    Their mutual inability to decuntify themselves is quite astonishing. I suppose Joey Barton is fulfilling his childhood ambition of being an utter cunt but Fox believes himself to be a good person despite the mountain of evidence to the contrary. Yet here we are again.

    Fox's defence appears to be along the lines of 'everyone has shared the pic, including the subject and I'm being victimised by 2 tier Keir for standing up to Muslims'.
    Without being arsed to check I think the upskirting laws changed not that long ago. Had he just deleted the tweet, apologised and generally not been a cunt I reckon nothing would've come of it bar a slap on the wrist / cheeks. But he seems determined to be a cunt / believe himself to be the victim. It's not that long since he had to fork out a few hundred k for calling people paedos on X. Maybe he's being bankrolled to be a cunt and doesn't care about the money, but 2 years in prison and ending up on the register is a rather different scenario.

    Yes. Yes it is.

    Is it easier if we just assume everything is Russian funded unless stated otherwise?!

    The things that are components of destabilising democracy, and imposing disaffection and division, to allow disruptive forces driven to facilitate control through financial imperatives, over societal will, yes. It's a sophisticated structure of control, but they've learned to gain primacy, not by philosophy, but by leveraging greed using cold hard cash.

    And with the collaboration of the petrostates, they control the bulk of the cold hard cash.

    Up to this point I thought this was about Thomas Tuchel.

    Unless it's a culture war distraction you agree with, apparently.

    Republicans in the 70s trying to win the support of evangelical christians.

    Or Lyndon Johnson signing the civil rights act in the 60s, depending on perspective.

    You are going to struggle to make valid observations, if you don't even know what it is.

    No, increasing the civil rights of society is not a culture war. Whatever Putin's bots tell you.
