      Reminder that they already responded

      The Government has no plans to repeal the Online Safety Act, and is working closely with Ofcom to implement the Act as quickly and effectively as possible

        Doesn’t stop us from continuing to push. Since they responded we got 300 000 more signatures.

          Wouldn’t it be sick if y’all just responded on voting day?

          Here’s the pitch: Do you want to prevent horrible nonsense shit from happening? Do you like money? Are you okay with people in general? Fucking vote.

              The game has been rigged.
              Voting exists to stop you changing things.
              It makes you believed you solved the problem
              when you’ve actually accomplished nothing yet

              The voting is game is lost before it began
              with psychometric micro demographic targetting
              they can convert money into votes with simple manipulation
              it’s just a matter of which money interest push more
              on their preferred option

              but neither of the two choices is on your side

              None of the choices in democracy are working for you

                So main issue with this comment is the UK system allows for more than 2 choices.

                  Yes there are many choices, very similar degrees of ultimately the same thing. Same thing here in Canada.

                  Often it’s the business elite party and the “business elite but pretending to care about the people’s interest party” and that second one is also split so the straight up business elite party has a chance to win. Followed by series of do-nothing statistically insignificant, flavour-text parties just for the impression of diversity. It’s all a little circus to give you the idea the population is in control while being completely out of the equation. It only really serves to dissipate their frustration and make them believe they’ve already done everything they could so we don’t get guillotines in the streets.

                  Make no mistake Fukuyama is right, this IS the end of history, there will not be any democratically elected changes unless the powerful decide change is in their interest and will maintain or increase their power.

                  Nothing will change until the power is physically taken away from them and history restarts.
