It's been a good weekend for GC media articles.

Great. Much better on Yavin.

But jeezo, the comments!

How depressing in a 'quality' newspaper. Is that the state of the readership of the North Briton these days?

Maybe they are Russian bots - it's the best spin I can put on it.

Great article.

Wow! The comments.....The most persistent clearly did not read, nor even comprehend what the article was about. Just an opportunity to vent. How embarrassing for them - but I don't suppose they have enough self awareness to even realise this.

I didn't have time to read the comments. Sounds like I didn't miss much.

There are some pretty shocking comments, a lot of MRA complaining about uppity women 😕

Absolutely absurd comments by some posters, but I have made a few under this name.
Duncan seems to be a bit unhinged IMO.

oh my god they referred to JY as "him."

Do you know, I think that gives me exactly the feeling that I had as a young teenager when Sinead O'Connor tore up a picture of the Pope. Sort of an "ooh, that's going to provoke some outrage" combination of delight and vicarious shock at blasphemy-that-I-approve-of. The trans movement really is the new establishment religion, isn't it?

Do you have to log in to see comments? It says Comments Zero for me.

It says zero for me too - but if you scroll down they are there! ( not logged in)

It's Disqus comments, which might be temperamental loading on some devices as it's a separate widget.

good article about Meghan. did I mention how much I'm looking forward to hearing her speak this evening?

It is a good article!

Have a good evening tonight!

allmywhat I know exactly what you mean!

Well - next time I dare to think misogyny is in decline I must go and read the comments on the Scotsman. Completely vile, and also quite thick.
