No, you're just wrong. As per usual, since nearly everything you say is incorrect.

A plebiscite is the vote of all members of an electorate on something. It's not a voter.

When we use the wrong word, or use a word wrongly then our communication becomes inefficient and liable to misinterpretation or dismissal.

Weather we like it or knot, when mistakes happen (be they homophobes, miss spelt, just plane rong or whoever) it becomes harder too pass the poster's meaning, and watt could be illegitimate (or Atlee's undressing) points of view get lost in deciduous jalopy.

Tomatillo, it geronticide bin?

No samson, pointing out that you are seemingly incapable of holding a discussion because your use of language is poor enough that you can't be understood is not some sort of thoughtcrime or other oppression.

In order to be involved with a discussion in written English you need to be able to use written English well enough to be understood. The occasional mistake or flub is fine, everyone does it. You are barely coherent half the time and the other half just plain wrong.

The Islamist Humza Yousaf was not elected it was hereditary.

As pointed out by others, there was a vote by the SNP membership, which he won, so he was elected, not to mention his constituency elected him their MSP.

One of his main opponents was Kate Forbes, who I have mentioned a couple of times. She was quite explicit, as borne out by some of her previous voting, that her Wee Free faith would inform her decision-making.

You keep, wrongly, calling Yousaf an "Islamist", so why not call Forbes a Christian Fundamanetalist Radical and be concerned about her? The Wee Frees not being representative of mainstream opinion - FFS, the first time I visited Lewis the Wee Frees still insisted on shutting absolutely everything down on a Sunday.

I explained there is no difference between a man who is a Muslim and a man who is an Islamist.
Ask the women of Afghanistan and Iran.

Sigh. No. You are wrong.
Sweet effing jeebus in the current information age how can you be so ignorant?
Plebiscite: the direct vote of all the members of an electorate on an important public question such as a change in the constitution.

It is approximately synonymous with 'referendum', the socio-political differentiations having ended, and the prior negative connotation for 'plebiscite' being mostly forgotten.

No, you claimed that.

It's yet another thing you're wrong about.

ETA: Also that doesn't answer the question. Why are you not similarly critical of the woman who said her faith would directly affect her performance?

The plebiscite is called upon from time to time to correct mistakes.
Humza Yousaf will be corrected after wrecking Scottish enlightenment paradigms.

Evidence he will do this?

Evidence being a Muslim means being an islamist? No, your say so is not evidence. No, some islamist countries existing is not evidence.

I know a woman from Iran. She is a Muslim, she does fasts during the Ramadan, and she prays every day as she is supposed do. But she does not wear a scarf, and she drinks alcohol.

According to your definition, she is a fundamentalist.

Thank you for reminding there are other views.
Some here might be interested in a link to the other forum.
To read only in my case.

I didn't post a link because it's a private forum, i.e. you need to register in order to read it as well as to post in it, which is probably not something you want to do unless you happen to be a Doctor Who fan. On the off chance that you are, this is the link:

https://gallifreybase.com/gb/thread...thread-about-new-harry-potter-tv-show.311967/

The thread title is "JK Rowling, TERF extraordinaire", and it's in the Crater of Needles subforum which is provided to "Discuss current events, random topics, and those old favorites, politics and religion".
