Sephiroth Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 Cat hasn?t twigged that Brexit has screwed and divided the country and the country will remain that way until it?s addressed No one is complaining about Brexit more than people who voted for Brexit but he doesn?t complain about them (he can?t even mention them normally because that would mean facing up to the reality)This forum, me, and all of us could disappear tomorrow. But cat will still have to listen to people complaining and face the consequences of his gamble for pretty much rest of his life Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/283357-downing-street-trust/page/3/#findComment-1508469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheCat Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 I'm going to guess that most people on this forum support decarbonisation of the economy, and alignment with the Paris COP 2 degree limit. I'm also guessing they're not crying tears for the coal miners losing their livelihoods, becuase they believe in the overall greater good of such aims. Similarly most leavers will believe in the overall greater good of brexit for the Uk...and know that some people will be negative impacted.Every political or economic decision has winners and losers. This strawman that many remainers seem to have created, claiming that leave supporters were all saying there would be no downside and sunlit uplands for everybody, is exactly that. A strawman.No matter how successful (or not) brexit will end up being, you will always be able to point to someone, somewhere that has been disadvanatged. Particularly with such a massive change like leaving the EU.Industries and society will evolve, some people will lose their livelihood, some will gain new ones, how it all evolve will depend a lot on policy over the next 5-10 years as I've said almost ad nauseam.

Sephiroth Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 It?s amazing how labour (for example) can never get near power with anything that whiffs of anything too left wing. The excuse ?don?t worry. Always winners and losers. Give it 10 years. You?ll see? doesn?t wash there.

You are bordering on whataboutery trolling. Engage with the points ffs.For the record, some of us DID care when miners were losing their jobs, because you see, as much as you want to deflect from answering the here and now questions about the impacts of something you are so wedded to, with some assumed search for hypocrisy, there is a principle here. A principle that you don't trash the economy for some ideological jingoistic jolly.Moving away from fossil fuels for example has credibility. Sure, there is a debate to be had around the best way to do that, but that debate always includes how to transfer jobs. With Brexit, there wasn't even any acknowledgement of job losses, let alone how to overcome the impacts on livelihoods. So it is no surprise that a die hard like you refuses now, even with the evidence hitting you in the face, to discuss it. Now debate like an adult or give it up.

TheCat Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 Sure. Even though all the words above are copy and paste from what 'you guys' have said when anyone post something a bit lighthearted. But when someone who disagrees with the EDF zeitgiest posts it, it's "whataboutery trolling"Of course, when you guys post it, it's just fighting the good fight....Understood.'Debate like an adult'...God you make me laugh. And the funniest thing is you actually are serious. If you actually read and listened to anything I personally have said over the years, you wouldn't be claiming rubbish like "there wasn't even any acknowledgement of job losses".You seemingly would prefer to 'debate' against a charactiture of what you think a leaver is, rather than what I (and some others) have actually said on here. But to be fair that would involve actual thinking, so sorry if asking too much.I dont know how many times I've acknowledge various drawbacks of brexit. Of course there are. But to then be constantly told that 'no one acknowledge any downside, not even one" and 'there are no positives about brexit, not one' just shows a lack of any intention to have this 'grown-up' debate you apparently so crave....

Sephiroth Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 You have acknowledged job losses and downsides yes cat. But as I?ve said repeatedly if Brexit was sold as your version it wouldn?t have passed.

But I have my own reasons and rationale for supporting brexit (again, as I've said many times). But as one of the few vocal leavers on this forum, it appears all remainer rage at any and all leavers can often be focussed on my comments, regardless of what has actually been said. I really don't care what was written on the side of a bus, or how distasteful some other leaver supporters may or may not be. I find some prominent remain supporters to be quite odious, but I hope I"'ve never conflated them with you. I find you odious for completely independent reasons:) Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/283357-downing-street-trust/page/3/#findComment-1508691 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blah Blah Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 And yet Cat, still you persist with the passive aggressive attitude. You continue to accuse everyone of never listening to you, or reading your posts properly. People do read your posts properly and when they counter argue with a response you can't argue with, you resort to this passive aggressive victim complex crap. The number of times you derail threads with this egotistic nonsense is exhausting. The last word belongs to no-one, and especially not you.

Brexit is a con trick that is going to impact most on those who voted for it (as the fishing sector is finding out).

TheCat Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 It's funny how people are only egotistic/exhausting/passive aggressive when they disagree with you. It's very easy to gloss over the same characteristics/flaws in other people's posts when one agrees with what they are saying. The number of times you've chosen to not reply/change the topic/make wild assumptions when faced with an argument you can't or won't engage with is quite long....So please be careful about throwing too many of those stones.

So Cat, will it really need a couple of terrorist bombs to go off for you to understand how precarious this all is for the GFA? Or do you genuinely not give a hoot.

TheCat Posted May 2, 2021 Share Posted May 2, 2021 If you spent as much effort discussing the topic rather than discussing me and my posting style you might actually have a case to rest.I'd like to try to stay on topic, but I don't really know what you want me to say. Even sephiroth has acknowledged that I have previously acknowledged job losses and downsides. So I don't know how you expect me to actually adress your 'case'...when your main point above seems to be that "there wasn't even any acknowledgement of job losses"....how many times would you like me to concede the same point?
