Castro also lived the life of a king he had his own hunting island, I've been there, whilst everyone else lived/lives like peasants. The kids, even now don't even get sweets or crayons in the villages. A status symbol is the size of your pig, but on the bright side free booze on Sundays is not a bad idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Wall Posted 16 June 2017 Share Posted 16 June 2017 4 hours ago, Matt said: Fake outrage. People who don't know what they are on about but feel they need to have view, I'm all for it if they research, but generally it really is simply people arguing to feel important or valued, social media has gave them a voice and they need to use it, whether they're a sheep or not. It's boring to be quite honest because nothing will change, they will just be outraged for the sake of being outraged. I'm all for change but nothing will change. Actions speak louder than words. 100% this. In my mind, this need to feel included in grief or outrage (in large, unaffected numbers of people) began with the death of Diana. It now includes any disaster or anyone famous expiring. The modern day urge to unite in grief, despair, disgust, whatever seems unstoppable. Maybe it's better than the stiff upper lip and repressed rage Britains of a certain age will recognise, I'm not sure but it sure is uglier.

Anyway, it was just a light hearted observation about a name - that's all. Dozens of pissed up working class, labour supporting scousers on that video singing about their hero 'Jeremy' just made me smile... Makes me laugh that May has been called a Bitch, Cow, Ice Queen, Cruela DeVille and worse on this forum, yet one mention that Jeremy Corbyn has a public schoolboy sounding name and that's just not on!

DJ Barry Hammond Posted 16 June 2017 Share Posted 16 June 2017 Back to the initial topic... based on pictures I'm seeing now, something is growing here, something bigger is developing. Some people have suggested faux outrage, yet I can feel the very real anger and frustration growing in myself (might have noticed in my posts). A big part of this is because I can relate to ending up in a position of being completely helpless and dependent on the state and being confronted with incompetence, inaction and people who can only respond by following protocol regardless of how unhelpful that might be to a personal situation. Yet I also can't even begin to crompehend how much worse these people's situations are given the circumstances and yet despite the obvious need for urgent practical action, you have people in senior positions just sticking their heads in the sand, looking the other way - which only heightens the feeling of divisions between classes of our society. Its just horrible. It's inhuman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
