Lily's work on those books is genius, I've seen some of them before but now "The Wolf-Exclusionary Radical Piglets & How They Got What Was Coming To Them" has just made me snort coffee over my keyboard.

Lily Maynard I salute you!

Enjoyed that link. Thank you for sharing. Some of my favourite Ladybird books on there.

I'm always forgetting that there are male Ladybirds too. (joke!)

I did educate myself NightmareMonkey, that's how I know it's a load of bs.

You need to educate yourself.

On what?

There is nothing "wrong" with Identity politics.

How long have you got?

Are you this relativist about everything, NightmareMonkey?

No, maybe you do. Yes you may have a different opinion. Great. That doesn't mean she needs to educate herself.

There is nothing "wrong" with Identity politics. It may be a branch of politics you disagree with, however that doesn't make it wrong. You need to educate yourself.
