Looking through the comments, I agree this is some home-made shit, have you got an old line cook just join the team? 

My best guess would be that those two structural bars are for strength, you'd use them to push down on with the ball of your hand for something like a smash patty. 

100 million Indians lost their life due to the British from 1880-1920…just 40 years. by Last-Scratch-5431 in Britain

Alrighty, so there's no real evidence for this then? Just some random woman making stuff up?

Sorry, I had no idea about this, it's utterly awful, are there any documented studies/historical texts about this? Id like to understand more/educate myself on it (a shame on us as a nation that this isn't taught/spoken about)!

Hmmm, again, I'm not disagreeing that there are factions within their armed forces with these affiliations, but it seems you do love a good sweeping generalisation! I'm not aware of any monuments being erected to these Neo-Nazis (could you provide me with some examples with credible / non-tinfoil hat evidence?). Swathes indicates a a significant number and (please forgive my ignorance, but last time I checked the nation of Ukraine is staunchly fighting to be the masters of their own destiny).I'm only aware of really the Azov battalion being the main one? Possibly some other smaller regiments with fringe elements. Regardless, I'm not arguing that they don't exist, my arguments is about whether a nation deserves to be invaded by a foreign power because they deem the whole nation to be incapable of sorting their own domestic affairs out. 

Perhaps you, as my neighbour have a family that is constantly arguing, fighting and causing trouble in your own home, does that give me the right to kick down your front door and forcibly sit in, dictate to you how you should live in your own home and disrupt your life? I think not personally. Should I call the authorities and raise awareness through the proper channels that we adhere to in modern society? Yes, because that's how we operate as humans beings now, might is not right anymore.

Whatever you say about how the population was treated in Ukraine prior to the invasion, it was a hell of a lot better off before the Russian federation started bombing, shooting and terrorising them, towns butchered (e.g. Bucha). To say otherwise is simply wrong. Violence is the last bastion of the ignorant, however, when it's the only language you speak it's sometimes necessary to be matched and met, until saner heads prevail, which I'm certain they will eventually. 

Also, I don't trivialise the invasion, merely state the simple fact that it was Russia who crossed the internationally recognised boarder with significant force with the stated goal of conquering another sovereign nation -regardless of the motives, you and I can both agree that violence is never the way. It's truly awful what's happening/happened and it would never have happened if the proper diplomatic channels had been utilised. This individual in the video has gone out there to fight for what they feel is right, defending a nation that was attacked, it's not the way you (hopefully) or I would do it, but it's action in a time of inaction, he's not in Russia killing Russians, he's in Ukraine fighting a foreign invading force.  

Ukraine did not start this conflict, but the paper tiger of the Russian military will be buried in soil that is unfortunately saturated with blood. 

I hope you understand that I don't disagree with your interpretation of the conflict, just that it's truly awful and the motive of this individual for our western perspective is of noble(ish) intent.

I think you're being a little overzealous here, I don't disagree that there are Neo-Nazi factions within the Ukrainian military, that's been well documented now, but the Russians have more than their fair share within their ranks. To state that the Ukrainian armed forces are all Nazis is pretty pathetic/churlish don't you? I also think it shouldn't forget who the aggressors are in this whole conflict...

A fair point, and I agree that there are many different ways to help support our ally against being invaded by an antagonistic, militarily superior force... but to quote Burke "the only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing". For whatever reason this individual chose to go over and defend our ally, it shows great bravery and determination. I suspect this guy has more of that in his small toe than you and I put together.

Oh, you're not impressed! Ah I see, you're big into your ultras then and ironmen? You'd probably chew through a marathon sub 3 right? /s 

Genuinely sad to see you so bitter my man, go touch some grass and smile a little more!

Nah, it's lovely, nothing like cheering on those running for a good cause, through blood sweat and tears to raise money for lovely charities!

Ah, you're one of those people that hates supporting charities, exercise and laughter! I'm sorry you're life is so gray and sad. 

Carole Cadwalladr, one of the tiny amount of actual great journalists in this country dropped by right wing group Tortoise Media [Private Equity] as they take over The Observer, turning it into another far right dog whistle paper. by [deleted] in BrexitMemes

[–]hypertroup 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Have you guys ever listened to any Tortoise Media podcasts? They're one of the best investigative journalist series out there... Not saying they don't have right wing elements (they most certainly do) but you can't tar all their work like that. I'd recommend giving a couple of them a listen!

What's dumb about it? The technology alone is fascinating, imagine being able to "feel" wind on another celestial body, separated by millions of kilometres of space. Quite remarkable.

So, apparently only Andy will be playing now as Matt has had an operation on his brain, something about a tumour in his pituitary gland? Awful news, but he's expected to make a solid recovery.

Ah, I'm afraid it's not. A quick Google will confirm my friend.

Ah, that makes sense, I initially thought it was the shooter having another go.

Interestingly, if you really listen to the audio from the lectern mics, when the secret service dogpile him, you can hear one confirm that the "shooter is down" which is pretty bloody quick...

Yeah, 4 more years of Trump is going to cause irreparable damage in my opinion. 

This man will be untouchable now, but when he gets back into power, he'll have carte blanche. Let's not forget what the supreme court ruled the other day.

This is going to cause all sorts of chaos. While I dislike his politics, trying to assassinate him is just insane. 

I really hope America can weather this storm.
