Sorry, I'm very short of time these days.
You guys might be on holiday, ours was Friday last but I was working anyway. I must, just to keep the wolves (and the weeds) at bay, etc.
But this one is worth a quick reply.
This thread of Dex's absolutely typifies his usual style.
He's not openly racist, as I said before, but he does persistently start thread and skirt around the edges, that give others the opportunity to make racist remarks.
Now his suggestion would be that he's taunting me to respond with some criticism of his potentially racist thread.
What is his motivation for taunting me?
Only one reason, I could imagine: he wants to discredit me.
What is his motivation for wanting to discredit me, as opposed to discrediting explicit racists? I'll leave you lot to consider that.
As a supposed school teacher in Manchester, where I imagine he comes into contact with a high number of ethnic minorities, does he show the same degree of impartiality?
If so, I'm sorry that there are still such teachers in positions of authority.
I'm off to do some work.
