feedmegin posted:I'm sorry, are they implying that literally the Queen, the head of the Anglican Church is Jewish? Amusingly there are some equally deranged Royalists who believe that the Queen is Jewish and also a blood relative of Jesus.  That all started in the Victorian Era, with the idea that the Britons are a lost tribe of Israel and the current Jews are all Khazars, it's some vintage  antisemitism that still comes up in neo-Nazi circles in Commonwealth Realms.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:April 30th is traditionally celebrated in Sweden by gathering sticks and stuff during spring into big heaps, and then lighting big bonfires. Sadly, hedgehogs often mistake them for great cosy hedgehog lairs, so the tradition's thoroughly ruined for me, even with my barely-in-control pyromaniac tendencies and the roasting of hedgehogs being incidental rather than deliberate. They're just so cute with their noses and little paws and gentle, charcoal eyes, I can't stand the thought of them getting hurt 'Check your bonfires for hedgehogs before you light them' is traditional advice over here for Guy Fawkes Day too v0v long as you're careful, go nuts setting fire to things imo

Bundy posted:Ok, are you a good one to ask? It doesn't feel much like debate if we don't allow people we disagree with. I was one of the people in this thread when he was around, yes. There is a reason he doesn't get to post in here any more. It's not because he's in the habit of making interesting good-faith arguments that provoke useful discussion. Indeed, he's part of the reason people were all rather 'hmmmmm' when you first started posting.

Bundy posted:Ok, are you a good one to ask? It doesn't feel much like debate if we don't allow people we disagree with. It is not that we disagree with him, it is entirely the way he says things. Imagine making a point and then someone responding to it with things that have nothing to do with it, or outright lies. No matter how much effort you put into replying, it will always be dismissed with something else unrelated or ignored. Now also add posts just designed to say the same things over and over again, mostly inflammatory but in a way that looks innocent. Now also add that this would cover pages and pages and pages. Now also add petty reporting from the person trying to get others in trouble for arguments that they started. This is a brief insight into the world of Pissflaps.

Basically, you wouldn't get any more substance than you get in a Twitter conversation (and I mean that literally - most of his posts were as long as his tweets), you'd get a light smattering of skeevy jokes, and you'd get insulting PMs whenever you complained about any of this.

Bundy posted:Ok, are you a good one to ask? It doesn't feel much like debate if we don't allow people we disagree with. Pissflaps isn't banned from the thread because we disagree with him. He's banned from the thread because he's a cock who brings out the worst everyone else. He would never answer a question. The main example is Jeremy Corbyn. "This is bad for Corbyn" became a thread meme because he'd post it continually, with a link to a poll from Twitter or a news story or whatever. There'd be like 5 or 6 page debates where he'd come along and say "Corbyn must go" and people would then ask him who should replace him and he'd never ever answer the question straight. It was just painfully boring, made worse because some posters felt unable to just not take the bait (including me for a good long while). He added nothing to the thread except being both a really boring pedant and a really boring contrarian. He also apparently sent pretty nasty & vile PMs to people in UKMT who disagreed with him, but I never had PMs so never got to experience that joy myself. There's no value in engaging with someone like that. You can engage with him on Twitter if you really want to, but please don't post his tweets here. I'm quite happy only having to see his occasional smug contribution to ScotPol forkboy84 fucked around with this message at 12:07 on May 1, 2019 |

Pissflaps continues to be the boring little oval office who got barred from his local but still hangs around outside it trying to worm his way back in. More pitiful than the wife and child he made up. Also in the few moments where he's actually been honest about his opinions he's been a racist, homophobic and transphobic.

Pissflaps was playing a character in this thread at all times. His 'home' thread was in the football forums and he was a totally different person and would actually be sincere. I don't know about others but people who just drop into personas for long periods of time really freak me out. He spent hours of his day 'trolling' people. Seemingly because he got off on being disliked. Or it's some ego thing where he disrespected everyone to such an extent that he would not act sincere for even one second. Either way it was very unhealthy.

All TERFs will be first against the wall. This story about Caster Semenya has my blood boiling. The same people who wail about trans people being chemically castrated and now celebrating a victory where a woman has to alter her biology to keep her job.

This smacks of heavy government involvement in the court system and massively calls into question judicial independence. What utter bollocks. He was arrested at Heathrow under a European Arrest Warrant at the request of the Swedish police, then released on bail while they sorted out the paperwork. When his court appeal against the extradition failed, the Met rung him up to ask him if would he mind popping into his local copshop with a toothbrush and a lawyer so he could be extradited he suddenly decided it was a plot to have him black-bagged to an Undisclosed Location and bolted for the Ecuadorian embassy.
