We don't know the details yet. But, if this stabber was a white kid, we'd all be talking about mental health. Non-white kids of immigrants can also have mental health issue. But the worse of the country jump straight to racism, blaming the culture of the immigrant. If this lad grew up here, he has been surrounded by our culture. If there is mental health issues, it's our fault it wasn't caught in time. If he went mental for cultural reasons, we can't wash our hands of that either. If we want assimilation, we can't other people.

But what of those not elected or in public office? Farage for example. He stopped being a MEP and never has been elected or appointed since. But he is still out spouting lies.

Nope. The vandalism is by the troll farms and a weapon of the quiet information war waging against reality.

Maybe they mean pigeon to make it sound like he isn't able to be a seagull manager. Like he's trying to be a seagull manager, but only managed pigeon manager. A quiet insult.

There no hate speech laws this breaks? He's literally calling for violence on a group of people.

The problem with mob justice is lack of due process. It frequency gets the wrong person as it can't be reasoned with.

This isn't an excuse to not recycle. The problem is not the very idea of recycling, but that things aren't made with it in mind. Everything should be designed for reuse, repair and recycling.

Or any other service, that like Twitter, is a closed for profit service of a multinational for profit corporations.

"Demo magic", it's everywhere. Always has been, always will be.

I've been using the internet since 1996. Newsgroups is about all that was good back then. Oh and email.

Chrome has become the new IE6 and Google the Microsoft of the internet.

Today is a bit of a low point, but I don't think there was any perfect time.

Flash was a major issue during a lot of the "golden years" people are romanticizing. ActiveX was also, and still is, an issue for some parts of the world. Silverlight as well to a lesser extent

If there were any golden years, they probably were when the big three had similar market share between 2009 and 2014. But it was clear what was happening over those years, Chrome was eating IE and waning FF.

Yes apps are bad news.

Schools should help by exposing kids to books the kids are likely to want to read. Which are not always works of literature.
