Katie Hopkins v Louise O Neill!

Not too sure it'd be that entertaining. Hopkins is an all rounder, whereas O'Neill is a specialist.

Would someone be so kind to explain the meaning and origin of the word "woke?

Too lazy to google.

Can it be contained at this stage? Is it terminal?

Maybe not. I think more and more people are thinking and saying get bent to these "progressive" eejits. Now it is coming out in things like that idiot Trump being elected, but that's a symptom of a wider anger and a rejection of much of the "accepted narrative". Watch the #metoo thing start to get a backlash as well. Not over actual genuine victims and genuine perverts, but over the attention seeking bandwagoners of which there are enough. Never mind the public wailing and gnashing of teeth when anyone dares questions their holy mission. EG Liam Neeson.

I'm still confused by the actual title of her latest rant: "What whats constitutes being a 'cool girl'".

Is it a typo by a sub-editor?

did LON not notice that the character who talks about "cool girls" is a murderous sociopath? Although in her reading of Gone Girl she was probably the heroine.

i thought that was a parody, she really wrote that!?

Not intentional parody anyway. The same article had this gem.


I sit there in stunned silence for minutes, hours, days.

I get up, then sit back down then get up and scream; it is guttural, visceral, this scream is coming from some part of myself that I never even knew existed.

And she wonders why she can't keep a lad

backspin.

The melodrama would be high with poor aul Louise.

Louise called Tupac Shakur a "woke bae" and "a ride". Don't think the woman he raped would agree.

Louise raves endlessly about feminism, and the need to address objectification and harrassment of women, and then endlessly objectifies men and focuses relentlessly on her singledom.

She's a bloody hypocritical twat.

greatest hypocrite ever from this interview

here are some "gems"
#SquadGoals / three people you'd invite to a dinner party?
Amy Schumer, Kristen Wiig, and Max Irons for my sexual pleasure. I will objectify him all day every day

The most annoying quality in people?
Standing too close to me on public transport. Oh, and when they don't agree with every word I say. That really irritates me.
And the best?
I find most people to be inherently kind. (I also like to when they agree with every word I say.)

Any goals for 2017?
Same as every year. I want to be healthy and happy. And to get the shift of Max Irons. WHERE ARE YOU, MAX? WHERE ARE YOU?
Dream sandwich?
Me, Max Irons, and Alex Pettyfer.

Reverse what she says to a guy saying this about a woman - she'd be having her daily meltdown on twitter over it

darkdubh

It's not like she can claim she doesn't know that her ideal idea of a male feminist was a sex offender. He was convicted and jailed and it was widely reported at the time, it's not a showbiz secret like Weinstein and Spacey were.

Man, you're either reaching obsession levels with Louise O'Neill or you are her and trying to keep your name relevant.

Yes I was hoping to be more outraged

razorblunt

Any comment from her on the statements made by the woman raped by 2pac?
Has he been downgraded to half asleep bae?

It's unfortunate for Louise that none of the male Irish politicians are "f*ckable" unlike in Canada

For someone who seems to despise the opinions of these twitter folk he appears to do his best to keep them in the public light alright.

We'll know for sure when she starts appearing on the LLS every second week to plug her books.

Thought it was bressie with the way they tweet each other - I don't know which would be a nauseating, irritating couple, her and RT or Bresie

No way would Bressie go from Roz Purcell to Louise O'Neill.

True, she has virtually no baps.

Lads, I literally saw her profile on bumble earlier this month, so I reckon it's unlikely to be either.

That's just too much.:D

Can you imagine if Lou had been on the scene with 2pac and his crew in the mid 90s? They would have really 'respected' her.

She's virtue signalling here and also practicing the 'Bigotry of Low Expectations'. Black males are not held to the same behavioural standards as white males.

The irony of this being racist never seems to dawn on people like her.
