@dirtyharold7164 : If you could just take a step outside of that space (which you seem to think is inside my head and thought processes) and allow me to disabuse you of your incorrect assumption, no . . . I was inspired by her words. More to the point, I was inspired by what she said, when she said it, and where. Context is everything, dear boy. I also disagree with some of what she said, but I don’t think that makes her a bad person.
What you won’t be able to do (and this is fact, not assumption) is point to one single example of people being, “punished,” by her, or her acolytes, for, “refusing to behave in a particular way.” Nor will you be able to show me one iota of evidence that she, or anyone who took any part in the, “Young leaders program,” (which I honestly think you’re mistaking for some type of Manchurian Candidate, “deep state,” version of MK Ultra, instead of an effort to promote the futures of promising young leaders) ever once stated the goal of turning the world into some, “weird, dystopian nightmare.”
I know this because it is a fact. In the same way that I know that YOU have literally stepped into the public domain on this day to spout out an unqualified, un-thought-through, misogynistic and prejudicial conspiracy theory, riddled with assumptions and distorted by your own negative emotions, whilst achieving very little, unless your goal was to create a mental image in the heads of the adult, reading public of YOU beating out your angry words with your fists and forehead, missing all of your typos due to the tears of impotent rage misting your vision, whilst sitting on your bed instead of doing something useful with your time.
Although, you have provided me with a modicum of entertainment, so it’s not all wasted. You have my sympathies, son.

@StratsRUs : Maybe? Would she be considered too biased to be a host, or political analyst? Perhaps? But as a pundit she could probably work part time from home? . . . I wonder if she has plans, or isn’t seeing beyond getting to the finish line without dropping the ball? I don’t know that much about her, but her input on the world stage - responses to Covid, dealing with terrorism, dealings with other world leaders, etc - always struck me as really on point, professional and even (dare I say?) inspirational. Yet, I had no idea that things were going so badly domestically and I still couldn’t say what those domestic issues were, or are, about? I think a lot of British people are likely to respond like me, by spitting up a little coffee and expecting some awful scandal was about to be announced until the news reader got to the end of her opening sentence. All I can honestly say is that, instinctively, I always liked her, was even charmed by her. It seems a shame.

@dirtyharold7164 : That’s a lot of words, son. I guess that makes you a, “fool,” by your own definition? I find your passive aggression somewhat effeminate and it leads me to wonder who bullied you so badly and if you should talk to someone about it? Why you would try to convince someone else of things that even you don’t believe is a question that will occupy my mind for quite some . . . No, it’s gone already. Tell you what. Instead of listing your, “facts,” why don’t you try showing some of your, “evidence,” for them? And, when you can’t, perhaps use that moment (you know? when you’re staring off into the middle distance and wondering why your life didn’t turn out the way you’d hoped) to think about doing something more useful with your time, instead of indulging in this form of emotional self harm, which is so clearly making you so deeply unhappy, on behalf of people who really do not care about you? It’s never too late to improve your life, kid. Take a leaf from the NZ PM’s book and know when to quit, huh? Just sayin’ . . .
