MP slams PC bias over Christian wedding coverage
 
https://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/n...-36920588.html

Oh - the PC being very Un-PC when it suits yet again. Attack the home-grown faith whilst going off the deep-end when anyone dares attack another! Does anyone really take such people seriously!

Subversive McKeever is using her spot in the International Limelight to broadcast her own twisted agenda. Shame on those who gave this bitch airtime.

This has nothing to do with political correctness :joker: I feel like you make conclusions before reading articles.

Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world, she walks into mine

Of course it is! Whether she agrees with their views or not they are entitled to them - is that not what people get told constantly when they oppose certain other religious beliefs - to the point that any opposition gets a label now! Can’t have it both ways!

People are entitled to express their opinion be it good or bad on the royal wedding. What could be more PC than shutting up and not making comment on it :shrug:

I would say because the comment wasn’t so much about the wedding as it was an insinuation of racism by a ‘right wing’ Christian party. It is very much a case of Pot and kettle in my opinion.

Only if you're lumping "lefties!" all together as one individual... Do you actually know whether or not this specific person is OK with criticisms of other religions? Or are you just assuming they're not?

If I’m assuming anything it would be no different to her assumptions. She was assuming a Christian group were firstly ‘right wing’ and secondly ‘racist’. Couldn’t get more biased and frankly commonly ‘left wing’ assumptions than that.

Some comedian apparently. Not heard of her before but can take a pretty obvious guess on her politics I think.

You should rise above it though surely, an eye for an eye does no one any good.

Nothing to do with political correctness whatsoever lol. All you’re doing is ‘I dislike something, I must blame something that I dislike’ without actually comprehending the article. Imo.

nothing
but some need to vent their hatred one way or another, otherwise they'd explode

Stop implying you have the monopoly on ‘understanding’ and ‘intelligence’ here. You clearly don’t. I understood perfectly thanks - and it had everything to do with PC and if you genuinely don’t think so maybe you should re-read the article.

She assumed and judged to fit her own PC views. I will read up a bit on her but I have little doubt she is a hypocrite to boot.

And you will find you are correct.

There is nothing politically correct about listing reasons why you dislike the royal wedding, especially if you’re gonna insult people as you list them. :joker: its literally closer to the complete opposite of political correctness (political incorrectness?). Im sorry, m’dear, you want to rethink your approach as to why you’re angry.

It’s important enough if that person does what she would criticise others for doing. That is not ‘hatred’ and I thought you were better than resorting to the use of such inflammatory language to make a point. Oh well you live and learn.

I’m not angry - although I could present many good examples of an angry poster on here if they had not been conveniently wiped.

Did you not read her comments on ‘right-wing’ Chistians and her implications on what they likely thought of the new princess being black. How is that not a PC assumption?

That, again, is the complete opposite of political correctness. I’m gonna have to be the one to break it to you; not everything you disagree with is politically correct. You fighting against her views here makes you the more PC one of the two of you. And that’s okay... she’s a bit of a dick.

Beso 20-05-2018 11:50 AM

I also have wondered the answer to that question..

Not the far right so much but the establishment and the traditionalists within it.

your constant picking on Brillo in a very personal and offensive manner is becoming extremely tiresome
