  1. The full Joe Rogan show ‘debate’ from which the clip above is taken is worth watching. Dave Smith opens the door for Murray to humiliate himself and Murray steps right in. Murray’s ‘Have you been to the crossing point? …When were you last there at all?.. You’ve never been?!’ was one for the ages. Murray simultaneously demonstrating the perfect application of the received British accent as a tool of condescension when addressing Americans who it doesn’t impress, while pummeling his own longstanding arguments against personal experience trumping any other argument. It’s Murray’s intellectual dishonesty at its most pure.
  2. There seems to be an awful lot of people in this ‘elite’ the author of the OP opinion piece refers to: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/19/anti-trump-rallies-protests
  3. I can name the Billionaire Tech-Bros Trump invited to stand behind him at his inauguration. Musk, Zuckerberg, Bezos and Pichai. Lets see you demonstrate your ‘acumen’, give us some names.
  4. Of, it’s those billionaire tech Bros Trump invited to stand behind him at his inauguration?!
  5. It’s an opinion piece, the author is self confessed ‘Arch Rightwinger’ Rob Wasinger and The Hill prefaced the opinion piece with this: “THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY CONTRIBUTORS ARE THEIR OWN AND NOT THE VIEW OF THE HILL”
  6. If you have any information on who stuck these Swastikas on the GOP Offices send it to the NYPD, I’m sure they’ll be pleased to receive any real evidence you have.
  7. Having seen which way the wind is blowing you suddenly ‘aren't MAGA’. Unfortunately for you, your posting history says otherwise.
  8. “And there is nothing funny about being on the factual side of issues. You might want to try it one day?” You should give it a try yourself.
  9. I can’t find it on The Hill either. I looked out of curiosity as to the author of this opinion piece is.
  10. 147 member States of the UN recognize the State of Palestine.
  11. Moreover, not all of that 7% are old enough to vote, or might not have a vote, others might not vote, might vote for any of the candidates and might not be observant Muslims, let alone inclined to oblige anyone ‘telling’ them how to vote. Muslims, like any other groups of people professing any other faith are not a monolith.
  12. I think I’m correct in saying that the vast majority of Muslims on the UK were born in the UK, fully British citizens by birth, and upon reaching the age of 18 acquiring their citizen’s rights to vote. So what’s this ‘Muslim infiltration’ nonsense you refer to?
  13. I wonder at which point would you start throwing conniptions if we were to repeat that statement multiple times, while at each time changing ‘Islam’ for each of the many other religions present in the UK?
  14. You might be engaging in a bit of your hyperbole Jonny. These are local elections.
  15. So the war not ended in 24hrs and no sign of any ‘Devastating Consequences’.
  16. There are very few factual claims in the article, it is almost entirely repeating secondhand opinions. I have outlined two examples of claims in the article that are simply statements with zero backing them up. Feel free to challenge the point I made with respect to either of them.
  17. Of course you can, but don’t claim opinions are facts or that correlation is causation. You yourself stated ‘the article implies’, forgive me for pointing out it does so without providing evidence to backup what it implies.
  18. The article is replete with opinions and juxtaposition of statements with zero evidence of a link, the ‘implying’ you yourself identified. I’ve given you one example, which you have twice failed to address. Now here’s another. “Everything has a price tag,” he explains. “Not just undergraduate degrees; postgraduate degrees as well.” That’s a very serious allegation. No evidence is provided to substantiate it.
  19. I absolutely do not dispute the existence of racism within the sphere of health service provision, it is a problem for the NHS and those that work in the NHS. “The survey [of 77,000 NHS Staff , 220,501 nurses and midwives across 263 NHS organisations] revealed that 14% of nurses and midwives had experienced discrimination at work by the public – the highest level recorded since the question was first asked in 2019.” https://www.nursingtimes.net/workforce/racism-and-violence-against-nhs-staff-continuing-to-rise-13-03-2025/
  20. “Are you saying that people are lying in the article?” Not lying, but the author is definitely disingenuous in their discussion of the subject.
  21. As you rightly said above, ‘the article implies’, it does a lot of implying while providing no ‘apparently available facts’ to substantiate what the article ‘implies’. I’ve given an example above. The ‘fact’ of increased litigation is not an indication of any issues with recruitment, other causes, such as society becoming increasingly litigious might be a cause. So yes you’re correct, ‘implies’ and ‘apparently available facts’ but not actual evidence, nothing that can be actually examined as cause and effect. Though it plays well to some.
  22. Or just through plain prejudice on the part of the author.
