- Comment on Tories 'dropped MP candidates after M15 warned they could be Chinese spies' 1 year ago:
So MI5 can get parties to drop candidates just by saying they “could” be a spy, without proof, or conviction?
Literally anyone “could” be a spy.
Doesn’t that mean the spooks can basically veto any candidate they don’t like?

I’d say it was written by an AI, but I doubt even an AI would make such a mistake.
- Comment on Happiness of girls and young women at lowest level since 2009, shows UK poll 1 year ago:
Perhaps it’s more to do with changes to the internet over the past 5 or so years? Such as the pervasive rise of algorithmic feeds designed to drive “engagement”?

Looking at their annual report on company house, last year they had a total revenue of £228,923, hardly a “giant”.
- Comment on Voter ID in England led to racial and disability discrimination, report finds 1 year ago:
Yeah, that’s what I assumed it was supposed to mean, but it really doesn’t read that way to me.

Beehaw is looking to shut down and or completely defederate.
They already de-federated 447 instances, I doubt that will make much difference.

more likely to fail to compare a photo ID to the person presenting that document if the person is of a different ethnicity
Wait, are they saying if someone is a different ethnicity they are more likely to not check if the ID matches?
That’s how it reads to me but I don’t think it’s the intention?

Paying off the loan they took out to compensate the slave owners for their “property” to be more precise.
As repugnant as that was, it was still preferable to the terrible waste of life the USA endured fighting a civil war over slavery.

Federasts protesting at the proms, I can’t think of a more petite bourgeois thing.

The question marks were there though.
Besides the article says
mysteriously found dead in a body of water
That doesn’t sound vague to you?

You can’t lie when you ask a question, only when you make an assertion.

They’re awfully vague about where he was found? Possibly he was found far away from enemy lines, executed by his azov “comrades”?
