Urban v's the Commentariat

[Libertad]

White's analysis of Allende and Chile leaves much to be desired as you might imagine. Meanwhile, he has endorsed Jones.

Condescending cunt and I've just told him as much.

Make of this what you will. Eduardo Frei didn't have a tache, but if he did, it would probably have been a Whitey. #Tashology

Wtf

 

[DaveCinzano]

Here's an important lesson every Guardian reader seems to need to learn either from books or the hard way -the likes of Michael White will always be on the sides of the bosses and the death squads; not necessarily with the stomach for actually pressing the gun barrel into the eye socket, clamping the electrodes to the genitals or pulling the knife across the infant's throat, but always with the weasel words to 'explain' why it is necessary or inevitable or desirable.

Condescending cunt and I've just told him as much.

Me: "You and Jones have lost all sense of reality. You have no experience of austerity in your "real lives". Don't condescend to me."

White: "The only difference between you condescending to me and me doing ti back is that I do it on purpose. Best wishes"


Cheeky cunt.

 

[Libertad]

Me: @MichaelWhite Condescension comes easy to you given your lofty position. Me, I have to try a little harder. I lack aspiration obviously.

Feel free to wade in, I'm not so sure I have the tools to level this apologist for fascism as my bayonet is not long enough.

 

[tufty79]

Take it from Taki...

Aha! Wise words from an undisputed non-rabid racist right-winger

Heartening for folk who can't afford twenty quid for a meal, isn't it?

 

[J Ed]

Food deserts are an actual thing which cause malnutrition for working-class Americans, it's just a crass thing to say

She just blurts these things out without thinking.

I don't know why she doesn't just take a few snacks with her. A pot noodle, a couple of pieces of fruit and a packet of biscuits will cost a lot less than twenty quid.

 

[Bakunin]

Personally, I can't remember the last time I spent twenty quid on a single meal.

 

[fractionMan]

luckily for her, someone else is paying for dinner anyway

Or some Angel Delight, which as we all know as a food dessert.

*gets coat*

In that case her comment is even more disingenuous - she could have tweeted grateful thanks to whoever bought her dinner as a token of gratitude.

I wouldn't say I'm a l33t cybergeek ubermensch like urban75 poster and "top 10 to 1" percenter of society Laurie, but I h@><0r3d the internet using a secret tool called 'googlemaps' and found a McDonald's beside the conference hotel, plus 2 pubs, an Italian restaurant and a shop a few minutes walk away. I also found €5 on the path yesterday, but that was analogue skillz.

An actual thing for the working class everywhere. I have a cousin who lives outside of Norwich. Nearest "corner shop" is a mile (and ridiculously expensive), nearest choice of shops 3 miles, no car, and the bus service sucks like an industrial vacuum cleaner.

Same. I usually have a main course too.

 

[killer b]

tbf, I'd probably moan on twitter if it was 20 quid for a meal in a hotel I was staying in too.

I would go to McDonalds instead

 

[killer b]

yeah, then I'd go to macdonalds. It's a weird thing to be complaining about here though - why not wait until she actually posts something shit? It won't be long...

 

[J Ed]

It was the food desert comparison rather than the complaining about the expense of food in the hotel that prompted me to post it up

 

[killer b]

Is that any worse than complaining about being starving?

Well it would be about as annoying as complaining about being starving because the mulipack crisps in the cupboard no longer contain any prawn cocktail flavour.
