Pete Wishart has blocked me but he thinks it funny to make a crack about my pinned tweet. For the record the words of the tweet are very personal to me and what I’ve been through recently. But an MP sees fit to make fun of me.

Rob Dunsmore spent about an hour today lecturing me about how I should denounce you for “importing the far-right language of QAnon into Scottish politics”. He sent me a screenshot of that tweet at least four times.

They are obsessed. It’s not political, it’s personal. If I’d known for some reason it was a trigger for them, I wouldn’t have pinned it.

The tweet isn’t anything about politics

I presume it’s the use of the word ‘storm’ that’s leading them to think that. But it’s a hell of a conclusion to jump to, and says a lot about their own prejudices.

Storm?? ‘Calm before the Storm’ everyone says that.

Wee bit reminiscent of ‘reap the whirlwind’. A lot of conclusions getting jumped to.

The language of the far right being normalised in the independence movement.

The last time someone said that, they were talking about the word “woke”. (LOL)

As a Eurovision fan, I’d just like to apologise to the world for the Netherlands’ disgraceful attempt to import far-right QAnon language into the contest in the lyrics of their 2014 entry Calm After The Storm. OK, 2014 was three years before QAnon even started, but THAT’S NO EXCUSE.
