A Political Thread pt. 2

[dirty harry]

Its boring because esbtabliment rails against modern music is a tale as old as time. Why the establishment ever see the point of starting a fight seams odd.

Eminem is considered a treasure these days.

I am fascinated by the Kneecap situation, IMO they are acting out, anything for attention, and these actions are basically the equivalent of a sex tape...

The establishment will never win this battle though, it can only hurt Starmer! Unless he's smart enough to use their stance against them.

The only time I've seen the masses turn against bands and cult figures, is when their actions are contrary to their beliefs...

Kneecap can only go one of 2 ways, they can fade out of the limelight as peolle abandon their edgy cause, or they will hit it big, and become Capitalist sell outs, either way there's no threat lol

I'd be interested in the wording of the Nato treaty. Do members have to help defend from any attack regardless of the circumstances? It would be very strange for what is primarily a defensive treaty for a country to be able to attack someone and then get Nato support if they get attacked back. Very easy to abuse it.

 

[ChicagoKid]

Pretty clear the last several weeks/months have been a diversion to lure Iran into a false sense of security.

Whatever Mossad knew was accurate as they penetrated the highest levels of the IRG.

Sun Tzu would be proud.

Who cares about what Nato thinks. We fund 70%+ percent of the annual budget.

It’s the equivalent of your dead beat son living in your basement questioning your life choices.

Idd agree, and i would add, as I said above, the TACO names would have hurt his ego this would be a big thumbs up to those people, he's always politicking.

Everyone knows Trump prefers versus straight up

Coming from the only nation in history to invoke article 5

Did you read the reporting from the WSJ this morning?

It's not on substack or the ft so I'm not interested

Presumably the parents of all the service men and women who died in the desert because America invoked article 5 in 2001

To you this is all just a game on a computer screen but it's actually quite a serious situation

Ah yes the world fighting power that is Iran.

It's a step down from people in black pyjamas and straw hats I'll give you that.

I’m sorry your Labour leaders were our little lap dogs.

For such a well-educated society, you have picked some real winners the last 20 years.

Iran are closing the Strait of Hormuz, everyone get to the petrol station asap, prices about to go crazy

You could circumvent the swear filter by following Alan's lead - pretty sure all the names he used would work in Chicago's case.
