    Shouldn't this be in politics Fred?! :p

    It is mono focused, yes - it comes down to one central factor; being homo sapien. The thread of the conversation started about, and continues to be, environmental factors impact on choice to attend a fascist hate march and to what level those environmental factors justify that attendance. And...

    The levels of surmountability are proportionate to the desperation. Of course the more desperate you are, or the more sold to you are, or the more you have riding on your position, the harder the journey is. That's exactly the point I've been making about vulnerability and what level of loss...

    I'm not dismissing them, I'm saying they are surmountable/influencable and we have agency over them. How we act within that agency is choice.

    I agree with all of that except one part - having/not having the ability to be aware critical thinking and emotional intelligence is a thing. Twenty, maybe fifteen, years ago I would have accepted that. But now, information and analysis is everywhere - on TV, in computer games, fitness tracking...

    I'm not, I'm saying that the "so so much" is about personal responsibility and value choices.

    That's exactly my point, and is my underlying response to @SissokoWasGood (BoL) & @thfcsteff (both brilliant replies - thank you both). In the information age we all have access to those skills in our pocket. It's a choice not to do so - but all life choices come down to values and, more...

    I agree with the principles you've stated, but not the get out clause for those people. We live in the information age - there is no excuse anymore for going down those routes until it is either what you actually believe or are comfortable to accept. Everyone has the tools to be different in...

    Scottish Football

    It is 752. Apparently Hearts started it by giving Celtic a similar amount at Tyncastle And there is nothing in Scottish football rules about allocation. Celtic and Rangers have a 5% agreement. I guess it makes sense, lots of tiny clubs in the middle of nowhere and long distances, so you don't...
