Not to be pedantic, but the correct transliteration is Taoist, and real Taoists try to overthrow the state like the Green Turban Rebellion when they apply it to politics.

Untrue? The Jewish supremacist Israel lobby controls like 60% of all western politics and especially spineless neolibs like Starmer via several mechanisms: 1) Any charge of antisemitism is like The Voice in Dune and people just do what you say. 2) Straight up bribery via Jewish whites being the single best off category of humans on the planet in all human history. Waaaay richer and more powerful than protestant whites on average were when they topped the race hierarchy and far more concentrated via being a tiny minority. 3) Pedophile video blackmail from Epstein and other ops by Mosad. 4) Inertia. Neolibs LOVE inertia more than anything else, no matter how evil or absurd the inertia is, and Israel is the pinnacle of this mindset. 5) Buy in from evangelical Christians who actually want Israel to prosper on the premise that when enough Jews go there Jesus will final solution them.

Starmer's just flailing because the worst thing that can happen in their shitty, monstrous, neolib viewpoint is people go "Jeremy Corbyn was RIGHT and actually got more numerical votes than Starmer ever got even when he won" and WAKE UP. He's also still illegally sending weapons because he fears Zionist interests more than international law or the laws of the country he is literally the leader of.

Only watch OG trilogy pre-90's edits and leave the rest to your imagination

I predict Farage will strategically outflank Starmer on his left on strategic issues, but Starmer knows this. The animating principle of anglosphere neoliberal center right parties like Labour, the Canadian Liberals, and the DNC is to deprive the left of their most viable party, not to actually win. They are throwing themselves on a grenade to open space for their brethren center right parties like Reform or the Tories to rule.

Chicken tikka masala is actually British. It comes from British people complaining about not having gravy on chicken tikka, so they added a sweet, creamy gravy. Pre-WWII British people were all about curries (copious access to spices was a major upside to the empire). Worcestershire sauce actually comes from pre-made regional curry sauces all British pharmacies sold in the Victorian-Edwardian period (so for example there was once Shropshire, etc sauces that you could buy in pharmacies in each region).
