When the Leftist Mob Comes For You,They are coming for everything you have

As far as I can follow this, a liking for Yourshire tea was despised because it is seen as an upperclass taste

What could be more harmless than a British cup of tea?

That’s what our new Chancellor Rishi Sunak must have thought as he shared a benign tweet about making his team a cup of tea while they prepare the budget he has to deliver to British Parliament on March 11.

"Nothing like a good brew," he said.

He could never have known what was about to befall his brand of choice, Yorkshire Tea.

For the crime of their product featuring in a picture with the Conservative Chancellor, there were demands for a boycott, a ban and worse, much worse. So much so that the Yorkshire Tea employee on the receiving end of all this hate made a personal plea from the Yorkshire Tea account:

‘We’ve spent the last three days answering furious accusations and boycott calls…as the person who’s been answering these tweets, I know it could have been much worse. It’s easier to be on the receiving end of this as a brand than as an individual…But for anyone about to vent their rage online, even to a company - please remember there is a human on the other end of it and try to be kind’.

This is the madness of our times. A social media employee from a tea company imploring people to stop being so cruel, all because it was being drunk by someone from a political party they oppose.

This phrase she used -- Be Kind (#BeKind) -- has been trending in the UK for much of the week after the suicide of a young and vivacious TV personality, Caroline Flack. She was the captivating host of a popular TV show called Love Island and winner of the BBC Strictly Come Dancing competition in 2014.

Allegations in her private life triggered a media pile-on that was as bloody as any car crash on the freeway. Forced out of the TV job she loved and facing the loss of her home, the endless screeching of her name across headlines and online proved too noisy for her to find a peaceful way through. She was found hanging in her home, a rag doll, broken by hate.

One of her final posts on Instagram read, "In a world where you can be anything, be kind."

Where was all this kindness for Yorkshire Tea?
