  • Indigenous population scared about their wellbeing? Wellbeing from what? What possible threat has the indigenous population faced recently that you need to be all up in arms about it?

    This is a report on Gov.uk

    In 2022/23, white individuals accounted for 78% of arrests, 8% were of black individuals, 8% were of Asian individuals, 4% were of mixed ethnicity individuals and 2% were of other ethnicity individuals

    In 2022, 77% of all males prosecuted for indictable offences were from the white ethnic group, compared to 86% of all females prosecuted

    Since 2018, white defendants have had a consistently lower average custodial sentence length (ASCL) than all other ethnic groups combined for indictable offences.

    Black prisoners served the greatest proportion of their original sentence in custody.

    What is your point? What are you up in arms about exactly?


  • Ok, let’s compare, shall we?

    Millions of people out protesting over the murder of thousands of children in Gaza, and protesting the UK’s complicity in those crimes by directly sending weapons to Israel. No crimes committed, no riots, no disorder. There were a couple who held up flags and inflammatory symbols or shouted crude slogans and they went peacefully when they were arrested.

    Thousands of children murdered, peaceful protest.

    In contrast, a far-right counter protest against the Palestine march in London ends with the thugs clashing with police, being violent and causing damage https://www.politico.eu/article/uk-far-right-football-hooligans-blamed-violence-pro-palestinian-march-london/

    Recently, 3 girls brutally and abhorrently murdered in Southport, but EDL thugs who honestly couldn’t care less about the victims and just wanted a scrap, took to the streets and torched police vehicles, injured many offers. The perpetrator ended up being a Christian, and yet the EDL mob went and targeted a mosque.

    3 children murdered, outright anarchy.

    EDL have proven that they’re just in it for the fight. They just want blood and they don’t care what the trigger is. Absolutely pathetic. They piss about in school, get bugger all in the way of grades and end up at the building site, blaming immigrants for their troubles. Spineless knobgobblers, the lot of them.


  • Halo Infinite - failed
    Starfield - failed
    Forza Motorsport - terrible launch
    Redfall - failed

    Out of curiosity, I googled exclusives for Xbox series exclusives. They’ve got things like Forza Horizon 5, sunset overdrive and Ori. Like, sure, but you can’t say proudly that your console is being held aloft by 4+ year old titles when the competition is releasing banger after banger!

    They just missed the mark. You can spend billions on R&D and marketing for a new console, billions on buying up game studios to make new games, but if your games suck on launch, people won’t play on your console.

    What XBox has done this generation is borderline suicide.







  • Look, I am just as anti-Trump as the rest of the sane voters but your arguments don’t do you or the Dems any favours whatsoever.

    Biden is the one responsible for thousands of deaths in Gaza. He said he’s a self proclaimed Zionist, effectively saying that he supports the Israeli war on a personal level.

    OP was right. Biden has been allowing this to go on and without US’ support, this would have ended long ago. And not only denying that what’s going on in Gaza isn’t a genocide, but flat out rejecting that there’s no famine, even when you’re able to count the ribs of children is pathetic.

    So what was the solution? Biden should’ve said he won’t run for another term. It’s too late for that now and Dems may pay the price.

    Biden really is going senile and he really isn’t fit to lead another 4 years. Yes, you absolutely can’t have Trump return, unless you want the US to become an autocratic dictatorship and spark a civil war, but letting Biden run with this much baggage is suicide. I’d be happy if Dems win, but let’s wake up and stop kidding ourselves. We should not be surprised if Trump wins. The Dems have never been this fragmented and we needed everyone to come together last time to beat Trump (and even then it wasn’t a landslide!)

    If your best argument for Biden is that we can’t have Trump, then you’re just ignoring everyone else’s concerns about a guy who has presided over, and actively and consciously encouraged a genocide. It’s not enough this time to simply avoid Trump.





  • To all those people who keep saying that in order to not have Trump back in 2025, everyone must suck it up and vote Biden, this is why that just can’t happen.

    Sure Trump is bad in many ways but Biden’s insistence on helping Netenyahu no matter what will lose him the election.

    I’m not making a case for Trump, btw. Both things can be bad at the same time. For people who are seeing Gazans die for no reason, Biden cannot come back into office again. Does that mean we want Trump? Of course not, and that’s why voting for anyone else makes sense.

    If voting for anyone else means you’re voting for Trump, so be it!


  • On September 11, some Saudis attacked the World Trade Centre. America retaliated by going to war with Afghanistan, found they had nothing of value, and then Rumsfeld said since Iraq has oil, they should go after them instead. The unprovoked attack and illegal war that still, to this day, has had zero repurcussions against Bush, Blair and the rest who started it, and caused individuals from militant faction groups to rise up and attack those nations in the form of terrorist attacks, perpetuating a cycle of hate and loss.

    More than twenty years later, uneducated people still fail to see the distinction between individual terrorists and an entire people who follow Islam. Islamophobia is on the rise right now simply because people are protesting the war in Gaza, and still equating those protesters to the terrorism from years prior.

    I say all this because I can see how hate, and in your case, antisemitism lingers. Your actions are not that of the IDF, your words are not the same as aggrevators like Ben Gvir and your policies are not the same as Netenyahu’s, but because you’re Jewish, those things are all the same now in the eyes of many uneducated people.

    It was the same with idiots attacking random (elderly!?) Chinese civilians on the street as a result of COVID lockdowns. The blame lies chiefly with the media and its incendiary bias towards all things that don’t align with their backward views, and allowing people like Trump to stand on a podium and address millions of people with lies and baseless claims.




  • If you’re implying Trump should lead America again, you’re literally insane. Anyone who believes that man should be let near a position of power - let alone the highest office in the US - is either ignorant or has vested interest in the decision.

    If you’re convinced that what’s happening in Palestine is par for the course, and that Israel’s actions are justified, and that the people protesting around the globe for Palestine are being over dramatic, you’re ignorant, blind and truly deluded, or, again, you’ve some personal bias towards Israel which fails to allow you to accept reality.

    If you don’t agree with both of the above statements, then you cannot disagree with my comment. I said Trump cannot win because he isn’t fit for office. I also implied that Biden is tarnished by the Israel conflict to be seen in a positive light by his voters. If the Dems want the win, they can’t possibly go into an election with a president who is actively leaning into his “Genocide Joe” moniker. They need another candidate.


  • With protests as rife as they are across the world, and sentiment against Netenyahu at its lowest as he begins murdering innocent people in Rafah (and crossing Biden’s own red line as well as many nations red lines in the process), the last thing Biden, already dubbed genocide Joe, had to do was throw his full weight behind Israel and drag the US down with him.

    We all know that Trump will be disastrous for the US, and a self-proclaimed dictator with followers who literally worship him as the Messiah will turn the US into a nation akin to what we’ve been deriding and attacking for decades. Trump cannot win, of course he can’t. But to expect voters to back Biden when he’s this brazenly in support of a genocide is delusional.

    If dems want to win the vote, they MUST front a new candidate. Biden simply has too much blood on his hands this time. Dem voters will most likely abstain, and if not, then they’ll split the Dem vote. Tell Biden to sit down and let someone else run.


  • So what am I remembering then? Was that fallout76?

    They had a new game coming up and said they’ll be using their engine and there was a huge backlash, and they then responded that they’ll be working on a new one.

    I could’ve sworn my worst enemy’s right arm that that’s how it happened… Internet’s slow right now on the train but I’m keen to do some sleuthing on this now
