The Elephant in the Room

People talk about China as the elephant in the room (regarding #Corbyn and #Trump) but we cannot forget the awful numbers of Chinese (and British) victims of imperialism nor the sacrifices the Russian people made during WW2.
To talk about Tiananmen and forcing women to have abortions one may as well talk about Abu Graib and forcing women NOT to have abortions. But that road only leads to imprisoning war criminals.
What would happen if we arrested John Bolton et al? Why not arrest Trump for trying to overthrow an elected government (Venezuela)?
Why not point out the seriousness of Trump saying he doesn't admire Jeremy Corbyn (who was elected the leader of the Labour Party)? Because there isn't an authoritarian leader, coup-monger or despot who Trump hasn't at some point said "He's a good guy, I admire him", at least as far as Russia, China, the Philippines, Venezuela and North Korea are concerned.

What would you do?

What would you do if you knew you had a hundred years to live? Perhaps you wouldn't care. What if you knew you had a hundred years to act before you knew society would collapse?

The Pope and the Catholic Church to embrace contraception 2. Ditto the American Right 3. The UK government to ban people from driving a petrol-driven car on a Sunday 4. The UK government to give free bus travel to everyone under 25 and the unemployed 5. Governments around the world to replace coal powered methods of ge

UFO

Time to debunk the extra-terrestrial hypothesis? Yes. Let's use our imaginations and consider non-ET explanations for this phenomenon. 1. UFOs are an aerial plasma phenomenon similar to ball lightning. This explains why they appear to follow aircraft and apparently interfere with electronic devices. 2. UFO phenomena are a result of individuals witnessing top-secret military technology. By deliberately associating the phenomenon with aliens, the government can discredit any witnesses and keep any technology it wishes out of the public domain. They could even have access to free energy but believe this would disrupt the economy if it were ever revealed. By promoting the Extra-Terrestrial Hypothesis, the government and the corporations that support it stay in power at everyone else's expense. Presumably this is a CIA-style psychological operations programme. 3. UFOs are intelligent entities in of themselves. The abduction phenomena could be a kind of vision by the abducte
