A hill you are prepared to die on

What is your hill you are prepared to die on.

Mine is the moon landing was fake.
Botox makes you look older.
Sex is overrated.
Some art work is not art its crap.

The thread title was hardly misleading @TheLastSilverSaint

Some crimes there's no rehabilitation. Man who rapes his child, the one that murdered his wife just after searching on escort sites, jailed this week, the one that raped a women to death on a park bench. The gang rapists on Brighton beach. The man that raped the pensioner outside the church, Grooming gangs, murderers, John Worboys. Persistent criminals who just won't stop making peoples lives a misery (obvs very persistent). I don't believe in the death penalty but my tolerance along with frustration at Governments, police and judiciary I'm leaning towards let's get another island. We shouldn't have to live with these people.

Also moon landings happened.
Without vaccines a significant amount of those on here wouldn't be alive to post and yet the world still has anti-vaxxers, I don't get it.
Donald Trump isn't fit to be a local councilor and he's terrible at the job. MAGA is pathetic.
No pandering to any religion - circumcision is abuse male or female.
Transwomen have male pattern offending and for most it's a fetish.
Arresting/visiting people for a tweet is insane especially when I see some horrific tweets aimed at Jewish people and nothing happens.
Property investors from outside of UK should be banned and limited within UK.
Nothing will change about rape and MVAW because it's too big of a problem and too costly. See point one, shove them on an island.
Some on the left have gone so far they're now far right.
Spogs are the greatest sweet ever.
Audi drivers are terrible drivers.
This post is too long but I could go on.

It doesn't work for cars though, drivers still drive like idiots.

Re French and Irish sign language being related, on a school trip, a friend of ours was able to "speak" to a random group of (deaf) French teenagers at a time when we were unable to communicate very effectively using our school French or their school English.

It was amazing to see actually. I remember she told us that it was because the two sign languages were close, but I hadn't realised (or maybe have since forgotten) that it was only because it was Irish sign language, and that BSL wasn't the same.

With the Audi thing, are they set up in such a way that makes people drive badly, or does the marque attract worse drivers? Do we need a separate driving test for Audis (and SUVs)?

That's amazing! I love that.

My own BSL knowledge is confined to the alphabet but I would at least be able to sign/spell words out very slowly!

England's past is no more unsavory than any other country.

Ukraine bombed a load of Russian bit farms. Suddenly the "right wing" bullshit lying posts have been A LOT quieter.

True 😂😂😂

What makes you think they are Russian bots? Why Russian? You have proof of these Russians? Are they in the room with you now? Definitely Russian, yes?

Agree on Brexit and Trump. Trump second time has been a filthy nasty 'leader'

Sorry if my statement was too broad to be clear.
What I mean is that British sign language should be required curriculum in British schools. (And likewise American sign language be required in American schools and so on) Not that every signed language should be taught, just like not every spoken language in the world will be practical or useful to British students.

But BSL is the natural language of Deaf British and should be taught in schools like English is. ❤️

Letting your kids get overweight is abuse (unless medical prob)
Gentle parenting is complete and utter tosh
Screens in a restaurant is shit parenting, no headphones is double shit parenting.
My dog just wants to say hello...put him on a lead you twat.
People who let off balloons for dead people are idiots.
People who drink until they vomit are disgusting.
People wanting stuff for next to nothing on Vinted.
Letting your toddler take everything out of the trolley onto the conveyer belt which takes 10 times longer to get through the till.

I accept I will get flamed.

Home Ed Parents are smug and believe they are superior to others but put on a faux naivety when challenged about it.

People who stand outside Abortion Clinics hurling abuse at Women thoroughly deserve a smack in the gob and need to butt out of other people's business.

Vegans need to understand that if they want people to listen to them they not stop either talking in a condescending manner or screaming and shouting like a toddler. People want to be talked to not at.

There are 2 sexualities and 2 genders. The term CIS is bollocks. Trans Women are not Women, they are simply men wearing dresses. The word Bigot has now been cheapened by overuse and is also used incorrectly most of the time.

Anti Vaxxers call people sheep for choosing to vaccinate instead of following them and refusing to vaccinate, and fail to spot that this actually makes them the sheep. They also no doubt eat UPFs, Smoke, Vape, Inject stuff into their face and lips, have weight loss jabs, or tattoos or give their kids brightly coloured sweets and drinks full of god knows what.

Many kids that actually have Autism and ADHD don't get help due to Parents that are in denial and yet many parents shouting loudly that their kids have it either see it as a badge of honour or want money and a get out of jail free card for their shit parenting.

Boomers need to shut the fuck up with the Coffee and Netflix narrative, not only is it trite and clichéd, our local garden centre café which is hellishly expensive is rammed daily with pensioners who supposedly can't afford to heat their homes.

Agree. ‘Autism’ is so broad a ‘spectrum’ now that it no longer clearly conveys what it is.

Like the word ‘Cancer’. Huge spectrum of conditions underneath that term. Nobody just assumes they understand what type you have, what your prognosis is, or what your treatment options are. They actually take the bloody time to ask - do you want to talk about it and, if so, what type/stage is it, how is it impacting you … and do you need anything from me?

I’m with you there and am a dog lover and owner.

people who were very far from the States - amateurs from many countries - were following and tracking the landings.

It's beyond belief that the US managed to persuade / bully / intimidate / bribe all those thousands of amateurs in many different countries that something had happened, that hadn't.

Every one of these i also agree with, bravo.

Love this 😃

there have been idiots and keyboard warriors since bulletin boards and green screens, the difference was it was all dial up and massively expensive which muzzled them a bit.

Mmm, bit of an angry thread. I'll pass.

They got better imo, but that opinion splits the room in Geekdom!

I can discuss stuff like this for days, dont get me started on the plot holes in Harry Potter!

I am just surmising. Where were the bot farms bombed in the last 48 hours?

It's impossible to change sex. Gender is based on misogynistic and misandrist stereotyping

Reform, Restore and the Conservative right wing are the BNP with mildly better PR. The Greens and what's left of the Labour Momentum movement are just as bad.

Totally agree. Salt & vinegar in green is so very wrong and yes why does shampoo and conditioner come in identical bottles?

I'd go a step further re sprouts and banish Christmas dinner completely who really wants all that crap. Give me a sarnie and crisps anyday.

"Boomers need to shut the fuck up with the Coffee and Netflix narrative, not only is it trite and clichéd, our local garden centre café which is hellishly expensive is rammed daily with pensioners who supposedly can't afford to heat their homes"

You are aware that just because the Baby Boomers generation were born within the same rather broad period, it doesn't mean they all have the exact same resources.

The ageism is something. If you're lucky, you might get to experience that one day yourself.

(Not a Baby Boomer myself but really dislike seeing such spitefulness)
