Just a bunch of self righteous spoilt children 

 

Here's a picture from an editorial meeting at The Guardian

It is nothing new. 

 

I was one of the many people who voted in the Time Man of the Century poll. The poll hijack was arranged on Usenet.

Poor old Ronnie, denied his moment of glory.

So much wrong here it's laughable you could possibly fall for it... they're even quoting fake articles

 

There was no poll, merely a form to nominate someone.

 

The piece wasn't cancelled... it was published yesterday...

 

Guardian readers nominate their person of the year:

Rowling is in the list

Why should she get person of the year? Has she done something of note this year? Apart from getting herself tangled up in transphobic 'debates'

Wrote a book maybe?

What's your opinion of people who get their knickers in a twist over fake claims about the results of a poll that never existed?

I was generalising 

 

I follow The Guardian but sometimes their wokeness is insanely amusing and extremely hypercritical

Yeah right. So going by your post, a bunch of small children, having noticed that online polls have been repeatedly hijacked in the past, decide not to run one. Yet HumbleNarrator and you, who are so desperate to have something to ridicule the Guardian about, fail to check whether the report you found is fake or not.

The Guardian have plenty i can ridicule them about. Im not desperate at all.

 

However i do take a more satirical view on them

 

Do you know what satire is? 

 

Or do you always get so outraged when someone makes fun of the left?

Not desperate at all but still leaps on a fake report about them.

 

You weren't making fun of the left, you were making a fool of yourself.

 

 

Almost every post you make contributes to Mister Gee's stew.

No, I'm not Mister Gee. I've only ever been altus on this forum. Also, unlike some other people, I have never flounced off the forum only to return a short while later with a new user name. However, like Mister Gee, I realise that someone's posting style never changes however many user ids they go through.
