"all the players from Senegal are black"

Peter Fonda is in much more trouble today, for a tweet calling for Trumps young son Barron to be kidnapped and locked in a cage with paedophiles. Apparently Melania contacted secret service.

I think there's an 'e' in Irish whiskey, Marshy. Don't want anyone accusing you of dissing their culture x

I love how it keeps being thrown into the face of "millennials" and the "young 'uns" that they're "snowflakes" or whatever, when a lot of the people online who originally called out the racist tweet for being racist are actually from an older generation.

But, whatever makes you feel like you're in the right I guess.

Because by patronising the opinions of those opposed to regressive points, policies or reportage it's designed to denigrate their opinion as irrelevant.

Not by actually having a counter argument that is reasoned and well thought out ... just a nonsense word will suffice for many.

You commented on it, and I responded, if you felt it was so inconsequential not sure why you bothered

PS you can’t drink Irish or Scotch Whiskey/y anymore unless you have roots there.It’s cultural appropriation.

No. Jeremy Clarkson and his arselicking costars ruined Top Gear. He assaulted people and they followed him out the door.
