Social media for you huh. Yep, and nope. You can massively reduce it if you choose to. I don't get this crap on my twitter feed, I don't get this crap on facebook. I don't get it from the people I stand next to at the football and I do't get it from the people I went out with last night and shared a bag of chips with. Take back control. A few words of advice from William S Burroughs: Quote If, after having been exposed to someone's presence, you feel as if you've lost a quart of plasma, avoid that presence. You need it like you need pernicious anemia. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 In the States, it looks like the Jussie Smollet (actor from Empire) case is unravelling. He was the subject of an alleged racist attack from a couple of white guys in MAGA hats who poured bleach on him and put a noose around his neck. A shocking crime! However, from reports it looks as though it was all staged and two Nigerian born extras from the show helped stage it. They were arrested and have now been released after (according to rumours) rolling over and cooperating with the feds. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at what the top story of the BBC is about this scumbag having a baby. Why is the top story so we can be sympathetic for her to comeback home? Oh yeah the media don't try to drum up just 'right wing racists' Edited February 17, 2019 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just read it from start to finish and I can't see where it tries to get sympathy for her return.

I'm confused as to what your actual point is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted February 17, 2019 Share Posted February 17, 2019 From my experience on twitter and the like there’s no less truth to that meme than the stereotyping done in the Tory and Brexit threads here. Unless it’s all a false flag attack from the Russian bots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like talking about left and right it's all bull to me so for that part I don't agree with its just the message. Another example sky news have a interview with her trying to 'obtain sympathy' so she can come here. Why they even wasting our time with garbage new stories like this and report the Real news that's going on? Thankfully the home sec seems to not want to welcome this scumbag back which I am happy about. Take the kid off her and arrest her if she manages to get back here.

Sky and the bbc aren’t doing that Dem. She was interviewed. She said she thought she deserved sympathy. Sky and the bbc neither agreed nor disagreed, they didn’t appeal on her behalf, they didn’t censor what she said. They provided information. They’ve also aired the comments of MPs and experts on the legal position and on views on her future and helping her, locking her up, keeping her out etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not directly give their "opinion" but they know it will drive up a debate and sympathy from some areas. I mean who cares about her seriously? She is a grown woman decided to betray her control and has shown no remorse. why they even giving her the time?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
