How would you know? We all know you dont have any black friends - you've admitted it a few times. Where are you getting this info? I'm actually scared to ask

Absolutely I can agree. I'm not sure this incident was purposefully racist. I do think however, that it was a racist conversation. As Dave (the rapper) said "it is racist, whether or not it feels racist."

I think she is of an age, and from an era and class that would put her squarely in the white supremacy mix. That doesn't mean she had a skinhead and was marching with neo nazi's. It just means that it was accepted and normal in her circles so likely to permeate subconsciously.

I'm sure not one cracker in these threads would feel happy with any stranger at a party coming up to them, messing with their hair, and repeating the same things over and over at them, in a slightly different way each time, and that's without the life experiences of the complainant thrown in. Most black people in their 30's/40's will tell you they were racially abused as children at some point. So many complicated issues at play.

I don't think 2 sides are the same here, because one side is telling a potential victim how they should act when being racially abused, how she has an agenda, what constitutes an interrogation eyc, and the other side is simply saying this is a bit nuts, none of you know what it's like.

I'll also make one final point to you, as I know we've discussed it before. Lady Haha has been allowed to drift off back to her life without any issues, no one has tried to track her down or gone for her, she resigned and has peace.

The same free speech warriors, anti-woke cancel culturists, have done nothing but attack the victim for 2 days straight. farage and Wooton doing shows about her, Galahads on twitter trying to track down her tax information etc. That's cancel culture, not a couple of dweebs on twitter threatening to stop eating at Gordon Ramsey's restaurant if he has foie gras on the menu.

Some folks are just angry they don't get to use it in public, too.

I definitely need some Bacardi and popcorn to continue with this thread.

On a similar token you do get black people sometimes refer to Asian-owned Afro-Asian stores in the U.K. as ‘paki shop/s’ and again to me that one just is. It’s literally short-hand for Pakistan and left to me I wouldn’t say it always has to be associated with negative tidings. British-Asians don’t have anything like the same historical association with racial abuse as black people so I wouldn’t bother going against someone’s defence for using that term innocently. Especially when it’s also even people of colour who use it.

Yeah Redway I've heard the same stuff aswell ,so I understand what you're saying.

Are you the same guy that posts all his opinions through the medium of farage and Peterson videos? Might need to sit this one out

This is a non story. It doesn't affect any of your lives in the slightest. You're only talking about it because the media are pushing it and you're controlled by the media and you do as they say.

Break your chains and set yourself free.

Ha, there's a shop in my hometown that's colloquially known as ... an alliterative name that uses that mild slur along with the old man's name (or possibly assumed name, most of his family have more Indian-sounding names) which people around here use with no malice or anything.

You can only set yourself free, the Orange man is just trying to wake you up from your sleep.

Yeah, and I get that. It’s not my narrative to tell (I ain’t got one drop of Indian/Pakistani blood in me as far as I know) but when people of all races occasionally use that word in certain contexts (not to someone’s face, obviously, because that would be disparaging) I just don’t think it can intrinsically be that bad.

And the funny thing is I actually want to like you sometimes but your bait doesn’t exactly make it easy. One can only wonder whether you’re baiting or speaking from a place of actual personal conviction most of the time.

He's fine. If they could get him, they'd have got him by now. He holds all the aces, because they have nothing on him, whilst he has everything on the power hungry Globalist criminals.

Spoiler:

Trump and the Patriots win this war

He keeps admitting he broke the law by stealing documents. They've cleared the special master out of the way now, so things should start to pick up (if they are going to).

This thread’s more convoluted than the Paddy-the-four-eyed-teddy—bear | Chas. | Al. love-hexagonal triangle over at Emmerdale. God knows why I’m still trying to keep up with it on a Friday night.
