Unfriending right wing friends

[nondrinker1985]

One of my school mum friends of around 10 years has started sharing loads of Restore Britain/Rupert Lowe posts.

I’m actually really shocked as she’s an Irish immigrant herself.

I’ve unfriended her which is a shame as day to day she’s ok. Also another mum who has been liking and commenting on the Restore Britain posts, they’ll probably tell me they’re not racist but I can’t be arsed calling them out.

What is the acceptable number?

Sorry I just assumed it would be the Green Party. Just narrowing things down. The Greens seem to be the latest lefty fad now that Labour are doing so badly.
I haven't read much into Reforms policies if I'm honest, I very much doubt I'll vote for them mainly because I really dont like Farage.
Don't think any of the parties will do anything to help women at all. But as a woman, I feel that the biggest threat to me and my daughters is unvetted men from different cultures coming here in their thousands. Recent rape/assault cases involving illegal immigrants have even stated lack of cultural awareness as being an excuse for the attack.
That's fact, whether you disagree with it or not.
So whilst I agree misogyny is evident in the likes of Farage (Starmer too) I am not at the same time waving signs saying Refugees welcome.

Well good to know Musk’s cash is being spent so well and the misinformation is out there, discussed and reiterated as fact.
Not so sure why we need foreign investors and puppet masters controlling how Britain is Restored - or Reformed - but here we are.
But it’s also very disingenuous to stand behind Lowe, Tiny Tim, Musk et Al and pretend it’s nothing to do with being a racist bigot - just own it.
It’s even more ridiculous to think these people have Britain’s or British people’s interests at heart - they prioritise their own pockets, occasionally I think some will also wish for the opportunity to be aggressively and overtly punishing to any non indigenous English - yes I use English not British here as most commonly it is about Ingerland.
Personally, if I see people posting advocating racism and violence then I assume they are racist and violent - and dissociate, just as my lifelong Tory voting parents always told me - mind guess their Tory era is radical left nowadays.

Shouldn't we deport people who arrive illegally? I can't get back into this country without producing a passport and without going through security. Should migrants be treated differently?

Should families of grooming gang members who knew and said nothing, not face consequences? They are just as guilty. Just like if your child or your father committed a crime and you said nothing, you would be guilty too.

Pakistan have refused to take back their citizens who have committed crimes. Should there not be consequences?

There is a link between some immigrants and incidents of sexual violence. Would you prefer that we didn't talk about it?

There should be a deterrent for economic illegal migrants. At the moment, they think our streets are paved with gold and talk of them being moved into council housing and jumping waiting lists isn't helping, word is getting round and it makes them want to keep coming. It is OK to not want them to keep coming - how many is too many? We cannot afford it and we don't have the resources.

Why is that relevant?

My next door neighbours are British Muslims. They're more right wing than anyone on here!

The quotes are accurate - I checked before posting. You can read them here instead if you like;

It's cute that you think "lefties" are big fans of Kier Starmer's Labour.

Honestly.,

Good on her for not trying to peddle that one. She’s right, it’s why other countries still in the EU are struggling with the same migration issues. No one is ‘sending everyone back’ as in pp.

Your first point, we do have a responsibility to help those esp from war torn countries or where their lives are in danger. But without the ability to claim asylum to the UK from their own country, they are left with little choice but to make the journey and enter illegally.
It will be a very sad day when the UK loses its ability to be human to those in need.

well marco rubio and his speech to the munich security conference certainly is attempting to pressurize all the eu countries for a more white christian population with old school national pride.
unfriend who ever you want but until the eu (uk included in this) breaks away from the usa the white nationalistic movement is coming your way. donald trump (and republicans for years to come) will be forcing leaders hands to do as he pleases (deportation of people of color).

But people arriving on boats went up after brexit and because of a few reasons. The fact remains that the boats went up after brexit. This happened. And other think tanks have put some importance on the ability to return and the database, as well as other issues.

Brexit was a tory thing. I was responding to the poster who blamed everything on Labour, if you'd read my whole post.
😘

There are lefties who are racist, homophobic, antisemitic, misogynist etc etc just as there are right wingers who are not. It is juvenile to pretend that everyone who leans to the Right is a fascist, and similarly foolish to assume that people who lean to the Left are angels. It's almost entirely left voting people who have been busy destroying Women's rights to privacy, dignity and safety by pretending that men can be women. Very misogynist. Unlike Kier Starmer, Kemi Badenoch is very clear that men cannot become women. Left wingers like Corbyn have often been shown to be antisemitic. The UK left has never had a female Prime Minister and has rarely seen women's issues as particularly pressing. And supported P. I. E, the pro paedophile movement not that long ago. To be completely honest i would say that "Left" & "Right" are fairly meaningless nowadays. Not a sensible way to judge friends I'd suspect.

Answer a question with a question.

You're either a man who thinks preventable rape and murder of women and children is acceptable, as long as it's not in the hundreds of thousands - or you're a woman who thinks this.

Either way, you assume you're immune.

I do the same . I’m not arrogant enough to think only my opinion matters ( to quote PP) but I don’t shove my beliefs down peoples’ throats and don’t want to be faced with vitriol & propaganda that offends me

Yep. I have commented on such posts before unfriending quite a few on SM, including family members.

Lots and lots of presumptions! Wow! Any other make believe coming my way?

You don't dare to answer the question.

Rupert Lowe attracting worse scum than Farage.

We need ice in the UK!

you can all agree to disagree on whatever politics but some of these people are scum and would be volunteering for the gestapo. One comment ‘ I’d do it for free every weekend’

they would show no mercy to innocent human beings

this isn’t a political difference

But people arriving on boats went up after brexit

Huge increase in asylum applications in the EU as well;

France and the Republic of Ireland have both had their highest ever number of asylum seekers in the last few years.

You butted in on a question I asked someone else, to a, not answer and b, ask me a question instead in order to go on the attack?

Conversation is fun with you, eh?

I’d say exactly the same about the Greens, which is why I’d vote for neither party. Both of them have totally farcical economic plans. Both of them have leaders lying to the electorate. Both of them spread vile hate. There’s not much point saying one is bad and the other is good because they’re both as bad as each other.

I feel sorry for the centrist parties that have a moral backbone and have to live in the real world, not the farce that is the Greens and Reform.

I’ve got enough friends that I can choose not to have ones who are racists thankfully. I would bin their ignorant assess and not think twice.

Good on her for not trying to peddle that one

Yes, I thought so too.
