I'm doing anything but sneer at people who don't agree with me. All I'm doing is pointing to an independent report that states unequivocally one side of the Labour party colluded with the media to undermine its own chances at two previous general elections and funnelled campaign money away from winnable seats (which could have changed the result) and towards safe seats held by MPs from their own faction.
Why that isn't a fucking national scandal is beyond me. I don't give two hoots whether people aren't feeling it. It's a fucking disgrace. Essentially the people in charge of the Labour Party currently figured diamond-hard Brexit and Boris Johnson was a price worth paying for them taking back control of the party. Fuck those cunts.
E2a: I mean, do you reckon the last five years have been worth it? Just to get a Brylcreemed nonentity and his coterie of mooing Blairite 90s tribute wankers back in charge of the opposition?

I've only read the ex summary / foreword. It reads as exceptionally damming of absolutely everyone.

I’ve tried to engage in your perspective in measure terms. That doesn’t seem to fit with your narrative though and, ironically, only strengthens the position of an historically incompetent, dishonest and corrupt government. Forget the process, look at the outcome.
Specifically responding to your post, anyone who does not take your absolute perspective you dismiss in derogatory terms. So, yes, sneering is not helpful apart from, as above, for the government as it plays into “they are disorganised communists controlled by the Union barons” BS narrative. And that repels the floating voters that needs to be meaningfully engaged in making a change.
I’m not sure why you continue to associate me with Kier Starmer - it’s absolutely possible that it’s not a binary choice - but if you want to continue down that route drop me a PM and I’ll put you in touch with my wife who has first hand experience of “Stalinist purges” that lead to disappearance, fake names, political prisoners and political parties that are outlawed to this day.
I’ve listened to and respected your truth. Listen to others. Or carry on down your own rabbit hole. Choice is yours.

We get your passion, it’s absolute heartfelt, but not everyone is feeling it. And the how is as important as the what if people are going to meaningfully engage rather than think “there’s no room here for me”.
Sneering at anyone who doesn’t agree with you isn’t going to help to win hearts and minds, indeed it only going to discourage the ‘undecideds’ and we do know where that leads.
