Dirty nuancing

calzino, Sunday, 26 January 2020 19:33 (six years ago)

sorry if I've been too rude and repetitive today. I started too early and fucking haven't stopped and am not very filtered right now!

calzino, Sunday, 26 January 2020 20:20 (six years ago)

This weekend some anonymous Labour MP who opposes Rebecca Long-Bailey briefed, of all newspapers, The Sun on Sunday that they’ll quit if the members make RLB leader. I have to say, I’m yet to witness any attempt to win over Labour members fail on quite so many levels

dirty dirty campaign it seems so far, some things never change.

calzino, Sunday, 26 January 2020 20:28 (six years ago)

Oh bloody hell

what is the "nuanced" take on a Labour pol briefing a Murdoch rag to undermine a left wing candidate during a leadership election ?:p

calzino, Sunday, 26 January 2020 21:09 (six years ago)

Don’t write for the Sun, don’t pose with the Sun, don’t brief to the Sun.

steer karma (gyac), Sunday, 26 January 2020 21:41 (six years ago)

Yes!

Starmer is running a very dirty campaign, but the smearing is being done by the network of cunts from the the two right-wing labour pressure groups in his team - that seems certain to me - but i didn't go to Cambridge so I lack nuance. :(

Emily Thornberry: ‘I hate the SNP’
RLB: ‘What we need to do is not talk about how much we all hate the SNP..’

Absolutely loving the SNP bashing at the #OLHustings. Everyone in the room breaking out in laughter 😂👌

o shit this is gonna be EPIC #remainiac4eva #fbpe #bollockstobrexit

I am told that @JolyonMaugham's twitter absence is due to his meticulous planning of an epic Brexit court case that will change literally everything. Anyone who still thinks we are leaving on Friday may want to think again...

so that battered fox was just a clever subterfuge to throw the forces of brexit off his scent. very well done.

calzino, Monday, 27 January 2020 09:40 (six years ago)

pretty sure that's a spoof account

More photos of the #saveourlibraries #Essex Day Of Action. People who wanted to sign the petitions were horrified by @Essex_CC plans to put libraries into the hands of volunteers and other groups. ‘HOW DARE THEY - WE PAY FOR OUR LIBRARIES AND LIBRARIANS!’ they said. So true. pic.twitter.com/qctZo6cxPo

very hard to discern what is real and what is satire these days

lol at '+ samira ahmed' in much smaller font just days after she won a case about equality

chapoquidditch (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 27 January 2020 09:49 (six years ago)

lol, that is a+ satire, and then the bit about "you must be accompanied by one of the "adults (in the room)"

Oh shit we're leaving on Friday with what feels like a gigantic shrug.

All the Where's Jeremy Corbyn types have gone surprisingly quiet now, I actually feel bad for true believers like EU Supergirl being left high and dry.

Matt DC, Monday, 27 January 2020 11:23 (six years ago)

it is pretty remarkable how quickly all that 'let's take to the streets' energy dried up

it's almost like the most vocal remainers didn't really give much of a shit about actual politics or something

chapoquidditch (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 27 January 2020 11:26 (six years ago)

all their political anger was used up saving 6 music!

I don’t, she’s grifted thousands out of randy centrist dads, they’ll probably continue supporting her racist art and...whatever else she does for a whole

steer karma (gyac), Monday, 27 January 2020 11:32 (six years ago)

I do know people asking "Why aren't people making more noise, Brexit is still very unpopular", but they're in a minority - which wasn't the case two months ago.

Andrew Farrell, Monday, 27 January 2020 11:37 (six years ago)

randy centrist dads

lol thank u for perfectly crystallising this demographic

chapoquidditch (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 27 January 2020 11:38 (six years ago)

Successfully pivoted from her previous shtick to supporting Lord Buckethead iirc, she saw the writing on the wall.

Daniel_Rf, Monday, 27 January 2020 11:40 (six years ago)

supporting her racist art

You'll have some receipts for this, of course.

Andrew Farrell, Monday, 27 January 2020 11:42 (six years ago)

i don't think gyac has bought any of her racist art so is unlikely to have receipts tbf

chapoquidditch (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 27 January 2020 11:43 (six years ago)

I'm just pondering if the bloke who apparently made a single donation of over £10k to the Jess Phillips campaign was a randy centrist dad or a bent property developer? Or what will Led By Donkeys next hustle be. Such an interesting paradigm shift we are going into. From now on Corbynistas = melts and melts = apprentice tory golf nazis!

calzino, Monday, 27 January 2020 11:49 (six years ago)

hahahahaha ouch

she's clearly wearing some kind of off-brand wonder woman outfit in the rees-mogg pic, what kind of shitty supergirl does that

chapoquidditch (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 27 January 2020 11:56 (six years ago)

Can i put money on her being an actual nazi by the end of 2021? The EU grift has clearly passed its expiry date.

@RLong_Bailey on top form at Ronnie Campbell’s retirement do in Blyth with a powerful insight into her part in the Shadow Treasury operation during the mass resignation of Labour MP’s clearly shows how strong & able she is to lead in high-pressure situations like this#RLB4Leader pic.twitter.com/OFzNPBOkv4

Like 99% of the time I am very much a “separate art from the artist!” person but I blame his politics for me always putting off reading any of his books (even though I own several).

steer karma (gyac), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:21 (six years ago)

his books are incredible and his politics were um complicated

GK Chessington's World of Adventure (Noodle Vague), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:22 (six years ago)

i dunno going full Mishima sounds a pretty attractive prospect depending on the outcome of the leadership election

GK Chessington's World of Adventure (Noodle Vague), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:23 (six years ago)

Gyac read Mishima Led by Donkeys aren't even good enough to commit mass Seppuku on the big day xp

xyzzzz__, Monday, 27 January 2020 12:24 (six years ago)

Ok, I will, if I turn fascist I blame you

steer karma (gyac), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:27 (six years ago)

i feel like The Nobility of Failure is as good an exposition of his politics as any fascist stuff

GK Chessington's World of Adventure (Noodle Vague), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:29 (six years ago)

There's a LOT wrong with that picture, but I think I'd struggle to call it racist? The rest is that out of the thousands of she @s and meets a few are unsavoury, which (shrug).

(I know that there's this weird faction that assumes that the Mogg is significant because everyone who is pro-EU is secretly pretending and will turn to the far-right eventually, but I don't really feel the need to pay that theory any attention)

Andrew Farrell, Monday, 27 January 2020 12:41 (six years ago)

No, I’d say the crowd who want to ethnically cleanse Europe is more significant in that regard.

steer karma (gyac), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:42 (six years ago)

the_eu_supergirl_defender has logged on

chapoquidditch (bizarro gazzara), Monday, 27 January 2020 12:44 (six years ago)

I can take her or leave her, I was curious if there was something there.

Andrew Farrell, Monday, 27 January 2020 12:54 (six years ago)

I suppose it depends how much you feel how bad this is.

But finally, and most disappointingly, you alienate your natural allies. Just this week, self-styled “#EUSupergirl” Kay tweeted that she had “made friends” with a right-wing extremist in favour of “repatriation” and driving out “degeneracy”.

“I’m seriously wondering what the hell is going through the popular remainers heads right now,” tweeted writer and policy analyst Julien Hoez in response to Kay’s announcement. “(The European Parliament’s] Young European of the Year … is making “friends” with white supremacists(.)”

“The (yellow vests) want people like me dead. Sooner than later,” wrote another tweeter. “I’m so glad #EUSupergirl can make friends with them while ‘fighting Brexit.’”
“Maddy wants to sympathise with the concerns of people who want a ‘homogeneous society’ of white rulers over a white Britain. I’m mixed-race,” said another. “What do Maddy’s new friends have planned for me? Oh … I’m not from the EU. I’m ‘already under the bus’ as Femi puts it.”
