Post-election Pie Archived Message Posted by Ian M on December 16, 2019, 11:02 pm Anybody else notice that, for all his hyper-ventilating about free speech and engaging with those who have different views, I don't think he has once mentioned the A/S witch-hunt, at least not in a way that suggests Corbyn and Momentum have been unfairly victimised and bullied by the entire political culture. Now we're not even allowed to use the word 'zionist' ffs - you'd've thought he might've picked up on that! Seems like everybody else, in Pie's worldview, is allowed to throw around baseless insults and damaging libels but woe betide any 'guardian reader' who thinks racial prejudice or media-stoked hyper-nationalism might've had something to do with people voting for brexit, or continuing to vote tory when they haven't bothered to string together a coherent manifesto or election campaign for, what, 10 years, 15? Oh, and the 'getting brexit done' that has worked so well since 2016... The point about facebook feeds not being equal to the wider political reality is true enough, but where is his analysis of the mass media, which has sunk so deep into the right wing sewer (graun included) that people have to go to left wing alternative media to get a basic sense of sanity? We didn't choose these bubbles; we were forced into them! cheers, I Message Thread: Post-election Pie - Ian M December 16, 2019, 11:02 pm Re: Post-election Pie - Ed December 16, 2019, 11:44 pm Re: Post-election Pie - Ian M December 17, 2019, 4:50 pm Re: Post-election Pie - Ian M December 20, 2019, 11:02 pm   Searching
