A fun side project from your Le Carre readthrough: Hugh Laurie (who plays Dickie Roper) wrote a spy novel in the 1990s called The Gun Seller. It's more overtly comedy than Le Carre and much more consciously influenced by the Clancy "listing weapons systems" kind of book, but still pretty good.

It’s fairly clear that they see this as a war against Islam and Muslims (hence the Gorton and Denton comment). Right wing politics in the UK is almost entirely driven by anti Muslim hatred and it’s clear their support of this war comes from that

Waste your life crying rather than admit that it's possible to do better. Fuck off.

OK this is really boring. Fuck off you pointless fucking doomer. Hide in your room and cry while other people are doing the work, you spoiled asshole.

the deck was stacked against her AND she played it terribly. Both are true. And we have to accept the truth of both of them to have any chance of doing better in future.

OK so this is going to come as a huge shock to you but two things can be true at the same time.

You're right, it's very sad to see that people who could be out there making a difference are letting the world roll over them. Thankfully you're in the tiny minority.

"Ain't shit defeatist about knowing the truth."

The defeatist part is saying that there was nothing Harris could do. It's strange learned helplessness

07.03.2026 23:52 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 0 πŸ“Œ 0

The fact that you think this is the truth is definitely odd. And honestly quite sad.

"to act like the country that has seen a rise in unemployment of blk wm under Trump aint racist is funny"

Who's doing that? The post you're replying to says that Harris was dragged down by sexism and racism.

what an incredibly defeatist way to think.

When he says someone else did it you know the evidence shows that he did it

Also the particular president the US has might not support this war two weeks from now depending on what the last person to talk to him said.

It's fascinating that in your mind you've decided to blame people who voted for Harris and told people to vote for Harris

You're getting annoyed because a piece of satire was aimed at one of your guys, that's all.

It isn't a source of information for anybody, it's a comedy newspaper.

Get ready to be annoyed when petrol prizes go up and a) a bunch of politicos declare the government's poll ratings have gone down because Starmer didn't go in with the US on Iran and b) a bunch of politicos who support the war blame the government for increased energy costs.

I'm the same with TV "dramas". What, I'm expected to believe that Bertie Wooster time travelled from the 1920s and works in a hospital now?

Pro wrestling has a viewer base to the left of most sports. AEW especially are significantly socially liberal.
