I can assure you I’m not I just think there’s far worse things in the world than a spot of name calling.
Haven’t read that but have read ‘unforgivable blackness’ the book about the late Great Jack Johnson which is quite harrowing at times but that’s history and 100 year ago.
Times have change for the better but some people still want to cling onto a past that they had no part of.
I feel no remorse whatsoever for what white people may or may not have done long before I even existed.

I think "those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" is a pertinent quote.

And none of those people will be able to find anything either.
FFS I think I’m the only person on this thread who has said both blacks and white are no different yet I’m a racist :rolleyes:

It is no good cherry picking an odd sentence in on of your 67 posts in this thread, although it does seem to be a trait of yours to deflect and justify.
You might not think you are a racist, people can only judge by the comments you make, they include...
  • Admitting a racist comment was probably made but claimed you don't give a fuck whilst questioning why the comment was offensive.
  • You wouldn't be offended and outraged if monkey noises were aimed at black people and compared it to a Mexican wave.
  • You are unable to differentiate the difference between a banana being thrown at Barnes and a pie at Ginola.
  • You believe respect for other races is only the domain of ‘advanved’ (sic) Lefty elite and dismissing it as irrelevant.
  • You denied knowing there was systematic racial discrimination by the UK government resulting in UK citizens being deported from their own country.
  • Repeatedly justifying the Atlantic Slave Trade because blacks did it first.

  • Falsely claiming the Barbary slave trade was North Africans enslaving white people in North Africa, a deliberate misreading of history.
  • Continued the right wing myth that Black people do not succeed because they do not want to.
  • Repeatedly alleging white people are discriminated against whilst offering no examples.
  • Finally worst of all denying saying any of the above and declaring "I have said nothing remotely racist."

You might not think you are Racist but you are making a jolly good job of convincing others that you maybe one.

I think the word is tucked.
 
One thing I often see on here is the phrase "people getting offended for the sake of it" used to describe anyone who responds or reacts to something that is posted and dicussed.

Usually in regards to politics,racism or something reported in the press.

It often baffles me,because firstly I've observed the more right leaning posters use it all the time and this thread just confirms it.

Secondly what do they actually mean by the phrase?

It's often used without substance as well.

Do some really think that by actually commenting and expressing a view of Maja having a racial slur directed against them is being offended for the sake of it?

Whed often does it on the politics forum,usually after posting a link from twitter. "Folk just being offended" is a common retort.

Can't work this place out at times

Doesn't look like it; even MBH's latest login appears to have an accessible profile page. Mods must be in a good mood, because I'm not sure I'd be so generous.

It usually means they've been called out on the crap they've come up with. They're s convinced that their own world view is right (in all senses of the word), that they can't conceive why anyone could find fault with it.
