i would say if you want to understand today you have to understand that there is no median, no voice of reason, no moderate view. literally everyone is stark raving mad.

it was a breeze once I developed a flat head.

Who ended up finally convincing you the Earth isn't globular?

Look, backwards Mystic Meg (Gem Citsym?), I was examined on this sort of thing when I was doing A-Level geography. And there is no magic money tree. Choices have to be made.

There is also not a huge vault in HM Treasury labelled "To be spent on saving hungry kids in Africa or wasted in a bungled pandemic response."

@mixed_biscuits come on i genuinely want to know, what is your game here? is there some thought out motivation for winding people up, or is it fun in itself? i've tended to assume the former with you but i want to hear it from the guinea pig's mouth

What's your game here? Wouldn't you be better off pottering around the allotment?

PS you clearly have a problem with 'viewpoint diversity'

[mixed_biscuits]

stop avoiding the question!

It's a weird question

 

[shakahislop]

It's a weird question

is not that weird. what's the answer? why do you say things you clearly don't actually believe on here? is it just coz its fun to wind people up?

 

[mixed_biscuits]

@shakahislop Your omniscience delusion is showing

 

[shakahislop]

i mean fair enough if you don't want to say. i am genuinely interested though

I am more interested in your motivation...why do you want to be a shrink to complete strangers when your omniscience means you can see into their souls already?

it's not that weird, i look at dissensus most days and i've done that for a couple of years, and you've been posting the same kind of thing constantly in that time, and not posting anything but that, so of course i want to know what's going on

What, the covid stuff?

 

[Mr. Tea]

@mixed_biscuits has a PhD in avoiding the question.

 

[shakahislop]

partly the covid stuff, its a big part of what you write, but in general most of what you're posting seems tailored to wind up the other people posting on here, not just in terms of your perspective but in the way that you argue

Says the man who refuses to say whether it's morally better to save 700,000 foreigners than a tiny amount of Brits...
