Who do we hate this week?

I saw this on twitter and it so resonates with me.

“Can someone tell me who we are supposed to be hating this week please?

Is it the nurses, railway workers, teachers, or immigrants, and of course we hate the EU all the time.

It is so difficult to keep up”

It is certainly a very stupid post.

In what way, *eazybee". It seems to me to be very rude to say this to a poster without backing your opinion.

Maybe you just don't know how?

I know a lot of Conservatives. And Labour voters. And others. Some are family members. They get on well together as well . The bile filled hatred by some towards any political party is baffling to me.

From the Tory's perspective it doesn't matter so long as our collective hatred is directed not at them. They and the gutter press, aided by their trolls on silos on social media, are really quite adept at continually setting up a focus for hatred. It could be immigrants. Lefty lawyers, civil servants, nurses, the BBC, train drivers, the French, the EU, trade union 'bosses', Channel 4 News, Supreme Court judges, in fact anything but the Tories and their fat cat supporters.

I don't hate a single one of those people. They are my fellow human beings. OTOH, I loathe and detest the tories and their supporters, who don't seem to have a drop of human, or humane, blood in them.

They have been variously described as vermin and scum. I can't help but agree...

As you know I voted for this government, I am neither vermin or scum, nor are any of the Conservatives I know.

Pot, Kettle, Black - What an unpleasant thing to say !.

That is a hate filled post MaizieD 😲

It certainly is, Oreo and I make no apology for it.

In 70+ years I can't recall the tories ever doing a decent thing.

Think it goes back further than a decade, much further.
Plus the population has really gone up here.
It can’t be one thing but many that have gone wrong over the years.

I keep reading on social media all the cries for help from doctors.

It is quite awful. I absolutely hate what this government has done to destroy the NHS we were so proud of just a decade ago.

I'm back from my very icy, foggy walk. Awful here in South Cambs.
I also hate and am in despair that the government has allowed the NHS to fall into the catastrophic crisis that it is in. At the moment my dh and my ddog are both ill and it's the dog who is getting better treatment.

Catastrophic crisis is spot on!
It’s getting really scary.

They prob took it for their door Alioop have heard of this happening before now.

The person who stole a Christmas wreath I put on my Aunt and Uncle's grave. What a hateful, despicable thing to do.

Jeremy Clarkson ... there are no words to explain what he was thinking.

Qatar ... the football was good but what an awful place.

No one here just now except maybe the 3 extremist conspiracy theorists who murdered 2 young policeman and a neighbour who went to assist them in Queensland. The 3 of them were shot and killed by police marksmen I’m relieved to say.

People who don't pick up their dogs poo! I took my dog out, cleaned up after her and walked straight into another dogs deposit. Took an age to get off my boots. 🤮 Lazy blighters.

I hate spam. Scammy emails and spammy emails. I get so many each day.

I hate: People who think they are someone when they are not and who talk to you as if you were deaf and stupid.
