Can you imagine any support for some of the gay or black candidates thirty years ago? They'd have been the first voted out because of 'what' they were, rather than 'who'. Instead they are now seen as individuals and treated accordingly.
Source?
I know Derek's in there, I mean a source for the allegation that the left-wing press shat themseleves...
Personally I think it has done wonders for race realtions. Now we can all see that no matter what the race, gender, sexuality etc, every one has it abhorrent example...
He's a hunts master as well IIRC.
He's the biggest bundle of stereotypical contradictions to be ever embodied by a human being.
He's also a cock.
Do you get some kind of weird kick out of making stuff up?
No idea why but it must appeal to the public in some way.
its called a mix of nutcases to entertain people, i dont get it myself
While at the same time pissing off your ilk. Result!
You are criticising Ch4 for including a cross section of society?
What would you prefer?
What?
I'm actually quite enjoying this years show, I also hope the black man Derek wins, whats the problem?
No, just pointing out what they do.
Funny how often your "observations" smell of racism, isn't it?
At the same time they gave badges to special needs people... But the ones they gave them to were the obnoxious ones.
But my mate was every bit as cool as everyone else really... Her family were ace. :thumb:
I havnt said anything racist in this thread
But hey, I said "smells like". I don't think that you are brave enough to be blatant...
Have you ever read a dictionary?
Negro is the correct term. Go read a dictionary if you dont believe me, pathetic, absolutely pathetic.
Yes, I know that the word exists in the dictionary. There are lots of words there, doesn't mean that they are all "acceptable".
It's all about connotations though. If someone like Martin Luther King (for example) uses the expression, it has a different connotation to when someone like Nick Griffin does.
The problem with your use is that you "smell" racist. I laugh when you accuse me of being pathetic as you don't seem brave enough to voice your actual opinion. You seem to try to dress it up to make it a palatable as possible. To me that truly is pathetic...
Do give me a few more.....those racist bastards who compile the dictionary must have enough.
Bullshit, stop trying to excuse racism.
You may as well have just translated that into...."Shit Ive lost the argument, I have no points to produce so I better just call him racist quick" Your right, truly pathetic. :thumb: :yippe:
You think they are racist? Words aren't racist, the context can be. Which is the point I was making above. I didn't expect you to get it, guess it needed to much thought.
Explain.
Nope, I think that there is enough evidence of your views around these boards to give me that viewpoint. Howeverm, you skirt around the issue so often without coming out with what you really think. You know that your views don't stand up to scruitiny, that they are based on ignorance and you don't ever want to confront them.
Instead you make snide comments and insinuations.
Fine, you think I'm pathetic for having that opinion. I don't actually care. But then I'm not the one who has to hide what he really believes. I'm secure enough not to be scared of anyone different to me, whether they are black, asian or gay. You cannot say the same, can you.
