I realise he was just doing a bit, but Detournement's 'if you don't like Orange Walks, you're a middle class bigot' is one of the weirdest things on a thread full of weirdo's.

No there are obviously good reason not to like them. 

Having a performative social media meltdown about one day of marches is the middle class bit that seems to be restricted to the trendier bits of Glasgow.

What would be worse? An Orange Walk or a Middle Class Walk?

Downsides?

Badly behaved children exclusively called Archie running about unchecked. Folk in bright coloured chinos. Joules anoraks. “Keep Calm And Drink Gin” tote bags. 

Positives? 

Create fewer potholes than the orange lot.

I thought you said we're all working-class if we sell our labour anyway ?

Social media is social media. Folk in more affluent areas are naturally going to complain more about things, especially stuff like this. They pay higher rates and more in rent, or indeed own their properties and many will think this entitles them to be taken very seriously.

It would be pretty hard to choose between the People's Vote lot and the Orange Order tbf. :barf

To be fair it's probably a natural reaction to middle class people wanting you banned off the streets and people having meltdowns on social media because they have poor people in their gentrified neighbourhood. 

Was initially mad at this recycled G51 bit being stolen but since you got 6 pages out of it I have to greenie. One of the best workers in the game.

Get this shite away from Scotland, along with the OO marches, and if these dicks want to "celebrate" whatever it is that they think is worth marching for, then gtf to Ireland (North/South) and stop polluting Scotland's streets with their bigoted mayhem.

 

Seems from the red dot that there are some who want the "other" side's marches banned, but quite happy for their own side's Oirish history fests to go ahead.  🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

West of Scotland society summed up imo.
