@RulesSelmer @KonMChittka @JamesEFoster @socialistcam @Keir_Starmer @UKLabour They can never win but maybe they don’t want to. The real question is the unions. If they all leave, that’d be embarrassing

@davecurtis314 @frankarmstrong2 @SunetraGupta So you can have a PhD in biology and be a professor of theoretical epidemiology at Oxford and not be a “real” epidemiologist and be in your opinion no more informed than a layman. I have no idea if she’s right. I can tell not to take anything YOU say seriously now

@interstar @frankarmstrong2 @SunetraGupta The question for me is whether the same city has ever been hit twice (in the sense of having a high death rate, it seems to subside, then another high death rate)? I’m not talking countries or even regions but specific cities

Wed 22 Jul 2020 22:14

@Mr_AF_QT @frankarmstrong2 @davecurtis314 @SunetraGupta Well maybe the fact that it’s happening in every single country on earth might have something to do with it

@frankarmstrong2 @SunetraGupta it’s interesting. I’m not a doctor, you know. Well, I guess technically I’m a doctor, but you know what they say, “Ph.D.” stands for “phoney doctor.”

@lmharpin Wait including against the woman filmed taking money in exchange for publicly denouncing people as antisemites?

@billkruse @TheMendozaWoman His motivation is that he was always part of the team trying to destroy the left. I tried to warn people. It was so fucking obvious. I AM SO SICK OF BEING PROVEN RIGHT on these issues

@woobasher @TuckerClemens this is simply isn’t true, people counted the evidence. Mention of budget problems in the platform was 17:1, despite the Tory platform being more unbalanced. Mention of Labour vs Tory AS was 3000:1 despite Tories on the whole polling more antisemitic

@TuckerClemens the Office of Budget Responsibility found that both the Tory and Labour platform equally didn’t balance the budget. BBC News mentions this once in the case of the Tories, 17 times for Labour

@kludgebox @ScamuelP @IwriteOK No just witnessing it happen to others in person does it; because when you get the story from the media, it’s only from the police point of view

@ChrisTilley25 @davidschneider that’s what the Labour right did. For years and years. Now you are saying the left should watch them get rewarded for such behaviour, but not do the same themselves? Why? It’s obviously how you get ahead in politics these days.

@RulesSelmer @MediaLensWipe @MaryTracy @davidschneider that seems pretty much all correct. Belief in institutions as values in themselves is another important one.

Tue 21 Jul 2020 09:50

@MediaLensWipe the blindness of folks like you to how insulting you are to people like I grew up with is in my view one of the primary reasons for the growth of global fascism.

Tue 21 Jul 2020 09:46

@MediaLensWipe actually I grew up working class – when I talk about how members of the professional-managerial class felt and acted towards folks like me I speak from long bitter personal experience; repeated in your ultra-superior and obnoxious behaviour even now

Tue 21 Jul 2020 02:17

@MediaLensWipe @MaryTracy @davidschneider Or else why would they fall for the sane obvious scam over and over

Tue 21 Jul 2020 02:17

@MediaLensWipe @MaryTracy @davidschneider The right runs a guy who pretends to be doltish and stupid. The centre left cackle at what an idiot he seems to be. The right says to the working class “look that’s the way they think of you too.” I have finally come to the conclusion centrists aren’t even trying to win

Tue 21 Jul 2020 02:15

@MediaLensWipe @MaryTracy @davidschneider Yeah. I’ve argued again and again that the “centrist left” aka “liberals” totally play into the rightwing playbook with the whole superiority (“Bush is a moron” etc etc) act. It also shows how dumb they actually are to fall for it every time

@MediaLensWipe @MaryTracy @davidschneider yes actually I do think it had a big effect. Brexit was the biggest thing, you’re right, but Corbyn’s big draw in the elections he won and almost won was his integrity, he was an actual honest decent man. So they took direct aim & blasted away with everything they had.

Mon 20 Jul 2020 23:49

@MaryTracy @davidschneider that’s what I hate so much about liberals. They don’t want to win; they want to feel superior. They much prefer a lying incompetent like Trump or BJ to an honest leftist like BS or JC, because with the former, they benefit economically, AND get to say “what an idiot!” every day

Mon 20 Jul 2020 23:45

@MaryTracy @davidschneider for year after year watching the endless lynching of Jeremy Corbyn, I was telling myself, “oh I can’t WAIT to see this guy acting all morally outraged at the far-right government that will result.”

Mon 20 Jul 2020 23:33

@davidschneider yeah and it was people like you especially, who put the Tories in there by pretending the social democratic opposition was antisemitic. I hold you personally responsible for this outcome.

@huwspanner @David__Osland what’s your explanation for why she gets as much abuse as all other 650 MPs combined?
