Brandolini's law (or the bullshit asymmetry principle) is an Internet adage coined in 2013 by Italian programmer Alberto Brandolini. It compares the considerable effort of debunking misinformation to the relative ease of creating it in the first place. The adage states:

The amount of energy needed to refute bullshit is an order of magnitude bigger than that needed to produce it.[1][2]

Not too dissimilar to how one of the officers struck a protestor with a sledgehammer mere seconds before.

Watch the video yourself, it has been released.

The officer was signed off for 3 months. For a back injury. That's nothing as back injuries go. The other officer that they tried to spin as also brutally mauled by barbarian terrorists wasn't even taken to hospital because the injuries were so superficial. This is so clearly an attempt by the police and government to spin one action done in the heat of the moment in an act of self defence as the premeditated actions of an entire group.

Even if the intention was to grievously harm an officer, GBH is not terrorism. GBH by one member does not reflect the entire group and its intentions. If that were the case then the police are also a terrorist organisation (wait... actually...)

Funny how they're never willing to sacrifice themselves/their family/friends/community though. It's always others who must die in order to ~~make lebensraum~~ save the planet.

"The Anarchist Tension" by Alfredo M. Bonanno explores anarchism not as a fixed political theory but as a dynamic way of living and engaging with life. It emphasizes the importance of daily purpose and the ongoing struggle for freedom and self-determination.

Everything is political. The person you responded to was trying to give an explanation, they wrote 3 words and a question mark. Whether they're correct or not doesn't matter, they were contributing.

Get your aggressive attitude and demand, like you're some form of authority, the fuck out of here. It's not conducive to a healthy community or discussion. Your aggression removed the possibility of discussion, not them.

I wonder why a man who called Trump "daddy" would think this...

Or put another way:

1.5 months of work vs 1 year of work.

At least Yorkshire Weed wouldn't be a lie and it wouldn't involve exploitation from our colonial past.

Yes, I too show religious fealty to [regional brand]. Those Americans with their corporate sanewashing and bombardment of adverts are silly but I'm of course superior because my marketing for [brand] is more sophisticated.


This is a fucking advert for a company that purchases raw materials cheap from ex colonies, shoves them in a bag, and sells it to you for silly prices with the gall to say it's from Yorkshire. Fuck these guys.

The only way they can remain MAGA is by having the three traits required to be MAGA in the first place...

They're not letting the Met do anything.

They're explicitly instructing them to, with proscription and their crackdown on protest moreso than the Tories did.

We have red Tories in charge just now instead of blue Tories. It's the Democrats and Republicans in America all over again. And because both flavours of Tory are shite, people are dissatisfied and terrifyingly pledging their support to Reform (aka the fascist party) instead.

Your Party (socialists) and The Greens (environmentally focused social democrats-ish) are also gaining vote share but alarmingly not at the same rate as Reform.
