It’s like Brexit all over again with Corbyn declining to campaign against Brexit. Maybe he’s the problem?

    Oh, so you’re not a socialist trying to suggest how socialists should operate. I get real Lib Dem vibes.

    I think it’s pretty clear you don’t want any left initiative to succeed and are here just to stick the boot in. You’re the Guardian from 6 years ago.

    I get people may think he’s incompetent or slow, or stubborn, but the anger, oh boy, the tabloid smear campaign got you good.

      Yeah you’re right. I should totally be in favour of a competent and stubborn individual leading the movement, that’s clearly me responding to a smear campaign and not me responding to the fact that he betrayed this country with his Brexit shenanigans.

      You’re just dedicated to the man, which is cute, but not particularly politically helpful. I want the movement to succeed so I don’t want a stubborn jackass to lead it.

      Dedication to an individual at the expense of logical thought is what got America into its current position.

        Who should lead it then?

        You throw many veto’s but aren’t proposing any options.

        Defending a man against unfair smears isn’t dedication, just human decency. It might be a concept you struggle to comprehend.

        The classic blame JC for Brexit is one of the weakest logical arguments I’ve seen. Every time I counter, the person goes missing. It’s a regurgitated view that doesn’t hold up to scrutiny.
