How does it feel to be a filthy bedouin who belongs to a lineage and culture which has never actually accomplished anything for itself? The only remarkable traits of your people are that they sit atop oil which white people pay you for and that you are dishonest and relatively dim witted. If western leaders weren't a bunch of jew addled traitors they would have wiped your people off the face of the earth and simply taken your oil rather than paid your retarded royalty a single cent.

Now we have a scenario in which a bunch of dune coons run around playing 21st century warlord with weaponry their stupid people couldn't possibly invent and shitting up life on earth for everybody. We never should have sold you so much as a Lamborghini let alone a fucking autocannon. Handing you sand niggers modern weaponry is like handing a small child a hand grenade.

If your people were worth their weight in salt they would turn their own lands into a place fit for human beings. Since they aren't able to, they flee to our lands and proceed to breed like rats while feeding their children with fraudulently earned income and welfare paid for by white people. You and your ilk will eventually outnumber us in our homes and our lands will become as shitty and useless as your lands. Cograts, you'll achieve dar es salaam but you won't have running water or a functioning power grid. You played yourself.

Shameful behavior from a deceitful desert tribe. Yet you feel pride. So strange.

Begone, rat.

It is human nature that when our view on something has previously been uninterested, ignorant and naive, we will tend to overcompensate in our efforts to redress the balance

My friend who votes Green Party (!) has sent me Guardian articles to laugh at for literally years. They are unironically what's making young gussies hate queers, they basically are the alt-right, and the Russian trolls, and the fake news. It's all a reaction to their Wokely World News bullshit, which is where the original Nazis came from, too (1920 communists being annoying, horrible, dirty threats to your livelihood.)

I believe there was a certain philosopher that wrote about how Industrial Society would make people neurotic and depressed and then have to medicate them to make them feel normal again.

We probably should have listened.

tfw you gotta medicate for the side effects of your medication

are you seriously trying to stigmatize drugs designed to increase the threshold of pressure society can exert on you? yikes

Calling Teddy a philosopher is very generous.

Calling you a human is very generious

Read another manifesto.

I already read Henry Potter, Marx and The Art of the Deal

The holy Trinity of rad cent

He is a doctor of philosophy

lol

Still better than Plato
-This post was written by the Diogenes gang

Yeah but was hermione there?

Hmm?

How about death eaters?

Keep your childish books to yourself, mmkay?

Karl Marx? /s

He and his brother were in a comedy troupe. They wrote a memoir about their time touring. It's a hoot.

Yeah Kierkegaard saw this coming from a mile away.

"Out socialized health care system is collapsing, so we need some sick people to avoid going to the doctor to prevent it from collapsing completely."

Most of the money goes to prolonging terminal illnesses so oldies and sickos can spend an extra few months in agony

Cut off money for anything other than hospice for people older than 80. Lower the age to 65 for people who smoke, do drugs, or are morbidly obese.

This but replace hospice with morphine

Lol, "pay 40 pct income tax your whole life, then when you get sick at 70 and finally need it, wait in line forever to get help too late, then please consider dying faster."

This is the compassionate alternative to American Healthcare.

You can have private health insurance in the UK too, retard.

On top of my 40% income tax? Wow, thank God.

Still a preferable system to possibly going broke owing hundreds of thousands if your insurance doesn't cover something, sweaty

Well I'd rather be broke and alive than rich and English.

Fair. They currently don't cure being British on the NHS yet.

Catching MRSA in hospital does the trick though

The US spends more per capita on healthcare than the UK. Yes, that is correct, the US spends enough of its citizen's tax money to set up and run a national health system, but also simultaneously requires its citizens to have private health insurance.

ah grauniad comment sections are fun

Pretty good article but the author doesn't consider that mental health conditions are on the rise in the West and other industralized nations/cultures due to social and cultural factors as well. We're medicalizing normal displays of emotion but we're also getting sicker because of things like social isolation, online social comparison, job insecurity, high expectations and attitudes towards failure, glorification and reinforcement of mental illness in youth culture, etc.

seriousposting also makes us sicker.

more than 40% of absences among the employed are attributed to mental health problems.
