Welcome to a world where we know the situation is empowering the same elite class that perpetuates the crisis, but we don’t do anything about it. We’re just teaching them to be better at keeping their mouths shut about it.

The pandemic been good to us too since the wife works in health care. Overtime, bonuses, pay increases, stimulus checks. And when there are shortages obviously we get prioritized.

Got a legal assistant in the family too, she's doing great too. No court, work from home, her big complaint is no alone time from the kids.

A lot of people are hurting but it has benefited others. Sucks, but it's not necessarily malicious.

Huh?

When it comes from UK Labour, a political party well-known for punching down and abusing the working class, it damn sure is malicious.

Siding with those who punch down is an act of bullying. Stop bullying people. It's wrong.

Yup, nailed the maliciousness. Knew it straight away. Who else would defend the wealthy but someone with a heart of stone?

I also eat children and drive slow in the passing lane.

You often skirt close to the line, but ffs, some things ARE NOT OKAY

I love that labour is now known for screwing their voting base

Sure, many benefit. I was split up from my girlfriend, and we would arguably have gone our separate ways if COVID-19 hadn't come along when it did, leaving us effectively stuck together with nothing to do but come to the realisation of what had gone wrong, what we could have, leading us to get back together again and be closer than ever. For that, I'm somewhat grateful to China. Still, I wouldn't use the phrase 'the gift that keeps on giving'. That'd seem a little insensitive.

Some of these people need to meet the business end of a guillotine.
