General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.

Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.

Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.

If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)

Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.

Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Exaggerated noses are a theme

None of these are good counter-examples. They gave him a "Jew-nose" when he doesn't have one. These other ones are either inspired by the person's real nose or other types of unflattering noses with different implications. Perhaps the best defense using this evidence is that they didn't give Zelenskyy a Jew-nose despite him being Jewish, if it's one of the publications from the collage above.

Fair. It's odd.

Farage looking like homer in the last one

[–] echodot@feddit.uk 1 points 1 month ago

Those are just exaggerations of existing features. That last one for example, Farage does look exactly like that. The big noses thing is limited to the characters that aren't supposed to be caricatures of anyone.
