Posted this pic of us enjoying fish & chips yesterday. Of the numerous comments from fellow Greens one had a go for undermining lockdown, one for eating too many carbs and one for not adhering to Warburtons boycott. Sanctimonious green finger-wagging is a really irritating trait.
This sort of moralistic finger-wagging makes many otherwise sympathetic people run a fucking mile from the Green party.
I've not even any fucking idea whether the bread is Warburtons or not but someone thought it looked enough like Warburtons to lecture me about boycotting them for being donors to the Tories.
I've now had a private message telling me off for the fish (and the chips)
And another
Top tip: Green Party members stop joylessly and tediously moralising to people about their individual consumer choices and support your colleagues in working for public policy change using a range of fiscal, regulatory and public investment tools instead.
If I want moral guidance on how to live my life I will ask for it. From now on anyone who thinks my timeline is the appropriate place to give unsolicited advice ordering me where to shop, what to buy, what to eat and what I am allowed to do and not do is going to be blocked.
