@RedrichLFC @JennoRon I know lots about Starmer. I’ve seen him in action. He’s an unprincipled cororieare jack, JM has two choices: support the leader or quit the party. I am do not face that dilemma I’m not in the party.

@RedrichLFC @JennoRon Why? So that in four years we might have a Tory-light government, possibly? No.

@Aoeui3 @davidwengrow well, how do you know from archaeological evidence when a choice is intentional? You can only work by analogy. Still, there’s lots of historical records of intentional social change of every sort going back as far as we have evidence.

@Aoeui3 @davidwengrow we call it “stuck” but it’s the same idea. The end of seasonal variation might be one key threshold.

@NylAndrew you didn’t even read the tweet, let alone look at the article, did you? That’s the amazing thing for me. People have it so drilled into their heads even if you wave direct evidence to the contrary in front of their face, they just don’t see it

@dominichills5 @stephenberquist @davidwengrow @fake__monkey Nah you’ve got it as well as anyone

@davidwengrow @fake__monkey it might take what seems like a thesis-antithesis, even thesis-antithesis-synthesis form at times, as people define themselves against their neighbours, but dialectic has come to imply something inexorable.

Fed finally admits they have been printing money to create greater inflation and failing. Does this mean everyone will stop demanding “but where will you find the money?” whenever someone mentions a social program? Why do I doubt this? https://t.co/OUVJRx0Olo

@Katsuefox @Prolapsarian it’s terrifying. The Dem leadership were utterly determined to repeat Clinton v Trump 2016, except with a folksier front man. Even after the most disastrous presidency since James Buchanan they can’t seem to get traction

@girlziplocked not about politics or major social issues. But a kind of cynical contempt for the foibles of the not-cool-enough & their interests and concerns seems to impress a lot of under-19s on a regular basis.

@StephenWayneDa4 @robert0461 @MikeSmith04 @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer Corbyn had personal negatives since the media hammered away at him in a way they never did with any other leader before or since, but Labour was usually ahead in the polls anyway, because he had actual policies (which was the reason the media hammered so at him).
