There’s one near me that’s only about 200 meters. Nothing joining for miles in either direction.
I suppose it puts a tick in a box somewhere.

So it’s more a case of general ‘mob mentality’ rather than a belief in their bigoted cause? That makes sense.
- Comment on Boy, 15, is first person charged with riot over recent English disorder 2 months ago:
It’s good they’ve started with the online ‘influencers’, but is it likely that so many young (11-15 iirc) kids became so radicalized so quickly just from these online sources?
- Comment on Boy, 15, is first person charged with riot over recent English disorder 2 months ago:
Interesting. Edited my 1st comment for clarity, hopefully.
- Comment on Boy, 15, is first person charged with riot over recent English disorder 2 months ago:
Interesting downvotes.
So people want the adults that radicalized these kids to get off with no punishment?
That’s a hot take I didn’t expect from here!

So they will be going after the groomers next, right? Right?

Seems a little too interested in certain subjects, gets banned from multiple places on multiple instances for trolling, has multiple people explain this to them, still asks the same question repeatedly.
Looks like they are trying to make a ‘name’ for themselves. Goal achieved, probably not quite as intended unfortunately.
Just another addition to the blocked list I suppose.

Yep, racist cunts!

- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
Tit for tat with some forgiving, even more so. I’m attempting the ‘forgiving’ part.
- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
I’m prepared to lose contact with people that are problematic or toxic, especially those with the more radical views, but it’s not nice to watch someone I’ve known for many years gradually lose all their friends for similar reasons.
- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
While I do completely agree with all your points, I don’t see what I can learn from mocking someones ‘wonky lip’ or ‘saggy eye lids’ for example.
And for context, this isn’t a new issue, it’s been brought up a good few times over the last year or so.
- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
No it’s not. It’s how to help someone recognize toxic traits and hope they want to stop.
If they were to see that behavior as toxic but wish to continue with it anyway, that’s fine. It just won’t be around me any more.
- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
Thank you for the excellent response!
The problem seems to be a mental disconnect they just cant overcome.
Immediately after criticizing some racist news story (so not all bad!) they then mocked the reporter or news reader for their appearance.
I pointed out the hypocrisy of that being just the same as how racism starts. I don’t think it sunk in in any meaningful way though.
- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
Based on many other things, and that was my first response too, I don’t think they are capable of self reflection enough for that to sink in.
Seems to be a worrying trend these days.
- Comment on How Do You Explain to a Fully Grown Adult That Constantly Mocking Others' Appearance (Even on TV) is Toxic Behavior? 2 months ago:
I tried that kind of approach yesterday.
Their response was to mock someone else on TV.
I’ve mentioned it a couple of times now. Last time I told them even if they cant see the issue with it, it bothers me and other people, so cut it out.
The response was something like “yeah other person says that to me too”.
That’s when I start to wonder why I bothered.
