I originally had a switcheroo joke about being an undemocratic Russian stooge, but then I remembered how he and his like stocked the 2016 nutters, and we lost Jo Cox. As much as I don’t like the guy no one should be attacked just for standing democratically.
Look at you, being a decent human being.
The majority of people on here seem to think political violence is acceptable purely against people they disagree with. It would be a different story if it was left-wingers being attacked more often though.
Apparently, this means they’re also morally superior. Lol.
I know he’s a big flaming twat and shouldn’t get any attention at all but absolute LOL at these comments.
FUCK HIM UP! HUURRRRR! HIT HIM IN THE FACE!
Jesus titty fucking Christ what has happened to people? 😅
Politician says ‘I will commit state violence against an entire demographic.’
People say ‘I hope someone else mildly inconveniences that specific public figure.’
Which of these sentiments is more bloodthirsty?
Nice strawman.
My point is that people seem quite happy to condone violence because they don’t like the victim. Are you able to comment on that?
‘You just don’t LIKE it’ is dismissive horseshit and you need to stop.
We are talking about fascists.
There are very specific reasons people are okay with these bastards catching projectiles to the face.
Nice!
Yeah, but unfortunately I fully expect some asshat to take it too far and throw something other than a milkshake or other harmless beverage. It would be great if we could just stick to milkshake protests, but humans are garbage.
Well seeing as the girl who threw the milkshake is being charged with “assault by beating”, I wouldn’t be surprised if people took it further.
“I will not be bullied or cowed by a violent left-wing mob who hate our country,” he wrote about the incident.
Assumes that:
- He is The Country
- Only left wingers hate him
He loves this. He loves to play the victim. The underdog. Despite being a being a real life racist rich toff caricature.
If what he loves is a hurled brick, he’s welcome to as many as he’d like.
Frankly I have no patience for ‘that’s just want they want!’ as a kneejerk response to any backlash against diet Nazis. They’ll claim victory no matter what happens. That’s part of what makes the fascists. The nature of bad faith is that there is no right answer.
If this pattern means the only headlines about this asshole go ‘asshole hit by [object]’ - great. Beats reporting any of the garbage flying from his face.
I think we need to keep being better than them. Not get dragged into the mud with them.
How’d we solve the previous round of Nazis? Polite patience and understanding?
Identifying when people threaten everyone you love and telling them to fuck right off is being better than them.
Can you point to an example in history where this worked? Because all the examples of successful big changes (womens right to vote for example) have included mass uprisings, and violence directed at those in power, and often their financial interests.
