That sort of reductive thinking just lets wankers off the hook.

We're in a populist political era, enabled by the horror show of social media. And yet, in the real world, people are kind, people are funny, people are caring. Never let the media etc make you mistake the fact that the majority of people are good. It's so easy (done it myself too often) to say "people are just idiots/ladybits". However, most people are lovely.

I respectfully disagree. I don't use any social media and I can see that most people in this country are fucking idiots. They all think they're better than they really are, take football far too seriously and will watch/listen/drink/eat/fuck what anyone tells them to.

“Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.”

Welcome to Wrexham is great. It's pretty clearly geared more towards their American viewers in my opinion and interestingly enough there are one or two filler episodes, but as superstar owners they've done it right.

Clubs that have bought promotion to the Football League in recent years include Crawley, Forest Green, Salford etc. Wrexham are doing the same, yet I don't find myself with the same distain as some of the others because of how R+R have gone about it. They've truly revitalised a community.

Probably the most profound thing I've read on this forum for a very long time.

It's all just bread and circuses, isn't it?

No. It's not. NO.

I’d agree with most of this.

Alternatively

"Think of how kind and compassionate the average person is, and then realize half of them are kinder and more compassionate than that."

Got to love Coors!

In other news, I found out a few weeks ago San Miguel is a Filipino beer.
