Hey [MENTION=89]Sorrel[/MENTION], this belittling of leave voters you speak of - I really can't think why that might have happened. :lolol:

Oh.


Or perhaps a clue? I mean just look at the contributions of this absolute moron - he is so thick that he can't even concentrate sufficiently to process TWO paragraphs.

He dismissed one of my posts yesterday (yes, I peeked). I was actually explaining why Boris has a mandate to do what he likes over Brexit (morally, if not legally) as long as he gets it done. And yet droopy seemed to think I was making a remainer point. :shrug: I felt quite proud to have been so misunderstood. :lolol:

This thread is absolutely vile

Probably with good reason.

I often wonder how the nation would vote if given an option to enable some new technology that allows couples to read one another's minds. And how NSC would debate the issue, and the kerfuffle that would follow after the outcome (which would of course be 'yes').

Looking forward to droopy calling my post 'clueless'. :shrug:

I wrote a nice calm, friendly, reasonable reply to this. Then I deleted it all when I realized that you used the term "mansplaining".

You know what, f*ck you and people like you. You are the moron, you just don't see it.

You lost, people like you will always lose until you realize what you are and what you have been doing. You might be tempted to think that we live in a terrible time where virtuous liberalism is being rejected by a nasty (and apparently thick) majority.

Wrong. Self righteous, "morally (and apparently intellectually) superiour" people like you, who play identity politics, pit men against women, black against white, rich against poor etc, you are what has been rejected, thank f*ck.

One day you will wake up and realize that a) people who see things differently from you actually have nothing in common with Nazis, and b) you actually have a fair bit in common with the Marxist–Leninists, more than is healthy.

You lost, you will never win, and by the way if you did you would soon find yourself in a world which terrifies you, if you don't believe me just ask those people who lived in the old Soviet Union or Maoist China..

Sorry for my "mansplaining", hope I didn't get any of my "white privilege" in your eye.


Probably unintentionally, you have actually highlighted a point that a few people have said before:

'You lost'. You're treating something like a flipping game. Yet people whinge when they get labelled childish?

What a load of utter shit.

You tempted me to peek at the post to which you replied. Very succinct. Your reply :lolol:

The thing about gammon is that it can be avuncular, kindly to children, gallant to women, subscribe to the National Trust, and all sorts. But.....

This analogy doesn't even make sense. If you're going to start trying to educate me in fallacies and debate tactics at least make your analogies work.

So here we have you who has accused someone else (and others) of driving divisions between men & women, white & black and rich & poor and how the people who do that "lost". I then commented that your accusations of this were laughable given the most prominent people on the opposing side of that argument were the ones who were actually guilty of the crime you lambast, and they "won". You then come up with some spurious nonsense about foxes rather than engage with the point, or indeed use it as an opportunity to condemn those on the same side who spout the shit you claim to despise.

Next time you're on Wikipedia, try searching for "hypocrisy". It might ring a few bells.

("appeal to hypocrisy")

I don't actually agree with you on who plays identity politics and who doesn't but I was never going to bother having that discussion with you, because you are ideologically possessed. I don't feel like defending Johnson or Farage, and I don't have to. I speak and answer for myself not for other people. I also ask that others speak for and answer for themselves, not other people.

It doesn't seem to me that the "identity politics" narrative, and the "group identity mentality" is what has won the day and is now the dominant force in our politics though. It's the hallmark of the liberals here and in the U.S. and both have been absolutely destroyed at the polls. The West is based on individualism not collectivism, and with good reason. Good reason which apparently even a "moron" can understand. Go figure.

Please continue...

By the way. Gammon is a term which refers to white men of a certain age and political view point.

So, it's ageist, sexist, racist and politically discriminatory.

But it's Ok to be those things when you are one of the "good guys" directing those things and the "bad guys". It's those other people who are biggots. You are just "woke".

Exactly. That's why I just called his feeble rant "a load of shit". He didn't like what I wrote about leave winning thanks to the votes of millions of simpletons and morons, made up some spurious reason for getting frothy mouthed (he didn't like the use of the word "mansplaining") and then went on his comedy nonsensical rant.

Strange. You are now attacking people who agree with you.

(Unless you think that the government should not do what it promised to do and the poster's attack on Remainers was wrong.)
- in the end were probably contributory factors in the bloodymindedness of those who voted the government their majority.............. right on ???

What tangible thing have they 'won'

You know that the answer is '**** all' don't you? I'd add that we'll ALL lose, but that ignores the ironic fact that the areas most adversely affected will be those that voted strongly for Brexit. Places like Sussex and the big cities should be fine.

Pre GE broadcasts from places like Stoke and Bishop Auckland had locals (irrationally) convinvced that Brexit was the answer to all their woes. Give it 2-4 years before we start seeing news reports of people in these Brexity towns incredulous to the fact that the EU was not the reason for all the bad stuff in their lives and towns.

The triumphalism made me lose all sympathy about 2 years ago to the extent that I will LOL when Sunderland loses Nissan.
