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.

He sort of could've been if he stuck with his psudo-hippy crap. Then he started decrying science and vaccines and hanging out with rightoids. The left actually believes in science and doesn't like obnoxious charlatans like Peterson or Rogan, so his audience shifted.
I've known an extreme hippy be antivax before, so maybe that was the route he took
More like was hoping to drag more vulnerable tacitly-left people to the right with him. He clearly decided to shift his rhetoric. There was no way in hell his audience was staying the same. He also shifted way too hard to make it subtle, so anyone with strong axioms was right out too.
Many hippies I know are completely anti western medicine so being antivax is kind of a given for them.
Thanks, I haven't followed his stuff since he found god
It's always the religious lot.... tssk.
