be aware of each other's existence, so if government does deviate from it's intent (which you claim to be a universal thing) that's therefore also a by-product of human nature.
It's not saying humans are evil, I'm saying they we can be capable of great integrity and great benevolence towards each other but equally we are capable of petty place seeking, selfishness, avarice and malevolence.....and how much authority one has determines how amplified these traits are.
Do I think we automatically enter a state of nature if all government and government apparatus vanishes, no not in the sense that i am going to murder my neighbour or they will try to murder me for financial gain no. But there would be a creeping effect in my view that over time without fear of consequence some people would act far more callously towards each other as appalling as it might seem to consider in the here and now over time people become desensitised.
Just like conversely in totalitarian societies people become de-sensitised to the brutality inflicted on them by governments

But what you are saying is that government has been corrupted by some entity into not serving it's intended purpose by some shadowy cabal who have passed down their malignance generation after generation for thousands of years since the dawn of civilisation trapping and confusing an otherwise well meaning vast majority of people.
What i am saying is that is nonsense, governments and authorities have sprung up all over the world long before many of these nations even travelled far enough to be aware of each other's existence, so if government does deviate from it's intent (which you claim to be a universal thing) that's therefore also a by-product of human nature.
It's not saying humans are evil, I'm saying they we can be capable of great integrity and great benevolence towards each other but equally we are capable of petty place seeking, selfishness, avarice and malevolence.....and how much authority one has determines how amplified these traits are.
Do I think we automatically enter a state of nature if all government and government apparatus vanishes, no not in the sense that i am going to murder my neighbour or they will try to murder me for financial gain no. But there would be a creeping effect in my view that over time without fear of consequence some people would act far more callously towards each other as appalling as it might seem to consider in the here and now over time people become desensitised.
Just like conversely in totalitarian societies people become de-sensitised to the brutality inflicted on them by governments
That part is worth the conversation. Highly debatable, in a good way. I believe the opposite. I believe the example of liberty would bring out the very best in the majority, to a degree that the inevitable minority you speak of could be controlled. But it is very difficult to control them when they take on the official role of government.

In fairness both were bought for me, one as a birthday present, one as a work leaving present (along with an arsenal zippo lighter)
But they are pretty good for wearing around the house.

Well, the red polo shirt had to be washed at some point right?

Where's the best area to stay overnight in London that is easy enough to see the main sights, without costing a billion?
Thinking of going down to watch the National League final on Sunday #fairweather so making a day of it on the Saturday, but I haven't been to London in about 18 years... and even then it was Finchley... so I haven't got a clue about where is ideal and where's a pain in the ass to get to, not least for Wembley as well. I'd be getting a train into Euston if I do go.
London's fucking massive :blink:

Don't know what your budget is but most hotels in Central London (zone 1) will be at least £100 for the night, probably more. Wembley itself is a bit of a pain to get to but as you're coming into Euston, I would look around Kings Cross, Camden, Angel or Old Street.
To get to Wembley you'll probably take the overground from Euston anyway and to see the sights you'll have access to the Northern and Victoria lines.
You can look at staying further out in Zone 2 or 3 but it comes down to what you're willing to pay for a hotel and how long you're prepared to travel on the tube for. Wherever you stay though, just remember Wembley is completely out of the way and will require some travelling to get to, unless you obviously stay near the stadium, but then you'll be travelling a fair bit to see the sights.

Probably the best you'll do for central London, and Covent Garden is a good jumping off spot for just about anywhere.
Or you could become an MP and they'll give you a plush flat at the taxpayers' expense - plus free whores.

Or this. Think I stayed there once. Don't get the room with the stain in the middle of the carpet.

And they're not free.
You can just claim it back on expenses.
Also, try AirBnB?

Cheers for the suggestions guys. Not going anyway in the end, but may well book something another time in the week, over a few nights, when it shouldn't be quite as expensive. I'll try to avoid the rooms with the stains.
Tbf the Underground would be something of a novelty as well. Not sure how long it'd take for it to wear off, but still.
