Countdown

[stewarty27]

There’s een or twa lads
Wha I could cry ma chums
They’re canny and meek as can be
There’s Tam wi his pigeons
And Wull wi his mice
And Robert Maclennan and me

Ah Michael the Bard O' Dundee, This song should have been played as they carried auld Lizzy doon the steps.

Oh it wasn't any surprise, just the figure £15 billion ( 15 thousand million really) seemed familiar in regard to the energy bailout.

I would suggest that I'm probably more left wing than you obviously think.

[Mason89]

There isn’t really a left & right anymore. It’s an outdated concept. Some of the craziest c*nts in the uk would classify themselves as traditional left wingers, while fluffing every right wing policy going.

[donsdaft]

Fluffing?

You're right though, we seem, not surprisingly, to have copied the Yanks again.

So we now have right wing and pathetic wishy washy liberals.

[Mason89]

Fluffing?.

From the **** industry. Fluffers wipe the spunk off the stars, enabling them to carry on with the work. There’s an information war on & the battle line isn’t left v right

[donsdaft]

Fluffing means making an a'rse of something.
Normally used in regards to f'ucking up some speech or other.

As in " he fluffed his lines"

There's always been an information was on.

[Mason89]

There's always been an information was on.

The rules have changed dramatically over the last ten years. The biggest weapon in an information war previously was lying. Now it’s bullsh1t. Without bullsh1t, there is no Brexit or Trump election victory. Dump enough bullsh1t onto the web & you can get folk to believe anything. School shootings were faked, elections were rigged, trans folk want to commit *** crimes in bogs & vaccines don’t work.
You can use it to hide important stuff within the bullsh1t. Remember the weird interview with Boris about how he paints busses as a hobby? That knocked the £350m NHS bus down to around page 3 on Google searches.

Nobody cares whether the person reading the bullsh1t is left or right. It’s not important. The trick is to wind up both. It’s not enough in the US to have thousands of bots threatening to take away your guns. You’ve got to have thousands more pretending to be gang bangers saying they’re going to shoot you up the moment they do.

Current favourites are trans folk (everybody hates them) & Wokery, as the concept annoys everyone.

That said, you can’t lose if you’re not playing

[donsdaft]

Of course, the biggest bulls'hit of the lot is that there is such a thing as trans folk.



But if all that is behind your constant accusations of me not being able to make up my own mind then you're even more deluded than I thought you were.

Facebook is for poofs and lassies, I've never tweeted in my life, I don't watch the telly and I'm perfectly capable of working out whether I'm reading s'hite when I see it.

[Mason89]

Of course, the biggest bulls'hit of the lot is that there is such a thing as trans folk.

There are. That's just simply fact. What your saying there is no different to saying you dont believe in pigeons, or bananas are a work of fiction.

Entertain this thought if you will. What if say 3 or 4 years ago, Scottish independence movement was fairly united. So much so, that folk would even go along to marches that had Tommy Sheridan on the bill. Now a chunk of it has split off entirely, over a single irrelevant issue & now attack the FM far more vigorously than the Tories ever did. Who benefits from that do you think? Again, the detail in the end result isn't important. Its great they vote for Alba but if it they switched back to Labour, that would be fine too. As long as you're working for the British state, that's the main thing.

Its important to focus on the trannies though

Facebook is for local gossip but you don't need to be on Twitter to be influenced by Twitter. That's where all the news you get comes from. Any 'breaking' story has usually been on Twitter for hours. We were left with the bizarre pantomime of the BBC reporting that the queen was still alive for about 4 hours after everyone with a Twitter account knew she was dead.

You say you're not influenced by it at all. Id suggest that's a little naive
