Amazing. Thank you very much. Just added this as my default search engine in Firefox Focus.

Spot on.

What an absolute load of nonsense. I have spent a decent amount of time in Qatar. I watched what were effectively slaves working away to build stadiums and hotels. It is a fair statement to point out the irony of a place with very strong censorship criticise censorship.

If the BBC lauded a foreign country for the equivalent of bloody Sunday I would point that out too so honestly just jog on.

Edit: just to reiterate, I agreed with the premise up front. It’s not a bad article. That doesn’t take away from a censorship heavy regime criticising censorship through their mouthpiece and I fully acknowledge that AJ is generally decent so no, it’s not racism.

Not at all. I agree with the premise as I said so there was no whataboutism in there. I merely pointed out that a news source from a nation that allows nothing even vaguely approaching what the UK has, to be ironic.

I agree with the premise, but it’s more than a bit of irony that this is coming from Al Jazeera.

I think that’s just idiocy.

Absolutely magnificent. That blast shockwave was spectacular too.

Mmmm. You’re taking “company spokesperson” at face value there.

Let’s be real though, a meeting of highly paid, highly skilled people came up with that response then it was sanitised through three more filters before reaching our eyes.

I have a female friend in STEM who has dealt with an immense amount of misogyny in her field.

That’s really fucking depressing :(

That’s OK. You’re doing the best you can. Try to go easy on yourself.

Welcome.

That is one of the core tenets of fascism though. Simple sound bites for simple people. Repeat until absorbed.

Were you watching it live? Or is it on the internet somewhere?

There were actually drone defence nets over the pipes in the small exposed area, but this was an act of sabotage.

Suchomimous does a decent video on it.

€18 euro clown costume with €2 face paint for one. €3 cat in the hat costume from the school (which does costume recycling for money) for the other. They both looked great.

Yeah very true. It all has to be viewed through the ol’ historic lens.

Fascinating read. Thanks. I wish them luck.

Does anyone know of any examples of politicians swinging hard in the opposite direction?

I just learned today that Hitler was a lefty in his early days. True story.

He was always anti-Semitic though. That wasn’t unusual for the times however.

Someone describing themselves as a tree hugging progressive railing against supporting society’s most vulnerable can go and fuck themselves with a fishing rod though.

I absolutely pissed myself laughing at the family guy Irish heritage museum skit. I am Irish so your mileage may vary.

The bit with the lady giving birth wrecked me. My stomach hurt.

Honestly this is magnificent. 🤡
