If you need me try matrix @awoofle:matrix.org but be patient as I don’t check it daily.
I’ve never quite been able to get a read on Sarkar or Novara Media in general.
Novara are trots. Sarkar possibly isn’t but doesn’t strike me as having read much theory. Pretty sure that she’s soaked up what she does know from the people she’s been around her whole life, a socially produced communist that was likely surrounded by trots.
Corbyn, John Mcdonnell and Dianne Abbott have better positions than her, and come across as genuinely well read communists. Corbyn and Dianne feel like MLs doing pragmatic electoralism. Dianne in particular defended Mao on national television. John has literally called for violent insurrection and property destruction at rallies I’ve been at. All of them are significantly better than Ash and we’d be so much worse off without them.
Uhh no Corbyn absolutely doesn’t share that sentiment lmao.
I believe the rumours. We heard about certain discussions before the news even started mentioning it. There were definitely enquiries and conversations going on behind closed doors.
If we split the labour vote and win constituencies forcing Labour to make a coalition to form a government we can actually force them left. There’s no reason not to do it, same strategy that UKIP used against the conservative party to force them further right.
I also recognize that he use the strongest words he could for the given situation
No? Unless you think that it’s impossible to be an american politician without sucking Israel’s dick. In which case I hope you recognise that it’s not a democracy, and that because you recognise that you’re also advocating for revolution and not advocating for voting democrats. I doubt all of that though. You’re a lib that will support them even as their bombs drop on children.
Labour looks like it will win the next election by a landslide, and whatever Corbyn says will have little impact on that.
Until he announces a new party.
Ash Sarkar can be pretty lib on certain elements surrounding the ussr but she’s quick on her feet. Good interview.
I worked at the server company that previously hosted discord servers (no longer exists) and let me tell you right now that all your conversations were accessible on the server to anyone in the company and completely and totally insecure. Overall security was pretty meh and it wouldn’t be very difficult for anyone who really wanted the information to gain access to anything on your server.
It is not a valid place to store or discuss anything that requires operational security. It is also not a place where customer data should be stored or discussed, in fact you’re also probably breaking gdpr by accident if you ever do so.
acting in a way that directly leads to people being hurt, maimed and / or traumatized
If that’s your benchmark then 90% of people should be considered criminal.
Out of interest do you support Israel and/or the continuation of the war in Ukraine or do you support ceasefires?
Yeah you get what I mean about her being THE child killer here lol.
Even the average person would’ve fucking killed her given the chance. This is Breivik. He’s a monster and someone absolutely would try and have him given the chance.
Being a child killer among other people that have committed murders but still have some principles is usually not good. Not to mention being like THE child killer in Norway not just any child killer.
I’m British, THE child killer here would’ve been Myra Hindley, would I have killed her in prison? Yes. Yes I would. I’m pretty sure there’s some fairly rough guys in there that would not take kindly to a person that slaughtered 69 kids one by one by one at a fucking summer camp.
So many good future socialists died that day. I completely guarantee someone kills the fucker if he is mixed in with everyone.
Not really sure why you think Norwegians are ontologically predisposed to not want to kill child mass murderers tbh.
I was ruder than I should’ve been, I thought you were the other person who has irritated me a bit.
I guarantee you without change far reaching enough to societally gain a new understanding of public space and roads
This is the weird fantasy part I was referring to. It’s like, just nonsense. It comes off like an american attitude being ported to the UK with absolutely no adaptation whatsoever to British conditions. Our conditions are nothing like america. Getting rid of cameras and getting traffic calming measures installed instead is not particularly difficult, it’s about the same. This idea of complete and widespread reinterpretation of public space? It doesn’t make sense here.
The particular road from the OP is a main road through rural space between major locations. By American standards it would be considered idyllic.
Parts of the road already have traffic calming measures.
This is very easily expanded upon with the addition of chicanes, which are in wide use (hundreds of thousands) across the country.

There’s no “reimagining” needed here. People don’t need to develop a new consciousness of public space. We do not live in a country that is utterly obsessed with cars like america. And we aren’t opposed to limiting them. There are zero political barriers to this, the only barrier is the profit/revenue barrier of the traffic camera obsessed crowd. I must stress, I am not just cherrypicking out rare projects that look good. This shit is bog standard, everywhere in the country already. In every town, in every village, in every city. Outisde every school. In every residential area. All over the country.
It is categorically not the same environment here and we do not share the same political barriers or problems.
Meanwhile, in the real world we must be concerned with actually viable change.
when the last speed cam is dismantled you’ll find all the roads still suck ass and will not be redesigned
This is just factually not true, evidenced by the abundance of traffic calming measures that exists, and those that have replaced cameras.
You are inventing a fantasy reality to suit an anti car obsession. One I share, car reduction is good. However you’re being a tit now.
you have not listened to a word i’ve said lmao
Ay that’s a surprise at least.
You’re not being realistic though. Will continue congratulating the gang for cutting these down, fairly sure some of the ycl lads have done a few, dunno about these specific ones though.
You physically can’t speed with traffic calming, they will just crash and fuck up their vehicles.
This conversation is silly. Right from the start if you were committed to this fuck the poor nonsense you should have just been honest and admitted it so neither of our times would have been wasted on this ridiculous farce.
Not really that surprised, typical liberal bullshit. Gonna vote Starmer too yeah?
Ok so what do you expect to happen when you rock up to the council and say “Hi, I want to replace this speed camera making tens of thousands in profit per year with this other solution that makes no money at all” ?
Please tell me what you think the pathway to the alternative better solution is.
My point here is that for every one it fucks over, it helps other people not being fucked over, because it does do something against speeding. My line of reasoning for speed cams is not that it fucks people over, it’s that it helps people. You wanna focus on the first part, I’m trying to get you to see the issue is more complex than that, at least if you include people outside of cars in your consideration.
Well my line of reasoning is that there is an alternative that fucks no poor people over, and that taking action to achieve that end us a good thing. A negative in the short term leads to a longterm positive.
Also I see no other method of doing this. If you go to the council and say “I want to replace this highly profitable traffic camera making hundreds of thousands per year with a traffic island that will make no money at all” the decision that any team will make internally is obvious. That issue inevitably leads to destruction of these cameras as the only method of causing the alternative to occur.
Ok so you finally agree that some poor people suffer because of this and that there is an alternative that exists where no poor people suffer at all?
Doing the alternative is good and taking action that leads to the alternative is good.
If you say utterly stupid ass things like poor people don’t own cars I will absolutely assume you don’t interact with the people struggling to survive in this country in any capacity. It’s a bloody stupid thing to say mate.
I mean what I said, go and volunteer and see for yourself.
Having been to court twice for online related stuff I will absolutely couch this shit.
I do not see how that question is doing anything but attempting some sort of gotcha or accusation that these people deserve to be fucked over instead of have real designs that don’t result in their lives being made harder. It seems like spite to me.
