--- Quote from: Claus on October 1, 2017, 06:06:49 am ---Just a note on that, the Mail has a weird split where the online side is this celeb/fashion-obsessed content farm. So to those of us not familiar with the print version, it doesn't seem as poisonous as it really is at heart. Sneaky fucks. Just in case anyone thinks posters who use Mail links are right wing nutjobs.

So your defence is that it is vacuous shit rather than pernicious evil shit?

Again, not defending - explaining.
Nobody outside the UK knows what the Mail is really like. I only found out because I read an article on it. That's why you'll keep seeing it used as a source by non-native reds, the online arm is nothing like the print version.

Just why would anyone want to read this paper or link anything from it beggars belief.
In the 1930s the Daily Mail ran numerous articles praising Nazi Germany, the Hitler Youth, Mussolini's Italy and the British Union of Fascists. This era of Fascist sympathising from the Mail produced one of the most notorious headlines in the history of British print media; "Hurrah for the blackshirts", which was written by the proprietor Lord Rothmere, a personal friend of both Mussolini and Hitler.
