The other protests this weekend (for Robinson)

Insults relating to somebody's skin colour are not racist for pointing out that other people have different skin colour. Kids notice that, it doesn't make them racist. Many non-white people now activley refer to themselves as black or brown for example, precisely because there is nothing wrong with it and they want to claim it for themselves out of pride.

What makes the issue of skin colour racist is the accompanying ideology that it is a mark of bestiality, inferiority, something that makes people more akin to apes than people, that sort of thing. That ideology was deliberately cultivated and believed by many as a means of justifying non white people as less than people, so that they had no right to freedom, or their own land, or their own culture etc. They needed to be civilized and taught and given those things by white people who knew better than those poor animalistic souls. So to make a joke about someone's skin colour in that context is to invoke all of that horrific logic, becuase that's the era that all of those insults come from.

If at some point white people start to be systematically and openly treated like pigs and cattle as were non-white races for the past 500 years then I would say that the term Gammon would be racist. But they aren't, and more to the point white people the world over are still predominantly powerful, wealthy and in a far greater position of influence in comparison to the vast majority of non white races. So no it's not.

It's an insult obviously. But not a racist one.

I just knew eventually some idiot would say you can't be racist against white people. Congratulations... ITS YOU!

What lies are those?

I also like the fact that you have admitted to lapping up lies yourself, that's good

There was no “huge” increase in hate crime.

Mate if you go back several pages I’ve already addressed all this, but do please continue stuttering on about it all day if you want, I’ve said all I’ve got to say on the subject.

You actually have the audacity to be calling people snowflakes on here. :D

Your first post on this thread to the Union Jack DMG incident was this -

Seen a video on fb of a couple of lads being escorted out of Durham today for daring to fly the Union Jack during the gala. :rolleyes: Honestly what the fuck has this country come to?

And the far left haven’t? The far left are just as reprehensible as the far right.

All extremism is bad not just far right extremism, get it through your head.

Thicker than whale spunk.



Similar to how the left lap up lies about huge increases in hate crime after Brexit then?



Well, most of the snowflakes on here seem to have no problem labelling anyone who disagrees with them as racist and/or thick yet you haven’t accused them of intolerance have you?

The left are the biggest hypocrites of all.

My non white family members and friends and members their communities have experienced an increase in racial slurs. Some of them lived here for decades and never experienced any prior to Brexit.

I never said you were. Only that you're holding a point of view regarding racism, that treats races differently and therefore is in itself racist.

racism has a lot to do with the connotation of the term used. the post you replied to raises some of those points.


the non-sugar coated reply :lol:

It does and hiding behind double standards doesn't make it ok either.

No need to apologise to you, you’ve failed to make a single valid point as usual.

Lies. I made a a very valid point that there are people including yourself that lap up this nonsense propoganda that is designed to stir up hatred and cause confusion for people and further an agenda (again this time a right wing one). The aim is for this to spread like wildfire so your average Joe gets sucked in.

But you're holding a point of view that throws away any nuance and context and instead relies on semantics.
By doing so you're essentially telling people who have had hundreds of years of oppression to get over the words used to concrete that oppression, while simultaneously making it on par with a new word made up to take the mickey out of angry men of the same colour. It's a ludicrous standpoint and so weirdly myopic considering the careful and considered stance you take on other topics.

It's been a while since I've seen someone incorrectly use the word semantics on the board:lol: although to be fair no one seems to ever use it correctly.

I'm careful and considered now? I was missing nuances time and time again a second ago :lol:

Never mind mate, all I'm pointing out is the double standards. I honestly couldn't care less what you call angry white people. Just that if it was angry black people being compared to sliced meat, a lot more people would be up in arms.
