How This YouTuber Almost Became Mayor Of London

thank you all for helping to take London to the Max.

also Max is right about cardboard not being as sustainable as it is often made out to be... while it's true that cardboard degrades much quicker than plastics, when looking at the whole life-cycle assessment, the production of cardboard actually uses much more resources (especially energy & water input) than most plastics. The same is true when it comes to recycling it... so, yeah sorry Laurence but it seems no real thought went into the "sustainability" claim there 😂

[@KingBobXVI]

@@Luixxxd1 - I think you're ignoring the context of the statements - Fox is accusing Fosh of misusing his platform, which he's allegedly doing because "you're a narcissistic baby" - attributing the alleged failing on the insult is what makes it an ad hominem. Meanwhile, the comments about Fox seeming drunk all the time aren't used to claim Fox is "disqualified", you added that yourself. Like you said, ad hominem is not equal to insult. "You're wrong because you're dumb" is an ad hominem, but "you're wrong and you're dumb" is not. Max is not making any further claim based on the statement that Lawrence seems drunk.

Some info can be known to the constituent, and yet some cannot be so ? So.... I don't really read the papers any more, but I read the reports and the analysis from the universities. Like LSEs reports... those ones are far more accurate, and focused on the balances, and why.. but you have to be a good general all rounder to get what IS going on.

In the face of constant alarming and negative news all over social media and tv, I think we all certainly need a little bit of childish fun. I think we should be careful to not underestimate the value of humor as a society, and I love this channel because of that. I hope Laurence's hurtful words didn't get to Max, and I also wish the best to Laurence since he probably had to deal with hard realities when running for mayor

[@crash-ry3eq]

I love how he made multiple ad hominems before getting offended by an ad hominem

The correct term in politics would be "tired and emotional". However, Fox might be too self-absorbed to understand that one.

[@jpaugh64]

He couldn't admit to being _mad!_ His whole plan was to share how mad he was with his followers. Like, why couldn't he just own his emotional experience right then?

[@foxinabox5103]

@@jpaugh64 plus he shouldn't be mad or feel threaten to someone who runs as mayor as a "joke" (i know its not the full intention, but you know what i mean). Fox really said "you're not worthy of mayor" and max literally told us to not vote for him.

[@YuTEM]

@Sensible have you seen how he acted? I'm wondering how YOU didn't even see that acting like that is just plain immature, like you just want them to shut up but you don't want to listen if they actually have something to say

[@YuTEM]

@Sensible fair point, but i think that we shouldn't try to assume everyone will have that type of mindset of restraining our urges to not yell at someone because not everyone will have the same mindset. Some more aggressive and this is youtube we are talking about, a place where some comments just make you lose yout faith in humanity (as an over exageration)

@@stvdagger8074 : I did not follow this quite so closely.. but this is intriguing... such is life. So... Count binface, is a famous "meme" type character, cos I have filmed somebody in the Cambridge are who busked inside a bin. And this man, is actually a good reputable musician to a certain level, and he was made famous by somebody who came along and got him onto FB too. That is way way way before this whole "Cambridge Analytica" thing. Ok, so fine... Silicon Roundabout obviously have created SOME influences to how we use and embrace social media in the UK. But his style of "social"... Well.. I have to give it to him, if that is what he proposed. Cos I know that Labour is kind of not strong either. As they use outside media.. and the media sector itself is kind of also blown out of the water though, isn't it ? It has collapsed on and of itself. So.. how does it all work now then ? Count Binface has been quite controlled politically is how I see it. He got his info from FB, as which is what most constituents used.. so we have to START somewhere !!! The various British papers on FB as well.. well.. he basically did literally reflected what people wanted, and not to join an actual "platform outside the UK's remit" is he ???? If government ministers is tied to nurses.. then it means that we are going to nationalise the states' employees.. and it will take us down the direction of an actual federation though... and not necessarily the various soveign states. And wasn't the entire EU was all about that too ??? Do we become a Republic, or do we remain as a soveign nation. I cannot even bring myself to vote barely !!! Are we swapping money for land?

[@lewisjevons52]

I love how when Laurence Fox's vote count is announced there's no disappointment, but a flicker of satisfaction, in his face. It's almost as if Max has succeeded in getting into Laurence's head and his priority is now beating Max. You may not have got the votes to beat Laurence, but you sure as hell got into his head and that in itself was a bigger win.
