So a 2-second google shows it was written in 1865. And slavery ended in the US when? Oh, and not written by an ex-slave either.

Except perception > fact nowadays. If they argue in the way you do, they'll be seen as not being actively being non-racist (if that even makes sense).

For me you're a racist if you do racist things. Now it seems like you're a racist if you are not actively preaching about BLM from the rooftops.

If you're going to try and say league is better then double ban for you!

 

[Wij]

If you're going to try and say league is better then double ban for you!

I grew up around Union and can honestly say that League people are nicer

 

[dysfunction]

I don't get it. In today's world it doesn't have any connotation to Slavery.

Found out what Katie was banned for.

Someone posted she needs a good black man to give her a fucking.

She replied.
As long as he's hung like a baboon.
Classic Blackadder line

And the rest is history.

Interview with (spit) Sky News Australia.

Well done..you searched

Generally though when providing facts you also provide evidence of those facts by linking to sources. You should try it more often.

For something obscure
It piss easy to find.

Now, what's different about the context of the Blackadder line and what Katie Hopkins said? I'll wait.

Second, why would the US corporation Twitter Inc. assume, in the context of well-known xenophobic rabble-rouser Katie Hopkins, that she was paraphrasing a 30-odd year old Blackadder scene in the first place?

 

[Scouse]

Funny. About 3 minutes into that interview after making a reasonable fist of things (notwithstanding @DaGaffer's point above) - the veil slips and they go full @Job - "we won't be able to call it Blackadder any more, we'll have to call it George-Floyd-Adder".

Equating the injustice of a murdered black man and the clear need for structural reform with a fantasy of "political correctness gone mad" in defence of a wanker like Hopkins?


What a gaggle of disgusting twats. (Not surprised it's in Oz though - apart from the spiders the other reason I'd never move there is that they're a bunch of openly racist fucks and large swathes of them are unpleasant to be around because of that - @Job should emigrate, he'd love it).



Yes, she should never had been banned, and free speech protects us all - the real horror here is that we clearly don't have it and we have a population who only approve of it when it doesn't upset them (but would burn people who do).

Ironically - crying over a giant thundercunt like Hopkins getting banned is the right thing to do. Yes, racists are up in arms, but they're never going to do the right thing for the right reasons. It's incumbent on people who can think to do it.

 

[Job]

Agreed, they were waiting for tiny crack they could get their teeth into.

 

[caLLous]

A tiny crack. Jesus Christ. She's been wilfully inciting hatred for years.

And number of Twitter followers means fuck all... there's more botting/manipulation on that social network than all the others put together.

Its a joke ...and the right are far more reserved.
The left is a tirade of threats, personal abuse, riots and cancel culture.

They quite simply have descended into gutter on every level..by every measure.
Its a hysteria that you wouldnt support for a nano second if it was the other way around.
If a policeman gets killed next week and white conservatives start rioting, mass protesting , pulling down statues and getting left wingers banned en masse on behalf of blue lives matter, you would be losing your shit.

Study Links Disparities in Pain Management to Racial Bias

UVA psychology Ph.D. candidate Kelly Hoffman’s study finds that medical students and residents who held false beliefs about biological differences between blacks and whites were less likely to effectively manage the pain of black patients.

But you're not?

1) I've been there, I know what they're like even in their metropolitan centres, 2) my brother used to do all the online advertising for that station in particular - so I've met them, 3) there's absolutely nothing surprising about how right wing people are thick - I've posted the science on that subject many times

Wonderful...

Importantly, white medical students and residents who did not endorse these false beliefs did not show the same bias.

...so if you're a bit dim you tend to exhibit racial bias, but that can be cured by a better level of education.

Thanks for proving your ideas on the worth of education are shit @Job
