Trump

It is bloody scary when you see the way we are going with de Pfeffel, we are normally only a short way behind our mercun cousins.

Does everything have to come back to how much you hate the Tories?

Aye, our police haven’t started murdering people of colour with impunity yet and when the far right try and organise a protest no one turns up. I’m not super worried if I’m honest.

It was his tweets and just lying with impunity that made me think of the de Pfeffel gang. And no, not everything does come back to that but the two relevant threads.

Zed really surprised this passed you by though?

Also appears to have been protesters storming the Whitehouse and getting pretty close.

A report from two years ago about an incident from 5 years ago doesn’t really compare to what happens in the US Gavin.

My first comment was that we are often following along behind. Not that we were identical.

[ZedLeg]

So what do you mean then?

I think you and I probably largely agree politically but you keep falling into messy hyperbolism that doesn’t do anybody any good.

It’s almost Daily Mail levels of dramatics at times.

I am genuinely lost for words at the too-many-to-post examples of the seemingly out of control police in the US that are all over social media today. The place has gone f*cking mental but I can't help think this is exactly what Trump wants and its going to end up with some martial law, whites-only police state.

Throw in a casual use of “Pfeffel” and suddenly it sounds knowledgable though!

My first post was this:

"It is bloody scary when you see the way we are going with de Pfeffel, we are normally only a short way behind our mercun cousins."

I was comparing Trump's style of leadership with that of dear old Johnson's.

You then said one death doesn't compare to the US deaths but that was not what I was doing, you had said we hadn't started killing people of colour with impunity., my link was responding to that.

The situation in the US is fucking horrifying.

Apologies for the wee dig at the Tories but yes, I do not like them.

[Delphi]

This is scary

[ZedLeg]

Troops on the street and the attorney general is talking about using anti terrorism laws for protestors. It’s getting pretty alarming over there.

[Simon]

When they start looting, we start shooting:

[Mito Man]

It’s like the Wild West there, although with 20% unemployment a race issue was just the catalyst it needed.

Is that really a protest ?

Looting has nothing to do with protesting. Opportunistic mob theft.

[ZedLeg]

There has been footage of protestors stopping looters as they don’t want to give the police an excuse to escalate.

Not that they’ve needed one, the number of people suffering eye and brain injuries from being shot in the head with rubber bullets is shocking.

[Beany]

I mean, he's asking to be assassinated, isn't he?

I saw that on the TV last night and just wished he’d FOAD

[Rich B]

This was one of the rounds of a quiz we did last night. Terrifyingly none of us got more than 7 right!

Who said it - Trump or Partridge?
