24 Liberal puritans hate fun, example number X: The Guardian on why having a pool deck for cricket patrons was apparently “sexist, racist, homophobic and transphobic”. A writer actually put this shit out there. Because they hate bikinis. Now the pool no longer exists, thanks to shit like this.

What the fuck is this structure?
Who is the author talking to?
This author is literally writing this, and half-way starts talking to themselves.
Do not listen to the crazy person talking to themselves, even if they are a guardian journalist.
I think it’s an attempt at humour, like a fake vox pop/interview or something…
Just a really, really shit one. “Journalists” seem to be doing this with increasing frequency, unfortunately…
I see this in the Spectator, of late, too (if not quite as ridiculously as in this case)…
The Spectator has just been getting worse and worse.
I treat it the same way I treat The Nation and Reason: controlled opposition.
I guess it's an FAQ, if the questioner were a leftist.
