Things become easier when you realise what Object Oriented Programming originally meant.
"OOP to me means only messaging, local retention and protection and hiding of state-process, and extreme late-binding of all things. It can be done in Smalltalk and in LISP. There are possibly other systems in which this is possible, but I'm not aware of them."

Over the course of history, dictators, autocrats, & authoritarian Govts have regularly tried to avoid the rule of law.
Authoritarian & autocratic leaders always seek to avoid inconvenient legal constraints & judgements.
Even considering ignoring #ECHR rulings shames Britain. 🇬🇧

'That's the face of the Nice Guy Empire, also known as the rules-based int'l order, also known as the US-led world order. It presents the facade of humanitarianism & democratic ideals, but underneath it's just as savage & bloodthirsty as any other empire in history' ~ @caitoz https://twitter.com/caitoz/status/1544505840819847169

You can't just "make Brexit work", @Keir_Starmer, when it’s clearly doing such damage
Pretending #Brexit can be positive is dishonest, plays into hands of Govt & undermines national interest
Instead, admit this is about damage limitation - don’t falsely claim to “make it work”

What kind of barbaric, uncivilised, intolerant, backward-looking, unethical, anti-human-rights, antidemocratic tin-pot authoritarian #neofascist regime would actually introduce new laws to "objectively justify" explicit discrimination against black people & Travellers?
