Centrists are getting morally outraged on behalf of Nigel Farage. The 'politically homeless' are easy prey for fascism.

The real problem isn’t that they’re politically homeless. It’s that they have multiple homes which they can flit between whenever they feel like a nice holiday break to bigot-upon-sea.

As a Centrist, I am delighted to see both the populist hard right and populist hard left in trouble as both are a danger to both my county’s and family’s security and prosperity. Regardless of that, don’t post pictures of instruments of execution linked to the name of your political opponents.

Seems like “politically homeless” often means “I’d like fascism for some groups but not others.” And, I’m sorry, but it doesn’t work that way.

No-one is outraged at the image. They are annoyed that Polanski has handed Farage an easy win. Imagine being so obsessed with "centrists" your brain has melted.

Massive own-goal from Polanski. Farage is a racist and a revolting excuse for a politician, yet Polanski has handed him the moral high ground. Jo Cox was killed by someone who'd been radicalised to think that executing political opponents is good. Violent imagery degrades all of us, whoever uses it.

Ha ha jfc, you fucking dupe.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

I don't think you have the slightest understanding of why Farage is a revolting politician if you see this as giving him the moral high ground. Reform voters are burning people out of their homes, but please keep whining about a T-shirt.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

Btw you should have used a semi-colon in that last sentence, to really bring out the pomposity.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

The moral high ground is only handed to him by people like you. Liking a post is NOT the equivalent of encouraging racist thugs to attack and kill asylum seekers. You might well clutch your pearls in feigned shock. But seriously. Get a fucking grip on what is actually happening in this country.

If violent imagery degrades all of us, then you won’t be voting Labour then? Because Burnham and Labour will end up harming scores and scores of sick and disabled people with welfare cuts. That’s as violent as that t shirt.

Farage only has the moral high ground if you give it to him by continuing to ignore where he has stood for a very long time. Massive own goal from the centrists, but then it is just a game to them. If you can't kick left, you don't want to play at all. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/poli...

Does this count as inciting violence? www.lbc.co.uk/article/sir-...

Why are you giving Farage the moral high ground? Stop helping him.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

These are cartoons that were published in the British press, I don't remember any outrage from English based politicians, media, or commentators.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

It's a dumb T shirt image he shared briefly. There are far worse things happening. Strangely I find myself disapproving of the image, for the reason that Farage - unlike many on the far right - has never openly supported capital punishment as far as I know anyway.

Eat shit Vichy

Ответ для Greg Shaw

I seem to remember a whole bunch of people being A OK with this.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

Someone who had been radicalised and tipped over the edge by Nigel Farage telling him we/he was at breaking point that very morning. That really is (stochastic) incitement.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

centrists think polanski is always fucking everything up and they love it

It's a misstep from Polanski and this should have been handled better. Farage is a dickhead who I am not going to defend. These two things can be simultaneously true. If my post makes you angry, the problem is not my post.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

Shut the fuck up.

Ответ для Greg Shaw

can you describe in any kind of useful way what "the moral high ground" is?

Turns out they were never politically homeless, they just find their political bed fellows embarrassing.

Do you mean that a few people who formerly masqueraded as centrists have dropped their cover?

The pleasure is all about the Green Pied Piper fucking up The ideal anyone other than the far Right and bigots are "morally outraged" is really for the birds

Someone has 'BIN' making plans!

Which centrists? Burnham?

Centrist = Vichy

No, it's rightful anger at Polanski stupidly handing Farage such an easy and unnecessary 'win' at a time when he's on the ropes over funding & his disastrous by-election.
