It's an opinion piece and the thing about opinion pieces is that it can be totally stupid.

For what it's worth from a party unity perspective it would be better if he went now, the closer it gets to the election the more damage it does to the party when he neverably does leave. He should only stay if they are confident he can make it through to the election. It's no chance of that happening.

If he gets replaced then there is quite a lot of time still before the next election for his successor to fix things. If they wait until 18 months before the election there won't be.

Yeah The Sun doesn't bother with the second part.

About half their articles are about how the world is going to end, or what common household objectives gives you cancer, the other half is just right wing racist dog whistle stuff.

Been the sun journalist must have become much easier recently since they no longer have to make their story's up, they can just ask AI to do it for them.

Yeah because they totally didn't know before.

My uncle used to work for Microsoft back in the day and so he had one of the earliest commercial laptops. I think the laptop weighed more than he did.

It had the worst screen in the world it had a viewing angle of about 4° but everyone wanted to see it.

Move to smaller instances. There was a huge problem with everybody being on like four big instances and the whole point of federation is you don't have to be like that.

Move to instances hosted on a laptop in someone's basement in Peru with like 106 users or something. Make the fascists work for it, if you all conglomerate on one big host then they've got an easy target and you've got a massive single point of failure.

Under fascism anything they don't like is retrospectively illegal. I'm surprised you don't know that.

I would love journalists to rake discord over the coals for this and have them explain exactly how they think that this mentality is acceptable in the current political climate. Of course they won't because journalism is dead these days.

Well it'll be nice if they admitted wrongdoing

 

When you reveal a spoiler the black rectangles go away and it then renders the text in white, but on a white background (light coloured theme) The text renders is exactly the same colour as the background and so you can not see it unless you highlight the post, this renders the background of the post as light grey and there is just about enough contrast difference to now read the text.

When spoiler text is revealed it should render in the same colour as normal text. I'm not sure why it's white.

See images below for demonstration.

spoiler text is hidden

spoiler text has been revealed but is invisible

text post is highlighted and now you can see the spoiler text rendered in white
