When I use yank pejoratively it's not about nationality it's about how folks approach the world
If you assume Green means Jill Stein you're a yank
If you complain that non-US folks should specify what Green party people are posting about, or if you assume Polanski means Roman you're a yank

No one comes out of this interview looking great - but I think it's an important guide to the colours of transphobia.
"Just a bit transphobic" like the interviewer
"Middle class activist transphobia" like Sarah Ditum
"All consuming obsession" like Graham Linehan

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

The most stressed out I've ever been about Christmas was when I was 16 and I got my first ever job, working at M&S in Dundrum. As soon as I started I kept hearing these myths about the Christmas Eve Waste Sale, where all the food that wasn't sold on the 24th was marked down 90%.

When I was monitoring FB etc groups around Brexit, the one thing pro and anti groups all had in common was racist & misogynistic memes and other posts about Diane Abbott. She was loathed by the centre and the right and whatever the reasons they gave if challenged, it was always misogynoir behind it
I think at this point if you're including Diane Abbott - a woman who has never held government office, has been a backbencher since 2020, and is scarcely a government ally - on your list of political wrongdoers, we all know exactly what your real concerns are

Ever have someone park up outside your home and have a phone conversation on their car on speakers and it's really bloomin' loud and you think how can they not realise it's so loud?
Cars have poor sound insulation, and they might also have the bass turned up.
