Tbf at least he hasn't urinated on someone's head just because they're Jewish.

No I guess hating Jews in isn't as bad as hating brown people

They're both bad imo, it's imo one has actions taking place whilst the other is words from a 19 year old at the time.

Both are bad, but I personally just take more offence to the urination aspect of the former.

Not sure what's so difficult for Piers to understand, if Rafiq was the only individual affected by the racism he described than the two might be equivalent; but he wasn't. The whole reason its a story is that it revealed a racism in cricket that will have affected countless Asian players over the years

Former spinner Rafiq has spoken of his experiences of racism and bullying at Yorkshire and appeared at a Digital, Culture, Media and Sport select committee this week.

The 30-year-old said he had "absolutely no excuses" for the messages.

"I am incredibly angry at myself and apologise to the Jewish community," he said in a statement.

Rafiq said he had deleted the messages to not cause further offence.

"I have absolutely no excuses. I am ashamed of this exchange," he said.

"I was 19 at the time and hope and believe I am a different person today."

He's perfectly right of course. Deal with the people who were being racist and stop trying to project it on to a society as a whole. That panel knew that, the MPs know that, but they do it anyway because like Mr Peterson says, "it divides people" and a divided people makes them more powerful.

It's true that the Governments around the world love division within society as it's easier for our dear leaders to get away with doing certain policies that they'd never get away with if society as a whole was more united.
