Gonzo McFee posted:Lol theyre explicitly banning pointing out that the BBC is utterly biased towards the tories, even going so far as to use right wing language banning "virtue signalling" which covers everything from charity work to saying that tories burning fivers in front of the homeless is bad. I've never seen anybody from the BBC point out that the BBC is biased towards the Tories, or that burning fivers in front of the homeless is bad. Going "oh no, BBC stars will be banned from expressing left-wing opinions on twitter" seems to miss the fact that none of them have any remotely left-wing opinions.

If anything was sane any more, a politically neutral virtue signalling ban to the left should mean an equal virue signalling ban to the right, and theregore anyone saying it's good to amass cash or ban minorities should also be This would rely on centrists being any more than a bulwark to protect the hard right from leftists.

Ratjaculation posted:What were Corbyns comments? Full statement from Corbyns FB page: quote:"Antisemitism is absolutely abhorrent, wrong and responsible for some of humanity’s greatest crimes. As Leader of the Labour Party I was always determined to eliminate all forms of racism and root out the cancer of antisemitism. I have campaigned in support of Jewish people and communities my entire life and I will continue to do so. I assume they're pouncing on the second to last paragraph holding onto the belief that the problem was overstated.

So glad I quit the party - I told everyone I was leaving in January so they could find other 'volunteers' for the various jobs I did, and emailed in my formal resignation in March. What a shower of bloody shits. They should be dragging McNicol and Matthews over the coals for bringing the party into disrepute for deliberately hampering investigations, Emilie Oldknow for her blatant bullying and harassment, and all the other wankers on the right. gently caress Sir Hairspray the Wooden Plank and his cronies. I hate the tories, but my hatred for the new new labour is not far behind.

Wow, they finally did it. Even out of office, they are still driven to crush him. Seriously... You do have to wonder if he had actually won 2019, if they would have just gone full Bolivian coup style on that election and in that alternate timeline we would all currently be in Red Brigades, defending the last redoubts in the north from the encroaching Nationalist militias. Edit: Seriously what's that phrase for the using the legal system to depose leftist leaders in south america again?

if you suggest at any point that any allegation of antisemitism might be in bad faith or politically motivated you're part of the problem, i.e. basically Hitler

This bit: quote:“One antisemite is one too many, but the scale of the problem was also dramatically overstated for political reasons by our opponents inside and outside the party, as well as by much of the media. That combination hurt Jewish people and must never be repeated. Lets ignore Sam Matthews blaming Labour for him not doing his loving job, or uh...whatsherface reporting 200 people for antisemtism, 90% of whom weren't labour members.

It's forbidden to acknowledge the ideologically motivated nature of the overwhelming majority of claims of antisemitism.
