Wide shot of a school playground with dozens of primary-school children in blue school uniforms standing around in groups. Behing theme there are huge trees and there’s a rundown brown-and-white apartment block in the background.

This month, executive interference turns a simple tale of mutual trust in a universe full of life and purpose into a bleak story of shooting a benevolent but defenceless cosmic intelligence through the brain. Still, we did enjoy the foam party on the way.

Those school children and students of ten years ago, with their highly moralistic, Manichean politics and otherworldly theories on gender and race, are now the voters of today.
They are also our first post-literate generation, a demographic which doesn't read newspapers, which doesn't read books willingly, who instead get their politics on their smartphones from emotive TikTok videos devoid of nuance, depth and context.
This is the demographic with a reduced attention span that doesn't even listen to radio bulletins or watch the news from reputed broadcasting organisations.

I spent a lot of the 2010s explaining that the anti-woke terror was the rage of old men who are going to be dead soon, knowing that when they’re gone, the blue-haired, variously-gendered kids will inherit the Earth and start chucking their most cherished bullshit into the bin. And whaddaya know?

such a power move to start the hymn Jerusalem with "and". All these other hymns are like "ooh hallelujah" and "ahh almighty" but Jerusalem's just like "WE'RE MIDWAY THROUGH A CONVERSATION ABOUT ANCIENT FEET. GET ON BOARD"

if you think the greatest threat to effeminate gay boys is the trans movement and not the cis straight men who overwhelmingly exclude and brutalize them then you should walk into the ocean immediately

Now watching @ZackPolanski spewing shockingly naive and delusional nonsense about Iran. God help us if he and his extreme left-wing Green Party ever win real power. He makes Corbyn look mainstream.

Indeed, can you imagine if we elected a PM who would disrupt this last 25 years of unbroken success, victory, prosperity and joyful national harmony

It’s not true that vaccines only reduce severity. Vaccines significantly reduce transmission, as well as the risk of long COVID.
