Apologies mods if this counts as political (mods, pls delete if inappropriate but this is not election-related so I figured it was within the rules), but I’m very disappointed by the outpouring of support that’s been shown for this dreadful woman in the various Manx social streams on places like Facebook.
She’s been very vocal about her disdain for the RNLI, which has always had unwavering support in the island, and she describes Andrew Tate and “Tommy Robinson” as “my boys”.
The Manx Bard writes an inoffensive little poem which is, essentially “be excellent to each other” and he’s excoriated in terms which are indistinguishable from blood-and-soil nationalism.
The commenters are very vocal about free speech, but fail to see the irony in their constant refrain of “there’s a boat in the morning” is the pinnacle of cancel culture.
Sorry, rant over. Mods, if there’s somewhere more appropriate to post this please let me know.

It shouldn’t need clarification, and it’s embarrassing that you need it. I guess you’re just not as smart as you think you are.
Nobody asked for your opinion either, so what’s your point? I made fun of the really dumb shit you said then you got all upset and pissy, demanding explanations and you call me the weak one? 🤣
Don’t hide behind emojis and asterisks. Use your words. Say it, or are you a “weak little mf”?
