I re-read the op, he wasn't banned for saying racist things. I don't agree with what he said, but none of it was racist.

a post calling Muslims "filthy scum bags"
a post urging people to terrorise and behead those who follow the Quran
a post urging people to "make war" on Muslims

Are you telling me these wouldn’t be racist posts

Hate speech should be defended with everything we got.

Long live the first amendment

If you say those things around your dinner table then that is a little bit concerning tbh

And he’s not popular

If he'd have directed those posts to members of race, they'd be racist. Sure, they're bigoted, but followers of islam aren't a particular race.

So you’re saying that Islamophobia is acceptable?

Not only has not posted about it, but probably voted for them to be in power.

Depends on the crime.

Talking about it should definitely be acceptable.

My post was regarding any hate speech, but I see you trying to play semantics

That’s not what I asked, I asked, do you think that Tommy Robinson’s Islamophobic comments are acceptable?

Do you say the same things as Tommy Robinson does around your table?

I'd have to see the posts with my own eyes first, is there any knocking about to view?

Calling people filthy scumbags is fine. The second one you mention is not an acceptable thing to do, and it doesn't sound like something he'd say, so I'd need to see it.

It's as simple as just turning him off yourself. You can do it. But remember to defend his freedom at all costs. Because one day, there might be people in positions of power that don't agree with you, and will take away your freedoms, and who will defend you, when you don't want to defend freedom yourself?

I dont have control of what other people put on their social media, hence I still see his face and the ****-tonne of hate messages that come alongside of it about. Its not quite as simple as ‘turning him off’....

Gonna be more pleasant without him and if YouTube follow suit, it will be virtually impossibile to ever see him. This is a good thing for everybody (apart from Tommy but maybe he can concentrate on getting an actual job instead now).

[parmnion]

Thing is though, that's all it is...forced social media....pretty easy to switch off unless you share the same ideals, then you just keep clicking.....do people stop reading certain sites when they see a post about how tommy Robinson should be shot or something like that..Or do they just skip on by to the next less extreme one.....

Thanks for that bit of useless information, that could come in handy to me if I ever go on Mastermind.

You seem adamant that he said these things, so I'm guessing you've actually seen these posts?

No but I’m more likely to trust the BBC (which says that he did say them), than you.
