Always the victim, it’s never your fault.

I have already said once that I wasn’t referring to why they’re coming here. The very point you took exception to was not linked with that. As such I was left with four possibilities, which I laid out above. That you thought it was ridiculous to call these people human, that they should be treated better, that you misunderstood me or are twisting words to suit an agenda. There are no other possibilities.

If no-one is suggesting they should be mistreated, why did you take exception to my point which was not related to this?

I don’t think people with concerns about people coming over in dinghies are inherently racist or xenophobic, I have not gone into this, so why are you trying to twist words, yet again? All you are doing is showing why I can’t be bothered to. If I do, there is no chance you’d accurately represent my views. You can’t even claim about me not understanding the problem, because I haven’t given an opinion on it. Your exception to me wasn’t to do with why the problem exists, it was solely due to Braverman’s appalling treatment of them (and Patel’s etc). No arguments about this, human traffickers or whatever justifies how they have been treated while here.

The only reason I have reacted angrily is because you speak to others as if they’re beneath you. The fact is that you took exception to me saying these people should be treated better, with no mention of the issues over why they’re coming here. If you’re taking exception to this, I am left with no other option in thinking you disagree with them being treated humanely or you have made a mistake. Which is ok, I won’t think badly of an error. I do when you twist my words and make wild accusations about my own opinions.
