General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Everyone in this thread is dunking on you because your opinion is disagreeable to their values

It's because they're denying people basic human rights, not a simple disagreement

Nobody is trying to critically understand your argument

There isn't any logic to it, so this is an impossible waste of time

The truth is, this behaviour is not "keeping nazis out",

Objectively less Nazis here than places that don't allow proper treatment of them, so wrong there

its not "being inclusive", it's the antithesis of all inclusive behaviour

Learn about the paradox of intolerance, you're way behind the rest of the class here

however I respect that you stand against this mindset that has completely plagued everyone here, that we cannot challenge anything that goes against the ideals of the Fediverse

"I respect open transphobia based on ignorance" fuck off, scum

Yeah, that's about the level of thought I'd expect from you... checks notes 2 weeks later, really?

Pathetic
