Season 2, Episode 2: The problem with "leftiness"
I'm so tired of fighting with people I agree with or losing support for people because of their behaviours. Seeing people thinking it's ok to be out and out xenophobic but it's ok because you're a Lexiteer, deflecting responsibility for your behaviours because you can't possibly be a bad person, right? Or just out and out partaking in bad behaviour under the smokescreen of "being a left winger".
The right is a seething cesspit of idiocy. But the left is caught somewhere between apologism for disgusting behaviour or looking at someone with whom we should ally and attacking them for dissenting views.
If your politics are nutty, flavourful and of use- maybe you should be able to defend them without resorting to open cruelty, ridiculous behaviour or stereotyping people out of relevance.
The UK can do better.
So when are we going to.
