Apologies if done before, but made me chuckle:

Haven't read the full thread but has anyone actually passed. 🤣

LlynTegid · 04/09/2025 18:00

Hated.

Well I do like to remind people that they are The Paper that Supported the Blackshirts.

I did the questionnaire as though I was my aunt who is 100% the DM's target audience. They hate her.

Then, just for fun I did it as though I was Sarah Vine. They hate her too. Must be because she would answer No to Michael Gove.

Hated, which surprises me- as a white heterosexual with a job I thought I'd be merely loathed. I think it was the "being a woman" bit that tipped me over the edge 😆

Try being an unmarried woman. I am hated.

Taytocrisps · 04/09/2025 18:12

Hated

ArtesianWater · 04/09/2025 18:14

It's not rigged. I claimed to be Michael Gove and am now simply ignored.

notacooldad · 04/09/2025 18:15

It looks like what ever you put in, you get the same answer.

He'll be used to that.

I thought that but did it again and answered the opposite of my real answers, got some extra questions which I answered in a similar fashion, and went from hated to ignored.

SeaAndStars · 04/09/2025 18:19

Which is the highest accolade? To be ignored or hated by the DM?

I didn't get the extra questions! Youve been elevated to being ignored! Well done you! 😆

advertisingshenans · 04/09/2025 15:56

Hated! I still have their app though. The comments section is hilarious. 😂

Best filtered by most popular comments first IMHO.

I am hated. The feeling is mutual so I’m ok with it.

Fernhurst · 04/09/2025 18:21

Proud to be hated by the Mail (and The Express and Telegraph.)

CarpeVitam · 04/09/2025 18:26

Hated! 😂

OfficerChurlish · 04/09/2025 18:27

I got "hated" as well, but I never got any Michael Gove questions, just questions about myself.

If they're counting "Are you a woman? Y" as a point toward being hated, I'm not sure that's right; the DM is reportedly the only one of the pop right trash tabs that has a larger subscriber base of women than men. Which, I've always suspected, is why it gets so much flack compared to e.g., The Express, which has historically been even more virulent and damaging (re: lies about Brexit, asylum seekers, etc.) I see a lot of misogyny in the DMs comments, but not necessarily as an editorial slant.

GingerPaste · 04/09/2025 18:29

Hated 😂

OhNoNotSusan · 04/09/2025 18:29

ha ha
HATED

SusanSHelit · 04/09/2025 18:32

They really loathe me. But like a pp, the feeling is entirely mutual

EyelashConundrum · 04/09/2025 18:32

I am massively hated by them.

I already knew this because i posted on MN a couple of years ago asking whether or not I should allow my 13 year old wear false lashes to school as she was desperate to fit in with her peers. It must have been a slow news week because they picked it as a story to run, and I was eviscerated in the comments section. My parenting is officially the worst and is a perfect example of everything wrong with the entire country.

RaininSummer · 04/09/2025 18:38

Not sure what I have done other being an unmarried, working, white woman but I am hated apparently. Not bothered however.

daddysgirlnot · 04/09/2025 18:41

Hated. The feeling’s mutual.

Dartmoorcheffy · 04/09/2025 15:48

Its rigged. It doesn't matter what you pick, it still says you are hated

Yes agree. But that’s probably true as they hate everyone. I said I was a man uk born and bred worked married . I wasn’t sure about gove though I said I liked him was that right?

MrsMurphyIWish · 04/09/2025 18:46

Leftie teacher raised on benefits married to another teacher of immigrant parents - hated.

I answered untruthfully and was merely 'ignored'.
