United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Good. Obedience is a concept out of the outdated model of feudalism.
Um... yes, I think that is technically and historically correct, but...
I'm personally a big fan of laws. I think good laws and the teaching of virtue is an important part of the construction of a good society.
So what happens when a lot of bad laws are passed, and the legislative system only listens to 1-5% of the population ? Should obedience still be lauded ?
If legal methods of reforming those laws are available, then they should be adhered to. Otherwise, we're talking about a revolution against a corrupt government, which is a different matter entirely.
Thanks for your perspective, I hadn't considered that. Have a lovely day!
