These type of threads are either loved or hated on a football forum. They are challenging at times but interesting. The name calling seems to have stopped to a great extent (thank you all) which leaves people able to be open and express their beliefs on subjects.
There have been some that have caused me to blown up and I have said ungentlemanly things. If you don't know other arguments on a subject how can you have formed your opinion?
Every days a school day!
So do I - but as an exile Miller I only see odd game (which is when I comment) as I don't think I can offer much of an informed view. But rest assured, I am always cheering us on!
However, I am well informed and interested in the sort of politics that gets discussed on here - but this is my first ever time I've started a post. I assure you that if Stardson et all didn't post their threads, I wouldn't get involved.
They could always just not do it? Why don't you try and persuade them to stop? Be footy only then wouldn't it?
In the meantime, let's keep to the topic of the post...
I'm not siding with anyone. I just get heartily sick of all the ridiculously lengthy posts about politics, regardless of which party people support.
This is supposed to be a forum about the Millers after all but some people rarely comment about issues to do with the club but always come out of the woodwork whenever a political thread appears.
It's a very good question. I think it began when the old socialist ideas which were genuinely revolutionary and a threat to the establishment, were sidetracked by identity politics. The bloc of socialist support which could have genuinely changed things for the better, fragmented as each group began promoting their own cause. Lesbian socialists pursued lesbian causes over economic matters, surplus value and the ownership of the means of production. Likewise black socialists promoted race issues over core socialist values.
The ruling classes saw this fragmentation and depending on your opinion, they either exacerbated or promoted further division along the lines of identity politics or sat back and allowed the left to pursue these matters until all genuinely revolutionary goals had been submerged under rainbow flags, black lives matter and gender pronouns. (It could also be argued that the ruling class, implanted and then promoted these ideas in the first place at a time in history the late 60's and early 70's when a genuine revolution was a real possibility after all they are more intelligent than the working class)
Despite the deluded opinions of some socialists, we are further away from a revolution as we have ever been in our history.(Jeremy Corbyn..I mean c'mon on the day of reckoning he will be down on his allotment).
Consequently a genuinely revolutionary zeal has been funnelled into causes which cannot bring about a revolution.
In response, the right ( I have to confess I don't know much about right-wingers as I am not one) it appears to me are well and truly pissed off with these crackpots and have mirrored the left's misdirected and hysterical responses to trivia to keep them busy and also to promote the belief that they were in a real class struggle. Then at the end of the day the left go home pleased because they have successfully managed to insert gender neutral pronouns into old issues of whizzer and chips, while the right go home back to piles of cash and coke and unassailable power.
