I am just helping out those demanding a full blown inquiry by c&p the report Wink

Thank you.
Sadly I think that even were that repeated every other post it would still be ignored by the baying hordes.

I know, it's more for those reading the thread

Small consolation but more than 2/3 of posters think the OP is unreasonable and lots of pushback in addition to @DuncinToffee excellent contributions

Piggywaspushed · 03/01/2025 11:01

I admire the people who keep posting 'there has already been an enquiry'. I think posters just need to keep spamming the thread with that one sentence tbh and get it full. It's really troublingly full of disinformation and has attracted the SYL apologists.

itsgettingweird · 03/01/2025 11:02

ignored by the baying hordes

That's the crux of it.

These people don't want truth and honesty. That's why no one gave 2 shiney shites about the Tory's constant lies and propaganda 3 word slogans having no actual substance or meaning.

People no longer seem to care about honesty and integrity. It's more about who can post the comment that gets most likes. Life is a SM post - "my truth", my take on it and my opinion which needs to reach a wide audience for validation.

None of what I see surprises me - but it scares the crap out of me as to where we are going.

Page 24 already - it'll be full be late lunch-time then disappear forever

I've decided to help with that.

There are some seriously thick people on those threads. They are howling about Starmer needing to be held to account, citing the extract from court papers which Musk retweeted and which detail the vile rapes and abuse Mohammed Karrar committed.

Crimes which he received a life sentence for.

All whilst Starmer was DPP.

I give up. It is pointless arguing with such people.

DuncinToffee · 03/01/2025 12:59

I hope Jess Phillips has protection

Exclusive: Senior politicians on the UK right have privately contacted Donald Trump’s allies urging them not to endorse far-right activist Tommy Robinson

The view in both the Tory party and Reform is that Elon Musk has gone too far by backing Robinson

That’s good @DuncinToffee
Ive been trying on the Musk thread too, but it’s really pointless. They’re like whack a mole.

I think that is very likely after the GE campaign in her constituency by so-called supporters of one of the other candidates.

PandoraSox · 03/01/2025 13:26

Presented without comment. I think it is OK to post this here as it is my own post.

I doubt you could whack them hard enough to bang some sense into them 😉

She has & i believe alongside Diane Abbott, she gets more hate mail etc than any MP.
She has said in the past that she has a panic room....

When you read some of the comment on that thread and across SM, its no surprise.

Same here - trouble is I'm becoming seriously grumpy about it now.

DuncinToffee · 03/01/2025 15:18

It's full now.

edited to add, they have started part 2 now Hmm

And there's a thread 2. Apparently according to the batshit OP, if you suspect the sainted Elon's motives, you support the drugging and raping of young girls.

itsgettingweird · 03/01/2025 15:24

And on the MF thread I'm on if you question banging up a 18yo for having consensual sex with a 17yo (whose mother filed the complaint) you are a rapist apologist.

As someone who has actually been there I find it so fucking disrespectful that that equivocate what happened there with actual rape.

MNHQ is allowing the site to be dragged into the gutter.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 03/01/2025 15:39

And the voting on thread 2 is round 50/50.

MN is making it's own way into the gutter...
