General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in !casualuk@feddit.uk or !andfinally@feddit.uk
More serious politics should go in !uk_politics@feddit.uk.
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Friend of mine started talking in defense of this guy, and although my wife is best friends with his girlfriend, I cancelled his ass quicker than Netflix coming down on my account sharing. Fuck him and fuck his following.
Okay, feminist man.
Being against rape and human trafficking is enough to be a feminist now? That's news!
Throwing a hissy fit (rage even) just because the guy supports some random guy is a feminist trait, yea. Normal guys just say 'come on, that dude is a douche' and leave it at that.
Hissy fit/rage? They just said they don't talk to the guy anymore, how can you assume so much when you barely know any details?
In addition, if someone defends Andrew Tate after knowing what he did and what he preaches, I don't think think it is someone worthwhile having around.
Yeah, filter your friends according to Cosmo filters, nice life advice. 🤣
I filter people through human decency and character. If you judge that, your problem.
Imagine having such brain damage that you think that taking offense that someone is defending a rape apologist is somehow something worth derision.
Did you explain why he was wrong first or did you just walk away accomplishing nothing?
If you're a Tate fan, you know what's wrong with him, it just doesn't bother you. At best you can be socially pressured into dropping him but deep down you think a sex trafficking and rape is just guys being dudes.
I don't know if I believe that. I mean yes, Andrew Tate is a piece of shit. Full stop, that is fact in my eyes.
The people who follow him could just be stupid, though. Sure there are certainly fucking pyschos that think sex trafficking and whatever else degenerate shit Tate gets into are fine, but all of his followers?
Don't attribute to malice what can easily be explained by stupidity.
You can be stupid and a piece of shit, which does actually encompass all tate dickriders and "fans"
How about I tried and accomplished nothing.
Better to try and accomplish nothing than to never try at all.
Why would someone need to feel empowered for throwing toxic people out of their lives?
Probably just made their own life a bit nicer?
Empowered. Come on, try to troll with gooderer English.
