But which one is propaganda?

Well, our office is paperless... Certainly won't be retiring any time soon, though. Might be made obsolete though.

Had to Google him. Impressive beard if nothing else

Yeah, we're a Swiss/German based group and the ethos is totally different. My ultimate boss in Switzerland is happy for us to make a modest profit so long as we provide a good service to our customers, treat our staff and suppliers well and maintain the reputation of the company.

Yeah, it's always made me scratch my head. Surely there would be more satisfaction in making sufficient money for yourself and then improving the lives of others.

Capitalist imperative - profit above all. That's why governments will eventually need to take proper responsibility for the welfare of their citizens as there simply will not be the work for them to do.

I think that in 20, 30, 40 years' time, automation will have transformed the world of work to the extent that there will be no alternative to something like UBI or some such scheme. Look at the prefab houses on the UKIP thread, or the transformation of car factories (I visited the Skoda plant...

Until the working class have learnt the correct pronunciation of the word "quinoa", I really don't think we need to take their worries seriously, dahling.

This will be the reality of Brexit, I think. Not an armageddon scenario, just a slow loss of influence and attractiveness to the outside world. The American Chamber of Commerce to the EU has just warned that a lot of US investment in the UK will be under threat as much of it was here to make use...

Surely if it was due to THM's political views, you, Paddy, Cyber, Frank, Johnny, Premier, Arklo and some others would all have been banned before now?

Has anyone on here ever claimed the Guardian to be completely objective? Everyone agrees they have a liberal-left bias. The point that has been made repeatedly is that it doesn't knowingly print outright lies and gives quite a lot of space for opinion that doesn't match its own editorial stance.

Thank God you were here to explain it to us!

Bloody hell. The tension is killing me. Can't wait to find out how I've been manipulated.

What's pissing me off is the psychiatrist husband, who's married his patient (yeah right!) and continually reminds her that she has a past history of mental illness and therefore everything she says and does should be treated with suspicion. Thanks, love.

I'm not sure you understand what "propaganda" means THM. Hint - it's not just things you disagree with.

I like the bit in bold. Well done.

Agree with pretty much all of this. I think the majority of people would use the time freed up by not being forced to work all the hours constructively and to the benefit of society as a whole.

Yeah, we discussed it a bit earlier in the thread. I quite enjoyed it but hope they keep the focus on the psychological drama rather than make it just another murder mystery. It takes a fairly common fear - that of being replaced when you have a bit of time off work - and turns it into a...

I proposed universal basic income on here a couple of years ago and was very politely dismissed as a head-in-the-clouds crackpot. Glad to see you now all recognise my genius. :Victory:
