  • First one is about Germany, not UK. Secondly, you do realise wikipedia is unreliable, prone to edit wars and subject to those that have the most passion for a topic (like free speech “absolutists”/racists). It’s why academia tell you its a poor reference and to not bother.

    Can you find a UK example that you think overstepped the line?

    I’m in the UK, critical of Israel and not been arrested yet…

    It’s always interesting seeing distrorted American views of the UK.





  • “When I work I like to do my job and then relax.”

    They like to do it the other way around. They do nothing, then something. You do something then nothing. Why do you feel that your way has to b the right way and everyone else is wrong?

    Do your workload, and no more, and be fine with it, or move to another organisation with the same problem.

    The goal is for you to be able to understand that people in this world are different to you and that is fine. As long as you aren’t doing their job for them, it’s all good. If you choose to do that, it is on you.



  • What you are referring to is heuristics. It’s simplistic. Effective for wild animals that require processing of complex information quickly to escape predators for example, but not so much for civilised humans that require a greater deal of accuracy.

    You demonstrated the ineffectiveness of the approach by assuming I’m a Democrat or even American.

    The skill is in understanding the process, the flaw and developing a capability for critical thought. You’ll get there eventually, hopefully.


  • I’m on that instance and not a tankie. I’m politically left, but object completely to authoritarianism and justification of atrocities.

    So yeah, I get annoyed when pricks generalise and wish my death upon me for thinking maybe we should help the poorest in society and don’t think the super rich deserve every penny they get.

    I find it ironic when people are hating on one political grouping and their conduct is no better than the ones they despise.
