    kvs, what an ideal or a healthy society should be in your opinion? You criticize the state of western society a lot but I don't recall you saying how things should really be.

    A 1958 interview with Aldous Huxley.   The man was on the ball.   Dictatorship does not need to be cheesy brutality.   It can leverage human mentality and that is what we see in the west and most
    of the world today.   People think they are free, but dance to the propaganda music of the fake stream media and get distracted by BS like tranny toilet privileges instead of how much money
    their employer pays them.

    In terms of drugs, it has been the food profile that has served the purpose.   Since the 1970s we have had the high carb low fat hysteria.   Dosing up on sugars and carbs (same thing as
    sugar as far as the metabolism is concerned) is a form of pacification and result in degraded mental function.    Saturated fats are important for proper brain function.    Polyunsaturated processed
    oils do not have the same microphysical properties and when used for deep frying or margarine are trans fat poisons.    People who have problems with the officially sanctioned diet (food pyramid)
    note improved mental acuity when going to a more natural diet that is not carb-centric.    So in addition to the dumbing down of education, propagation of nonsense via fake stream media propaganda
    (training the masses through Goebbels style repetition of inanity), we also have the pacification of sheep through diet advice.

    Back in 1958, westerners could project all of their phobias onto the USSR and the commies.   But they were not immune from totalitarianism themselves.

    Don't even try to pretend that sex justifies a female $50,000 per month in alimony. Also note how alimony is always assigned to some ridiculous
    standard of peak income. So even if the man goes bankrupt he still has to pay $50,000 per month to the crotch spreader.

    Perhaps more men need to talk about women being the weaker sex... needing support after relationships end... do you think front line femenists would take the bait?

    The picking the top income to set the number is just normal western business practise... every CEO wants to get paid what the CEOs of Apple and Microsoft get paid.... that is just normal... and also why privacy only applies to income levels and parking spaces and other perks of jobs that are already too well paid anyway compared to the people on the floor actually doing the work...

    Western society really is in decline.
    It seems every advert today in Britain has to have a black, an Asian and a homosexual.
    Its no different to how Hitler used to have blue eyed blonde people in adverts etc.
    Same formula in light entertainment with presenter "quotas".
    And if its kids on the news in schools its one black, one white, one Asian.
    The media is riddled with the (LMAO) "oppressed group" of homosexuals.
    And I counted 60% of "experts"/presenters on BBC news as black or Asian, bearing in mind they are supposedly just 1 in 7 of the population.

    Womens "football" is given a high profile on the news. But NO ONE WATCHES IT!! Neither men or women actually like it!
    The Establishment's arrogance is breathtaking. But the real discrimination in Britain isn't race, sex or sexuality. Its social class. You can see that how upper class idiots earn millions  and talented people of normal backgrounds are doing shite like working in call centres. And you'll NEVER see someone read out the news in Britain if they don't talk with a plum in the mouth private school accent. To me the political system is a joke. Its just one gang of likeminded muppets. With  a few outsiders used to discredit alternative approaches (eg Diane Abbott!!)

    This is happening all over the West. But people in Britain seem particularly dumb and subservient.
    Why are people so subservient?

    A company can pay some CEO millions of dollars per year. But some divorced shmuck is not always a millionaire and even if he is the alimony is set high enough to drain his millions. This was
    the case with Robin Williams who took his own life not just because comics have a propensity for suicide, he was divorce raped.

    Feminists have achieved legal control. Such rulings are Kafkaesque abuse of jurisprudence. But if you listen to 3rd wave feminists whine, they are all oppressed by the patriarchy.
    Clearly their definition of the word "oppression" is not the dictionary one. What I see is legalized extortion of male assets to feed lazy, entitled parasites who think that participation
    earns them 50% (and even 100%) of the man's assets.

    Why are people so subservient?

    I think it is a blend of physics and biology. Entropy dictates that mediocrity is the norm. So the IQ (hard to define but real) Gaussian peak is shifted down and it has a rather large spread.
    Humans may have evolved through natural selection in an anti-entropic way, but there has been no evolution essentially over the last 50,000 years. And certainly none
    in the last 200+ years. It also looks like humans are a species of pack animal like Chimps and other primates. So there is a genetic component which makes the
    majority into sheeple with a few alphas leading them around. The entropy induced low IQ cannot fully explain the subservience. The apathy is a feature and not
    a bug. Few people really think for themselves and I have a hard time trying to imagine what sort of mentality they have. The notion of turning on a TV and getting
    my opinions from fake stream media news makes me cringe. But most people appear to never get past their teenage mental development.

    I agree that social relationships are reducable to physical quantities. Explained by thermodynamics. I am not sure entropy explains this present disorder. But think that if any organism spends less energy than it obtains from environment. Then it grows in number. Reducing the preyed upon organism or food source or class. To the point of extinction. This organism then adapts itself to fill the niche. Or perishes. Allowing other organisms to fill the gap.

    There is direct analogy to modern economics. Capitalism versus communism. The former describing the situation, where exploitation takes place. The later, where symbiotic relations exist. Or a balance between populations.

    But is nature or the world capitalistic or communistic? I think that if natural relations were capitalistic. Or destructive. Then no matter how many times, life evolved on Earth. Then one organism would displace another, until none were left. But we do not see this.

    And if natural laws were communistic or symbiotic. Then we would not see extinctions. Any evolved organism, would survive until now. Yet we see that 99% of all life on Earth has become extinct. And I am not including extinctions as a result of major climatic conditions. But during stable era.

    What we see in species evolution is a tree of life. Continuous evolution into species. And continuous extinctions. I think that the creatures on this planet, tend towards both sides. The oldest surviving species exist in near symbiotic or communistic relationships with the environment. Like Ants. And the capitalistic destructive species, have the shortest existence. Sabre tooth Tiger. Humans have even a shorter lifespan on planet Earth.

    Nice rant that gets to the core of the entitled prats who are the cannon fodder for PC totalitarianism. Coddling is not good for children. And that is not
    the same thing as advocating abuse. Pandering to child vanity is grotesque.

    Wow. So a female is entitled to a theoretical career and money from that career which she "gives up" for marriage and child rearing.
    I have questions for the c*nts in this UK court: is the man entitled to the money he would not have spent on his wife and her children
    if he had chosen not to marry the female? Why is this BS privilege being afforded to the females? What makes them more special
    then men? Equality? What equality.

    Speaking as a lawyer, you have grossly misinterpreted the legislation via that video. It works both ways. Let me explain...

    *Example: let's assume that the male is the predominant home carer that gave up his career (or didn't have one to begin with - it doesn't matter) to raise the family, with the woman the main financial provider. If the relationship breaks down, then the male is entitled to be to be financially remunerated by the female and also provide child support until the children reach the age of 18 (where applicable). The settlement will include all assets including the consideration of future pension entitlements etc. This example is in the most simplistic of forms but you get the picture. There are so many different permutations it becomes quite complex, emotionally draining, time consuming and expensive.

    Same applies to same sex and de-facto relationships btw - where a country's constitution facilitates such relationships. Most western nations do.

    The UK has moved, much like most other countries in recent times towards a no fault approach where mediation is the preferred method of resolution, thus saving on costs and court time. The mediation process will normally conclude with consent orders signed by both parties and submitted to the responsible court with jurisdiction.

    Child access is also split evenly where applicable though there might (usually) be different circumstances that results in a different arrangement.

    * I am not a UK admitted solicitor however UK family law is pretty consistent with other western nations.

    No fault divorce already gives females alimony and 50% or more of the combined assets during marriage.    This is a new precedent setting ruling
    which you completely misrepresent as established process.   It goes beyond no fault divorce laws to assign a new category of compensation
    based on a "what if" scenario.   But only for the female.   She is somehow able now to claim some potential revenue for a potential job
    she would have had if there was no marriage.   Clearly this ruling is Kafkaesque abuse of jurisprudence since it treats the compensation
    from asset splitting and alimony not being sufficient.   So the wife of Bezos got her billions from asset splitting even though she did
    not earn a cent of it, but this kangaroo court "ruling" adds her gender additional rights to dig into a man's pocket for hypothetical losses.

    Don't insult the intelligence of people posting here by pretending this is within the scope of existing law or precedent.   This is a completely
    new interpretation of female "rights" during divorce which is total nonsense.   Personal decisions have final bearing on claims.   Females
    can't have their cake and it eat too by both choosing to

    1) marry

    2) have children

    and then cop out when they are not happy with their decisions.   This ruling is utterly ridiculous since it ignores the existing over-compensation
    of females at the expense of men (e.g. alimony on top of asset splitting; if it was "no fault" divorce, there would be no alimony.   Alimony is
    by definition fault based and makes it male fault divorce) and pretends that the female is somehow being conned into marrying and having
    children when she decides to make those choices.    If the state feels women are too oppressed by marriage and child bearing, then it should
    cough up the money itself to "compensate" them.

    My question to this kangaroo court stands: if the female can claim "what if" compensation, why cannot the male claim the same sort of
    compensation?   Marriage is not a slavery contract for females where men extort their efforts.   The male pays the bills if the female is
    not working.   Do these kangaroo jesters. and their apologists like you, really think they are credible with such BS?   Clearly this ruling
    should be applied to males since under the wife's "what if" they have a corresponding "what if" where they do not pay those bills.

    When I married my wife she was infinitely wealthier than I. Had I divorced her, I would have been just as legally entitled to the same proportion as she would if we were to reverse the scenario (thus your question is again answered!). There is UK case law that backs this up. Dyor on the matter.

    I can only suggest that you read the UK Marriage Act in order to gain a better understanding as your assumptions as posted are not only wide of the mark, but crucially have no legal basis. If I was to not have a career but was the principal home keeper, I would be able to argue for similar compensation, it is gender fluid, you seem to think that only a female can do this - you are incorrect to do so.

    Also, try and use use examples pertaining to one jurisdiction; you have jumped from the UK to the US.

    If the above is not clear then let me state again for you. If you married a woman or man who was of stronger financial standing and you decided to divorce her/him, YOU WOULD BE ENTITLED TO A PROPORTION OF THE ASSET POOL even if all you brought to the marriage was the shirt on your back.

    Remember that every matter will have its own unique legal argument but each side will use case law to define their argument.

    I can recall a matter where my wife represented the husband...it got so down and dirty they were arguing over the quantity of fuel in a domestic fuel tank out the back shed and the petrol price at the time of purchase. Crazy stuff, he did well out of it and walked with a 58% 42% split in his favour. Our firm walked away with about 70k AUD. Such is life.

    There are no good solutions in divorce. Especially when children are involved. Since all post divorce arrangements, depend on voluntary cooperation of both parties. And since by definition this does not exist. Then no formal or legal arrangements can work well in practice.

    The problem is to stop divorce in the first place. But such conditions, will need radical reform of economic and social conditions. That are now I think impossible.

    Well actually court orders in most western countries are enforceable and has very little to with voluntary cooperation tbh. Loss of child access and court appearances are usually enough to make people comply.
    Though in my experience it is only the very bitter that don’t do what is best for the children. These people lose out in the long run but thankfully they’re in the minority. Some people are just too pig headed or don’t really understand the power of the court system until it’s too late. Maturity or lack of is usually a contributing factor believe it or not. Some people are just so bitter it eats them up also. Sad really.
    You do make a poignant comment about the involvement of children who at times get used as pawns, this is always heart wrenching tbh especially when your client is a complete and utter fuckwit.
    You have your religious beliefs and that is fine, they have no bearing on me or my profession however and divorce is a very viable option for people that need to get out toxic relationships or where they simply do not share the same feelings they once did.

    Twitter conveniently censors all of Biden's child molestation videos in the name of "saving the children". We wouldn't want proof
    of his pedophelia to confuse the voters in an election. You can bet your last penny that if these were videos of Trump then
    they would not only not be removed, they would be "trended".

    Do you live in the U.K. or in Australia?

    I believe the U.K. has by itself at least a couple of legal jurisdictions, while Australia might have a few (one for each state?).

    There could be some differences between the separate jurisdictions with regard to their respective laws.


    Of course, the statute law might be the same everywhere, like it is the case in Canada.

    I have resided in Australia for the past twenty yrs.
    You are correct about different jurisdictions within Australia however family law is federal (state or territory laws cannot deal with family law matters, there are other types of law where this is the case also).
    The UK has different ‘countries’ so to speak and some of the laws are specific to those regions as passed by their respective legislators - government. Like Australia however there are certain types of law under the crown system and would be the highest court in the land.
    When I lived in the UK I was not a solicitor but was working in foreign affairs for my government, I am therefore not completely up to speed on the UK legal system. Some of our UK residing members would be best placed to comment and indeed would be a better authority on it than me.

    The sad part is knowledge.... when you argue with a stranger there is not really much they can say that will really upset you, but a wife or partner you have lived with for years and knows all your weaknesses and vulnerabilities can really do some damage with just words or just actions.

    Most of the time women demand getting 100% custody of the kids it to hurt their partner... and a little lie like he hit the kids or abused them in some way... like denied them dinner if they didn't eat their vegetables... which was not abuse when I was young... that was just normal trying to get me to eat well... but in a court of law it can be made to appear to be abuse.

    If you need alimony and child support to raise the children doesn't that suggest you are unable to bring up the children without help... yet you want 100% custody....

    It is like that Jim Carey movie Liar liar... nothing to do with the kids, and any technicality to get your way is fair game... dirty pool. angry

    These days 100% access to one over the other is very rare unless there are very clear reasons to do so. The issue of false allegations (particularly around sexual abuse) to secure access creates a very complex situation. The truth more often than not emerges but not before a truly horrendous amount of damage, carnage even has occurred. I know of one case where the wrongly accused commit suicide - devastating outcome.

    An extreme example but the investigations by police, social services and medical staff is lengthy, costly and have an almost a debilitating effect on all involved - including the legal teams. Thankfully such examples are rare but nevertheless occur.

    Family law is never straight forward...most solicitors will tell you that nearly 50% of their time is counselling! Fighting over the estate of a dead relative is nearly as bad and is fast becoming, dare I say it, BIG business. Human behaviour, Christ on a bike.

    You can't evade this shit even if you choose not to get married, because if you live with a partner more than a set period of time you are essentially married and if one partner then wants to leave they get half of the collective assets.

    Recently in New Zealand they changed the rules so you only can leave with essentially what you brought in to the relationship... have heard of a few guys that lost valuable gun collections because their now ex-spouse wants half the value... just really nasty shit... and they don't care about the money... they just want him to sell the things he likes because he didn't pay her enough attention so she cheated on him...

    "No fault" divorce is one of the biggest human rights abuses of all time. It is a distortion of the concept of "no fault" as with car accidents. In the case of car accidents there is not
    litigation but equal coverage including for serious injuries. In Canada it is possible to litigate in some provinces but bulk of the coverage is no fault. But divorce is something else.
    The assets of the male before marriage should clearly have no role in any divorce split. But that is exactly what you have with this Kafkaesque law. That is divorce pillage, pure and
    simple. How are these pre-marriage assets of the man related to the female? No fault means that neither party is penalized for divorce, but you can see that this is not the case
    and the man is penalized by having the female get a windfall through claims on assets she never helped to accumulate.

    In some US states it is possible to sign prenuptial agreements to secure unrelated assets. But in other states the courts have decided that such agreements are null and void.
    Even if such agreements are possible, the mere fact that they are needed shows that the divorce laws are broken. But asset splitting is not the only problem with the misnamed
    "no fault" divorce laws. The female gets alimony on top of her asset grab. So she is rewarded twice at the expense of the man. Alimony is pure obscenity where the kangaroo
    family courts set it at some capriciously high level based on a one time peak family standard of living. So the female gets an absurdly high salary for doing no work from the man
    for life even if the man becomes poor and loses his job. Alimony is never set at some minimum such as $10,000 per year. It is always above the average income level. That
    is why men commit suicide or run off to other countries. It is a f*cking yoke and to call this "no fault" divorce makes Orwell cringe.

    If it was really no fault divorce, then neither party would get anything like alimony. Only fair asset splitting would be involved, namely the assets accumulated after marriage and not
    before. Child support is another problem but I have made my case.

    The rot in the US entertainment industry is terminal. Also, "white privilege" is a phony construct designed to oppress normal whites.
    All sorts of degenerates and sodomites are promoted and can act above the law, but supposedly people like me who earned their
    degrees with actual studying and effort are "unfairly advantaged". Maybe because people like me do not go around abusing other
    people and pretending to be victims. Real victims are basically never heard. But today we have fake victims using their fake
    victimhood to oppress normal people.

    Fun fact, I visited my former Canadian university research institute back in February this year (snuck in just before the corona closures) and talked to my old supervisor who's gone up the ranks a bit in the meantime.
    We chatted a bit about the university and current problems they're facing and there's some hilarity in there.

    Since the federal government now mandates representative boards for government institute, and the university is technically a government one and not a private one, it has to figure out how to get certain %'s of indigenous, black, brown, asian, gay, purple, extraterrestrial etc on every board in the university structure. It's a nightmare.
    Also the hiring in many cases has a defined pro-women pro-"minority" bias. However, there's none of them applying, or at the very least the ones that do are worthless xD So many hiring rounds for associate professors and teaching staff gets delayed/derailed, at least in the departments that try to keep a certain level of professionalism.
    And oh boy his stories about kids demanding more and more coddling xD
    The best thing is that the guy is a pretty liberal man and one of those guys who wouldn't even think of hurting a fly, but you can just see his exasperation at some of these things.
