Still, it probably has a chilling ef fect. Voting Dems becomes like a secret you have to keep rather than something you should shout from the roofs - less likely to make that post on social media, put up a sticker or a sign, tell your friend and family etc.

You can't pay someone to vote a certain way, but what if you pay people who love {[interest that correlates strongly with republican support]} to vote.

You don't pay people to vote a particular way, which would be illegal, but you get the result you want regardless.

Yeah, Reddit has been leaned on. And is compliant.

Rejecting entry to a person who advocated for your invasion should be pretty simple. Do it.

The slave trade is a mandatory part of the curriculum at ks3. You've just forgotten. And it's pretty worts and all as far as Britain's involvement goes.

I agree with your sentiments though, everyone likes to mythologise their history.

Trump is actually right here. Tax havens benefit themselves at the cost of their neighbours.

Close down tax havens!

Seeing musk, trump and a Tesla in a single shot just makes that toxic association so much stronger. I don't think this is going to play out like they hope.

Plus, you know the boycott is working, talk about desperate.

Haha. Nah, you're good 😊 . Brits like beans because they're cheap, easy and available. They're ok, hardly a culinary experience worth seeking out though :)

Although they are one of your five a day!

Using Twitter and so on for official government channels was a short sighted decision.

"not very good". I'm actually getting really rather angry about this. In fact I think this might be a hate crime.
