I'd love to put him in a zone of Truth (D&D spell) and just ask him what he actually believes. It's weird, because it means that I sort of respect the Tories more. They believed many abhorrent things, such as that a cripple like me is at best, an inconvenient drain on the country's resources, and at worst, someone who is making it all up to escape having to work — but at least they sincerely believe that. permalink fedilink source parent [–] jjlinux@lemmy.zip 3 points 9 months ago And tk think that you've barely scratched the surface of the actual shitshow that fucker is. I'm not British, but have plenty of very good British friends, and in my over half a century of age, I never though 1 fucker could destroy British culture and way of life the way this asshole has singlehandedly done, and somehow figuring out how to make it worse every day. I feel for the British people. permalink fedilink source parent
