Is it OK to say this.

In before the lock...

 

[Bodd]

Sadly not. The ignorant just keep trotting out more and more acronyms.

It will be an uphill task. Trés slow.

I think if you make an effort, then we can all make an effort.. We can all join hands. Do wash your hands....

 

[Bodd]

Are there?

I thought a privileged white man who calls black children "picanninies" and says Africans have "watermelon smiles" and muslim women "look like letterboxes" is simply a racist. Mind you he looks down on British workers as well.

Maybe he's not a racist, he's maybe just a dick........

 

[JohnD]

Maybe he's both.

 

[Bodd]

Maybe he's both.

Maybe he's neither.

 

[EFLImpudence]

He must be one or both.

He has been trained by Trump's mentors and is doing exactly the same as he is.
The comparisons are obvious and frightening.


Any one who was not one or both would not stoop as low.

Snowflakes and we are in the middle of summer.

Snowflakes and we are in the middle of summer.

If we can get round this one rule for one thing then I think you and your lefty mates will melt.....

 

[festive]

Snowflakes and we are in the middle of summer.

Absolutely agree, poor neglected minorities

Maybe he's not a racist, he's maybe just a dick........

I think we can add a few extra charges to his rap sheet...

"British colonialism in Africa is "not a blot upon our conscience."
"The problem is not that we were once in charge, but that we are not in charge any more."

"Female Malaysian students only go to university to find men to marry"

"Voting Tory will cause your wife to have bigger breasts"

"If gay marriage was OK – and I was uncertain on the issue – then I saw no reason in principle why a union should not be consecrated between three men, as well as two men, or indeed three men and a dog."

Perhaps Boris Johnson's racist tendencies is just one of his characteristics that encouraged some to vote for him, and why he remains popular among some others, despite being a bumbling, bungling buffoon.

So we are not allowed to say WLM.
Would it be OK to say Indigenous Lives Matter?

If you're referring to the indigenous people of Britain, I think you're about a couple of thousand years too late. But if you think it's important, you go for it.
If you're referring to the indigenous people in other countries, e.g. USA, Australia, New Zealand, etc You may have a valid point.

 

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

We really need to get beyond being concerned what colour peoples skin is

That'll be why some post whatever bit of gossip they can find that remotely relates to colour, race, ethnicity or racism.

To most people, especially those that regularly socialise with various ethnicities on an interpersonal level colour is irrelevant. But for those that do not regularly socialise with various ethnicities and retain their prejudiced view, and at a societal, organisational, structural level, inequality based on ethnicity, and racism needs to be addressed
