Man famous for acting like a child on TV who was paid with public funds condemns people for taking public funds when they actually need it.

[-] opiumfree@hexbear.net 65 points 4 days ago

living in europe i know so much of the discourse is centered around whether or not welfare claimants are human beings. i just wish stalin had not stopped.

[-] BettercallMao@hexbear.net 26 points 4 days ago

Comrade Kruschev repeated the same mistake when given the chance on Cubas missile case

Why did they insist negotiating with people who had bad purposes even having strenght to eliminate them?

[-] ShimmeringKoi@hexbear.net 26 points 4 days ago

Iran being the latest to make the classic human mistake of treating America as anything but the pedophilic Terminator it is: there can be no negotiation, you will kill it or it will kill you

[-] Andrzej3K@hexbear.net 20 points 4 days ago

Because the Americans are slathering dogs who would rather end all life in this planet than concede defeat. Kruschev realized this and (correctly imo) blinked first

[-] SacredExcrement@hexbear.net 11 points 4 days ago

Not just a Europe thing unfortunately

[-] MrSulu@lemmy.ml 22 points 3 days ago

This is the prick who punched a fellow employee for not bringing him his meal fast enough and hot enough, on filming location.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 13 points 3 days ago

I’m sick of being an asshole seen as an endearing quirk.

If Jeremy Clarkson was left-wing everyone would be dogpiling him, but since he’s a chud we have to hear how “aspirational” he is.

[-] Cysioland@lemmygrad.ml 6 points 3 days ago

And who got rewarded for that by Jeff Bezos (and also his chud friends James May and Richard Hammond)

[-] Simon_Shitewood@lemmy.ml 10 points 3 days ago

Jeremy Clarkson should be writing thank you letters to people for not beating him to death with a stick like a rabid Joe biden.

[-] ClathrateG@hexbear.net 34 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago)

Jermey Clarkson should be writting thank you letters to the workers subsidizing his hobby farm et al

[-] ThatVeganYouHate@hexbear.net 37 points 4 days ago

British people are devils lol

[-] DisabledAceSocialist@hexbear.net 30 points 4 days ago

Well, some of us are at the mercy of the devils.

[-] tyranny@crazypeople.online 2 points 3 days ago

the devil doesn't want to be associated with us brits

He’s a priveleged, well off, ex public school boy.

[-] WhatDoYouMeanPodcast@hexbear.net 40 points 4 days ago

Still waiting on billionaires to do something similar first. Or all the people who took the payroll loans for their podcasts during COVID. Or the military. Or the people who do wage theft to give it back. Or that one time with the illegal tarrifs where the people to whom the cost was given aren't the ones who were compensated.

I'd love a little "thank you for structuring your society around letting me loot everything sacred to the point you can't even adequately look after the meek and sick"

[-] moss_icon@hexbear.net 28 points 4 days ago

Jeremy Clarkson has always been a piece of shit

[-] tactical_trans_karen@hexbear.net 24 points 4 days ago

Turns out his Top Gear persona wasn't an ironic bit.

[-] Keld@hexbear.net 23 points 4 days ago

He got fired for actual assault. Full on committed a violent crime because his food wasn't to his liking, and it barely slowed his career down.

[-] moss_icon@hexbear.net 15 points 4 days ago

Given his anger issues and how red he is in the face it’s either a miracle or unfortunate that he hasn’t had a heart attack yet

[-] Kefla@hexbear.net 7 points 3 days ago

it’s either a miracle or unfortunate that he hasn’t had a heart attack yet

Tis a curse. The world has been inflicted with Jeremy Clarkson and we're not going to be rid of him so easily

Very British story.

[-] 7bicycles@hexbear.net 34 points 4 days ago

so when can I expect that letter because that man got rich off of de facto taxes doing a superflous show about cars. I'm not gonna pretend I didn't watch it a lot when I was younger but it ain't exactly the sort of thing a state needs to do

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 30 points 4 days ago

More and more I'm convinced the west worships moloch and it's full of just total misanthropes.

[-] huf@hexbear.net 15 points 4 days ago

two gods. the line god and the blood god.
the line god requires blood sacrifice and gives you money.
the blood god requires blood sacrifice and gives you nothing.
they're worshipped enthusiastically.

[-] DisabledAceSocialist@hexbear.net 12 points 4 days ago

It would explain a lot. I think when all the Jeffrey Epstein stuff came out there were things about the elites worshipping Moloch.

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 7 points 4 days ago

Molech isn't even a god one can worship, it's the name of a specific practice of child sacrifice. One does not worship Molech, they commit Molech.

[-] FlakesBongler@hexbear.net 28 points 4 days ago

They should load him into a rocket sled and fire it into a wall ala The Running Man

[-] EmmaGoldman@hexbear.net 9 points 4 days ago

He should have been inside the Reliant Space Shuttle

[-] PoY@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 days ago

hopefully one of his dogs tears his throat out

[-] kristina@hexbear.net 19 points 4 days ago

Honestly I kinda like the idea of people on benefits being able to write a thank you letter to a random tax payer or something to give the administration a bit of a human touch. I wish people could see how important it is to people's lives. But it shouldn't be forced, that's ridiculous.

Billionaires should have to beg for mercy every day on live TV. If they don't get enough mercy votes they get dunked in a tank filled with sharks, Dr. Evil style

Reply: you are welcome, buy a gun

[-] segfault11@hexbear.net 15 points 4 days ago

this mf wants a participation trophy 😒

[-] BelieveRevolt@hexbear.net 13 points 4 days ago

Doesn't this guy have cancer? Hurry up and die already like your show.

[-] moss_icon@hexbear.net 10 points 4 days ago

He’s in remission, unfortunately

[-] GrouchyGrouse@hexbear.net 10 points 4 days ago

“Full thank you”

As opposed to what, a half thank you?

Is this one of those admissions that this motherfuck is such a miserly piece of shit he thinks “thank yous” come custom order?

I hope Jeremy Carson dies in a Clarke crash

He probably thinks they should write a long, grovelling essay.

Welcome to c/news! We aim to foster a book-club type environment for discussion and critical analysis of the news. Our policy objectives are:

We ask community members to appreciate the uncertainty inherent in critical analysis of current events, the need to constantly learn, and take part in the community with humility. None of us are the One True Leftist, not even you, the reader.

Newcomm and Newsmega Rules:

The Hexbear Code of Conduct and Terms of Service apply here.

  1. Link titles: Please use informative link titles. Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed.

  2. Content warnings: Posts on the newscomm and top-level replies on the newsmega should use content warnings appropriately. Please be thoughtful about wording and triggers when describing awful things in post titles.

  3. Fake news: No fake news posts ever, including April 1st. Deliberate fake news posting is a bannable offense. If you mistakenly post fake news the mod team may ask you to delete/modify the post or we may delete it ourselves.

  4. Link sources: All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. If you are citing a Twitter post as news, please include the Xcancel.com (or another Nitter instance) or at least strip out identifier information from the twitter link. There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance, such as Libredirect or archive them as you would any other reactionary source.

  5. Archive sites: We highly encourage use of non-paywalled archive sites (i.e. archive.is, web.archive.org, ghostarchive.org) so that links are widely accessible to the community and so that reactionary sources don’t derive data/ad revenue from Hexbear users. If you see a link without an archive link, please archive it yourself and add it to the thread, ask the OP to fix it, or report to mods. Including text of articles in threads is welcome.

  6. Low effort material: Avoid memes/jokes/shitposts in newscomm posts and top-level replies to the newsmega. This kind of content is OK in post replies and in newsmega sub-threads. We encourage the community to balance their contribution of low effort material with effort posts, links to real news/analysis, and meaningful engagement with material posted in the community.

  7. American politics: Discussion and effort posts on the (potential) material impacts of American electoral politics is welcome, but the never-ending circus of American Politics© Brought to You by Mountain Dew™ is not welcome. This refers to polling, pundit reactions, electoral horse races, rumors of who might run, etc.

  8. Electoralism: Please try to avoid struggle sessions about the value of voting/taking part in the electoral system in the West. c/electoralism is right over there.

  9. AI Slop: Don't post AI generated content. Posts about AI race/chip wars/data centers are fine.
