Why not give Sir New Prime Minister a break? | David Mitchell - eviltoast

Do you think the press is too critical of Keir Starmer?

          Yes I reported your post because normal people, in civil conversation, don’t refer to other people as animals. My hope with Lemmy is that people can be civil and polite but for some reason you didn’t want to be.

          It looks like I was right to report your post because the mods seemed to agree that it was a bad post.

              I’m replying again because your posts are moronic. I didn’t say that Starmer is my favourite politician of all time, I just think he seems relatively sensible. If I were to be an obedient dog then I would conform to whatever your shitty instance wants me to think, just like you do.

                That’s the problem though. You find him relatively sensible because you’re a dog. My dog, though smarter, thinks plenty of stupid things because he’s a simple creature. Now go report this one too like a good dog.

                  You believe whatever your instance tells you to believe because you’re a slave to an ideology

                  I’m not, so I think for myself, which you are seemingly incapable of.

                    bark bark bark bark

                    Timmy’s stuck in the well? I don’t get it. Which specific issues am I slave to ideology on while you’re a freethinker?

                Seaford, I’d recommend just blocking badger and moving on. Hexbearers don’t really respect the concept of civility and have much more patience for this inane nattering than you ever will.

                  Fair point, thanks for the advice. I thought it was right-wingers who were meant to be arseholes, but on Lemmy it seems that some (not all) left-wingers are arseholes too.
