What the fuck is wrong with people? Why does everyone overreact to everything? And don't say COVID because this was happening before that. Yes, this is a stupid prank and don't do it, but kids do stupid things. They don't deserve to be killed for it. www.cnn.com/2025/09/03/u...

The load-bearing myth at the heart of UK politics is that the politicians and media are tolerant and decent and working people are knuckle-dragging bigots, but it's actually completely the other way around.

It’s stupidly absurd watching people scream “How can Trump embrace Putin like that don’t you know the ICC calls him a war criminal?” And then turn around and embrace Netanyahu, who the ICC calls a war criminal.😐 Those of us committed to actual justice reject both war criminals—as justice mandates.
