(6,150 posts)Waiting for you to die off so that the planet can be free of your tyranny is not the same as pulling the trigger.
But if you want to speed up the process, I won't stand in your way.

(51,201 posts)If someone includes their info on a meme it follows the meme. Otherwise, it's sole reason for existence is to be shared.
I invite you to track down the original creators of memes from, let's say, Facebook. Take as long as you need.

Twitter permanently suspends account of controversial British columnist Katie Hopkins
By Melissa Mahtani, CNN
Updated 6:07 PM ET, Fri June 19, 2020
(CNN)Twitter has permanently suspended the account of extreme right-wing British columnist Katie Hopkins for violating its hateful conduct policy.
A spokesperson for Twitter would not elaborate on the exact tweets or content that had violated their policy, simply saying:
"Keeping Twitter safe is a top priority for us - abuse and hateful conduct have no place on our service and we will continue to take action when our Rules are broken. In this case, the account has been permanently suspended for violations of our Hateful Conduct policy."
Hopkins is well known for her anti-immigrant views and was previously suspended from Twitter for a week in January.

And here is an article about the image in the OP:
Someone pointed out why this Katie Hopkins tweet was so much more accurate than she thought and its perfect
Heres Katie Hopkins apologies bemoaning the lot of white conservative women everywhere and we only mention it because, as this person points out, its so much more accurate than she thought it was.
She hit the target right in the middle, said Aaldabbous who shared it on Reddit.
Almost as good a takedown, in fact, as when Hopkins trolled Londons Christmas tree and the capitals mayor, Sadiq Khan

To see what the British think about this woman, see this article - an be sure to read all the responses:
Katie Hopkins has won a complaint against the Daily Mirror after it wrongly claimed she had been detained in South Africa for taking ketamine.
The press regulator, IPSO, said Hopkins had in fact been detained by South African authorities for allegedly spreading racial hatred.

(22,443 posts)right-wing shit, basically, posted this tweet in January 2018. There are tons of screen shots because the response was hilarious. But the original is gone because Hopkins was banned from Twitter in June of this year.
