Riots

hey that guy Caelus was right actually. Starner is going to use this to enforce a strict police state on the British public. Look it up it’s true. This is like the country being put on lockdown. Don’t get me wrong what these people are doing with they’re riots is making things worse as it’s giving starmer the excuse he needs to shut down the country and label anyone that questions the government a far right fascist.

If 'one' has no context within which to filter the information discovered......then do so (ie look it up) , would merely reinforce whatever prejudice that 'one' had before...imho.

This is how 'targeted news' works...to the best of my knowledge.  It "hardens positions" at best...and "seeds division" at wost.

My understanding is that - whether you are "with us" or "against us"......if you blindly "look it up, online"....then you will be "hardened" in your pre-existing position.

[Unpacking my soap box....stepping up on my soap box.....]

When I hear something, or someone, whom makes me think "now there's a good thinker".....the first thing I do is look for EVERY detrimental thing that has ever been said about that person or that cause.

It is only then, after hearing BOTH sides of the story, that I choose to form an opinion.....and even then, I remain open to changing my opinion, if new evidence comes to light.

I don't understand why people don't CALMLY seek out the opposing position in order to "challenge" it.

I had presumed that this interrogatory modus operandi would be an autists "defluat position" = how very WRONG I was !

Sometimes people disagree with you but that doesn’t mean they don’t like you you know.
