Personally it’s because the headline policies from both parties are performative cruelty. For anyone who isn’t heavily into the details on politics, these will be the policies they’re ok with.
Maybe if there’s other more nuanced policies ok housing or healthcare that someone could point as being the reason they’d chose reform or the tories then people would be less inclined to ridicule.
I find the pile on, on someone saying they consider reform an option slightly odd and does show how heavily the demographic of the forum is skewed (which is fine but people should deluded themselves thier is a mix of voices). I get the bashing of Tice and Farage as they are a negative influence on politics in my opinion but if you are socially and fiscally conservative and don't like FPTP, who else should you vote for?
Seems strong centrist dad vibes to oppose everything that challenges the status quo and keeps us locked in a two party system that isn't working
I'm surprised so many of the political compasses didn't come out more authoritarian as a lot of people seem to be against people having views different from thiers
