Rakosi posted:Why is it ever bad to politicize anything considering almost everything is political in some way. Also "the personal is political" is antithetical to everything that the right believes. Except when it helps them sell newspapers via spurious anecdotes.

Sure, the papers may have constantly implied there was a job stealing Syrian gypsy rapist on every street waiting for a free benefits mansion, but have you considered he was probably just mental and would have thought these things anyway? I'm Rupert Murdoch.

It's too much relying on experts doing measured analysis with statistics and reports and probabilities. If we all just listened to our gut then there's be less of this spur of the moment violence. (I like the new thread title.)

For too long, we have been a passively tolerant society, saying to our citizens: as long as you obey the law, we will leave you alone. It's often meant we have stood neutral between different values. And that's helped foster a narrative of extremism and grievance. This Government will conclusively turn the page on this failed approach - can we now please start applying this to extreme right groups like the national press?

But he knew the average person didn't get how it worked, and his anti-AV campaign was about spreading confusion and convincing people it was too complicated to understand. A statement like that is just laying the ground work and encouraging people to vote out of ignorance

It says a lot about her that when I went to her Twitter, she is extremely anti-Trump. Though I'm totally expecting someone to tell me it's because of some actually sane thing he said.

Well, immaterial I guess. He was already a bastard for countless other reasons.

I will always burn with white-hot fury over the AV referendum. When I went to Louse Munch's twitter it was all "THE BBC ARE RAPISTS AND TRAITORS and they lied about the political motivations of Mr. Deathtotraitors K. Freedomforbritain, Esq"

Yeah but he doesn't really think that (well, y'know) and I don't think anyone would take it at face value. But for all the people unsure about what this 'alternative vote' thing is, and all the people who'll be confused by the misleading/lying NO ads, it's appealing to their egos and giving them permission to dismiss it out of hand. Just a variation on the 'I'm a normal guy like you, you should do what I say' shtick

My favourite Louise Mensch moment was when she decided marrying a secular Jew meant she was an expert on Judaism and antisemitism, then proceeded to call the father of modern Zionism an antisemite. Closely followed by the time she tweeted proof that Corbyn supporters were searching for "Liz Kendall Jew" only for it to turn out to be a screenshot of her own searches.

He's actually might deliver on his massively racist platform rather than just using it to advance his own political career. Also Hilary is an established neoliberal. Status Quo over everything.

Hahaha. Wow. I stand by that 100%. Nazi's a terrible people who we should shun, but going beyond that is more effort than they deserve having spent on them. Obviously arrest them when they break the law, but beyond that leave them to their petty hate.
