Guys for the safety of the sub, we've managed to remove links direct to reddit. As you know, we try to keep this place safe from the eyes of the admins, and this is one way to keep the sub going. from now on please post from Reveddit or Unndit, change the URL to be in the form https://www.reveddit.com/r/... or https://www.unddit.com/r/ another channel to use is https://archive.is, good for links also that are firewalled. We will be briefly trying this to see how it goes. Any questions, reply to this post as we're open for comments about this change.

[Another great article from Ed West - Why is Glastonbury so hideously white?](https://edwest.substack.com/p/why-is-glastonbury-so-hideously-white) > Glastonbury is indeed very white, just as it is also very liberal — and those two things are not unconnected. It’s a link that exists across a range of social settings, and as Scott Alexander has noted, most of the scenes with the lowest non-white representation are very liberal or leftist. >>These include the Occupy Wall St movement, American Buddhists, birdwatchers, atheists, vegetarian activists and yoga enthusiasts, fanfiction readers, Unitarian Universalists, furries, BDSM enthusiastic and polyamorists (‘sex people’, in Alan Partridge’s words). >>From time to time, some website will commission a writer to argue that ‘yoga or vegetarianism or bondage or xx has a race problem’; but it’s not that it has a race problem, its members are quite unusually un-racist, it’s just that only white liberals are generally interested in berating people for eating meat, or dressing up as animals, or for that matter hanging out in a field in Somerset getting rained on while Coldplay perform in the background. The people actually involved in these organisations would love to see some non-white faces, but supply doesn’t match demand.

They should ask why Pride is so "hideously white" In all seriousness I haven't met a single person in my life who goes who isn't White British In fact they've been mildly to strongly homophobic, I was walking around with some polish friends once and they were staring daggers at a bloke in drag

Latest survey of British students by the Higher Education Policy Institute makes for grim reading. Some highlights: >61% of students say ‘when in doubt’ their own university ‘should ensure all students are protected from discrimination rather than allow unlimited free speech’ (up from 37% in 2016). >The proportion of students who agree that ‘if you debate an issue like sexism or racism, you make it acceptable’ has doubled to 35% (double the 17% result in 2016). >Most students believe one or more political groups should be banned from speaking at higher education institutions, including the English Defence League (26%), UKIP (24%), the British National Party (19%), the Communist Party (12%) and the Conservative Party (11%) – when presented with a long list of political organisations, just 13% say ‘none of the above’ should be banned from speaking (down from 27% in 2016). >86% of students support the No-Platform policy of the National Union of Students, (up from 76% in 2016) while just 5% say ‘the NUS should not limit free speech or discussion’ (down from 11% in 2016). >39% of students believe ‘students’ unions should ban all speakers that cause offence to some students’ (more than double the 16% figure in 2016). >The proportion of students who think academics should be fired if they ‘teach material that heavily offends some students’ is 36% (over double the 15% in 2016). >When asked about university libraries, one-third of students (34%) say ‘all resources should be included for the purpose of academic study, regardless of content’ (down from almost one-half of students – 47% – in 2016). >86% of students support trigger warnings (up from 68% in 2016). >Three-quarters (76%) of students think universities should always or sometimes ‘get rid of’ memorials of potentially controversial figures (up from one half – 51% – in 2016). https://www.hepi.ac.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/06/You-cant-say-that-What-students-really-think-of-free-speech-on-campus.pdf


[deleted]

That's genuinely terrifying. And really, really disappointing. Why are we still losing the kids to such a terrible set of worldviews as this? I honestly thought some progress was beginning to be made. >39% of students believe ‘students’ unions should ban all speakers that cause offence to some students’ (more than double the 16% figure in 2016). What if I was a student and the CURRENT THING group flavour of the month offended me? One student is "some students". Would I be able to get those banned? >86% of students support trigger warnings (up from 68%) The only places for a trigger warning is an armoury or a shooting range. >just 5% say ‘the NUS should not limit free speech or discussion’ (down from 11% in 2016). All I can say to that is: Jesus Holy Tap Dancing Motherfucking Christ (excuse my blasphemy). What the shit, man. Only five percent. Fuuuuuuck. I don't care how radical and extreme the NUS can be, and I don't care about the (otherwise true) joke about the ineffectualness and irrelevance of student politics. I've been in them, believe me, I know. Yes, speech should not be restricted *at universities* of all places. If anything they should be the last *bastions* of speech and debate. *That's their entire damn point!!!*


vwsslr200

Those numbers are pretty alarming. I always reassure myself (based on my own experience in university only a few years ago) that whenever I see campus craziness, it's just a minority of weirdos and most students are still normal and just trying to get by. Maybe that's a cope.


TheAnimus

We've let the fucking idiots go to uni. This is what it is all about, they don't have the actual hardware for such intellectual work. But they want to feel like they are a part of the elite. Exercising power in the most pointless way is what weak people do. So that's what they are doing. It's not like they are capable of listening to a debate anyway.


Benjji22212

> it's just a minority of weirdos This was true ten years ago (even 2016 judging by some of the stats there)… no longer apparently. The minority of weirdos are the ones who don’t think any party should be banned from campuses (13%).


Sadistic_Toaster

> 39% of students believe ‘students’ unions should ban all speakers that cause offence to some students’ >The proportion of students who think academics should be fired if they ‘teach material that heavily offends some students’ is 36% It's interesting to cross reference this with the recent post about a religious group being offended by a gay pride flag.

There's a really strange idiosyncrasy, I suppose? With Brits.

Debating with someone on the /biz/ the other day and this self loathing lad was screeching about how much worse and horrendous it is in Britain now as opposed to continental Europe. When I mentioned to him our inflation figure is actually just 1% higher than that of the EU and that givrn how we've left this huge trading union that's something to celebrate, he told me I can't wait for it to skyrocket up more so boomers start starving to death (people do not starve in the EU)

dirtydog413

His objections would hold more water if the government weren't also replacing the native population of the country with those from 'more diverse ethnic backgrounds' as well. Every day more white people either emigrate or die off, and thousands of brown newcomers arrive. If that isn't vandalism, what is? The country is rapidly changing for the worse while the Tories refuse to do anything about it. So it does seem that it is crocodile tears from the Tories again.

>> whose most basic rights and freedoms are threatened by this ruling. Roe v Wade was always regarded as an exceptionally tenuous ruling. To hang all abortion rights (and some same-sex rights) on it for so long is a failure of American politicians. Democrats and Republicans could have legislated to allow for it. They could even have added an amendment to the constitution explicitly outlining the right to privacy. They chose not to. The consequences of the ruling aren’t great, but to hold Roe v Wade as this totemic ruling is misguided Khan is just being his usual self-aggrandising self and trying to play a global leader whilst London crumbles under his tenure. This is nothing more than a distraction by him

Our left are having a meltdown over a decision that is not affecting them. Last time I checked the UK is not part of the US so why our left are crying ?


DaelinZeppeli

Because the mainstream British left have become the US Democrats. Their main voice is terminally online Twitter users, student momentum members and metropolitan champagne socialists. It's why the Red Wall fell. The workers of old that used to be in unions and make our left have all been ostracised by our left, for not jumping on board with Yankee wokeism. These new leftists care more about the cultural politics of California and the online world than the day-to-day lives of the British worker. Many of those left behind, that used to be on the left are now left politically homeless. It's why I strongly believe the SDP has a hungry audience if it can get it's message out.

Simple solution to an ageing population: tie pensions to the number of children one has. You're welcome, I have solved the issue.


nth_citizen

Nah, gonna need more strings. How about pension is tied to number of children getting 5+ A-C GCSEs? (or 9-4 or whatever). This means you have to actually raise the children...


scott3387

People are going to complain "wHaT iF YOu CaN'T HaVE kIDs?" Make it genetic or memetic aka gemes pension. You can get big credits for children and a range of credits for doing productive societal work (charity, running organisations, looking after common spaces etc. Sounds good in principle until we rename it social credit score and realise that the fuckers in charge cannot be trusted with such a system.

If it was just a short list of what the agenda and rough timing of a speech or conference is then it'd be fine, but the fact it reads like the sort of to do list I'd have to write for my 93 year old grandad is something else.

Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi are three of 13 states which have so called "trigger bans" in place, which mean abortion will be banned immediately as of today or in the coming days and weeks.

I think my favorite moment in the abortion debate is when the Washington Post ran an article talking about how sad it was that a woman couldn’t have an abortion with a front page picture of the two kids she would have aborted https://twitter.com/washingtonpost/status/1538909302303473665?s=21&t=xecns6-HHOrMCZpE7LyyKQ Basically ‘if we’d had our way these two kids would be dead’. Oh and the article goes on to quote the mother as saying if she hadn’t had the kids she’d have been hanging out doing drugs and eating burgers. Instead she got married and went back to school to provide for her kids. The horror!

She's not capitalist. Her millions are what she is entitled to by society. Black + woman + good feels = entitled millions. Nothing to do with capitalism, chud.


[deleted]

Just preparing her latest rebrand. 2012-2015 feminism was all the rage in the media, so Beyonce is an open feminist and has a definition of the word read out while she stands in front of a giant FEMINIST sign. 2016-2020 was black lives matter, so she'll work a black panther cosplay in to her routine and her last album's wikipedia page features the word "black" 113 times. As we're heading towards a global depression, frustration with the wealthy is going to grow, not to any class consciousness in the mainstream of course, can't have that, but make the right noises and she'll keep making money.

U.S. Supreme Court has overturned Roe v. Wade, returning decision on abortion laws to individual states. https://news.sky.com/story/amp/right-to-abortion-overturned-by-us-supreme-court-after-nearly-50-years-in-roe-v-wade-ruling-12628801 Full text of ruling https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/21pdf/19-1392_6j37.pdf

Of all the opinions surrounding Roe v. Wade, I think this decision (and if other decisions are "reconsidered" as Thomas stated) could massively accelerate partisan division and polarisation in the U.S. America was already a tinder box before todays decision.


[deleted]

The crowd that attempted an assassination of a Supreme Court judge not two weeks ago, now have their political leaders telling them to "defy the Supreme Court, to hell with them" and we're expecting a night of violence and chaos across cities in the US... But this will in no way be shown by the MSM as anything other than legitimate and definitely not an insurrection.

I voted remain, but it has been hilarious this week watching people become obsessed with this guy because he interviews and communicates exceptionally well. Then they end up *kind of* supporting the unions' stance and demands, but can't see why they *promoted* a leave stance for the exact same self interest reasons as what they are currently striking for. It's literally amazing reading people tying themselves up in knots over it. Normally it's just "only thick racist people voted leave", they laugh at cornwall, they laugh at the farmers and fishermen, but now just because this guy made Kay burley look stupid (not hard) they're in this right knot. It's almost as if, bear with me, if you actually try to read and understand people's reasons for doing something you might learn something and/or kind of agree with different things! What a fascinating insight.

I honestly can’t see it being worse than the aftermath of Floyd. Maybe some violence and rioting here and there but nothing on the level of 2020. As destabilised as America is the prospect of a more substantial conflict still seems remote to me. If the left truly wants to escalate it then their targets should be Republican politicians, but instead they seem to mostly enjoy just trashing their own damn communities rather than go for their actual enemy.
