Graham Linehan arrest

[JamesWales]

Seems to be near universal criticism of this. Will this be the line in the sand that clarifies where we stand on free speech? Armed guards greeting a comedian arriving on a plane for a couple of tweets feels as Orwellian as it gets?

Aside from the arrest I think hes got himself involved in a nest of vipers with the arguement between his side and the trans lobby

Both factions as bad as each other , very respected as a writer but I think hes unwell with obsession , shame

It's not about individuals, the goal is to shut everybody up through self-policing through fear.

Does your missus know you are completely off your cake or do you manage to hide it ?

Interesting. What happens when they have the population under control? What's the end game? Controlling people takes a lot of work, time, effort and intelligence, it isn't something that can be done easily. So, what's in it for the people who will end up controlling us?

How do they do it in China? It seems to work pretty well over there.

That's quite a vague answer. You're deep into the 'Control' thing, so you and others on here who think the same way should try and attempt to outline how control is being implemented and what things will look like in the future.

I remember that mask wearing during COVID was talked about on here as being part of this 'control' theory. Which made no sense, as masks made all the facial recognition cameras useless, which were also being used to 'control' us.

And then the government said we didn't need to wear masks. Not to be put off, the government was intending to control us with another pandemic, monkey pox or bird flu were mentioned. But we didn't get a pandemic in the end.

15 minute cities was another. As if the UK, which can't even fill potholes, was going to rebuild all their cities.

It's all very odd. If i was as concerned as some are over being controlled, and lets be honest about this, it's as much as a problem for me as it would be my family etc, then i wouldn't have a Bank account, Passport, vehicle, Home, debt etc. I wouldn't use the services, wouldn't register with a Doctor or go to the Hospital if there was something i needed sorting out. I would never have an online presence, where everything we say floats around forever and can be used against us. I wouldn't use Supermarkets etc. Yet, Seemingly, everyone i know who is convinced that we as a individuals are being controlled are doing some or all of those things. I don't t think that they're that serious about it, in all honesty, Maybe the thought of being controlled is just an extension of their own frustrations.... Right, i'm off, back to my cave......
