Of course The Guardian are in no position to take the moral high ground on this (or anything I can think of), no can or should forget that it was The Guardian who actively led the charge to undermine and destroy Jeremy Corbyn, that has now given the UK ...Comment: Open mike 29/07/2022

Like I said..let your fingers do the walking...I can't be bothered trolling through endless pages of pro war propaganda to find something that is so plainly obvious to anyone serious to see and understand....or maybe more importantly not massively biased ...Comment: Open mike 22/07/2022

I hardly see pointing out Western MSM's outrageous pro war/no negotiating stance is gaslighting..but then you seem more than happy for the Ukrainians and Russians to die like dogs in and unwinnable war, so your response is of little interest.Comment: Open mike 22/07/2022

Interesting to note that the industrial and manufacturing component of the post war Western Capitalist ‘democratic’ ideology you defend so vigorously on this forum has been enabled to grow over the past few decades almost exclusively through the ...Comment: Open mike 20/07/2022

Good piece Mike, thanks, it is always nice to see and read some counterbalance to the tsunami of hysterical anti-China rhetoric and propaganda which is passed off as serious news....it's hard to pick what is worse, the dismal warmongering MSM coverage of ...Comment: Open mike 18/07/2022

You do understand that Liberals like you who still cling to the fantasy of Russia helping Trump become POTUS, thereby effectively calling the 2016 election a stolen election put you squarely and absolutely in the same camp as the Right Wing nut jobs who ...Comment: Open mike 05/07/2022

Jordan Peterson is nothing more than a snake oil salesman, he is not the best source on anything. His appeal is stern father figure in an uncertain age...his popularity with young people is a very sad but also very telling indictment on the hollowness ...Comment: Open mike 04/07/2022
