The Pushback against Leftism

Sinn Fein seem to be the left wing party here that has most hope of going into government. Even though they have drifted into the centre fairly rapidly in the past few years. They may need support from PBP to form a government though. I had hoped PBP would be history after the next election but with inflation and people having less money their pockets Murphys "blame the rich" tax the rich and give it to layabouts will possibly see them hold Thier seats.

I hope PBP go in with SF after the next election because they will minimise the damage SF can do, as the first sign of trouble Murphy and Barrett will collapse the government

That is a total misrepresentation of what the poster said.

I'll ask again what defines working class?

You keep talking about working class opinions, so what is the working class.

Is a teacher/guard/ nurse working class? what defines working class to you, since you keep talking about them.

I doubt that geezer knows the difference between Trotskyism and the trots.

Culture war bullshit

Ah yes. Anything that isn't left wing is a conspiracy theory.

Modern political rhetoric is incredibly dull.

Why are there so many posters on here that can't distinguish between Neo-Liberalism, Libertarianism and the "tHe lEft"?

Fucking bizarre.

"unrestricted inward migration" is not necessarily a "left wing" ideal. The right absolutely love cheap imported labour because it drives down wages and working conditions, and that doesn't change when they're in power. They just have a song and dance about not wanting it and blaming it on a bogeyman.

interesting, so instead of fixing the infrastructure problems mentioned, lets just stop foreigners coming in?

Liberal hippie dippie parents are also getting annoyed when their kids are on waiting lists for house's, and they're starting to wonder is all their sociatial liberal view points beneficial in the long run. While their daughter who's 26 and has a kid isn't getting a roof over their head, but others are walking over her and getting turn key accomoation. - who is the problem here, foreigners or layabouts? or the middle-class liberals? pick a side

But don't **** on our own in need, and leave them till last. - theyre not mutually exclusive though, we just have a terribly run government who are profiting personally from the current system

Back in my time a straight lad could say Jason over abroad in the valley is a handsome looking man, a good looking fellow the women love him. Then there was a glitch in the late 80's until the mid 90's if you find another guy attractive you're a gay or a bender, but it was just childish slagging. Say that today and you're cancelled. - .........what? i honestly dont understand your point here. you want to be able to mock gay people again? or you want to be able to use 'gay' etc, as an insult? id say get over it tbh.......

None of these woke self proclaimed liberal people are funny or witty. They're souless for the want of a description. Dead eye's in their heads. - id say they'd say the same about you tbh, absolute bollox

they had no proper upbringing and never had a good slap to wake them up. - the contradiction there is glaring

but I only got the wooden spoon a few times and had a great upbringing. - from your post thats very questionable

Isn't it mad how it's turned out that modern self proclaimed liberals are like Nazi's now and anything but liberal. - thats the vocal extremist minority who are heard more often that not nowadays because controversy drives clicks. the majority of 'left' leaning people are much closer to the centre (not that i agree with labelling politics anyway tbh). its a similar thing on both 'sides'

People are starting to wake up to the lies and manipulation. - what lies?

I'd never believed poles or stats, they're only a distraction. - fair enough with poles, but you do realise stats are generally facts right? question where they come from absolutely but if theyre from a sound source then you should absolutely believe them, the fact that you dont explains alot
