    If you're saying you're not upset, then I'm glad for you.

    Also, are you implying you can't appreciate one act and raise an eyebrow at another?



    You have a very insecure and derisive attitude sometimes - where did I object?

    The problem with rescuing the migrants from their folly is that encourages more to endanger themselves.

    I don't wish to see loss of life but instead of dealing with the problem they are accentuating it.

    Send the UN to stop the systemic rape & abuse in the camps and make sure the refugees are safe, then tell them none will qualify for asylum if they travel to Europe as they are safe there. No more deaths in te sea.

    Virtue signalling is saying "look at me, I'm so virtuous because I support this cause" while not actually doing anything about it. Triggered gammons think it's "doing good".

    That does happen, sadly.

    As it is a feminist project, only female crew members are allowed to speak in the name of the Louise Michel.
