Racism And The Cumberbatch Conundrum

It's no surprise he was all mouth and no trew. Seems he didn't like his bluff being called. Think I'll leave it there.

It's weird how a lot of people play the man rather than the ball on this forum, anyhow you have made some incorrect assumptions about me, but what or who i am is irrelevant to this particular discussion.
My point is that this PC shyte, whilst i admit it is a bit shyte and far from ideal, is there for a reason. To protect the vulnerable and historically abused. It's a shame that it's needed. If we use the example of 'spastics' having to be renamed to cerebral palsy, it takes the confusion and heat about race, or where someone is from out of the equation, or if we use the example of irish, you must know how they (the irish) were treated.

Do you consider yourself British? If so, what is the difference from the point of this debate about a 1st generation muslim and you? Both born in this country, to immigrants.

Perhaps we could learn from the mistakes of how we as a society treated the irish/disabled or whatever in the past. Might cause less bombs and stuff.

there are fuktards in every society , all over the world , in a lot of eastern and african countries disabled people of all kinds are hidden away behind closed doors, in others they are wheeled through the streets for begging purposes , a small percentage of the main populus will always use insulting language to describe people different to themselves because they are thick in the head , intelligent folk won't........we therefore have a speech code in place which is aimed at people who are too thick to understand it....no...?

 

[Questions]

The binfestery in this thread is hilarious!

 

[OzMike]

I see this has gone slightly off topic then!

priceless!!

Hmm. So you can't discuss, your way or just ****or the wanker smillie. Perhaps get a bit of education then you might be able to expand on your answers, or at least get your points over without stooping to playground retorts.

You never answered my question, Do you believe that Paki is not an offensive term to use in the UK?

great in theory and would sort out the keyboard warriors but i fear some would not bother turning up and would rather brag later on how the opponent was a mug for walking around the ring like a loser waiting for his opponent who wasnt going to turn up anyway because he would have stabbed him or something

makes a mockery of charity boxing.


this thread has turned to bollocks anyway

so here is a video on ancient aliens.

There's nothing worse than getting called a Brightonian, when you come from Hove.

Pure ignorance and a lack of education.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

You don't get an invite now.

Don't worry, it wouldn't be the end of the world if you did, just apologise and move on.

I hesitate to ask, which term are you unsure of?

And therein lies the problem.

I don't know because I haven't used it yet.

Well there isn't often the need to refer to someone's race/creed etc.
Why don't you ask them?

'are you british?'
yes -> what's the ethnicity of your ancestors?
no -> where are you from?

Presuming it's a race thing.

Is it really that simple?

Ask someone of Asian descent if they were British? What would they say?

 

[ThePompousPaladin]

If they are british they say 'yes' and maybe add, my 'parents were born in bangladesh'.
If not you ask them where their ancestors are from, they say 'bangladesh'.

If they're not british they say 'No, i'm from bangladesh.'

I don't see what the issue is? I mean presumably you need to know for some reason? Or are you fishing for something?

I'm not fishing.

Your point is that all this is very simple and straightforward and everyone should know and understand what is and is not acceptable in modern society. And I don't think it is.

Can you really imagine having a casual conversation including "what's the ethnicity of your ancestors?"
