Guest Ungagger here in solidarity with prolific tweeter Neil, who gave us live coverage of the latest roaster spectacular 'Failure in Freedum Square'...so that we didn't have to. Thanks Neil 👌. On a serious note though, how sad is the place where we find ourselves now (thread)
How many of us looking on remembered 19th September 2014, the invasion of the unionist fash and their violent victory outing in that same square, then the resignation of Salmond as FM and we felt really hammered, bur there was a strong sense of solidarity..
Those post 18the Sept days were the absolute pits, but we bashed on best we could. Found our own activism; our voice in an online forum, or joined a party or pressure group. Now look at the betrayal by those absolute charlatans who profess to speak for us as a movement and weep..
Sometimes you have to laugh at the characters trying to trash our movement and everything we've added to it with their bigotry and crass stupidity, and sometimes you just need to know that others see it too. We'll keep calling them out. They do NOT speak for us as a movement...
The Sheridans, Salmonds, McAlpines and others have injured people in their crushing narcissistic obsession with power, that has little or nothing to do with independence. Many of us spent very precious time and energy in their sphere. For me it was Common Weal..
It can feel as if you've been duped, but please be reassured that every bit of effort and energy has been part of our growth as a movement, even as some kick the feet from under us. They won't win. Most folk are decent. We'll get this sorted. ✌💪
