If you've noticed, Frank has apologised for his, just like Diane did. Yes, I do know that . Did you miss the point that I made ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Carter icp Posted March 13 Share Posted March 13 4 hours ago, NanLaew said: Here you go Nick. When I worked in the US, all my girlfriends were black but I did have a white fiancée. Now, back on topic. Nobody's accused you of being racist. It was hinted that I was a racist, because I was triggered and annoyed when racism was mentioned . No one suggested that you were a racist though , so you are just showing off your Black girlfriend, just like Jeremy Corby showed off his Black girlfriends . I do hope that you don't post any naked photos of them to show them off even further 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You started this "I'm not a racist" cock wave by "showing off" your UK property with your "Black Female" lodger (your capitalisation, not mine) and choosing her over "numerous White girls" (your capitalisation again).

Triggered is a bit of an understatement. You're trying too hard. I was accused of being a racist , or least having sympathy with racism . I was just pointing out that I wasn't a racist because of my association with Black people Why did you post about having a Black girlfriends ? No one accused you of anything . You just posted it to go one better than having a lodger (I do believe that Black and White should be capitalised when describing a persons colour , am I allowed to google it see whether it is or not, or am I still banned from googling ?) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NanLaew Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 2 hours ago, Nick Carter icp said: I was accused of being a racist , or least having sympathy with racism . No. No you were not. You only thought you were being accused of being a racist, and that's a misunderstanding that's been clarified and apologised for already. 2 hours ago, Nick Carter icp said: I was just pointing out that I wasn't a racist because of my association with Black people You mean because of your business dealing through having a black female tenant. That's fine. Makes a change from "some of my best friends are black." 2 hours ago, Nick Carter icp said: Why did you post about having a Black girlfriends ? Because you pointed out you had a black lodger as an indication of not being the racist (that nobody's accused you of being). It also makes a change from "some of my best friends are black." 2 hours ago, Nick Carter icp said: No one accused you of anything . Apart from you rather bizarrely warning me not to post naked photos of the former black girlfriends "to show them off even further" like Corbyn did with his mates, you are right. 2 hours ago, Nick Carter icp said: You just posted it to go one better than having a lodger You can't be serious? I was illustrating how you having a black female lodger means bugger all if you're the racist (that nobody's accused you of being). Anyway, it's entirely Up to you to follow the diversity and inclusion herd and capitalize black and no, nobody's stopping you googling anything either. I did and here's your starter for ten... Both perspectives may have informed The Seattle Times when, counseled by a diversity and inclusion task force, it updated its style guide last year as follows: Black (adj.): Belonging to people who are part of the African diaspora. Capitalize Black because it is a reflection of shared cultures and experiences (foods, languages, music, religious traditions, etc.) … white (adj.): Belonging to people with light-colored skin, especially those of European descent. Unlike Black, it is lowercase, as its use is a physical description of people whose backgrounds may spring from many different cultures. https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2020/06/time-to-capitalize-blackand-white/613159/ Can o' worms.

Some of you guys do like to accuse others of being racists as frequently as possible No, I’m observing that you obviously have a sensitivity to the statement that Hester is a racist. Going so far as to trawl through the thread to count occurrences of the term. Why that is, I have no idea, but it is observable fact. I trust you do not dispute Hester is a racist, calling him a racist is simply a statement of fact. Edited March 14 by Chomper Higgot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have any issues or sensitivity with people accusing Hester of racism , that wasn't my point . I did read 8 times you stating something about racism and on the 9 th time you posted, "Lets not forget that this is about racism " , like, how are we supposed to forget, when you keep going on about it . My point was your repetitiveness, rather than the actual content . I did have to scroll back to count how many times that you mentioned it , otherwise I wouldn't have been able to state 9 times and the thread was only three pages long at the time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's that old adage about elephants? And Hester's comments were made 5 years ago. And he's formally apologised. But I suppose because he's not a leftie he should never be forgiven. P.S. Dianne Abbot also insulted Jews and Irish people. And she still sits in Parliament! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He raised legitimate concerns about Khan's apathy towards extremist behaviour while constantly banging on about Islamophobia. Khan behaves as though the extremists have him in their pocket, and Anderson was brave enough to call him out on it. He later went on to say his words were clumsy, but he finds it hard to contain his frustration about what's happening in our capital. Most people I know agree with his sentiments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
