Yep. There are very specific issues that cops have to deal with and as someone who lives there pointed out recently, the problems are largely to do with the guns. I wouldn't want to do the job!

That's your definition but I can assure you that the definition varies wildly depending on who you ask. If we are to use your definition though then I don't believe we live in a patriarchal system at all. Men historically have been called up to fight and die if we went into a war, have higher prison sentences for the same crimes, are often harshly treated by the family court system, see chronic underfunding for things like testicular cancer in comparison to breast cancer which predominantly affects women etc etc. I say these things not to moan at the system in particular but to challenge the idea that women are systematically discriminated against by our society. Both sexes have a degree of discrimination and prejudice to overcome.

Without you offering a definition of what you mean by "right wing" your descriptions are meaningless I'm afraid.

I thought fitness wise we looked great last week. Definitely will help us tomorrow I reckon.

There you go again ascribing things to me that I haven't said. I think that white supremacist thinking very obviously has existed and still exists in a small minority of people. I think the idea that Britain is a white supremacist country and that all institutions and the vast majority of white people are systemically racist is complete nonsense. I think the term patriarchy is invented and goes by a different definition depending on who you ask. It's deliberately vague so that it can be twisted to suit the need sof whoever is using it at the time. I can definitely support arguments to make sensible adjustments to our economic system in order to make it fairer and improve things but that isn't the same as destroying the capitalist system which is insane, I think there are issues on both sides of the gender divide which could do with being sorted (see well known left winger jk Rowling and the abuse she has received lately and things like parental rights for fathers which I'm very passionate about and I'm a chair of a charity which seeks to tackle that particular injustice.) and undoubtedly race relations could be improved, just not by dividing everyone down racial lines and judging people because of their skin colour. So the answer is no I don't want to just keep the status quo and I don't believe any of those viewpoints are particularly "right wing".

He may have signed some sort of behaviour or conduct policy which would cover his actions outside of work too.

Think I already mentioned the demands from what I could see were to defund the police and replace it with some sort of community-led initiative. The details unfortunately were not forthcoming in the three articles I read beyond the puzzling description and I didn't have much of a desire to hunt further than that so happy for you to enlighten me.

Because whilst flawed, there's not been a better system invented than capitalism and there's numerous studies which tout the benefits of the traditional family unit for all sorts of outcomes. Seeing as you asked that wasn't the only things in their list that I happen to disagree with, the notions of patriarchy and white supremacy are also nebulous and ridiculous. Whilst we speak, Chaz- the Capital Hill autonomous zone currently not being policed has seen its fourth shooting in just a couple of weeks so its quite plain what removing the police force would lead to.

Like what?

Don't get me wrong, I would rather people weren't sacked for things like this but everyone knows that in the current climate there's going to be social media warriors out for your job.

I don't think he can have many complaints. He must have known the score when he did it.

Please find the post where I've said the bloke flying the plane over was a good idea? I think you'll find I've said the opposite.

I see your post is choc full of that fabled empathy you were banging on about. You're so virtuous.

Could there be other reasons for a higher black prison population do you think beyond simply discrimination and racism?

I find it odd that the BLM supporters on here continually chiding people with a different opinion for lacking empathy have shown zero empathy for the minorities who don't support BLM, for the police who have been injured and killed, for the business owners who have had their lives destroyed and for the innocent people who would be negatively impacted were black lives matter able to successfully defund the police, end the family unit and end capitalism. This fabled empathy that blm supporters like to claim they possess to a greater degree than others seems incredibly selective.

This has been an interesting conversation so far and worth a watch for people with an open mind. For anyone who doesn't have the time it's a black man giving his reasons why he doesn't support BLM. Makes some good points imo. It would blow soggy's mind I'm sure but he won't watch it.

You're right and it's why he won't offer any definition of what he means by alt right.

Good. Think we can all agree on that.

Piers is hilarious

That's a no then. I'd suggest not using terms for people when you can't even define the words.

No I'm not.

Interesting Tim. Care to offer a definition yourself?

I'd be really interested to hear your definition of the alt right. Seeing as you like to call everyone else by it I assume you have a quite precise working definition.

I'll leave that for you to fantasise over.

Sorry but I don't identify with silly labels like "over-priveledged white man". You sound ridiculous and maybe we should start calling a spade a spade and say that frankly you sound a little bit racist.
