First of all, lol Secondly, until I saw this I never noticed just how much May looks like Gerald Scarfe's drawings of Thatcher:  and realise why so many Tories voted for May, and why they continue to not do the decent thing for both the country and their own careers. They think she's back and are terrified to cross her.

I'm not sure why but I get the vague sense of red flags wrt big john mac, and not the good kind. Are we getting mincome mcdonnel or the one that is comfortable in a room of terfs? He could be fine. I definitely worry that we're asking a lot when we hope there are two baby boomers that aren't enemies of humanity, though, and Thornberry is part of that weird post-60 subset of the baby boomers that are significantly less terrible and rich. I want to be represented by people that will actually be alive for the bad bits of climate change. It should be a visceral terror that burns fear from the soul and leaves only bloodlust and the drive to revolution, not a bad policy problem.

mumsnet has been a frequent site of e-campaigning in elections going back a while, a politician posting on there a few times to drum up some support ain't some new thing and it is not indicative of them being a terf. it is indicative of them being... a politician. especially since most mumsnet users are not actually terfs, or don't seem to indicate that they even know what a terf is or could be. the site gets a lot of users, and the terfs are largely restricted to the 'feminism' section'. that's like saying all goons are deep into collecting firearms, because SA has a subforum for people who own firearms. it's a big forum for what is mostly casual chat and drama. there are absolutely terfs on there, mind, and they should be shouted down at all possible avenues. i would just slow down before you accuse every poster on there of being a terf and a lot of associations with the site as being a pro-terf conspiracy, since a lot of stuff on there is discussing who max branning is sneaking into bed with or some minor grievance with their child which has been blown way out of proportion. e; to illustrate the perceived importance of mumsnet to people who probably aren't terfs, you can find frozen goods targeted at kids (and adult children) in supermarkets with "mumsnet approved" labelled on them. the site has some reach and influence with an audience who can be hard for male politicians to reach - mothers. that is why they sometimes do a spot on there. it is publicity.

if they keep having meaningful votes do they keep getting more and more meaningful or does the meaningfulness sort of plateau off somewhere around "extremely meaningful"?

Yeah it's so blatantly manufactured as a melt response to Harry Leslie Smith, except they had to over-egg the pudding and go "Oh yeah also I'm a black woman" because in their minds black women are the most privileged people on Earth.

Are you kidding? He was making transphobic dogwhistles, the spectator loving loved it. I'm glad Corbyn can moderate this stuff and I think the leadership needs someone like John McDonnell nearby as a radical voice to say poo poo Corbyn can't, but I don't want him as leader ever

Unfortunately basically every political figure in that age range is at best a cruise-missile liberal. The people of my generation were told (and had reason to believe) in those crucial mid-teens to mid-twenties years that form the majority of your political opinions that the world was a solved problem, and all we have to do is little tweaks and let the inevitable and benevolent tide of history lift everyone up.

JFairfax posted:What did you buy with your winnings from betting on Brexit to win the referendum? If this is supposed to be some sort of attack, lol. I bet on the public voting to shoot itself in the genitals, and I made £40. If it was a genuine question - I bought an Extra large kebab with chilli sauce and lettuce (after no sleep because I was watching the results and associated events, like I did with the american election) and then a few days later after the reality set in I bought a large KFC bucket so I could pretend that my extremely frequent pants making GBS threads was food poisoning rather than sheer brexit related terror. In other news that KFC gave me the shits for two years and it hasn't let up yet. The kebab was quite nice though.

tbh if mcdonnell can get transphobes to vote for corbyn, defeating their whole agenda, i'm all fer it not super comfortable calling all transphobes TERFs also, TERF is an actual intellectual tendency which is transphobic. you wouldn't catch The Donald in a term encompassing radical feminism, for example

Find a place that does an actually not poo poo kebab with real meat and spices and has proper salad with all the pickled poo poo. Get that with piles of veg in a wrap if possible with no sauce at all. 10x better than anything doused in sauce.
