AIBU to stop therapy after learning my therapist’s husband is Reform?

Party wise, they hate brown people. They wheel out a few misguided token people.

Poor little Reform supporters. All they want to do is vote through a referendum that decimates our economy and stifles our children's futures; shout their tits off about immigration policy that is both potentially devastating to thousands and economically self-defeating anyway; render the climate of the very Earth we live on uninhabitable; jump to conclusions about every damn crime that gets reported about how it must have been those horrible muslim asylum seekers (and then go strangely silent when they're wrong); go to marches to hear the likes of Tommy Ten Names spout vile, bigoted crap about their bogeyman du jour; vote for a party that openly plans to remove free access to healthcare, destroy the government's tax base and therefore all possibility of decent public services with it, and turbo-charge our already spiralling economic inequality...

And people won't even be nice to them and be their fwiends!

The far right insanity taking over the world at the moment is a revolting disease, and the people who openly and proudly attempt to impose it upon our futures can go wallow in their festering hole of self pity and do whatever they have to do. It's not our responsibility to make them feel better about their racism or their gullibility. Our responsibility as citizens and as parents is to fight back and salvage whatever sliver of hope for humanity we can.

I'm not going to tell you you should find another therapist, but that's what I'd be doing. And I'd tell her exactly why.

Yes this is the bit that is really racist. Attributing a negative characteristic to everyone coming from a particular part of the world because of the behaviour of a small minority.

I was actually making a joke about the woeful understanding of fascism by multiple posters. I didn’t even notice your typo and I knew what you meant, which is why my reply to you focused on your failure to understand the term, not your spelling of it.

Many of these asylum seekers have unfortunately commit heinous crimes

Is it many or is it actually a small percentage? Do you have the stats?

We also have MN moderators who will delete posters who criticise other posters in this way. You don’t know who you’re responding to - what their level of grammar/punctuation/spelling is, or whether they have a disability affecting their ability. It’s rude and it can be ableist.

But we have spell check?

. Sovereignty - people didn't want to be governed by unelected bureaucrats. You can't vote out the European commission. We have a free trade deal with the EU

. We need to limit immigration.

. Energy costs here are very high, they hurt industry and consumers. We are 1% of emissions.

. Many of these asylum seekers have unfortunately commit heinous crimes.

Do people here refuse to be civil to Tory councillors.

Again party wise what's racist about their policies?

All parties have had unscrupulous people at the local level.

ha! Im dyslexic - but don’t worry I’m used to the ableism of being dyslexic

You misunderstood my post. It wasn’t the Poles voting it was my neighbours voting to get them out. There’ll be plenty of people that aren’t white ‘racists’ voting for Reform I assure you.

I actually find reform voters absolutely fine to have a debate with. They have their opinions and will express them and listen and maybe you can find common ground to bring them out of their opinions.

but the left I find very hard to have any kind of debate without it being immediately shut down.

anyway - I’m out, too much of a nest of vipers for me ✌️

But what if the therapist's spouse is a woke, snowflake lefty? Could be a dilemma.

Oh, the irony of the Poles voting this way. But, as they say 'it is always the newcomers/last ones in who pull up the ladder'. Btw, border control is vital, not racist. And multiculturalism is only a strength when you have an Empire - like Britain used to be or like the USSR was.
