Re: The worm that turned? – politicalbetting.com
Farage’s whataboutism on the BBC & 1970s is clever, but ultimately nothing more than a smokescreen to try and cover for his unwillingness to acknowledge or apologies for his teenage edgelordism. For all the faults of the 70s, the BBC was not the one bashing out the Horst Wessel song on the regular. What’s weird about this… -
Re: Is Diane Abbott right? – politicalbetting.com
We shouldn’t have to choose which offensive to condemn. Too many here and elsewhere, particularly the edgelords of the left and right, seem to think that condemning one criminal enterprise requires one to downplay the other. Both Putin and Netanyahu are committed to eliminating an entire national identity and the… -

He's just being an edgelord. Ignore him. -

Re: America and the UK are standing shoulder to shoulder when it comes to not defending Israel
It is logical and a wholly personal answer to a deeply difficult moral question. But then you are not a Shock-Jock Edgelord who can throw out pontifications predicated on a wilful misinterpretation of the facts surrounding yesterday's vote. If the poster in question is a US style anti abortionist that is his business, and… -
Re: Would Labour had an even bigger majority without this front page and strategy by the SNP?
PB, you've gone a bit weird lately. I mean, I can cope with the endless frothing about random islands in the Indian Ocean. I can cope with the endless hyperbole around a boring but functional government being the Worst Government Ever(TM). I can even cope with the genocide apologists. But, the board's edgelord-in-chief… -
Re: The challenge for the Conservatives – politicalbetting.com
Frequently. I am not angry. far from. I've spent the morning with my son as we climbed a local church tower, and he got to ring a church bell. You see, spending time with your children when they are kids is great. Abandoning your kids when they are kids is less so. I can only imagine how someone who abandoned his kids as… -

Re: Condoning Trump won't be helpful in the UK
The reward system in online debate is such that you get disproportionate engagement if you are edgy and contrarian. It’s been the case since the dawn of the internet. Perversely it inhibits actual nuanced debate because the “normies” spend all their time arguing with the zany ideas of the edgelords and don’t have the… -
Re: It has been an inauspicious start to the campaign for the Tories – politicalbetting.com
Not much distance to travel to the edgelord populist right for him. -
Re: Some Farage bets – politicalbetting.com
“Small boats Stopping Sultan” sounds better. Why can’t they be more imaginative? Or the “Fend Them Off At Frinton Fuhrer” Or “Intergalactic Edgelord of Lo, The Dinghies Have Stopped Assisted by the Operational Summit Antipope” -
Re: Brexit, the UK’s prohibition era? – politicalbetting.com
I often imagine when you post your edgy, anarchist adjacent posts, that you are really a retired corner shop keeper, a little podgy, who dresses like whichever of Wallace and Gromit is the human. You spend your weekends carefully driving your showroom condition Honda Accord out of your wooden garage behind your former… -
Re: I agree with Tory MP Alexander Stafford – politicalbetting.com
I think he was just being an edgelord with a “well, actually…” comment on a risqué topic rather than trying to defend Haley’s comments. -
Re: Sir Gavin Williamson speaks for the Tories and the nation – politicalbetting.com
Normally I'd think you were joking but this thread has got so strange I'm not totally sure... I don't believe there are any genuine satanists. Christianity grew because of the promise of eternal life (in a good way). Why would someone who genuinely believed sign up for eternal torment? I do believe there are a lot of… -
Re: Aborting Trump – politicalbetting.com
I don't think you need a grand theory of "delayed reaction/realisation to changes bought forward by governments of both left and right" to explain Musk's behaviour. He's acting like a 15-year old edgelord; he's been sucked in by a process of social media radicalisation. The problem is a system that gives so much power to… -
Re: Coming to a Lib Dem bar chart near you – politicalbetting.com
I do agree a little that regarding Muskas boring is a bit odd, but on the other hand you obviously do care what people think on this because you keep asking why people think the way they do on it! My take on him is please focus on rockets, not being an edgelord. That seems a better use of his talents. -
