They don't even listen to their paycheck
I'm constantly amazed at the total disconnect between paid "experts" and reality. "Experts" don't listen to anything.
Extreme example on BBC's coverage of their own total defeat.
All of their experts were saying "For the sake of democracy our party needs to stay in power so we can call a second referendum on the Brexit question. The first referendum was invalid because it came out wrong."
JESUS. Yesterday's election
WAS THE SECOND FUCKING REFERENDUM. And it came out even MORE decisively against the government's wicked satanic desires. The experts, WHO WERE PAID TO DISCUSS THE RESULTS OF THE SECOND REFERENDUM, were calling for a SECOND REFERENDUM.
It's like driving a car and bitching that you want to be driving instead of walking.
Selfish sidenote: For me the best part of the British election is Ann Widdecombe as MEP.
Widdecombe is a STRICT truth-teller. She has zero patience for idiocy and shared lies, and never wastes time hedging idiocy. Plain truth in every word. Widdecombe is also the
ONLY POLITICIAN IN THE WORLD who understands criminals and prisons. All other politicians have a
PERFECTLY WRONG DYSUNDERSTANDING of the subject.
Later for clarity: 'Hedging idiocy' is an opaque phrase. What I mean is this: If you respond to idiocy by denying the accusation, you are participating in the shared lie. "I'm not a racist" instantly acknowledges that the accuser has a point, that the accuser is on the right track. You have merely started the trial with an innocent plea. The trial will end up with your destruction. Farage and Widdecombe have learned how to jump past the false accusations, escape from the boundaries of the shared lies, and dig into the real question.
