And now Starmer has resigned, I wonder if it's the combination of all the recent events that made him step down or if it's just the fact that he was really unpopular even within his own party.
I don't expect his replacement to be much better though, Burnham currently looks like the favorite and I fear he is just going to be a lot more smug.
This is gonna be like their 7th PM in the last 10 years, it really feels like the UK is just rearranging the chairs on the Titanic now.

I was going to comment on that. There was also this case a few days ago.

A man tried to kill a toddler and he got bailed out on the next day.
Also notice that when a crime suspect is white they report the race immediately but when it's a foreigner they never mention the race.
I also saw that the UK government wants to impose a ban on social media to "protect" children (which doesn't include Bluesky and Discord), but they let gangs like these run free for years. Also you do not see any feminists who complain about rape culture talk about this either.
This is a place where thousands of people get arrested for online posts but criminals are often let go without charges.
I have been genuinely wondering, is an anarcho-tyranny like the UK that much better than a honest dictatorship like North Korea and China? In the latter they at least have no pretense about being authoritarian and they can actually deal with crime, thought I might be wrong. As Solzhenitsyn said, authoritarian regimes like the USSR always punished dissidents harder than petty criminals.
I really don't think it's a coincidence that the 2 most famous dystopian novels were made by English writers.

Tell that to Eastern European and Russian gamers who pirate almost everything.
Commented on Murder of Austin Metcalf by Karmelo Anthony
So the trial just ended and he was found guilty, guess the article should be updated now.

I didn't say US media, almost no mainsteam media in Europe wrote about it either and it's only getting attention now half a year later after more details about the case have emerged.
It's honestly hard to say whether the cops in the UK or the US are more corrupt and incompetent.
Also I saw that Karmelo Anthony murder trial started a few days ago, has anyone here been following it? The article is really out of date.

Notice how Ukrainian refugees in Europe who are fleeing from a serious war are mostly women and children with way fewer young adult men. It was amusing to see some liberal women who were welcoming refugees for years suddenly get upset when refugees were young women.
One of the aspects of mass migration that not many people seem to talk about is how it causes gender inbalance in both countries.

So while George Floyd has been turned into the biggest martyr of the generation the mainstream media has been almost completely silent about the murder of Henry Nowak by a Sihk migrant.
A footage of him getting arrested while bleeding has just been released and from what I heard I really don't think I want to watch it.

Also I don't like either Cenk Uygur or Hasan but I wonder what they did to get banned from entering the UK.

This and Joker 2 show that Hollywood writers are spiteful people who hate their own audiences and are willing to destroy anything so the "wrong" kind of people can't enjoy it.
At least I got to give credit to Antony Star, his performance was still great despite the shitty script.

Commented on Red Button or Blue Button Question
This definitely feels like a psyop, it's just a simplified prisoner's dilemma with specifically-chosen colors designed to make the blue people feel self-righteous (MY button SAVES people…) and the red people feel smarter (MY risk assessment is better…).

So it looks like SPLC was found funding extremist groups like the KKK and american nazi party to justify their own existence.

That would actually require things getting better for ordinary people which I simply do not see happening without a drastic societal change or a very painful transition. Basically everyone except the richest technocrats and politicians is objectively worse off now than 5 years ago. And as I said before I don't see any serious change happening until most boomers die as they will not willingly give up their power and will hold into it until their death.
The combination of Covid years, decline of general trust in people and institutions, rising cost of living, multiple large scale wars and Trump's embarrassing second term has pretty much completely killed many people's optimism and hope for the future. And I don't see anything that could possibly bring it back.
In the past people had religion that gave them hope but now that it has declined there doesn't seem to be any real alternative.
What's your problem with Spengler and Jung?
Also regarding your previous post I don't know where the hell you got the idea that there is somehow less ideological infighting on the right, I even saw a research showing there is more diversity of thought on the right than the left. Right wingers fight each other all the time which is why they can't get anything done while the left stays fairly united despite their constant purity testing. Right now there is a lot of conflict between the Zionist/Ben Shapiro types and third worldist/Tucker Carlson types.

Right-wingers are starting to realise that they are not gonna vote their way out of the current situation.
Pretty much every person and party they have supported has turned out to be controlled opposition. Look at Nigel Farage who is backing out of his promises before even getting elected. I don't know how anyone still trusts that opportunist who always ended up backstabbing his people.
