Sorry MN, but the personal attacks against conservative voters are too much

And they are preventing me enjoying and properly engaging with the site.

Obviously, I realise politics can be divisive and I’ve got no issue at all with robust debate, disagreeing with policies and to be honest, up to a point some name calling and insult exchanging might be expected. Not from me, I might add, but I’m explaining I wouldn’t be making this post if it was one thread or person.

So again I’ve seen ‘sorry but everyone I know who votes Tory is a cunt.’

I don’t think it’s acceptable. It’s happening everywhere - discussions about relationships with friends and families, cunt-Tory dads coming for Christmas, my cunt-ex-best-friend voted tory. There’s a hundred and one wide-eyed ‘but just WHY did people’ threads. And each one has insults that are downright nasty.

I couldn’t vote Corbyn. Difficult decision but there we are. Two words - Lily. Madigan. And if you want a few more, IRA, anti semitism, women’s rights, bankrupt country. I’m sure labour voters are groaning and rolling their eyes but the point is, I don’t judge anyone based on these, so why on Earth is the tory abuse acceptable?

I really think MN needs to step in or the site is going to become a left wing echo chamber.
