What?

I explained my points fully and you ignored them for pedantic reasons, that's not me abusing you. Your desperation is growing if you're going to try to make out I'm attacking you when you can't win an argument.

I've come to the conclusion you are trolling when it comes to this waste of space. Literally no one is that idiotic to think Winston is actually right in what he preaches?

Are you homophobic yourself? Do you believe in his views? Please god answer me because if you do then I shan't be continuing this discussion with you.

This one. But you knew that already.

You haven't responded to mine either about Winston's memory loss just up the page.

there was nothing to argue.

you were given an example of people who would care, then you and you alone went off on one.



go re read again before you delete it to save your embarrassment.

And there we have it. The thought police are alive and well.

I wonder though if you will see the irony in you being allowed to give opinions on here that are derogatory about Winston.

You say that Winston shouldn't be allowed to express such an opinion about gays. How do you propose that he be prevented from doing so?

I find anybody that will discriminate against someone based on their sexuality completely vile and disgusting. Someone like that doesn't deserve respect for their ignorant opinions. He is of course entitled to his ignorant opinions which I have already stated. This topic of this thread is whether he deserves respect for them. Absolutely not. It is a disgusting viewpoint to have. How do I propose he be prevented from spilling such vileness? Get him away from any kind of platform where he can preach such grossly out of date nonsense.

You didn't answer whether you agreed with what he said though. I'm guessing your campaigning his remarks as a yes. You do agree with his views?

I do agree with his views. Frustrating that there isn't a single thing you can do about it.:spin:

Then all I can do is call you an ignorant homophobic mess and leave the thread. And there's not a thing you can do about it because it's the truth.

It seems it is all some are capable of. It is certainly easier than actually having a serious debate.

I'm not even going to report the abuse. I think it would be instructive for it to stay here as a monument.


If you have to pitch a fit and flounce from a thread because someone has an opinion you don't like then it is time to take a look at yourself.

Glenn. 10-01-2016 08:22 PM

Can we ban the trolling homophobe please?

I think we can respect that other people don't necessarily drive the same car we do or buy the same milk. When we are talking about social issues such as the adoption of children by gay couple and decisions on handling poverty that literally effect lives, the rules change.

Winston is trying to be a politician and I think that amplified the reaction. His poor character showed through poorly on BB, even with editing.

So what do you propose we do about Winston and others daring to have an opinion on social issues that you don't agree with?

"One of the problems with defending free speech is you often have to defend people that you find to be outrageous and unpleasant and disgusting" - Salman Rushdie.

True say Salman.

However the alternative is even worse - no free speech is what happens under a fascist regime such as Nazi Germany etc etc

Better to all talk freely and disagree than to try shut people down and encourage hatred towards them and demonize them for having an opinion that you don't agree with - which is what has happened to Winston in this series by BB.

By the way - I 100% disagree with what Winston said.

BUT - I also 100% disagree with the hate-fuelled Witch hunt mentality that Winston has been subjected to from BB.

If Winston had said those things INSIDE the house - then let them all react to it, they are adults.

But for BB to set him up DELIBERATELY and then crucify him for something he said OUTSIDE the house is a disgusting, mean trick from BB. If they were that offended then they shouldn't have let him in, not lead him in like a lamb to slaughter. That's just foul play from BB.

BB WITCH HUNT - yet again. DELIBERATELY whipping up hatred in the name of 'entertainment' is just as bad, if not worse, than what Winston said outside of the house.
