    Couple of things.

    What makes her right-wing?

    What was her final tweet?

    Do I agree with what she says all the time, no. The few things I have heard I tend to disagree with. The most conversational ones would get the most traction and they are likely the opinions I would most disagree with.

    Twitter can do what they like and should ban her if she doesn't adhere to the Ts + Cs. It's their ball and all that.

    It's a shame though that social media is such a big part of modern life and the main outlet for many at the moment. So big in fact that it was number 1 on most read on the BBC website yesterday.

    A sign of the times.

    Cammy

    People who call refugees ''cockroaches'' and call for a final solution for Muslims tend to be right wing.

    Can't work out if you've been living in a cave for 10 years or being deliberately obtuse?
    I think you will find another poster wasn't sure on what the issue was with Katie Hopkins and even who she was. Nothing about living in a cave or being obtuse. Simply not following one persons story on one media platform does not make one a caveman or obtuse. Neither does not fully understanding what right-wing means either.

    In regards to the cockroaches comment that sounds just rude and a big generalisation.

    I have heard her mention something about girl's name on This Morning a couple of years back which cause a stir.

    You were asking inane questions about her last night.
    I pointed you to Google.

    You are asking inane questions about her today.
    Again I will point you to Google.

    It will literally take you 2 clicks to find the information you need, assuming you actually want to find it.

    If you persist with these inane questions when all information is readily available to you then I can only assume you are being obtuse.

    Things took a comedic turn when Hopkins declared she didn’t like “geographical names” such as Brooklyn or London, before Schofield pointed out that her own daughter’s name is India.

    she is simply a hateful tramp, be thankful you have not read or heard her.......

    @stokefc Please keep up with the PC Brigade,an Actress is now known as an Actor,unless the term is used for an award eg 'The best Actress award goes to...'. So to summarise an Actress is an Actor until the said Actress/Actor wins an award they then revert to being an Actress.Hope that's cleared things up,as the Bishop said to the Actress or was it the Actor... :D .

    No worries

    From my side you seem quite a impolite person and seem to judge people very quickly. Not easy when on an internet forum however you do a good job of that.

    All for discussion and learning opportunities , not one for dealing with an internet forum poster who likes to box people into a corner by providing 'you are this or you are that' type of choices. It's a little closed minded for any healthy debate.

    Not for me I'm afraid.

    I assume the irony of labelling me impolite based on a handful of posts, whilst also pointing out I'm quick to judge, isn't lost on you.

    Either do a bit of research and get involved in these debates properly or sit them out.
    Your wishy washy posts and inane questions are getting pretty tiresome and my patience isn't what it used to be, particularly with right wing types.

    If someone needs to ask why Katie Hopkins is right wing then this person clearly can't be debated with.

    Cammy has been on the forum for a matter of weeks.

    Been a while since we've had a baseless bullying comment, how we've missed those.

    We all know you love to think of yourself as the voice of authority on the forum.
    Shame your flounce the other month only lasted a matter of days.

    Oh, and next time we're at the same SPT, don't approach people I know talking about me but then try and socialise with me later that day.

    More faces than a clock factory.

    Not only based on my interactions with you, based on other posts I have read on the forum that you have been involved in and viewing as an observer of the forum for a couple of years.

    Discussions are only for those with a certain level of knowledge on a subject, that is pretty closed off.

    No room for questions from anyone else who wishes to learn about a subject they don't have enough knowledge in?

    Would rather sit it out to use your words than being labelled right or left wing by someone not willing to offer more than 'just google it'.

    I would not class myself as either wing as I wouldn't agree with one point of view all the time.

    Don't think I have ever been referred to as wishy-washy before either. That's quite good! haha!

    I've got all the patience in the world if I think someone is being genuine in wanting to get involved and learn.
    If I don't think that person is being genuine, and quite possibly deliberately obtuse, then my appetite for patience evaporates. (the same applies to people who post hand histories)

    Amongst other questions, you asked 'why is Katie right wing?' and 'why has she been banned from Twitter?'

    In a previous post you acknowledge that it was the No1 article on the BBC or something that day. There is a plethora of information out there at your fingertips. It is very much a hot topic and not a niche discussion taking place across obscure websites.

    So if someone genuinely wants to get involved, it's very easy for them to research the necessary material. It didn't need any digging on your behalf whatsoever, 2 clicks would've done it.

    Instead you just asked on here. Which to me suggests you're either mildly trolling (ironic I know), have lived under a rock for 10 years or just cba to get involved properly but want to stay on the fringes and throw in the odd grenade here and there.

    Only you know what your true intentions are, but I can certainly guess.

    Without wanting to sound like a schoolteacher but show a bit of an initiative and perhaps I'll be less sceptical.

    Are you supporting the above statement Vespa?

    Hard to tell, I still don't know how you feel about the Statue protectors.
  • markycashmarkycash Member Posts: 2,837
    A couple of thoughts on the statues...

    Statues aren't 'our history'. They are just symbols of times/events from our history which we are choosing to glorify and highlight. Should we be glorifying slave traders?

    Well, I would suggest not. However, Phil makes a good point about judging people by 21st century standards.

    I read a comment by a journalist recently who put forward 2 criteria for deciding on statues...

    (a) Was their behaviour in keeping with that which was widely acceptable/expected in that time period?
    (b) Did they make genuinely noteworthy contributions to society outwith the behaviour in question?

    The above criteria seem reasonable to me but I am happy to consider points to the contrary.

    OK Here's an area where I am comfortable posting.

    How can anybody with a modicum of common sense even think that Jesus was a white European.

    He was a Nazarene, which means Olive skinned, dark hair and brown eyed. The closest European look would be Romany.

    That's why I always pmsl when white supremacists start getting all biblical. Gods chosen people originally were the Jews, again olive skinned, dark hair etc.

    Although David Icke would have you believe otherwise
