Honeymoon Period Over for Kamala Harris Polls Show Tight Race

[georgegeorgia]

As an older man ,I have embraced Change 

We need to become more "woke" and stop using words and using pronouns to describe things ,we need to embrace this so we can all live in harmony 

 

I was in a bar last night I had no idea the word "pommy" was offensive in describing a British citizen 

I heard a younger British who looked like a backpacker type have a go at a Aussie guy about being called a "pommy" 

Unfortunately the rough tattooed Aussie guy refused to apologise but it's not his fault he needs re-education?

 

Is there any words that are offensive that we need to stop using to embrace the exciting change of cultural and linguistic diversity?

 

Are you a British citizen,who is offended by the word "pommy" ?

And we must call people British citizens because they are citizens of that country not necessarily it's "their" country 

 

What words do you hate ,I do know a man at my work a few years ago hated being called " mate" 

 

The word "boy " can be offensive to some 

Dear Sir or Madam is now not encountered 

 

But please all I'm asking is what words are offensive to you that's all asking

I'm offended by the word "woke"....

 

People who willingly give into the woke virus are the same type of people who bought into the masking idiocy.  Unnecessary baggage among humanity.

I don't care what others say because their opinions mean nothing to me. Being called 'mate' does make me cringe. Otherwise, I still go by what I learned as a child, "Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names can never hurt me."

Any word which pisses off the woke idiots is a good word.

Two Poms, a Dutchie, a Frog, three Yanks, two Krauts, an Eyetie, an albino <deleted>, seven Scandi's of mixed lineage, a Wop, a Paddie. three Geordies, and a <deleted> walked into a bar. The barman looked up and said "Is this a joke or something?"

 

Being called a Pommy by an Aussie back in the day was usually preceded with the adjective whinging, or followed by the noun Bawstard, and dates from the 50's and 60's era of the five or ten pound Pom.

 

A young Aussie wouldn't be aware of the history, and old Poms hold a post-colonial grudge about Antipodeans from the world's largest outdoor prison.

 

Edit: It just goes to show how woke the world is. The auto"<deleted>" nationalities used to be common parlance. They were meant to be offensive - that's the point. Hell in a handcart, beam me up Scottie.

I am old so I get triggered when someone says global warming or climate change. 
 

Everyone knows it a scam by the “elites” because they secretly want us to be poor and downtrodden because they are mean. 

98% of the climate scientists are claiming it to be true but I believe my politicians on important matters, not scientists.

 

i know it has been getting hotter and there are more extreme weather events during the last 30 exactly as the scientists said would happen.

But it is just a coincidence.

 

When I was a young child I remember getting sun burnt.

And if it is true it will good for everyone anyway. More sunshine and more water equals more crops.

I didnt think you were old. Doesnt seem like youve learned much in your many years. What have you been using your time for other than trolling online?

I have forgotten more than you will ever know.

 

Currently learning another language and bedding 3-5 women per week and enjoying retirement in tropical paradise. What about you? 
Not learning anything new, taking matters into your own hands while living under Democrat rule?

'Words sentences that are offensive'.  Punctuation mistakes offend me.

Just a few years ago I would have thought that this post was made in jest. These days, it's all too common to meet people who behave this way.

I dislike Pommy aka POME, I also dislike Falang, I was chatting to an Irish guy in a bar, and I happened to say, during the conversation that I used to work with a lot of Paddys, he hit the roof calling me racist, and became quite aggressive, I finished my beer quickly and left. By the way I have an Irish surname, that this guy said, that's not a name it's an Irish institution.

There will always be someone who is offended by something. The 'woke' have  appointed themselves as the feelings police and pander to everyone who feels upset by something.

Any word or term can become offensive if enough fuss is kicked up about it.

 

A few that spring to mind are Spastic, Spina Bifida, disabled, queer,  deaf and dumb, and even he, she, him and her nowadays.

 

What a bland world we are heading for.

Strangely the word "handicapped" is banned in Australia 

I recall a contractor ( charity collection) who was a young  American student working  in my workplace

 

he said to another colleague who was a "Fat Karen"  that a handicapped person was outside 

 

She complained to his supervisor that it was offensive,he was warned that it's "disability" not handicapped,poor boy

Hopefully you don't have the same Irish surname as mine 

I'm offended by my Irish surname because we invaded Australia and we must apologise and change our names , eventually as you know we will all be called Mohammed but that's a different story and please don't try to get me off topic !!!

I'm Very proud of my Irish name and heritage.

Sad you had to bring up a racist slant yourself., I have no intension of going off topic but you seem to want too, by bringing a religion into it. Sad person you are.

Would that be the same science that says women can have a penis ? You are wrong and a bad person

Isn't the correct term "differently abled"?

You are joking right?      The Uk was the original source of migrants to both the USA and Australia.   The best of stock from the UK was taken by force to scandinavia  by the vikings who left behind only the scum.  We painstakingly recovered what we could from the detritus that was left and then diligently set about dealing with what what was left

                    The "thick" and the ugly were sent to America,   and the bad were sent to Australia

Start a topic dude, Ill be glad to debate the issue of an existential climate crisis. You should be able to beat me easily, right, I voted for Trump.

 

Personally, every time I hear the word climate crisis I reach for my Glock. What a fascist plot.
