A lot of Racism is low impact Racism and there is no reason to believe it would be offensive to someone, given that Racism is about offense caused, and not words used, i don't think complaints should be made

For instance if i as a half English half Nigerian say i'm doing it for the Nigerians out there, then i would not believe i was offending English people because they are in the magority, i am a minority, i would expect them to understand why i am saying it, technically maybe it is Racist i dont really know, but i would have first reached the conclution, rightly or wrongly English people would not and should not be offended by that.

A lot of Racism is like that. I honestly think discussion of this topic is needed in the wider society so the PC crap that we saw BB going through with Marcus over the Sree incident can be wound down. It's utterly useless and just serves to victimize people like Marcus, who clearly disliked the person Sree, not his Race Indian
