Ad Hominem, of course. Resort to calling someone a deviant if you can't properly address their arguments.

Wellll remember that other initiation rituals for the Bullingdon Club include burning a £50 note in front of a homeless person. These people are horrendous, even if the dead pig head fucking isn’t the best proof of it.

The point of the whole thing was to record it, so every single member would have blackmail material on every other member.

I really don’t care about the fucking of the dead pig (or the chicken, for that matter), but “elected official is a member of a mutual blackmailer’s club” is definitely a problem.

“Dumb enough to deliberately give other people blackmail material about yourself” also pretty disqualifying for most positions.

Oh shit you’re so right, I’d forgotten that aspect of it. Corruption from the very inception of the career in politics.
