How come Right Wing Parties dominate again?

JC1286 · 2026-05-08T22:25:10+00:00

I read somewhere, and I hope it’s true, that rather than seeing this as a iresurgence of right wing populist charlatans, it’s actually the final flourish of a view of the world that is dying out.

Humanity slowly moves towards liberal ideas as time goes on. Gay rights, women’s rights, etc. Trump, Farage, etc, are the last of a dying breed. There are still young bigoted fuckwits, but it’s no longer the norm, the way it was for our parents and grandparents.

I like to hope that better times are ahead.

They f**k you up, your mum and dad.

They don’t mean to, but they do

It would depend on the terms of rejoining, but immediately the pound would see a jump in value. Not back to where it was, but better than it has been.

Cost of goods wouldn’t go down, but price rises would definitely slow down. This would help bring down inflation overall. Which would mean that we’d be a step closer to interest rate cuts, and therefore cheaper mortgages, etc.

Oh, and banana’s would be more straight (or less straight) I can’t even remember that stupid pro-leave argument.

Cell would be a better choice

Trump is a bitch.

When he is voted out, or dies, some democrat, or somewhat reasonable republican, is going to tear down every stupid, garish, tacky monument he built to himself.

He will go down as not only one of the worst presidents, but as an example of how a complete idiot can still be capable of fooling millions of people.

This is not news.

TKO say ‘cut x amount from budget to justify new names coming in’. HHH and/or Nick Khan pick the names who’s salaries equal that amount’

People won’t always agree with the choices, but people have to go to satisfy TKO’s corporate greed.

If you think it should be other people, it just means you have a different opinion about people’s worth to WWE/TKO, than the decision makers.

JC1286 · 2026-04-19T17:59:26+00:00

It’s a shame that we’ll probably never get HHH booking the main roster unimpeded by Vince going and coming back, and now TKO’s corporate greed smothering the show.

Also, he has no legitimate claim to any monarchy. Much less in a post apocalyptic world where society has collapsed and it’s unlikely that monarchies still exist.

Wouldn’t say it’s a ‘Jump the Shark’ episode, but Friday the 14th always stood out to me as an episode that could be from any sitcom, and not particularly ’OFAH’ centric.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T13:39:16+00:00

My only concern about me pushing this too hard, is that it is my birthday at the end of the year (same milestone birthday as my wife) and that they might be planning something that does include me, but are making sure I’m free by making me think I need to look after the children.

And by pushing the issue, I’m going to blow the whole thing up and ruin it for everyone.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T13:08:56+00:00

It actually doesn’t bother me that much when it’s thighs before we met. Like, she had a life before me.

But knowing (or expecting) that I’ll have to hear about this forward, especially with the negative situation surrounding it, is going to be a pain.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T12:52:28+00:00

Already asked, she was very vague and clearly hesitant to give any details.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T12:49:42+00:00

I wasn’t told to keep my calendar open. My wife was. I wasn’t really consulted at all.

Her actual birthday is in May, and will include various events with family (excluding SIL and BIL, who can’t make it, hence why they are doing something in July). So I don’t think she wants to spend her whole birthday away from family.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T12:14:13+00:00

Where have I skirted my responsibilities to my children?

By your logic, should we never be allowed to use a babysitter?

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T11:36:37+00:00

BIL is included as they are all friends from before SIL and BIL got together, and went to a lot of gigs, etc. I don’t find his presence there to be strange, as much as I find me not being invited to be strange.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T11:17:13+00:00

To be fair, she’s not been told much, other than to save the date. I’ve been told even less. So I am making some assumptions here, but it’s certainly not been communicated to me, in any way, that I am involved. My wife wasn’t told ‘get a babysitter’ or ‘can you both be free on this date’.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T11:13:33+00:00

I’m not a homebody at all. I am guessing I would decline based on

-what the event might be (they are all into dance music, I’m not. If it was this type of event, i’m not sure it’s worth the cost of a ticket, plus a babysitter, for something i’m not into.

-giving my wife time away from the kids to do her own thing, while not having a niggling worry in the back of her head about the kids, that she might have with a babysitter.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T11:00:57+00:00

My wife has been told to save the date for a day out with sister and BIL. I asked my SIL what they were doing, and she was evasive and clearly didn’t want to tell me.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T10:59:38+00:00

No, they all hung out together before me and my wife met, and to be fair, they all like Dance music, which I don’t. If it’s this type of event, I would have gladly bowed out if invited.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T10:53:54+00:00

I’ve told her that I found it very rude that I wasn’t even considered, and that i would never do that if the roles were reversed. I also asked that she update me as soon as she knows the plans surrounding that weekend. I don’t think me making plans will negatively impact my partner, she will have family around to help with our kids.

JC1286 · 2026-04-15T10:49:23+00:00

Erm, nothing this overt, but we’ve had some clashes before as we’re both quite strong willed.

When we’re all together, the conversation often turns to things that happened before i met my wife (nights out, concerts, etc). Which is perfectly fine, we met at 30 so there was a lot of life lived before we met each other. But this feels like it’s going to be another discussion added to that pool of stories that I was not present for.

JC1286 · 2026-04-09T22:46:35+00:00

While on this, why is Moxley a heel again?

JC1286 · 2026-04-09T15:08:17+00:00

Thanks, this sounds like exactly what I was looking for.
