though this were in some way an admirable thing, as opposed to the indictment of the absurd welfare system that it actually is.

I'm confused.

stay as inefficient and full of thieving as they were without any pesky interference from the people whose stuff they were routinely stealing.

That must be why London's docks are now such thriving hubs of industriousness...oh.

Had he been a member of the National Front, you'd probably think twice about admitting to it.

What a strange and dangerous culture we have built up.

[Classic Jorge]

As far as I'm aware the CPGB are responsible for no atrocities, nary even an outrage.

[redgunamo]

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

dangerous, wouldn't you say?

[Classic Jorge]

Splitters!

[Berni]

And that's not counting all the torture, the beatings, the rapes, the sodomisations with cattle prods - all grist to the mill of crushing any semblance of human spirit in the way all totalitarian regimes must in order to survive.

Still, I'm sure your gramps was a lovely old chap who dandled you on his knee and told you tales of the streets running red with the blood of capitalist running dogs.

Don't be so naive, j.

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

They're only just starting to grow those docks there now. No thanks to the unions.

did you miss the last 15 years or something? Let alone the last 60. Spare me the holier-than-thou stuff.

The funny thing about my grandad is that we didnt even meet each other until the late 90s.

I'm sorry. Epic bantz, and all that. But really.

hand-wringing in our free media and tedious inquiries and such.

Your argument would seem to suggest that only someone whose hands are spotless can point out that someone else's are dripping with blood. That position is absurd.

[redgunamo]

[Classic Jorge]

My position is quite clear, to pretend we're superior serves only to perpetuate the delusion that allows us to continue without conscience.

Not like he personally gained anything like, say, the british in ireland did.

[Berni]

So, whether he gained or not, he took their money.

And what did the British gain from Ireland exactly? Seems to have always run at a loss to me. They'd love to get the hell out of there and hand it back, but they're fundamentally too decent.

It's their greatest weakness and their greatest strength.
