Lots to unpack here.
Wait, where's the part where they knock him out?

Look no further than the discrepancy between # of votes vs. number of seats for Lib Dem vs. SNP
We have exactly the same issue in Canada with NDP vs. Bloc . Parties with regional support are artificially propped up, whereas parties with diffuse national suppose get little to no recognition at all.
Hey don't forget WE HAVE HEALTHCARE (that is increasingly difficult to access nobody under the age of 40 has a family doctor lol lmao) and if you can't access it then we have MAID the government can just euthanize you like a dog 
In addition to what @Evilphd666@hexbear.net said, it's worth mentioning that when he was the leader of the Labour party, it was extremely active with the membership. It grew to roughly ~600,000 members, the largest political party in Europe. Their policies were things like nationalising industries, forcing companies to have employee representatives on the boards of directors, and other socialist-leaning things.
But, since the core of Western countries is build on anti-communism, the ruling class could not tolerate that. Corbyn was far too generous and refused to purge the reactionary elements from within Labour, and when he lost the federal election (in no small part due to sabotage from within his own party as well as the baseless smear campaign against him), Kier Starmer - a man who believes in nothing - took over, and then Corbyn was himself purged along with the rest of the left-wing elements within the party.
I have to admit, I did not know what this meant and had to look it up.
Apparently it's supposed to be on by default, but mine was disabled?
some schools and work places still do.
My gut reaction to that was "WTF that's bullshit no way they could force people to straighten their hair!?" and then I thought about it for 0.00005 seconds and was like "Yeah of course they would."
Fair comment.
Oooooh I get it now thanks.
I've never been so unenthusiastic about the Tories eating shit. Starmer's Labour will barely be any better, the man believes in nothing.
… what?

George Galloway wins sweeping victory in Rochdale byelection, saying ‘this is for Gaza’
(www.theguardian.com)
“Keir Starmer, this is for Gaza,” he said. “You will pay a high price for the role that you have played in enabling, encouraging and covering for the catastrophe presently going on in occupied Gaza, in the Gaza Strip.”
Moroccan hashish suppliers are refusing to sell to Israeli dealers in protest against the war in Gaza, according to a report in Israeli media on Friday.
The Israeli news site Mako cited several Israeli drug dealers complaining about the drop-off in trade.
"The hashish dealers in Morocco are not willing to sell us more hashish either directly or through intermediaries," said one dealer.
"They decided that because of the war they are boycotting us. Since the war, we have lost a lot of money. Tens of millions of shekels at least."
The outlet also quoted a Moroccan hashish dealer saying they were refusing to sell to Israelis over the war.
~~Biden's team seems to have tried to scrub this video from the web almost entirely. It used to be easily available on YouTube, but it was replaced with a shortened version which cuts off the part where he just goes off the rails about Xi Jinping. I guess then they can just blame it on his "stutter".~~
~~Anyway, I found it on an old Facebook post from a year ago, so enjoy, and save it to your devices folks lest it be permanently memory holed.~~
Ok apparently it is still available on YouTube, it was only showing up with the shortened version when I looked earlier.
In any event, still an amazing gaffe.
Edit: PolitiFact: Joe Biden described America as “the foothills of the Himalayas with Xi Jinping.”FALSE Five Pinocchios ! 
Edit2: I replaced the stupid Zuckerberg URL with the regular YouTube one as pointed out by comrade @dead@hexbear.net because apparently I don't know how to use a search bar
It was working just fine before, and then there was a big site update recently and everyone got logged out and had to re-authenticate. I am just now getting around to re-logging in on my mobile device, and I can't do it.
I've tried just "hexbear" as well as adding https:// and no matter what it just says instance not found 
Any ideas?

There a lot of little details in this picture that seem off, I dunno.
Amazing. Sportsball fans in tears.
Proof I'm not a lib:
Israel is in talks with the Democratic Republic of the Congo and other nations to accept Palestinian refugees from Gaza, Zman Yisrael reported on Wednesday.
The news website quoted an unnamed source in the security cabinet as saying: "Congo will be willing to take in migrants, and we’re in talks with others."
On Tuesday, Israel's Intelligence Minister Gila Gamliel said the "Gaza problem is not just our problem" and that "the world should support humanitarian emigration", according to Zman Yisrael's political analyst Shalom Yerushalmi.
The report comes amid a push by Israeli officials for what they call "voluntary migration" of Palestinians out of Gaza, which experts say is a form of forced displacement.
Hmm this seems kind of familiar but I can't quite put my finger on it 
Good cat. Nice cat.
