BF2S Forums Where are all the whiny peaceful "Enlightened" European now?

never seen downton abbey and i won't see the crown either. why would anyone want to watch a drama about the exact same shit that has been played out in the tabloids, week in, week out, for our entire fucking lives? OMG i can't wait to see princess di on television again. i almost forgot about that. JFC.

I've never given a shit about the 'Royals'.
A modern democracy doesn't need them, certainly not this shit shower.

]Belgian police arrest 25 men including MEP as ‘sex party’ breaks curfew. A Hungarian MEP in Viktor Orbán’s rightwing party, spotted fleeing along a gutter to escape police raiding a “sex party” above a Brussels bar, has apologised for breaching Belgium’s lockdown rules. József Szájer was one of about 20 people, mainly men and including at least two EU diplomats, who attended a party held near the Grand Place on Friday evening.

so much going on there in such a short news ticker.

I have never been to a sex party but I guess in some lines of work you need to attend at least a handful of Eyes Wide Shut parties.

the guy who was caught was one of the influential members of hungary’s christian, trad-values far-right.

what is it with nazis all being into gay gangbangs? fascists seemingly always have this creepy sexual undertow. obsessed with family values and upholding the nation but slithering off to have gangbangs in filthy brussels.

err nice victim blaming. ever wonder why closeted gay people might act that way?

that book is one of the biggest bestsellers about the AIDS crisis. don't you feel clever for reading a little bookie wookie on a complex subject?

the takeaway of that book is not 'gay people are to blame and wouldn't accept help from white, christian society'.

you might need to sharpen your analysis a little bit.

An interesting part of the AIDS crisis in America in the 80s was many of the gay politicians voted against doing anything about it so people wouldn't think they were gay, the straight ones, including hard-core christians, did far more.

this sounds an awful lot like suggesting or apportioning blame on a very facile analysis of the situation.

why might gay activists be wary of privacy laws or the government categorizing them as homosexual?

why might public figures who rely upon public opinion and success at the ballot be worried about being outed as gay?

why might a minority group which are censured, viewed with suspicion, treated unequally, etc, sometimes adopt seemingly counter-productive and harmful attitudes in their interactions with wider society? even to the point of refusing help?

none of this is even remotely hinted at in your post. you seemingly like to revel in the 'irony' of straight white saviours being batted away by tricky gays.

i haven't read it, no, but i've read a lot on the AIDS crisis generally. it's not exactly a recondite or recherche topic.

you've read one book on the subject and presume to be an expert. haven't you re-read the same book multiple times?

you're like a schoolchild, satisfied that he's read his one book for the term.

is your hot take on the AIDS crisis really that the gay community made it worse for themselves and deserved their lot?

that's not the craziest thing in evolution. when you think about it, so many things about our own make-up are more astounding than the origin of viruses.

like how 'one day' eukaryotic cells became a thing, due to endosymbiosis with mitochondria. our entire lifeform came about because two completeyl self-sufficient types of cell basically decided to merge.

Again, I am not a creationist. I am just saying that some people, most notably internet atheist/atheist book writers/etc. shouldn't be so dismissive of the complexity and weirdness of life that would make someone skeptical of the argument that a lot of this weird stuff just happened naturally "because science" .

Circling back to viruses for a moment, we only discovered them in 1892. Humans have been on Earth for hundreds of thousands of years without any idea such things exist. Do you accept that there might be more things going on around us at any moment that we don't have the ability to measure or detect? I don't think someone is a religious fundamentalist for being willing to accept that there is more to life than what the hard sciences in the year 2020 can explain. I think that is even a more open minded and worldly position than 🦜 whatever R. Dawkins says.

Also, what is cooking? Is that what happens when you put a waffle in a toaster and Jesus makes it brown for you?

It's funny that it's come to BoJo himself to negotiate the withdrawal deal. You know you're truly fucked when the least competent man in the room is asked to take the wheel.
