F A Chairman

Quoted from Rodley Mariner

Heart breaks that some middle aged and old white men on the Fishy can no longer thoughtlessly say what they want without being pulled up on it. Puts the struggles of others around the world into some context.

This post perfectly sums up the problems with today's PC warriors.
I find it offensive to old white men and suggest you offer a grovelling apology or risk being cancelled from the site or even worse forced to resign from your place of employment !
The issue with you Left-wing Liberal types is that we are forced to abide by the laws of the word police whilst you are able to say anything you like without fear of retribution, and herein lies the problem.

flipping hell. Calm down snowflake.

Just to help an old middle class white male what is the correct term for someone from the Indian sub continent?

Quoted from TAGG

White straight men are the bottom of the group hierarchy especially those over 40 who have not got a university education (i use that word very loosely)

There is a lot of racism and devision in this country now because of neo Marxist groups like BLM and facist mobs like antifa who emply exactly the same tactics of intimidation and violence as the Brown Shirts from 1936 onward.

Please supply 3rd party evidence that BLM is a 'neo Marxist group' (and The Daily Mail is not 3rd party evidence)

It is laughable that you describe "antifa" as a "fascist mob". Antifa stands for anti fascist.

Please supply 3rd party evidence of antifa emplying (sic) "exactly the same tactics of intimidation and violence as the Brown Shirts from 1936 onwards"

I think you are confusing German Nazism with the British Union of Fascists under Oswald Mosley. The forerunner of the SS (The SA) in Nazi Germany wore brown shirts until Hitler purged them in The Night Of The Long Knives. The British Union Of Fascists wore black shirts and were known as 'The Black Shirts'. The British Union of Fascists was formed in 1936 but the SA was purged in late June 1934 and stopped wearing brown shirts at that time.

But hey, let's not let a few facts get in the way of a red faced, gammon infused rant about political correctness.

BLM
Read there own mission statement.
Look at the leaders of BLM they are self proclaimed Marxist revolutionise.

Just look at any propaganda film from 1936ish and you will recognise the simplicity in tactics between antifa and the brown shirts.
Violence, intimidation and if you don't give into there doctrine and demands then you are fair game.
Will you denounce antifa????

You raise a really good point. With all the worlds problems, why is it do you think people get fixated on the only thing that matters is to use the current (though certainly not permanent)  description as approved by the PC brigade? If the approved description changes next week, where does that leave things?

It has got so ridiculous that if a billionaire philanthropist said I am going to give 20 billion pounds to try to eradicate discrimination in football for "Players of colour" the only talking point would be "OMG he has used a description not approved... "

Sure this board is populated by Daily Mail readers.

Or to simplify it - a lot of black people find it offensive to be referred to as 'coloured' so don't do it.
