Christ, that was hard work. He appears to be wearing a bin bag. I gave up when he started on "The facts" and then just stated someone else's opinion that he was reading from a piece of paper. I then even went to Mint Press, the Data Analysis was a graph of Hawkish and Doveish opinions in a said journals, they provided a graph as "evidence." Here's a snippet of what they consider hawkish opinions Quote Columnist Max Boot claimed that Putin “definitely wants to resurrect the Soviet empire.” Boot’s colleague at the Post, Henry Olsen, launched a bitter attack on Biden "for not being hawkish enough", describing the president as a weakling who is unfit to lead. Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal took the opportunity to denounce the American left for focusing on non-existent U.S. imperialism when it should be uniting with Washington to combat imperialism in the only places it exists any more: Russia and China. Then I read on and realised I was reading similar crap to a Stop The War Coalition press release There was no "data analysis" just extremely skewed opinions to fit their narrative I'm back to avoiding the dogshit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, they do this very well. Shooting at civilians, non military targets. Bums the lot of them. If they're is one element of the Russian forces that needs cleansing it's Kadyrov's troops. He's the chavviest leader in history and as such has no moral values that belong in normal society. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who'd have thunk it the small print is interesting ... it may be 15bn extra now , but the commitment is and "additional " 50 bcm annually guaranteed until 2030 (in your face Qatar and Australia) .. but that increasing supply also requires info-structure and terminals to be built so its a big investment in a source we are supposed to be trying to wean countries away from 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems that he and Macron are holding NATO back from providing more to Ukraine, while UK and Poland are at the other end of that scale - with a few (especially Germany) gratefully hiding behind Washington and Paris.

Unfortunately it seems to be working. Grifters gonna grift. I watched the whole thing (RIP my YouTube algorithm). It's all deeply stupid stuff, but I'm not sure that it's working all that well given that most of the video seemed to be an advert for his UK tour. A tour taking in such well-known hotspots as Stockton-on-Tees and Carlisle. Those ain't the venues booked by a performer on his way up in the world.

Christ, that was hard work. I was a big fan of Brand for a little while, from about 2008 until maybe 2011. I then was again not long after he became a Dad and his stand-up routine was about that. It was all very relatable. Sadly, I couldn't watch more than a few seconds of that video either. It's too full on. 1 hour ago, KentVillan said: Suspect it's even worse - disappeared down a rabbit hole of spiritualism and conspiracism in order to escape his addictions, and genuinely believes all this crap. This is the crux of it. It's more than likely another addiction, to be honest. He's got genuine issues, by his own admission, and spirituality helped him move away from the destructive vices like booze, sex and heroin. I suspect he's no addicted to enlightening the world or some such endeavour he can throw himself into. He's actually a talented guy with a good heart, but all the other stuff completely dominates the good bits. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
