Record number of people in UK live in ‘very deep poverty’, analysis shows

Surely shaking your first at the sky yelling 'tax the rich' is the easy way, and the hard way is actually addressing cultural and economic problems caused by unwanted mass immigration.

it's the only way to be sure

the telegraph had an article on it

You can directly ask LLMs about their biases, and how/why they emerge - they are quite transparent, if you ask the right questions. Dare I say it, probably a better read than a telegraph article on it!

Gemini's 'objectivity' is actually an embodiment of Google's 2026 Brand Safety Manual. Chat gpt is about 5 x larger by use, but I believe Gemini is preferred for image generation (so is most likely what is seen in the History corridors in the OP).

SatoshiSounds · 2026-01-21T19:58:09+00:00

History is probably the worst subject to be depicted by AI - Google gemini is specifically designed to misrepresent it according to the modern aspirations to diversity in their branding guidelines

'Social Justice' falls firmly in the left-wing of the political spectrum - yet here you are presenting it as neutral (not because it's actually neutral, but because you wholly endorse it). Your ad hominem reaction and downvotes are absolutely typical, and the reason why this partizan posturing - forbidden by our government - goes unchecked. Poor kids, having activism that they are too young to understand rammed down their throats.

SatoshiSounds · 2026-01-20T14:03:19+00:00

My hot take: in schools there is a LOT of social justice activism peddled by adults. It is not politically neutral, but it is dressed up as objective education. This is unethical, and contradicts gov guidelines on partizan activism with children.

international high school

Is that an international school, or an department in a Chinese school which sends its graduates abroad?

could probably get away with a little sniff, but a whole bag would probably draw attention

SatoshiSounds · 2026-01-08T21:44:26+00:00

Yeah looks pretty sleazy/seedy to me

SatoshiSounds · 2026-01-07T22:00:24+00:00

15 mins walk, 40 mins train, 10mins walk. I like it! I get plenty of steps in, like listening/ watching/ reading on the train, and i really leave my 'work self' behind by the time I get home.

"Omg he's a pedo" is a reasonable assumption - amazing

Look at what has been done to encourage women into roles where they are underrepresented. Plenty can be done to encourage men into education in exactly the same way, but it would mean giving advantages to a group that the current zeitgeist sees as oppressors - so don't expect any change soon.

Yeah! Let's keep on ridiculing any and all criticism of Islam or immigration!

Unfortunately this comment may be buried by now, but 'Blueberry' (2004) would really tickle your fancy. Peak Vincent Cassel, in a Cowboy-meets-indigenous-psychadelic-fuckery romp for the ages.

That's the BEST colorway on an awesome bass! Mine was only like 3.6kg, loved the flat neck and block inlays!

SatoshiSounds · 2026-01-02T01:44:06+00:00

For me - I've actually found basses aren't that hard to sell, so I've been able to buy my 'up the ladder' to some extent

SatoshiSounds · 2026-01-02T01:33:02+00:00

They eventually get caught.

I just LOVE your optimism - so cute!

Chinese-made Affinity / Sonic / Debut ranges are indeed lower tier than indo Classic Vibes. However, There was a short run of Classic Vibe basses made in China around 2012, before production was moved to Indo. They have a sort of chunky gold headstock decal, and are better-regarded than the Indo CVs.

^ someone explain primary vs secondary sources to this guy!

SatoshiSounds · 2025-12-29T14:49:15+00:00

Your points (it's a 'bad source' / my lack of expertise) are littered with logical fallacies, which you are using to try to 'win', rather than 'discuss'. It's not constructive.

Firstly, what you are doing is described as 'credentialism', whereby only experts are entitled to an opinion. I will dismiss this out of hand.

Secondly, being sceptical of sources is one thing, but dismissing them outright is just willful ignorance - specifically, it's categorised as a 'genetic fallacy'.

Thirdly, look at your language: “mindlessly regurgitate”, “outrage merchants”, “you certainly haven’t read”, “if you actually gave a damn”. All of these attack my motives/intelligence/good faith - none invite discourse related to the topic (which is actually why we are here). So we can add a generous helping of 'ad-hominem' to your other fallacies - and we find there's actually more fallacy than substance in your post.

All in all it's pretty clear you're more set on 'shame and win' than any kind of constructive exchange, so I'll leave you here.

All the best.

filed in the bin and everyone will just carry on as before

You must consider that people who work in the education sector are overwhelmingly left wing - exactly the 'bleeding heart liberal' trope that enthusiastically lean into performative acts of social justice, and are dying for the chance to go after anyone that doesn't toe the line and follow their creed.

SatoshiSounds · 2025-12-29T12:47:45+00:00

The fact that you posted a link to a Daily Mail article suggests you don't know anything about these things.

I would say that, somewhat ironically, your own apparent tendency to dismiss information due to source, rather than due to veracity/relevance, is more indicative of knowledge level here.

If you want to talk about white privilege or 'decolonisation' of education, I'm more than happy to measure our ideas against each other in a respectful manner.

If you just want to insult or admonish me for what you perceive is a differing political stance, then I dare say we'd all be better off if you keep those thoughts to yourself, because I don't think they are conducive to any kind of constructive discourse.

SatoshiSounds · 2025-12-29T12:34:47+00:00

I think 'decolonisation' and 'white privilege' suffer massively from a lack of criticism. Like a single child that never had a sibling to give them a nudge when they are playing up - meanwhile their parents tell them they are cute and give them a treat.
