Comment on 1,000,000 children living in most extreme poverty as figure almost trebles since 2017, report finds
BearWolf@lemmings.world 8 months agoMaybe 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.

For the third time… What relevance does it have here?

You know it must be great being the Left. A totally external locus of control. It’s the Tories! It’s the bigots! It’s the billionaires!
I’ll digress a bit here and give you an example. In my country there’s an organisation called Marks21. They say they are a “movement to build a worker’s party.” They’ve existed for more than 20 years now. No worker’s party in sight. But what do they occupy their time with? Endless discussions on gender. And before you accuse me of bashing the woke, this organisation is actually very transphobic.
What I am saying, and you’re wilfully ignoring, is that the left is also to blame here. Not just the Tories. Not just the billionaires.
The left has abandoned common people instead focusing on academia and middle class liberals cosplaying as radicals. This left would rather pal around with woke corporations while denouncing normal people over fringe and esoteric issues like neopronouns.
