I always thought a rhino or an elephant were the thickest skinned species on the planet. How wrong was i. The man is a kitson of the highest order. An attention seeking opportunist con man
On the subject of Farage, it is now 6 days since Trump organised and invited a riot in Congress. This is the only thing Farage has had to say about Trump since.https://mobile.twitter.com/Nigel_Farage/status/1347693313374220288
Twitter is just full of crap.I don’t understand why anyone would want to read it every day and more so, why would anyone put any store on what is written there.
BST, regarding using it badly means it just reinforces what you already believe, I assume your point is don't just go looking for examples that confirm your own beliefs in order to strengthen your own resolve? If that's the case, have you ever come across a comment that made you change your mind regarding your own beliefs?
Many times BB. In all sorts of different directions. I think by using the word "comment" though, you're missing the point. Comments on their own are pretty much worthless. What makes me reflect is analysis. Putting together evidence and showing where it leads.
Which raises the question of how you form your opinions.
And THAT post of yours gets to the bottom of your problem BB.I don't post to score party political points. If I see things that I think are reprehensible or lies, or hypocrisy, I point it out. If I see things that I think are praiseworthy, I praise them. You assume it is all about scoring points, which perhaps says a lot about your attitude. An attitude that, when I say I praised a Tory Chancellor who found a way to steer a course last March between hundreds of thousands of deaths and millions of job losses, you dismiss that as being praise just because it moved in a direction I approved of.Stop and have a reflection on just what you were thinking when you wrote that. Because, if I wasn't used to you doing this, I'd be disgusted by the implication behind it.As it is, I'm not disgusted by it, because I suspect the implication never dawned on you when you wrote it. You were just diving in to your "let's stoke an argument" mode without thinking it through.
