Anarcho-Tyranny in the UK

Paging George Orwell:

A journalist with the London Telegraph has been visited unannounced at her home by police in the UK who told her they are investigating a “non-crime hate incident” over a tweet she posted a year ago.

...

Allison Pearson relates what happened on Sunday in an article, noting that police will not tell her which post is the subject of the investigation, nor will they tell her who her accuser is or what they feel offended about.

Well okay, then.  But the UK Plods seems to have forgotten the old saying to not mess with someone who buys ink by the barrel:


Way to shine a spotlight on your policy, dumbasses.  Streisand Effect much?

Please explain why the police are investigating a non-crime. It smells like the Trump trial for paying back loans.

In the book, Fahrenheit 451, the firemen do not put out fires. They search out and burn unallowed literature.

Obviously, the UK thought that book to be an instruction manual.

The point of the law is not to allow self-defense in court, it's to punish thought crimes as double-plus ungood badthink.
QED

This is what happens when you surrender your government, and use 1984 as a manual, rather than a warning.

Orwell would be rolling on the floor in laughter.
From anywhere but Blighty.

Pompous @$$hole idiots, the lot, unless and until they rise up and start burning the socialist state to the ground, and haul the traitors out for street-corner tribunals for hot-tar-and-feathering parties with the recommended beatings, and in many cases, ad hoc hangings.

They should try it: it's not as hard nor as awful as it might seem. Purulent pustules must be drained wherever found, and a quick incision is best.

The two rozzers making the inti intimidation visit knew what the score was. Yet they did what they were told to do anyway, And US badgemonkeys are just as bad.

For some time now I've wondered if the UK isn't sliding back into the 1800s.

Not just the UK.
The ENTIRE West!
Thanks to a group who yearn for the "good old days" of their Messiahs - Lenin and Stalin - and intend to get there BAMN!
