To spoil Katie Hopkins holiday by giving her a piece of my mind

[S0ph1a]

I'm on a family holiday in a Mediterranean resort and guess who else is staying here?

I'm sorely tempted to go up and tell her what a horrible, hate filled, divisive person she is and that most educated and intelligent people in the country despise what she stands for.

[TequilaSunshine]

Some of her supporters aren't capable of arguing a position. They are capable of being abusive.

True. With the stuff she spouts, she's going to attract the hate filled, the slow of thinking, the knuckle draggers as well as the more intellectual ones.

Disagreeing....verbally abusive. Not arguing. Just being abusive.
Yep. See above.

You see it on here if you hold a different opinion, though. Even if there's no name calling, and a valid point put across. So works from both 'sides.'
No need for name calling whichever "side" you're coming from.

[S0ph1a]

Her supporters aren't very nice. To put it mildly

Yup, I'm beginning to see that.

Sorry to hear that you got abuse for disagreeing with her.

Beeziekn33ze fortunately my kids are called Birkenhead and Southport ( after where they were conceived natch ) .

[Orlantina]

aware that you will have a lot of people disagreeing

Is that surprising? Given the hate she spouts, she's not going to get nice calm followers, is she?

Challenging her online is important but be prepared for your notifications to go mad and to get lots of abuse if she retweets and replies to your comment.
Well, yeah. If you hold a different opinion to the majority of whatever platform you're on, be it MN or Twitter or whatever, be aware that you will have a lot of people disagreeing.
Kind of the way it is when you hold a strong opinion.

[TequilaSunshine]

Step away from her if she hates you that much.

Doh, that should obviously read if you hate her that much.

[Beeziekn33ze]

OP Are you loudly talking to imaginary children named Merlot and Rioja, Prosecco and Pinot each time Hatie is in earshot? I fear I might be.

[Orlantina]

Katie Hopkins once replied to one of my tweets when I challenged her. It also got retweeted.

[VeraGrant]

I don't care how you justify it. Taking covert photos of her is deeply weird and creepy.

[TequilaSunshine]

I dislike her WORDS and her ACTIONS and what she promotes

So do I. Why are you letting her occupy so much of your holiday though? According to on here, you've been engaging in chit chat (presumably not the type you're putting on here?), you know her room number, you've been taking sneaky snaps that you could or maybe not post on the internet.... etc.
Sound a bit invested. Step away from her if she hates you that much. Get on Twitter and challenge her foul views that way.
This whole thread's nasty.

[S0ph1a]

Objecting to hatred doesn't make you full of hate.

I'm suprised you can't see that.

I dislike her WORDS and her ACTIONS and what she promotes.

Racism, misogyny, homophobia, islamophobia and body shaming don't become ok because it's "another mum" who is doing it.

music she's here for another 9 days, I'm recruiting fat children as we speak . And bribing my five year old to pretend to be breast fed on the sun lounger by the pool .

[MusicForTheJiltedGeneration]

Ach, I was joking.

... unless, there's a fat, ginger Muslim kid there whose mother is extended breastfeeding them ...

[gingerchampion]

I'd go up to her - start a conversation as if to recognise her and then go "oh so Sorry! I thought you were someone famous!"

Seriously OP. In spite of varying opinions I get where you're coming from!

[Orlantina]

Can't you see the irony that some on here seem rather full of hate themselves

There's lots of hate for this individual. The thing about Hopkins is that she focuses on groups. Not individuals.

[TequilaSunshine]

Can't you see the irony that some on here seem rather full of hate themselves.....

[Orlantina]

Or a child with ginger hair?
Or a Muslim child?
How about a mum who is breastfeeding in public?
So many people she hates....

[MusicForTheJiltedGeneration]

Are there any overweight children at the resort OP?

If so, can you bribe them to ask her a stream of random questions all day, every day until she leaves?

[TequilaSunshine]

I go on MN on my hols. Is it really that horrible?

No, nothing wrong with going on MN on holiday, but taking sneaky pictures of another mum when she's on holiday with her kids, and getting into an online conversation with an "ooh! shame her" type tone is horrible.
Or at least it is to nice, normal people.
Yes, she spouts hate filled shite. I couldn't get worked up on holiday about her though and think about "having it out" with her or whatever.
Call her out on her dross on Twitter. She spouts loads of shite to pull her up on on there.

[Orlantina]

Considering she's on holiday, she doesn't seem to be relaxing much given her twitter feed.

[hottotrotsky]

YANBU op. She's an extreme right wing propagandist who has blood on her hands.

I admire your restraint as I would have the physical urge to confront her and gawd knows where that could lead. She makes a living out of radicalising fascists. Her bile re mulims and the final solution is hate speech and is illegal. She's sat by a pool instead of in the clink? Your tongue must be bitten to shreds, op.

[RaspberryBeretHoopla]

I go on MN on my hols. Is it really that horrible?

I don't always feel like reading a book, etc so often MN when on holiday. Especially if it is a particularly relaxing holiday where I have very little to do - exactly the type that I enjoy.

Bunfightery on MN isn't stressful - it's entertaining.

[AwaywiththePixies27]

particularly amused at the posters on their phones telling me to get off my phone

Why? We're not the ones on holiday supposed to be relaxing?

[TequilaSunshine]

As a daily mail reader you will know

oookayyy.....

[FuckYouLinda]

Offer to suncream her back and write "cunt" on it with Factor 50?
