BREXIT

...and then you have the likes of Ian...

How?

Was thinking the same. Plus I don't think any lefties have murdered an MP in the last few years. 

Also, a study shows that Corbyn has received more online abuse than any other politician in the run-up to this election, although the Tories have received more overall. 

But I’m not, am I? I’m not denying that abuse happens on social media and I’m not excusing it, but to suggest that it all comes from the Left is deeply dishonest. One quick look at Jeremy Corbyn’s timeline is enough to show that many people from the Right enjoy hurling abuse at Labour figures and some of the stuff they spout is deeply unpleasant. Indeed, as someone who is a pretty regular user of Twitter, not a day goes by when some right wing yahoo isn’t screaming ‘snowflake’ or ‘leftard’ (I know) in my direction.
Away from the bear pit of social media and out in the real world it appears all the political violence has been heading in one direction. Yes, I know the Tories and their media outlets love to highlight every rude word that has been scrawled on a Vote Conservative poster but to suggest that this is equivalent to Labour activists being violently assaulted is hypocrisy of the highest order.

I see Boris Johnson hid in a fridge in Leeds this morning to avoid questions while one of his aides swore loudly at a GMB reporter. But that’s okay because according to the Tory Boys only industrial language from the Left is verboten.

Cannot speak for anyone else on this thread but I’m not trying to convert anybody. I’d have to start questioning my own beliefs and morality if some of the right whingers who post on here were voting the same way as me.

As the nursery rhyme goes;
Sticks and stones may break my bones*
But words will never harm me.

*Also include punching OAPs in the face, throwing old ladies over car bonnets as well as pushing and kicking them.

Do you write those Tory ads, 88% of which have been found to be bullshit?

Indeed, starting to see a lot of this, lots of people being turned off from the constant noise on social media and turning against the left. When someone shouts at you so much some switch off (many have muted a certain someone) but some now want to see the fall-out of a conservative majority on their social media feeds.

I think what we’re seeing here are posters having an internal conversation and engaging in a bout of self-justification for voting Tory tomorrow.
The choices are clear, as are the consequences of another 5 years of Tory rule. The past decade has seen an exponential growth in food banks and homelessness, in-work poverty has soared, as has job insecurity. The NHS is on its knees, we’re heading for an environmental catastrophe and nothing the Tories promise will improve matters for the vast majority of people.
If people were honest enough with themselves and their peers on here they would admit to voting Tory because they are doing alright financially and wish to protect their position, despite it negatively impacting on the most vulnerable.
However to come out with rubbish about some salty tweets from total strangers on a social media platform making them vote Tory is pitiful.

Fair enough if you disagree but don't twist/misrepresent the point here.

Right, so I said that the climate on social media may be having the effect of turning people off labour and that’s a sensible response?

Then it’s said it’s our self-styled justification for voting Tory?

I struggle to follow this argument.

You’ve taken a discussion about how sometimes when you campaign to the point it actually might have reverse effect and taken it as a slight on dear leader. It’s not, it was just a semi-interesting discussion about the current state of social media.

I’d add there’s the added dynamic of young people telling older people how to vote coming across badly as I dare say people 40 and above won’t appreciate it.
