Would You "Jump For Joy" When You Learned A Pensioner You Didn't Like Has Got Covid 19?

Not that is was needed but yet more evidence of the nastiness of the libFac hordes.

[youngmafbog]

Yes, liberals they are not.

[Mamyalynne]

No.

[andy-hughes]

No.

That was a tasteless stupid remark and Mr West has apologised.

We all say things we don't mean - being a known actor means that when you say something, your stupidity gets exposed to the world for a few minutes, and then everyone moves on.

I think it is evidence of one individual speaking before thinking - it hardly amounts to a political manifesto.

[iluvmargie]

I would definitely NOT jump for joy.

[barry1010]

I don't give any weight to an actor's opinions.

[Mozz71]

As usual, Tora takes the opportunity to tar all liberals with the same brush, based on the action of one stupid person.

No, i didn't celebrate Trump gettong Covid 19 and I wish him a full recovery, but I will admit that Karma seemed to be in full force here. Joe Biden's team seem to have been very understanding and respectful of the potus' illness. I can't imagine it would've been the same if it had been the other way around.

[ichkeria]

I loathe Trump, whose been serially nasty to and about people for as long as anyone can remember.
Jump for joy at hearing he’s ill though? Pretty pathetic

[Lie-in King]

No I wouldn't - "pensioner" or not.

[Sunk]

You seem to have made a giant leap there 3T.

Just because someone does not like Trump does not make them LibFac (a stupid term you have made up). Unfortunately, his CV blows away your daft assertion

// Dominic West – AKA Jimmy McNulty in The Wire. He went to Eton, his wife is a former countess, he has a daughter from a relationship with a member of the Astor dynasty, and he is a friend of the Camerons. He is also said to have once had a soft spot for the Samantha Cameron. //

Admittedly it is not nice to wish a highly fatal disease on anyone. But it is also not nice to use his statement to falsely accuse other people who you perceive as your enemy, as being nasty. You have an agenda, but you do the classic conspiracy theorists mistake of twisting lies into your narrative, even though West is a privileged old Etonian posh boy.

[dannyk13]

Definitely not, nor would I about any individual suffering an illness.

[youngmafbog]

"I can't imagine it would've been the same if it had been the other way around."

Except it doesnt tend to happen the other way round. Its always when a right wing person has a problem or dies that the nasty liberal left come out. Take for example Mrs T and Bojo. It happens every time, the liberal left just cannot help it.

[youngmafbog]

Do you live in a parallel universe sunk?

[Mamyalynne]

I can honestly say I have never rejoiced in hearing of the illness or death of anyone - I may have shown indifference in the case of vile convicted killers etc but joy? Never.

[burlyshirley]

NO!

[TrevorThePug]

Dominic West is an old Etonian who hangs out with Tory bigwigs. I don’t think he is as liberal left as you want him to be for your juvenile cliches.

[Mozz71]

//Except it doesnt tend to happen the other way round.//

I was referring specifically to Trump and Biden. Had Biden caught the lurgy, I can't imagine Donny would back off and grant him recovery time. He would probanly be calling Biden weak, or similar, just as he did with Hillary Clinton's bout of pneumonia four years ago.

[Sunk]

// Do you live in a parallel universe sunk? //

Well, I obviously don’t agree that some minor actor from an 18 year old TV show shows all liberals to be nasty. You obviously do agree with such stupidity, so rather than me being in another universe, it shows you to be in an alternative reality.

[naomi24]

No. It's horrible.

[Unsureme]

No,and it will be interesting to see what spin the BBC put on "The Trump Show"on Thursday Night.

[jim360]

There are no doubt plenty of "nasty lefties", but ymb is sadly mistaken if he thinks it's only (or predominately) that way round. At a guess, it's because there's more reason to pay attention when it's "your side" under attack than when it's "your side" doing the attacking.

When Hillary Clinton was sick with pneumonia during the 2016 campaign, Trump was publicly mocking her. When Justice Ginsburg died recently, many right-wingers were celebrating and suggesting that they'd prayed for her death.

I don't understand this mentality, wherever it comes from, but it is not confined to the far left, nor is it primarily from that side. The political distribution of unfeeling, callous pricks is uniform.
