Had a tuna melt on Sunday and was like why am I not always eating tuna melts

Personally I have never used the expression 'melt' in my life, either here or irl. Anyway I assumed Fred was doing his usual, "You lot are all tankies" routine, so maybe I got that wrong. That and the fact that he never seems to show up in UK politics threads to do anything other than provoke a fight.

Was it really so offensive of Fred to bring in a Scandinavian perspective? I didn't think so.

Tom wrote this in response to my post about Scandinavia:
As usual, Fred, you have no idea what you're talking about, you have no clue about the Labour Party and the Labour movement in the UK - its history, its significance, its importance, so shut the fuck up and go and irritate some Americans instead.

I did go off one before that tbf but, yes, that was a neat touch from Fred.

Telling me, a guy from Scandinavia talking about Scandinavia, that I don't know what I'm talking about?

Stop playing dumb, Fred, no-one's buying it.

Every country in Scandinavia has a Socialist and a Social Democratic party, btw. And a Green one, and probably a Socially Liberal one. It's great. You can really pinpoint the melts.

It's everyone but the Socialists, of course

Had arguments about Polly Toynbee before, the idea that she's 'on our side' when she's a fake who was quite happy to be involved in an attempt to destroy the Labour movemement before.

so, is it cool when someone who isn't from and doesn't live in a region whose politics are at issue posts on a thread if you agree with their politics, but it's only annoying if they post on the thread when you disagree with their politics?
like, I see a bunch of non-Californians opining on our state politics thread, and I just wanna know if I have the right to be annoyed at them, esp. when they get all sanctimonious
― sarahell, Tuesday, 25 February 2020 22:17 (four years ago) link
I don't really know what Fred's politics are tbh - and he plainly doesn't know mine - but given that he routinely characterizes posters on the UK politics thread as xenophobic tankies you can see why he's not particularly welcome there.
― Load up your rubber wallets (Tom D.), Tuesday, 25 February 2020 22:20 (four years ago) link
God knows the UK politics thread is hard enough work without him sticking his oar in.

it depends on how you define "adjacent" -- in the geographical sense, no ... in the political sense, idk
