Anyone else backing up your definition of an idiot yet?

Probably scared you’ll threaten to level them ffs.

Imagine offering to level people on the internet

The Dutch are statistically the tallest people. That's not a racial slur.

Is saying Asians are good at maths a racial slur, apparently it is according to some on here.
Bit of a minefield this isn't it?

My work here is done. Broken.

Why don't you call me an idiot in your own inimitable way?

Are grown men still arguing about cocks?

Young lad simply asks people to stop singing about the size of his penis and instead we have fans saying they will still sing about and give reasons trying to defend it.

 

[Splasher]

It is. It might have meant something else in the 70’s but it’s now slang and nowt to do with disability.

I really agree with almost everything you’re saying in the thread. Song is 100% racist and should not be sang at all. However, I’m telling you for definite that M is an ableist word and really not acceptable to use any more. You seem like a decent person and someone who wants to be on the progressive side of society so I’d ask you trust me on this one. Apologies if this sounds patronising, just please stop using the word.

We’re embarrassing ourselves fans stop it.

Even our woke fans are at it.

Yeah he's a lovely lad. Seems to understand all the nuances of what racism is, and is holier than thou. Then casually drops in the M word and refuses to apologise, in my eyes he's worse than those muppets in the South stand.

If it’s racially stereotyping then it absolutely is racist. How in 2022 are you trying to use this argument to say it isn’t racist

If you use a person's race, gender or religion you define yourself by ignoring the topic you are discussing.....two sides to every story... listening is a lost art

Except hair colour, gingers despair.

In a fairness the best looking girl at our school was ginger, stunning.

I’m not defending it. The lad doesn’t want us to sing it, so we shouldn’t. It’s not racist though.

Why do you reckon the lad doesn’t want us to sing it? Not keen on the tune?

Only the racists

 

[woodlebert]

There's no discrimination or prejudice involved. It's not racist by definition.

Surely there is prejudice based on a racist stereotype?
