Turns out it wasn't just the CIA in Latin America on the "good" side who were deft at using words and tactics to incite terrible events.

Sampson Posted 21 October 2021 Posted 21 October 2021 1 hour ago, st albans fox said: Her majesty isn’t v well  hopefully it’s nothing serious They're using the same coded language they used about 2 weeks before Prince Philip's death tbf. "in good spirits" with absolutely no talk about her condition, only her morale. Not saying she's necessarily close to death's door or anything, but you feel they'd be sharing a lot more about her condition unless she was really quite ill.
leicsmac Posted 22 October 2021 Posted 22 October 2021 https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-59004088 Â This is stating the bloody obvious, but I guess it does need to be said. Either humanity co-operates and does the work together, or it falls apart squabbling over who will take most advantage of the terrible mess that is left. Â Â

Obviously we like them to be realistic and there'll always be risks in film making, during stunts etc, but surely a fake gun shouldn't be able to kill someone. Edited 22 October 2021 by Facecloth

In this case they’ve had 30 years of safety training since then, how the hell does this happen now?! And the DP and director too - was he firing at the camera or did it just go off in conversation? Poor guy. Heartbreaking all round.Â

Free Falling Foxes Posted 23 October 2021 Posted 23 October 2021 (edited) KICK IT OUT Anti-racism group urge Newcastle fans to stop wearing tea towels on their heads after Saudi Arabia takeover. Â However, Newcastle owners say: A Newcastle statement on some of the fans' clothing. "The new owners have been overwhelmed by the welcome of the local community, following the acquisition of the club two weeks ago. "The fans who have celebrated by wearing culturally traditional clothing, including head coverings, have been part of that welcome. "Those who wish to support the club by wearing appropriate culturally-inspired clothing should feel free to do so as they see fit. We are inclusive to all. "To reiterate what we said previously, neither the club nor its new owners were offended by attire worn, and appreciate the overt statements of support and acceptance by our great fans." Â Racism exist but sometimes people go looking for it where none exists. In fact, they are doing the fight against racism a disservice by almost managing to trivialise it.
