    Do people explode if they don't communicate their political leanings daily on social media? 


    Weirdest one is on their social media profiles.

    They usually go something like:

    >insert name< followed by Palestinian Flag, Ukranian Flag, preferred pronoun, EU flag, anti-fascist (as if that isn't the default position for 99.9% of people anyway), anti-Brexit, pro-LGBTQAIOVCRMZX+ etc, fuck the Tories, climate change is REAL, proud vaxxer, part-time veggie/vegan, BE KIND, fuck the Tories.....again.
    I know right? Kind of like how you get profiles that are a Union Jack/England flag, Israeli flag, "anti-woke", "pro-common sense", Anglo Saxon English and Proud ! , etc etc etc

    ---------------

    Here's a few real ones I found: 

    "Made in England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿. no time for wokes or lefty’s. Despise Islam. REFORM supporter. Ex HMP Service. 25 years 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧"

    "Anti-government, Right wing, Nationalist, Patriotic Brit 🇬🇧 ✊ Anglo Saxon English and proud ! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Pro-Israel 🇮🇱 Trump supporter 🇺🇸"

    And a screenshot of another:

    Awful paper, read by awful people.

    The sooner it's consigned to history, the better.
    Isn't every Tory newspaper?

    The Times,.Telegraph, Express, Mail etc....
    Well for a start The Sun can hardly be described as a 'newspaper. Buy hey, lets ban all Tory right-wing newspapers and just keep the left wing Guardian and Socialist Worker, I mean we only need one point of view, no?

    Yep, and they're just as idiotic/weird as the ones I mentioned. Albeit not as widespread from the very limited time I spend on the platforms that these nutters frequent.

    I'll try and cover all bases next time in an attempt to set the benchmark of being completely unbiased when posting, so as not to evoke this sort of reaction. I hope everyone also follows suit so we can all live in harmony  ;)
  • Think that proves there are plenty of pricks out there on every side of the political spectrum

    As for the Sun it’s a pretty shit rag although serves a purpose of annoying scousers so I’d keep it for that reason alone

    Turn it in FFS
    The Tory paper for the working class - the worst kind of tory
    Workers of the world unite! 

    I love the way posters on this forum have the moral and intellectual superiority to damn millions of ordinary working class people by their choice of newspaper. 
    Uneducated, marginalised, useful idiots if you prefer?
    My point perfectly demonstrated...Thank you.

    I would prefer others to live in harmony with those social media profiled people. Please leave me out of it.

    Neither of my posts were aimed at, or referencing, you.

    I apologise if you thought they were.

    Binned…Over Ill Fan

    I don’t even understand the headline. Am I missing a bin reference or something

    "Footie binned ... over ill fan"

    It still doesn't really make sense. But God knows what fuckwit thought that headline was a good idea.

    It was an unfornunate piece. They have apologised and said they didn't know the fan had died but you would have thought they might have got their facts right before the story.
