It’s really a testament to how bad my country is doing that I can look at someone like Boris Johnson and think “you know, the sad thing is an incompetent who thinks the rules don’t apply to him would actually be a step up.”

Say what you will about Boris playing Prince Prospero while the rest of the country was supposed to be under lockdown, at least he wasn’t actively trying to undermine any and all strategies to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. And, at least Boris Johnson has some understanding of how badly he’s shit the bed if he’s resigned. When Trump was in that position, he sent an angry mob to fuck up the Capitol.

That's a weakness, they'll never achieve victory for the cause if they lean on the crutches of decorum, tradition, and shame.

Which is a clear plus for the Brits over the Yanks. Maybe in three more years whoever they pick as leader will resign yet again for failing to get anything done. Unless, of course, Britain comes to their senses and finally votes Labour.

Court Rules Against Jewish Couple In Racism Lawsuit

Tennessee judges have dismissed a lawsuit filed by a Knoxville couple who alleged that a state-sponsored Christian adoption agency refused to help them because they are Jewish.

After first agreeing to help them, Holston in January 2021 informed them it wouldn't enroll them in foster-parent training classes because "as a Christian organization, our executive team made the decision several years ago to only provide adoption services to prospective adoptive families that share our belief system in order to avoid conflicts or delays with future service delivery."

Basically, the three judge panel decided that the agency’s refusal to enroll the couple in foster parent classes wasn’t anti-Semitism, because there were other agencies that would accept them.

In practical terms, this means that a restaurant that posted a sign reading ‘No Jews Allowed’ wouldn’t be chargeable with hate speech, as long as there’s a restaurant in town that DID allow Jews.

Disgusting.
