How small a thought it takes to fill a whole life
said
Ludwig Wittgenstein
Think about it, and then think about it again, and again, until the full meaning sinks in.

I’ve answered it already – in three posts!
Where did I say that you said I am a wife beater?
Uh, I didn’t so why are you accusing me of doing so?
Where did you say that I said that you said that….
No more answers to repetitive questions – or their infinite variations.
I’ve answered it.

When drac posted this, I was wondering what was going on.
duh!
I re-read it and, unless I’m mistaken with her intent, it’s the sharpest comment on the thread.

Thought it was your last post!
I’ve explained everything I need to explain. People should look at the gist of the banter between your and your good friend, consider the meaning of the word ‘dabble’, and then make their own mind up.

There are more important things to post.

Mooosey,
I do think that all the talk of Rothschild conspiracies is anti-Semitic, and anti-Semitism chills me, whether consciously expressed or uttered without awareness.
Remember also I said in the original post and in my reply at the top of this page that I do NOT think that you’re an anti-Semite.
Even so, I expect nothing other than your…[Read more]

Those are thoughtful words, Linda, and kind ones too.
I’m not used to kindness in jc, especially on this subject.
Paige, Newcastle is a nice city, with good people in it. I’m not surprised that you’re reluctant to leave.
However, you must choose as you think best for your life. Other countries within the EU are also undergoing strains, with…[Read more]

How rich in irony!
I’ve been putting up with the intimidating abuse and infantile ridicule of this group of Brexiteers for quite a while – together or singly they’ve called me every name under the sun, from me being a pompous prig to a wife-beater and everything in between. Now they’ve suddenly decided to get on their high horses and act all…[Read more]

A visitor to life itself.
Which is why I always loved the psalm By the Waters of Babylon.

Milky,
I don’t agree that any of them should be locked up.
Police defence against hucklers can be more subtle than just pushing people into prison..
You’re absolutely right about Ian Bone. His journal Class War is an atrocity. British Anarchism has an honourable history going back to the Jewish tailors of the East End and the magazine, Freedom,…[Read more]

I really couldn’t resist the above
To me, it wasn’t the heckling of Anna Soubry. That’s common.
It was the ‘huckling’. Crowding around her, jumping in front of her as she walked, blocking her way. Very intimidating, especially to a woman, especially to a woman MP after Jo Cox.
They picked on the wrong woman, though, didn’t they?

Yes, you keep saying that you’re not responding…and saying it again.
Don’t worry about it.
I’m happy you don’t respond. I’m only interested in serious responses, and if I don’t see any then I don’t respond either.
No need for you, or your compatriots, to respond
Should go without saying.

Not at all.
The vast majority of brexiteers are people who regard themselves as patriotic and are deeply concerned about the situation here.
But there is a small number of people in this country – a collection of genuine Fascists and Far Rightists of various descriptions – who do seem ready to turn to intimidation and violence to stop all…[Read more]
