It's always telling when people are more offended about the suggestion of racism than racism itself.

Is that the one that found that NO institutional racism existed?

Nope ... all I said was, if you look that they weren't LESS likely to be racist.
And you're definately not less likely to be, it could be argued that thatchers youth are MORE likely to be.

I'm a product of Thatchers youth too, so it's all subjective.

Ok..but even if it turns out that they are more likely to be racist surely that's down to parenting and not maggie thatcher?

We are shaped by many things, primary socialisation is one factor.

What’s more telling is someone going around picking up table scraps trying to make a meal out of them.

You want to make out you are some superior individual when you are no better than anyone else.

With your high morals, no dezzy you just put yourself on a high horse.

Why so defensive? Bit strange for you to go on the attack like that when I wasn't speaking about anyone in particular, just a general attitude in the world.

Just look at Sheriff's post above yours, he seems pretty offended for some strange reason.

You didn't comment on Kizzy's awful generalisation of calling people 'Thatchers youth - aging racist yuppies'. Seems you don't mind ageism and narrow mindedness - as long as its the 'right' person saying it, of course.

I didn't mention racism. Typical defensive right winger.

You actually did mention racism...
Right winger? You accuse me of generalising then you do it yourself
I've supported and voted for the SDLP (N. Ireland) my entire adult life. They are not like the awful, mega - failed Corbyn version of Labour though, thank God.

It's the earliest for sure, what has the sun taught you about socialisation, apart from who are the folk devils this year..is it hoodies, yobs, chavs, single mums, dole dossers or junkies?...

Nope.
In response to your post I questioned the validity of ONE muslim family being some kind of representative of everything and proof of racism not occurring.

It's called sarcasm. In response to that "some lefties" diatribe thrown at me.

I’m calling you out for your constant need to be seen as a up holder of morals and values while casting shadows on others on this forum.

And the i was not talking about any one in particular is like there is someone but I’m not naming names.

Getting a dig in while staying within the rules.
