Well that tracks as Eli Roth has never made a good film.

I like that the headline sounds like there was just a $1mil pile of loose cocaine somewhere that got blown away by the hurricane.

Now this is getting good. I’ll just take out my popcorn I brought from home.

Venture capitalist, the funniest of all professions.

Just need to make coffee at home and stop eating avocados. You’ll be a billionaire in no time!

He’s an American CEO vacationing on a different continent, how much more regular do you want it?

Someone’s got to crunch those numbers.

Right, thanks for that, it’s quite unclear to me from their comment, even if I re-read it now. I thought it was a weird spelling we use or something.

In the UK, “telegraph pole” can refer to any overhead wire carrying pole like this (usually the wooden ones), which can be carrying electric or telephone connections. They still do to in a lot of rural areas.

How else would you spell it?

Why do you think NBA players and football players have the same type of job as a politician? They are literally entertainers. Politicians should be running their area of politics to improve the lives of the people they represent, not sell them shit.

Why is buying the item the problem? Che Guevara isn’t selling you a shirt. He didn’t do a deal to sell shirts. The random theoretical shirt buyer you are talking about is not the same as an ex-president, who is also running to be president again, profiting from selling merchandising like a struggling garage band.

You say that like it’s not tacky for a former President to license their image to a shoe company.

Weird place to inject your Biden hatred.

She’s decended from nobel prize winners and married to a decendent of a baronet. It’s very much a “please don’t guillotine me” opinion piece.

I know there’s a constant scare about UK knife crime, but compared to other countries it’s really not the epidemic it’s made out to be.

Nobody said it is, but stopping people walking down the street with literal swords is probably helping.

It’s interesting you are saying it’s 6" like that’s not a bad thing when the law in the UK is no longer than 3".

I guess if it is plastic the sentence seems a bit harsh, but you would also get in trouble for a plastic replica gun that looked realistic. Seems like he has plenty of priors which is probably more the issue.

All in all, not oniony.

EDIT: It doesn’t seem plastic

Important to note that this wasn’t just a prop. The blade was sharp.

Man arrested for walking down street with sword has been sentenced.

Is it meant to be oniony because it is a video game sword?

Racism isn’t inherently a political issue and isn’t the whole story of slavery, but is a major factor when talking about enslaving a race. However, its close relationship to other major factors like colonialism, nationalism, supremacism and xenophobia, as well as financial structures allowing such enslavement and ownership, are all found well to the right of the spectrum.

No. “Republican” does not equal “Right wing”. Maybe in the modern context, but political parties evolve and shift on the left right scale over time. The Republican party was originally established as a less Conservative opposition to the Democrats.

Besides, the policial party pushing for the thing is surely much less important than the thing itself. The act of enslaving a portion of the population, based entirely on racial divisions, is an extremely right wing position.

Interesting choices. I think the only valid one there would be the second attempt on Gerald Ford (Sara Jane Moore), who wanted to spark a revolution.

The first attempt on him was by one of the Mason Family (Lynette Fromme), who were sometimes described as hippies, but were also keen on bringing about a race war.

John Wilkes Booth seems surprising to call left leaning, as he was pro-confederacy and angry about the abolition of slavery.

Lee Harvey Oswald was a Soviet defector, and did indeed call himself a socialist. However there’s the whole probable scenario that he wasn’t actually the shooter and never went on trial.

To mention other presidential assassinations, there’s Charles J. Guiteau, assassin of President James A. Garfield, who was a loyal republican, but felt he was personally wronged by the President (as well as mental illness).

Leon Czolgosz, assassin of President William McKinley would probably support your hypothesis more than the others, as an anarchist.

All in all, not really overwhelmingly left leaning.
