Tommy Robinson, the court case and (guffaw) 'free speech'

[krink]

anyone else?

got it to work on laptop but not on my phone.
however you now owe me a laptop as I smashed mine up to try to stop the stupid

 

[Treacle Toes]

Why have they been banned now?

 

[MightyTibberton]

They revealed that they are Scottish.

 

[MightyTibberton]

(That was a joke. Sorry. I dunno...)

 

[Poi E]

Fair dos. Rebellious Scots to crush or something.

 

[Treacle Toes]

This footage from earlier in the month popped up today... What absolute charmers.

 

[andysays]

Hang on a minute? Why was Cheeseypoof banned for supporting this cunt, yet there are people posting in support on here today?

Persecuted by the state for her political action, obvs...

 

[butchersapron]

It's ok, they still have their beavis account.

#FreeCheesey

This. (And I in no way agree with her TR views.)

 

[Ax^]

do think maybe it should not be a perma ban

as i do like Cheesy but showing support for Fash should get you a ban on here

surprised Rsf was allowed go so long as it was clearly an attempt an alt right name check Bingo

 

[Treacle Toes]

'I'd rather be a Nazi than a Muslim'

Classy chants for classy folks.

Actual racism/offensiveness should get you a ban, but not simply being a 'fan' of someone. Also just adds to the whole martyr thing, which the right love to claim. Sod that.

Is it true he fucks a goat in chapter four?

Nanny state

Not good. But the imaginatively worded "Tommmm Tommy Tommy Tommmmy, Tommy Tommy Tommy Robinson" one has become a bit of an unwanted earworm.

maybe i'm blinkered but if you on here saying "free Tommy" and meaning that shit maybe its time for an enforced holiday as you clearly dropped down a rabbithole of being a fucking asshat

"oh he just randomly stubbled into many groups that are known for being like to Fash/racist groups"

 

[treelover]

A relatively large number of people on the demonstration carried Hamas or other Islamist placards and banners. There was some shouting of Allahu akbar, but from what I can gather there were no anti-semitic slogans shouted. Though Weyman Bennett of the SWP’s central committee was heard demanding that Israeli Jews “should go back to where they came from … New York or wherever

http://www.cpgb.org.uk/worker/752/marchingforgaza.html

Robinson didn't look very well,

I see Weyman Bennet was outside, SWP/UAF/SUTR, in 2009, he was cited as saying the above by the CPGB, in Hyde Park 2009, no otther witnesses

and yes i still think it is worth putting here.

link dead

Speaking out against the slur of antisemitism

There was also this Conference in 2016, where many of the controversies around A/S were discussed, many of the individuals backing Corbyn on it were present, inc challenging the IHRA defintions of AS.

Robinson didn't look very well

I thought he looked in really good shape, like he'd been hitting the gym and eating healthy in there.
Maybe should have stayed in a little longer for his general wellbeing.

Another argument is that if Cheesy trots off to a far right forum where only far right views are heard, she'll never be 'saved'. Ghettoising of political views isn't healthy.

How about taking your whining to the feedback forum and the thread about this awful banning?

Come off it. Cheesy has been a member here for many years. She has/had good mates here too, none of which are alt-right fawning fan-girls/boys who have gone from obsessing over Prince/Milo/Pete Doherty to coming out in support of the likes of TR. If being here for all this time couldn't stop her disappearing up her own arse and into the clutches of fash, keeping her around won't either.

If you want to save her off you go.

 

[Johnny Vodka]

If you want to save her off you go.

Nah, I don't know her away from here.

i'd rather have seen her here getting the full treatment and maybe reconsidering her viewpoint

but as has been said how is that going to help her when she been here over 10 years

 

[Treacle Toes]

Nah, I don't know her away from here.

Whether you know her away from here really isn't the point is it?

You seem to want to make a case for her to be un-banned...what do you think about the other points I made above in that regard?

 

[Monkeygrinder's Organ]

Meh. In general I wouldn't wish her self absorbed shite on anyone but I'll make an exception for actual Nazis.

 

[billbond]

One thing about these types that I always find odd is they tend to think that being a parent sort of gives them the right to hold dodgy views

Wtf is the logic "yay my dick works now I can be fash without anyone being able to pull me on it "

The stuff about her obsessing? I just think bans, particularly perma ones, should be saved for the worst of the worst, for all the reasons I've given above. I haven't seen Cheesy make any actual racist comments on here, just the stuff that implies she has some sympathy for TR. I'm sure people who've said or done worse things have been allowed to continue to post on here. She's all over the place, but that's part of her "charm". Anyway, this discussion is probably a pointless, given the decision has been made.

Tommy is gay.

Didn't you like it

 

[ddraig]

Didn't you like it

even if TR was gay, it's not a fucking insult is it now, sort it out
