So racism and homophobia are okay but attacking the disabled is a step too far?

It's not a discrimination competition

No and Tila shouldn't have been removed, if you're gonna stick these people on your show you can't remove them a few days later because you didn't do your job properly and check who these housemates actually are

So, come on then Einstein what does that comment mean if it isn't a racially disparaging remark?

Oh FFS, give over for christs sake. Cant you just enjoy the show instead of continually using it as a platform to sound of on gender issues and things we could all do with a break from. This is an entertainment show not your own personal vehicle for opinions that are so out dated and self serving.

That could well be true but calling black people **** and attacking somebody and saying they have down syndrome wasn't a joke at all

This IS about the show though, show is about social experiment that we can discuss, argue and maybe learn from.

I do agree but then it's each persons take on it I suppose? Not trying to single you out/bring up things from before (so apologies if this comes across that way), but I remember you saying that in your opinion, Helen didn't bully Jale in BB15 but did Brian in BB16. So it's that kinda thing if that makes sense, we all have a perception of what's worse than the other.

No, most of his comments were years ago. People change their views, they learn. Let him share his experiences and views on-screen.

LMAO my views are outdated?! Are you taking the piss?

And considering this is an 'entertainment show' (which you're right, it is), it's funny that almost every series you can guarantee you'll be campaigning for the entertaining housemates to be evicted and championing some dullard

Andrew is a housemate in Big Brother. A housemate who has made comments regarding race, homosexuality and disability. Therefore we, including myself, are discussing them. It's pretty self explanatory if you think about it.
