Just saw this on an Insta post, Arab:

‘Health insurance is cool cuz you get to pay a bunch of money each month for nothing, & then if something happens to you, you get to pay a bunch more’

Applies equally to car (and any other form of) insurance. Another late capitalist scam generating trillions in profits each year for society’s wealthiest.

Lost Prophets are the only band I can think of that I have ever made a fully conscious decision to avoid listening to. For obvious reasons.

Actually, I haven't listened to Michael Jackson since that documentary either.

I can't think of a band I've stopped listening to because of political views. I think the only way that would happen is if they were creating material about them.

Just meant that I find it funny that someone has gone to the trouble to create a Twitter account dedicated to watching ‘grifters’

Don’t these people have proper jobs?

Not sure how “late” it is, Lloyds of London dates back 300 odd years.

Insurance used to provide a genuine service, albeit one with a profit to be had. Now, like so many other businesses the service has been cut to pieces to provide the profit above all else - all the worse that it is a legal requirement to use your car (for example). Money for old rope. Corporate cants.

Has anyone stopped listening to a band music because of their politics? I’ve always been a huge Pantera fan but can’t abide Down now because of Phil Anselmo’s mental right wing views
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I never liked Lost Prophets but I do feel bad for the band and their fans.

Some of the things David Bowie and Jimmy Page have done, are disgusting. But I can still enjoy their music. With Ian Watkins he really took that kind of depravity to another level.

It's that time of year of renewing my car insurance and as usual it shoots up about £200, biggest con artist industry in the world those lot.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Saw your post on electric cars - couldn’t comment as I’m persona non grata on that board!

I gave up my car ca 2.5 years ago - went carless unless work provided me with one. Im lucky in that I don’t need a car most weeks never mind days.

Pretty much the best thing I’ve done as a sacrifice. A lot of worries removed. I do still drive, and hire a vehicle when I need it.

A car is sitting idle 95% of the time - it’s an extraordinary waste as it depreciates. Never mind the other running costs like insurance.
An insurance policy that is based on miles driven surely cannot be far away with the telematics that’s on cars these days.

Anyway what I was saying is if you don’t have a car you own right now, you don’t need one most days, and don’t have a school run or anything else related with small kids to take car of..

Fk having a car of your own. Fractional ownership has to be the way forward.

Of course it’s likely to crash the economy if everyone does it, so don’t tell the world!

Politics doesn't really get in the way of enjoyment. I like Aerial Pink even though they are a Trump supporter. Some black metal music can be decent, despite members of the bands being alt-right.

I do think lyrically it would not appeal to me if an artist was singing about rightwing conservative taking points. But mostly because it would be hard to write about such stuff without sounding really lame.

Surely there must have been a consultation, you can't just make everyone redundant in a day

It really brings the notion of off-shoring to a new level.
An island nation hiring foreigners to crew their ships.
But they're not stealing jobs. They're being given them.
One question. Where are these ferries registered?

They’re not being made redundant. They’re being sacked and replaced with cheaper labour.
