Best of the year, in January? 🤔

Scone should be pronounced scone. Scon is unacceptable.
I never thought I would find myself living in Dickensian England.
That’s how far democracy has gone down the drain, that even criticising cancel culture is ‘brave’.
Careful with that pitchfork, Eugene. Free speech is a civil liberty, not right wing.
Take it to a witch-burning.
Perhaps he can get a job at the Daily Mail.

They won’t hold an election if they think they are going to lose either. They will wait until the tide turns. If it doesn’t turn, they will wait until January '25.

I expect there will be filters on Lemmy eventually.
The EU is a corrupt totalitarian regime run by banks for their own benefit. The reason we have private finance initiatives which force public services to pay high interest rates is because of EU laws preventing borrowing from central banks.
GDPR is an EU law, and cookie warnings existed before GDPR anyway, as a result of EU law.
Because the government has to pay her legal fees perhaps.
