The concept of sub Saharan African legionaries is so out there, I think it is up to you to prove that there were if that is what you were suggesting. Always demanding evidence from people but slinking away when you are asked. Your tactics are plain for all to see.

what a pathetic' response, I hardly think someone who was so concerned with historical accuracy they were actually checking if someone would have been present, actually thought it necessary to specify that the characters shouldn't be black.

The author is quite clear she is seeking to be historically accurate, so that rules out black people in high places at that time.

I'm sure you know, but for the benefit of those who don't this is termed "revisionism" - the rewriting of history to fit current political agendas.

I am wondering how "To Kill a Mocking Bird" would work with a white actor. I remember how our Leftie English teacher was incensed at the injustice of how the jury verdict didn't fit the evidence. It was a work of fiction FFS, albeit supposedly representative.

He seems to be very shy, he clams right up when asked to support his arguments - just slinks quietly away.

Can you give supporting data?

"Mantel said she spent five years researching and writing the book, trying to match her fiction to the historical record.[6] To avoid contradicting history she created a card catalogue, organised alphabetically by character, with each card containing notes indicating where a particular historical figure was on relevant dates. "You really need to know, where is the Duke of Suffolk at the moment? You can't have him in London if he's supposed to be somewhere else," she explained.

What are we talking about, abortion? At some point in late stage pregnancy there is indisputably another person involved, so it is not "our bodies ourselves". Both extremes are wrong. Abortion is not a "health choice" in anything other than medically indicated abortions e.g. ectopic pregnancies or rape/incest pregnancies.

Perhaps the Left could spend less time trying to control the lives of others.

Ah so that's what the Left calls what it does - I call it applying a standard template.

Threads evolve and go off on side discussions. They don't have to follow a direction set by you.

A lot of freeloaders.

Oh, so you are saying that anybody who disagrees with the Left or the false narrative of wokeism is a "stupid, loutish person"? Where does the Left get this assumed intellectual and moral superiority from? I think it is from never having being held to account for your errors - screw up and there are no consequences.

He's a Leftie, they are always nasty, despite what they think, because they are attracted by the license to hate. The hate is on the Left,

You need to get out more.

You lost. Suck it up.

can you explain "knuckle dragger" please. I see it used a lot by the kind of Leftie who reads the Guardian and considers themselves to be superior (probably because they are smart enough to "get" Socialism).

Always the snidey put down, always insinuating other members are inferior in some way.

Historically, the contribution of Afro Caribbean troops in WW1 and 2 has been shamefully underrepresented, but other than that.....

Exactly.

There was/is a constant fish kill in Khlong Saen Saeb - my guess from fish swimming in an area where toxin was released and then drifting downstream. I also saw a dead 9ft (including tail) crocodile floating by one day. Big enough to take a young child or dog.

Mai ruujaak por Not know enough i.e. you don't know when to stop.

Coz there is no sin sod in Thai society in that case, only for farangs.

Nah, they wouldn't have the performance and cameras to record it if that was the case, and besides, would "Community Leaders" give their consent?
