I broadly agree with Zack Polanski here. I'm glad he's taken a stance.

I'm not sure about "no state has the right to exist", but whatever.

That's a bit extremist. Jump straight to the hoards of invaders waiting to shit in your bed (let's not talk about how suspiciously specific that is). That's the type of fear mongering being evoked by certain cults purporting propaganda, currently.

Why not instead imagine your boarders are just bigger, and there's just more people in your community, to work as a community together, pooling resources and looking after each other.

People are all just people, one pool of people on the other side of boarders, aren't magically malicious, just because they're on the other side. People aren't born evil and out to get you (as long as you don't count the 1%).

If people are desperate for a bed to shit in (seriously, wtf are you up to in your spare time...wait, actually, don't tell me) why not give them one. Maybe hoarding resources was never a good idea, and if we all have enough beds to shit in, we can get on to doing the good work, parties.

Will there be a bed at the party? I won't come if there isn't a bed. I might need to take a shit later.

General community for news/discussion in the UK.

Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.

Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
