    Who would have thought, surveying the discourse of the past five years, that being "courteous" was a priority, apart from maybe every pompous hypocrite in Britainhttps://twitter.com/DawnHFoster/status/1257997781328945152 …

        When we called Seumas Milne a blood-drenched Stalinist we were merely observing the formal norms of courteous communication

        When we said that Ken Loach was an evil Jew-hater whose only problem with the Holocaust was that he didn't personally take part, we said so in a measured, polite kind of way

        When we referred to people raising eyebrows at Michael Gove's bookshelf as being one step away from book-burning, this was spoken in the spirit of Socratic dialogue

        When we referred to Jeremy Corbyn as a terrorist-loving degenerate who hates his own country and all the hardworking people in it, this was offered as, perhaps, one would make the opening speech in a college debating society

        When we offered every kind of insult possible to Diane Abbott, treated her at best as if she were a village idiot and rejoiced even at the thought that somebody had bullied her, this was just an elaborate ritual, wreathed in layers of politeness and mutual respect

        When we harrassed the Leader of the Opposition outside his own home, shrieked at him on television and when he was asaulted, treated it as a joke if we could be bothered to mention it at all, this showed our respect for opinions that differ from ours, our commitment to tolerance

        When we published a hit-list of communists during the election campaign, one that we'd dredged up from a far-right organisation, we offered it in the spirit of hospitality, as you might offer a present to a stranger or a newly-met business acquaintance

        maybe they mean "courteous" in its original sense of manners befitting a royal court

        Is there a single example of a situation in which Corbyn wasn't polite-to-the-point-of-absurdity?
