I've already shown you cheered for illegal actions though. You're tying yourself up in circular knots. Why not just say that you don't care about anyone else and you have zero issues with racism? It would be quicker.

It was never legal to close parliament as they tried to do, especially after sending Mogg to lie to the queen.

Well you gave the definition of woke, then called them fools. Sort of contradicts what you're claiming now.

You used woke fools. He's scared of our history being rewritten, so what parts do you think he means? Especially when he's linked it to the removal of statues of folks that made bank on the backs of slaves.

You mean Sikhs? He was wrong, we had 2 million fighting for us across both world wars. Sounds like Mr Fox wanted to rewrite history to exclude the contributions of minorities. What would any normal person think that means about Laurence and his intentions? And why would someone claiming to think that racism is wrong, be supporting his incorrect view of history and race?

He's trying to rewrite the same history he doesn't want rewritten

Yes in a Film "1917"
that was Great, I watched in a 4DX Cinema
just before Covid arrived.
(4DX Cinema is Fantastic)


Fox is in that Film,
it is, his own Visions of what he prefers.

He's not "telling" him anything, he asks him a question;

("Aren't you part of the problem here?")

and instead of answering it properly;

("No I don't think so, and here's why...")

He chooses to not answer it at all or give any reasoning, but instead whinge about his freedom of speech being attacked, when it isn't;

("Waaah waaah I can say what I want u don't get to tell me about my tweetz!")


He's being asked for some sort of reasoning but fails to give any. Why has he even bothered going on if he doesn't want to answer a fairly simple question? Waste of space, waste of time. Not many people's time mind you because it was on GB News.

Tom said something along the lines of "you shouldn't be posting those messages with the big following you have and then in the next sentence he said that Fox should post what he wants him to post to his followers, instead"


If you want to get people vaccinated, then start by getting all these clowns off the television, because most of the country don't believe a word they say, there's zero trust, it has totally gone.

He pointed out the content of the tweets and asked;

"aren't you part of the problem". At no point does he say "you shouldn't". He did say "I do think there is a genuine problem when people with large followings tweet out to many people that they shouldn't take the vaccine" - this is clearly stated as his opinion, and thus, falls entirely under GB News' supposed remit of freedom of expression.

There is a difference, a clear one, between "I think it's a problem" and "you shouldn't do that". You can think something is problematic, and tell them so, whilst conceding their freedom to do whatever they want. I think this may be the idea some people struggle with.

Quote:

No in fact it was Fox who sarcastically asked "should I get a Tom Harwood tweet passport" and then he replied - in the same sarcastic/tongue in cheek tone - "I think everyone should really, that would really help". Pretending that either of these is a serious statement is disingenuous, especially when it was Fox who started that exchange of sarcasm.

Towards the end he says;

"IF you were to tell your legions of followers to get the vaccine..."

Again a speculation/statement of opinion. There's no way to frame this as a demand.

You can't misquote and misrepresent a 1min 30sec video when it's right here in the thread - you posted it! - for everyone to listen to. It even has subtitles for goodness sakes, we can quote it verbatim.

I didn't misquote, I didn't even quote him, I said "Something along the lines of"

Anyway, I couldn't give a sh!t, I said my opinion and that's that, I'm not here for a lecture of you.

Go bother someone else.

You said "something along the lines of" and then posted something that was not "along the lines of" what he said at all, misrepresenting an expressed opinion as a demand, as I pointed out by quoting what he actually said.

If you're not here to debate the content you post, don't post it in debates?
