Aphantasia?

I think there's more than one kind of imagination. It's like the opposite of 'thinking outside the box'.

Theirs is more like 'wow this box is big! I'm gonna get inside a smaller one'.

I've had some good conversations with local TUSC members collecting signatures and so on, I've a lot of respect for them but sadly the general public don't seem to. I think after the kicking by thatcher, unions and socialism in general are out of fashion. I do think there should be a broadly left party, allowing secondary membership maybe. Work on getting agreement on some issues, laser focus on what's most urgent and get decent people elected. I'd support any party with decent policies and which had the most chance of getting elected.

I'm tall and a woman. It makes me happy and feel kinda powerful that I could cause this situation and maybe even have since I've dated shorter guys and am oblivious to social stuff.

Do they need him to be alive? They can use him as long as he's not rotting too obviously. I have a strong suspicion he already stinks.

Trump will give them space in Guantanamo bay

Those voters had already been brainwashed by fascists into thinking destitute refugees and asylum seekers were at the root of their problems instead of offshore bank accounts stuffed with their taxes, which should have been used to pay for public services and housing.

Its not only that but how the left has been marginalised, as what happened with the labour party in the UK - Jeremy corbyn, the old leader who was actually left wing has been barred from the party, which he was part of for his whole life. A lifelong anti-racist on the correct side of every issue has been smeared as being a racist and that is now the mainstream 'truth'.

The only left wing party of any size in the UK now is the green party. The only alternatives to business as usual labour/conservatives (same thing) are the greens (seen mostly as a middle class protest vote) or reform.

Labour are definitely not for the working class anymore.

Most people have an astounding lack of imagination. Its like they thing that things can't get much worse because that would be too different to now....

It's true, it was programmed into us by our creator Hans Asperger.

I'm really struggling with the idea that humanity doesn't deserve to survive. Its just mind blowing how stupid and disgusting people can be.

I know... I love food and have a huge thing for not wasting food too

Why would Putin be interested in a real deal when he already is defacto president of the US?

Only if Europe can stand against trump and Russia (and allies) will he not get what he's bought and paid for. Zelensky knows and I hope he keeps shouting the truth from the rooftops.
