More on Trump

It is a Trump world and as the Modi saying goes

“Aab Ki Baar Trump Sarkar”

and as the Stump for Trump Sisters say

"Get on the Trump Train or get the hell out of the way"

Rock'n'roll

Just "she" would be polite, if you have that capability.

Certainly, as you wish.

I'm happy to see that you understand how this works now. What you call political correctness, requests for particular pronouns - which strangely you were so dismissive of the other day - it's just politeness. Respect for others. Not hard really, is it?

claig · 20/12/2016 14:35

' Because I couldn't find anything.'

Try looking a bit harder. Germaine Greer is an absolute legend - on womens' rights and humanity's rights, debating against the Iraq War, agaisnt the Blairites nd everything she has done.

There aren't many intellectuals and figures that equal her in stature and to watch these politically correct puppets and nobodes restrict her free speech is an insult to all of us

I want her to say whatever the hell she likes on national TV and in any university so that we all remain free.

Surely, claig, you will welcome the freedom of those who disagree with Germaine Greer to say they don't want to hear her speak.
Freedom of speech and all that.
They are only speaking their minds.

Like when Trump called journalists and told them to stop printing things against him. He has that freedom to say he wants to censure news, the news people then have the right to ignore him.

'Respect for others. Not hard really, is it?'

Then why has it taken you so long to learn it?

"Just to let you know that it was me who has been reported. And I have been warned by MNHQ for goading Southallgirl"

Reported by who, then?

Are you Missswatch? Grin

Where was GG actually prevented from speaking, as you have told us insistently?

claig · 20/12/2016 14:41

'They are only speaking their minds. '

What minds? They are intellectual pygmies compared to Germaine Greer. Some students invited her to speak and soe Establishment puppets decided she should not be allowed to. This is George Orwell, it is Blairism and it is sinister.

You mean the pronouns? I had no idea you identified as a woman.

I can't be bothered to provide the link for you just so that you can make another 50 snide posts. If you really care about it, you can look it up.

Really, Bertrand? Well I'll be darned. And we all thought the right were all "anything goes, don't censor my free speech". Hmm.

claig · 20/12/2016 14:45

'I had no idea you identified as a woman.'

Is this "identified" politically correct speech, is this cis and stuff?

But Claig you love posting links. I think you must have just made this one up.

Kaija · 20/12/2016 14:47

"Is this "identified" politically correct speech, is this cis and stuff?"

No, just correct. I obviously know nothing about your biological status, only that you prefer to be known as "she".

You've never seemed bothered by it until today, but I apologise if you were offended - I just always heard you as a male voice.

Missswatch · 20/12/2016 14:48

Can't stand Greer myself. What put me off was when she was on QT and she tapped Dimbleby to interrupt when someone was refuting her. Hoff Summers and Paglia are good though, despite feminists rejecting them

Kaija · 20/12/2016 14:49

All feminists, missswatch?

Missswatch · 20/12/2016 14:49

And the whole 'little girls learn to flirt from Daddy'

Odd fantasies she has

claig · 20/12/2016 14:51

'"anything goes, don't censor my free speech'

MN has Talk Guidelines to foster debate. Goady stuuf that is intended to be hostile and snide just hinders debate on ideas.

Unfortunately, some good posters who understand politics have gone, such as Spinflight, and Chris, another good poster, nearly went because of the amount of goady snide posts with personal attacks that divert from discussion of Trump and politics.

Southallgirl has ben repeatedly asked a question about "what does she feel she isn't allowed to say?" etc which is a complete diversion from the thread and Trup.

I did, and as I told you, couldn't find anything.
So, no evidence, it didn't happen and you lied.

Kaija · 20/12/2016 14:52

Spinflight and Chris? I had a few personal attacks from them myself. I don't think they were scared off the boards.

Lweji · 20/12/2016 14:53

Actually, she was invited to speak, and students protested. She still gave her speech.

Look it up.

claig · 20/12/2016 14:53

'You've never seemed bothered by it"

I have been and have told you before but I know how rude you can be and how you accused me of being "far right" and asked whether I was a "white supremacist" etc so I just took it as being the way you operate

OP posts:
Lweji · 20/12/2016 14:54

So, where is this University where GG was prevented from speaking?

claig · 20/12/2016 14:55

' I don't think they were scared off the boards.'

They weren't scared, Spinflight probably rightly decided that it was a waste of time with so many snide posters not discussing Trump

Can we get back to the thread topic and off the point scoring?

Lweji · 20/12/2016 14:56

Funny that when I challenge lies, I'm told I'm snidey.

The truth?
