    So let me get something straight. In UK, a country that claims to be part of the Free ™, Democratic ™ west, a prime minister can be just appointed, without elections, solely on the base of being the last of the three other candidates. With the other two also being appointed without elections. Am I getting it right?

    • yeah, but the party was elected in a ““fair” and “democratic” “election”” so they can do whatever they want for a few years and Br*tish people have no way to remove them from power legally :):):)

      Hating minorities, with a twist now.

      Class solidarity is very much alive at the top, where skin color or race is not important. Staying in power and giving benefits to the rich is.

        And that’s the kicker, isn’t it? Unlike the current day proletariat, the bourgeoisie very much have class solidarity. And despite fighting with each other for control, they will absolutely join up to crush socialist movements

          That’s why to a certain degree changing the skin color or gender of the person doing the exploiting is not going to work. Great for women that they can now drone strike kids in the Middle East as well but that’s not going to make the world a better place per se.

          We need systematic change, not ‘ticking all the boxes’ capitalism.

            Preaching to the choir here, comrade. The tricky part is getting this through to others

              This is actually one of the few things that goes very well with most people when I talk about it. Many people understand the system is rotten.

    After centuries of incompetent Englishmen destroying India, we have the opportunity to watch an incompetent Indian man destroy the United Kingdom, its poetic.
