  1. You think that the chairman of a major oil company dismissing action on climate change means something?
  2. Do you think that has any relevance to the parties today?
  3. Ah, I see the confusion - you meant to say “Do you mean Ibram X Kendi?” But autocorrect changed it to “critical race theory”. Happens to all of us.
  4. That figures, with these faux pious narcissists. Jeffrey Clark and Scott Perry’s texts are hilarious. Clark hatched a plan to take advantage of the election lies to get himself appointed to one of the most powerful positions in the Executive branch - and in return corruptly and criminally abuse that power to enable a coup to overturn a legitimate election - and they told themselves it was simply God’s plan happening to them. How arrogant can you get?
  5. Out of only 18 partial and full missions Apollo 1 killed its crew on the launch pad, and Apollo 13 came within a whisker of leaving its crew dead in space or burned up in the atmosphere. The Space Shuttle, despite being an even more complicated vehicle and a programme that was seriously mismanaged in a number of ways, lost 2 crews in 135 missions. Nasa got to the moon in the 1960s because it was taking risks that wouldn't even be considered, let alone accepted, in the 1980s or today.
  6. Yeah, but he spelled ‘billion’ b i l o i o n so it’s all one big gaffe and he has no idea what he’s talking about.
  7. I'm sure Brent will be along in a moment to assure us that this was in fact the intended result of another Musk masterstroke.
  8. Lol, they're arguing that believing there was fraud is the same as entering into a criminal conspiracy taking active steps to overthrow the government? Then they're actually, unintentionally, arguing that everyone who ever dreamed of robbing a bank is in fact a bank robber who should be prosecuted?
  9. But all Disney movies are woke because there was a drag show at Disneyland once? That doesn't fit any of your criteria. But woke doesn't have anything to do with civil rights? White privilege and critical race theory don't have anything to do with civil rights? Hmmmm.... By the mid-20th century, woke had come to mean 'well-informed' or 'aware',[13] especially in a political or cultural sense.[8] The Oxford English Dictionary traces the earliest such usage to a 1962 New York Times Magazine article titled "If You're Woke You Dig It" by African-American novelist William Melvin Kelley, describing the appropriation of black slang by white beatniks.[8] Woke had gained more political connotations by 1971 when the play Garvey Lives! by Barry Beckham included the line: "I been sleeping all my life. And now that Mr. Garvey done woke me up, I'm gon' stay woke. And I'm gon help him wake up other black folk." Your boast about being right so much was quite the bit of radical self delusion, wasn't it?
  10. Damn the Anti Defamation League for making him say that!

    Ukraine

    Biological research labs in general are not illegal, not nefarious, and don't justify a country being invaded to destroy them (never mind that it wasn't even a justification for the invasion until months and months later). So why are you falling for the same old lies? Why is it so easy for the war mongers to keep fooling you?

    Ukraine

    You only want peace to be sought on Russia's terms, as a reward for their invasion and mass murder. In the mean time, you're the only person who seems to enjoy what's happening. You're certainly the only person who thinks it's funny. And yet you haven't learned. Instead you're applauding an invasion over non-existent illegal bio-labs.
  13. Funny how that article contains no evidence of that. And why should it, since you're now saying none of their films are woke in the first place?
  14. Have we found something he’s actually good at?

    Ukraine

    The truth that everyone except you already knew? Anyway, your post was quite clear - you support Russia's invasion of Ukraine, you're happy that (you think) they've achieved the goals of their bloody and brutal war, and you think what has happened there is hilarious. I can;t think of much that's more evil than that.
  16. So your answer to my question is that none of Disneys films are woke? Not a single one? Oddly, I remember in the ‘80s and ‘90s drag acts like Dame Edna were regularly part of mainstream entertainment and no-one cared or thought the sky was falling.

    Ukraine

    That has been the case since day one of the Russian invasion in 2014. This is yet another of those times you’re making a big song and dance about discovering something everyone else already knew. It just shows how uninformed you are. What NATO will do is admit Ukraine as soon as the current conflict is over. So not only do you support Russia’s war in Ukraine, you think it’s funny? That’s evil.
  18. What was the last Disney film that had Ze, Zim and a drag queen story hour in it? I guess they're not woke after all.
  19. What does that mean, exactly? When he gaffes or falls over he's usually up on stage, live, on his own - how are his staff curating any of that?

    Ukraine

    Russia pulled back after their invasion convoy was stopped and they failed to take Kyiv. They never intended to give up that ground and have their atrocious war crimes and mass civilian graves in Bucha and other towns exposed. The bio lab thing is pure fiction. I don’t think even the Kremlin claims that’s what happened.

    Ukraine

    Well that's obviously untrue. The blue shaded area below is territory taken by Russia during the 2022 invasion and regained by Ukraine. You don't have to be particularly good at maths to see that it is more than a quarter of a percent.
