This has me absolutely fuming for some reason. Also, it's stupid on so many levels.

1. What's the problem with getting money and fame by appearing on TV? Almost anyone would do it if they could. This snobbery needs to end.

2. There are hundreds of unis in the UK, there is only one Love Island.

3. Many people will have signed up for LI for a laugh, you don't tend to do that for well established unis like Cambridge.

4. It's insanely difficult to get into Cambridge, whereas anyone can apply for Love Island.

5. People who go on Love Island don't leave thousands of pounds in debt.

6. It's just a stupid tweet.

Do you agree? Is this the worst tweet ever?

It's quite ironic that he's insinuating people are lazy/stupid with that tweet, when his assumption is completely those things.

Yeah obviously less people are going to apply for Cambridge as it's difficult to get a place there, whereas like you said - ANYONE can apply for Love Island

Yeah I agree with all those points. The comparison doesn't work at all, it's just somebody taking the opportunity to look down on other people. Pure snobbery.

It's quite ironic that he's insinuating people are lazy/stupid with that tweet, when his assumption is completely those things.

I agree with some of your points but not the one about "anyone" would do television for money if they could.

I certainly wouldn't for any money. I don't think it would be worth it.

the point he is making is that more people aspire to be on love island than go to Cambridge, which is pretty tragic. So I think it's very valid

The worst tweet I've ever seen was one where an SJW said that 76 genders exist.

Not necessarily because people of all ages can apply to Love Island whereas it's only a certain bracket applying to Cambridge

They are not comparable

I went to Cambridge and it was exactly like Love Island.... but with a higher IQ.


This cannot be the worst Tweet while Trump is alive
