A short thread on whether the honking great bellend @BorisJohnson can reasonably be called โ€œa fascistโ€โ€ฆ ๐Ÿ˜–โœŠ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ #ToriesOut #BellendusMaximus #CummingsOut #FatbergOfDishonesty
I have often posted about the creeping fascism โฌ‡๏ธ in the Cummings/Johnson regime, & attracted much ridicule from unthinking Brexity types. They are keen to avoid inconvenient factual analysis... ๐Ÿ˜โœŠ๐Ÿ‡ป๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ #StopFascism #ToriesOut
Do I therefore think @BorisJohnson is โ€œa fascistโ€..? No, heโ€™s too uninterested in ideas to maintain any kind of ideology, even a lunatic oneโ€ฆ Moreover, literally his only concern in life is *himself*. ๐Ÿ˜–

In this #COVID19 crisis, some worry about having a eugenics nutjob like Cummings in charge... Before rubbishing this as alarmist, please consider Charles Trevelyan, the Treasury official placed in charge of relief during the Irish famine in the1840s. โฌ‡๏ธ๐Ÿ˜ โœŠ๐Ÿฆ  #ToriesOut ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช
We tend to assume that our government would *never* consciously do anything to damage its own people... Trevelyan, however, took the psychopathic view that the famine was divine intervention on the feckless poor... โฌ‡๏ธ ๐Ÿ˜–โœŠ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช #history #famine #Ireland #capitalism
This was at a time when - even during the years of famine - Ireland was exporting around 300,000 tons of grain to England per annum. Fully *one million* Irish people are believed to have died due to the famine, and around two million emigrated. ๐Ÿ˜ โœŠ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช #resist #ToriesOut
