Rof Wars!

Have been a few. Below are some I've highlighted- as well as results and prominent participants- and yes I'm putting off starting work!

1. The Brexit Wars- Remain v Leave. Leave wins- or does it? Legal Alien, 3 Dux and BREXITBREXIT.

2. The Covid Conflagration- Team Sane v Team Data. Team Data short term winners but now aren't we all Team Sane? Clergs, Chimp, Crypto.

3. The Trans Wars- Team Chill v Team Anna, think Team Chill has won this one. Chill, Warren, Anna, Rumpole.

4. Scottish Civil War- Team Clergs v Team Sumo. Clergs looks like she's won this for now.

5. Ukraine- Team Putin v Team Zelensky. Barry, Warren, Hotblack. Ongoing. Significant victory for Team Putin with the banning of Hotblack but Ongoing.

I would say Clive that you have got all these comprehensively wrong fella.

Risky lost it

I've been on every single winning size

One to add, if I may, the football lovers (RR, TSB, Davos, the lower league crowd ) v the football haters (Chinorder, laz and the oil crowd)

We will win that too

Football will survive

Clive getting these deliberately wrong or what? Team data won the COVID war and then team chin (team data rebadged) smashed the COVID peace.

Risky often gets things deliberately wrong RR

Team sane had to go to the vaccine and get a result, they would love it if they beat us, love it

But they didn't

The vaccines worked

The other big error here is missing out on calling the trans debate "the TERF wars" FFS cliverisky.

Clive you’ve had a mare here pal.

1. The Brexit Wars- Remain v Leave. Leave wins- or does it? Legal Alien, 3 Dux and BREXITBREXIT.

Wrong. Remain smashed this out of the park and continue to do so. The Leavers should be in gaol.

2. The Covid Conflagration- Team Sane v Team Data. Team Data short term winners but now aren't we all Team Sane? Clergs, Chimp, Crypto.

Wrong. The non-fannies (ie neither Team Sane nor Team Data) won by a landslide.

3. The Trans Wars- Team Chill v Team Anna, think Team Chill has won this one. Chill, Warren, Anna, Rumpole.

Wrong. Once again, the non-fannies (ie neither the anti-trans activists nor the TRAs) romped home - witness the relative nuance to recent threads and the reduced frequency of dog-whistles/abuse.

4. Scottish Civil War- Team Clergs v Team Sumo. Clergs looks like she's won this for now.

No idea, didn’t even know this was a thing.

5. Ukraine- Team Putin v Team Zelensky. Barry, Warren, Hotblack. Ongoing. Significant victory for Team Putin with the banning of Hotblack but Ongoing.

Team Z won this, I assume this is a typo on your part?

Lol interesting responses from all. I suppose I should say that my analysis- if you can call it that! Isn't based on my own views in terms of which side I back. Further comments below.

1. Agreed Brexit has been a total disaster, I was always against it. However, initially at least the crowing from the brexit heads was a win.

2. Suppose we're all Team Sane now in the sense that restrictions gone. However, willing to concede Team Data won. FAOD I was Team Data. #remember Maidstone!

3. Oh god can't believe I missed the Terf Wars - you're right RR! Was basing Team Chill's victory on the defeat of Anna. Think that's probably still accurate.

4. Parochial English!

5. TL think Ukraine is still ongoing. Looking good for Team Z. However, banning of Hotblack was a victory for Barry et al.

I'm neither "Leave" nor "Remain". I believe in re-joining the Single Market and free movement of people. Not sure I'm especially vocal about it though.

think Team Chill has won this one.

Hehmax.

‘However, initially at least the crowing from the brexit heads was a win’

seem to have quietened down on that score, now moved firmly to telling everyone to stop talking about it and SHUT UP SHUT UP SHUT UP!!!!!

Heh at FF. BREXITBREXIT still believes!

i assume clive means “on rof” and only cause anna got repeatedly banned and as they’re left with malfunctioning ai bot rumpole

in the real world team anna is definitely winning, to the massive detriment of human rights - florida just passed a law allowing the state to take trans kids away from their parents if they’re providing them with “trans-affirming” healthcare (known elsewhere as just healthcare)

Suppose we're all Team Sane now in the sense that restrictions gone.

Is it your recollection that Team Data position was 'restrictions must last forever'? That would be weird if so. Team Data became Team Chin the minute we had rolled the vaccine out and observed the enormous success in reducing death and serious illness.

Team Sane, if you recall, believed

There will never be a vaccine
There is a vaccine but it won't work because of variants
There is a vaccine, it works, but it is very dangerous
There is a vaccine, it works, but because I personally refuse to take it then restrictions haven't ended (for me)
Silence

Yes Chill on rof. Re RL agreed re Florida. But Team Chill has won in Ireland, also imagine blue states are Team Chill, red states Team Anna. Think Team Chill has won Scotland and is ascendant down south. See the protests yesterday in Oxford. Labour looking likely to win etc.

I was Team Data until the vaccine, then I become hardcore Team Sane.

Touche RR. Team Data for the win!

There will never be a vaccine
There is a vaccine but it won't work because of variants

well quite. I remember twotticus lashing out at all and sundry on points 1 & 2 in particular. It’s all gone quiet over there…

i’m also to call out on risky’s behalf that you left him off all the rof wars featured characters clive!

how quickly we forget

Lol my bad Chill. I suppose risky was involved in them all with the possible exception of the Scottish civil war- so would have cast too much shade on the rest.

Hopefully he'll return!

I heard that risky was quite anti scots indy bands at one point.

about 60 people a day still die of covid in the (and we are in a low season)

that's about as many as when lockdown #2 kicked in in 2020

so... what's that about vaccines working?

u just got bored

I haven't taken a vaccine and I am glad

sadly someone close to me did and was badly injured by it

lots of people died or are now dying because of covid restrictions

anyone who backed the covid policies is a fudd

You’ve also missed off the net zero “settled science” debate

The fact the debates took place at such length between intelligent people (mainly) is evidence the issues are not as straightforward as either side would admit

Funny how it is "of covid" when it suits you that way and "with covid" when it suits you the other. Bless you for persevering with this attempt to salvage some pride.

someone close to me did and was badly injured by it

it’s just a wee prick

Can someone do a venn diagram of anti-vaccers, Tories and people with low IQs?

Or maybe just draw a circle

Same same

There is a vaccine, it works, but because I personally refuse to take it then restrictions haven't ended (for me)

heh

Funny how it’s “of covid” when it suits certain people but just “with vaccine” when it suits them otherwise.

those are two completely different things barry

Barry was on the beers then

Complete logic fail

Brain freeze

Iq fail

I'm neither "Leave" nor "Remain". I believe in re-joining the Single Market

Dux any chance you could explain why you voted leave because "sovereignty" but wanted to remain as a rule taker in the single market? How would this 'improve' our "sovereignty"?

Heh.

Davos you thought the covid vaccines used in the UK had an inactivated virus and that people recently vaccinated were contagious at one point. Best not to mention iq in your circumstances m7.
