  I’ve never met a lefty that even remotely, nevermind wholeheartedly, supports the Tory government. You know, the right wing party that’s been in power for ~13 years. If you think leftists have caused this problem you’ve been living under one big fuck off rock for a long time.

    Who said anything about the Tory government? You really think you have a million hungry children because of the Tories? You’re politially illiterate then.

      Which part of “figure trebles since 2017” were you thinking was the fault of someone other than the tory government, and by what means did they cause it, and what, ffs, has it got to do with pronouns?

      Why do you think we have seen the number of hungry children triple since 2017, if it isn’t the government that has been in power for the past decade plus?

  What is this even supposed to mean? What possible relevance could Twitter or pronouns have to starving children?

    Maybe the left should care more about starving children and less about what JK Rowling posts on Twitter.

    Maybe the left should be building a broad coalition with everyone who’s fed up of there being starving children instead of chastising and cancelling normal working class people for not getting the latest most esoteric gender discourse.

    No. Genders are way more important than children.

      Again: what possible relevance does Twitter or gender have with starving children? People are capable of caring about two things at once, y’know.

        I humbly submit that starving children should take precedence over queers.
