Er he just told me to get head out of trump's bottom and then made a homophobic comment. His tone is 24/7 aggressive, he calls anyone who disagrees with his wild claims a racist.

Any member who is defending his what can only be described as a week long rant at the moon 9is doing so for tribal Tibb reasons and not from logic or even concern.

And to TS point. It's not things don't get done because people don't ask right, things are getting done every week, month, year but some people are too young and impatient to see change or know how to get it without smashing things up when they don't get their way.

It's much easier to throw a rock than it ever is to stand locally get elected to and make real lasting change.

That will sadly never change

surprised this wasn't shared on here though, i personally would love to see Taylor running for president, in either 2022 or 2024


as for Trump himself, well if you can still call all of this ''fake news'' on your social media, and promoting yourself with ''i did a lot for black community in 3 1/2 years, more than Biden in 43 years'' i never saw him doing anything good for black community (apart from that one tiny bit during election campaign he happened to show up in a church to win over votes from black community), on contrary him demolishing Obama-care is actually doing something against them and all middle-class in america

yeah, i've just received an infraction for calling out the fact that a member has been personally insulting us on here all week ..... if that's moderation, you can shove it ... ban me, i don't care

People get angry and emotional about injustice, things escalate, people get angrier and even more emotional. Yes, especially young people. I'm not sure what your point there is, other than an expectation that they not react in human ways to massive perceptions of injustice? And - yes I'm going to use the P word - I believe the only reason you DON'T understand these severe, visceral reactions to injustice is that you are a white bloke in Scotland, and you and me have never had to face any real injustice. You are privileged. I'd be willing to bet you've faced plenty of small injustices, and I'd be willing to bet that those made you rather annoyed.

In fact, I've seen you get rather annoyed about little perceived injustices right here on this forum, so you can't even claim it isn't the case. A certain book review incident? You, and others, were furious. You were not calm, cool, collected and rational. Over what amounts to a petty forum squabble. Amplify that by a few thousand and maybe you can empathise with how black people - especially young black americans - are feeling at the moment, and why their actions might not fit with your concept of what would be ideal.

See, I very sadly agree with you on what the outcome is going to be on all of this.

People are going to get fatigued with the anger. Sympathy will wane. Those protesting will increasingly find themselves screaming into the hurricane (ranting at the moon, as you put it) with fewer and fewer unaffected people - the NUMBERS they need to push for any sort of change - taking the time to listen.

And then the movement will dissolve into the background and nothing will change. A few cops will go to jail. Hundreds of young black people will go along with them. The cycle will continue.

The difference is that I think that's an absolute ****ing tragedy.

Oh and would you look at that... isn't this timely...

"some people are too young and impatient to see change or know how to get it without smashing things up when they don't get their way."

Are you young and impatient as LT suggests, bots? You don't seem to be too pleased with the injustice? Of an infraction on a small internet forum. Hmm. Well well.

I couldn’t get to this stage of the video, but this sign broke me.

Bots going full on Alf is yet another surprising development in 2020.

No you recieved an infraction for a name calling insult

I really wish members wouldnt lie about infraction reasons.

[Josy]

Most are really passionate about the BLM movement and have been regularly posting on here about it without resorting to name calling, insults and so on.

Other members are attempting to bait said members and troll posts and threads so just know right now that we can see exactly what's going on and infractions will continue accordingly.

Some however are getting too worked up and becoming personal and insulting to other members sometimes bringing them up when they have no part in the thread or discussion.

All of this behaviour takes away from the importance of the discussions and awareness being raised in these threads so please just stop.

Dear The Slim Reaper,

You have received an infraction at ThisisBigBrother.com - UK TV Forums.

Reason: calling out the fact that a member has been personally insulting us on here all week

I'll wait...

Anything is possible if you want to believe, I suppose.

I don't care either way, if he wants to hide in a bunker that's on him

I'd do the same if a bunch of thugs were trying to break into my place

It all depends how you percieve things ,its the same with Boris supposedly 'hiding' in a fridge,the media imediately leapt on that when infact I was watching that program and he was infact already going into the fridge helping some guy with milk I think it was, he even had the overalls on that the other guys did,but it was enough to get that headline that he was 'hiding' NO he wasn't it just fits some agendas

You can clearly see in the boris clip he's walking in the direction of the news crew, then they announce themselves and ask him to come on the show as he then turns around to go back in the direction from whence he came.

No agendas, no stories, no make believe, just a fact

Slim he was going to go in there anyway,he has the gear on,I watched it when it was on and am pretty sure someone called him,he could see what they were up to,but whatever , the media whipped it into more than it was as usual.

Another take on that story, do you see what I mean about the media,they can spin anything the way they want to.
