Popular Post Buce Posted 1 July 2021 Popular Post Posted 1 July 2021 I had no idea Shilton was such an arsehole. What an embarrassment to the club. 5
Popular Post bovril Posted 1 July 2021 Popular Post Posted 1 July 2021 Shilton always comes across as a bit special needs. Great keeper, but not much between the ears. 4 1

Koke Posted 1 July 2021 Posted 1 July 2021 Peter Shilton is a knobhead. As is Ian Marshall unfortunately, he spouts some asinine stuff, or at least he used to, haven't checked his social media feed in ages. 1 1

Serious filtering required, but then somehow you risk missing what everyone else sees. Tricky. And if you're in a position where you have to know as much as you can because you have to understand where everyone is coming from, then you can't afford to filter either. Yes, tricky. But good communication (science in particular) is a job of absolute necessity for a variety of reasons. Tbh that's why I'm glad we have folks like Sir David still good at fighting the good fight.

It is nasty, I would agree, but hardly so much as military or more direct action of any kind IMO. I don't disagree that a problem exists, but I still wouldn't go so far as calling it oppression as other countries still have a multitude of decent options for dealing with it. For the time being, anyway, and yes, that could change. I've actually been digging for the thread where we had the conversation and couldn't find it, but I do distinctly remember being rather shocked at you saying something along the lines of "Russians and Chinese use tech to deceive populations as an instrument of realpolitik, why shouldn't the West?" My thought then as now was that there are some lines you can't cross if you're the "good" guy, and moreover some lines you shouldn't cross if humanity is going to get along in the ways that it simply needs to. The ways social media and the like have come along in the meantime only reinforce that belief for me. If it can't be found you're going to have to take that on faith, though. Economic warfare is the next stage in world domination. Build a society and entire system on the almighty $$$.... i guess you get what you deserve.

leicsmac Posted 2 July 2021 Posted 2 July 2021 9 minutes ago, Carl the Llama said: The dispassionate tone of Doc's comment notwithstanding, the implication here is that you get your pleasure from other people being unhappy. If you're capable of introspection I'd suggest you think about what that says about your character (or lack thereof). It comes down to the mentality that this stuff is somehow a zero sum game; that everyone can't be happy or adequately addressed in life and so there must be people who are not. Just World Fallacy plays a large part, too - because if you're unhappy, you must have done something to deserve it, right? 2 minutes ago, Jon the Hat said: I'm a bit of a Prof Alice Roberts Fan myself She's excellent too. Good science communicators are more important now than possibly they've ever been.

According to a legal challenge against the school lodged by the boy’s parents, he said he would “give alms to the oppressed”. The teacher interpreted this as “give arms to the oppressed” and made the Prevent referral." 1
