The UK government is taking a hard line when it comes to online safety, appointing what it claims is the world's first independent regulator to keep social media companies in check.

Companies that fail to live up to requirements will face huge fines, with senior directors who are proven to have been negligent of their responsibilities being held personally liable. They may also find access to their sites blocked.

Remember the movie V for Vendetta? Ya know, the movie where England becomes a Right-wing authoritarian dystopia?

Man, how fricking stupid does that movie seem in 2019?

well, not right wing, but it's definitely sliding off the "free" list.

Can't wait until the Bond movie that has him attacking the US.

People who think that movie is some portrait of right wing authoritarianism need to watch the movie again.

England will be majority Islamist by the middle of the century. They are doomed.

The series was a somewhat hysterical reaction to the Thatcher years. And it says more about Moore, and his unfounded perception of the world, than anything else.

The 80s did spark the rise of the surveillance state in the UK, and that may be the solid point that he makes. What he didn’t predict, and was perhaps incapable of understanding, was that it was the left who would prove to be truly tyrannical.

And that had always been true in England. It was the left who wanted to use the government power to snuff out traditional life, and make sure everyone was a good citizen.

Does this mean I can’t make fun of, and mock middle age women ridiculously posing, trying to reclaim their glory years, and living through their children?

That’s bullshite.

Basically, they are eliminating any thought or speech that doesn't align with their new muslim values.


Englishmen have lost. They are dead. No culture, no future. Thanks for playing.
