I love when people - let’s call them lockdown deniers - think that because the numbers from covid aren’t as high as what was projected means that the lockdown wasn’t needed.

I wonder why those numbers weren’t as high 🤔 Oh yeah, the lockdown stopped that from happening.

You just know some c*nt is sat there now watching all the classics like Only Fools and Horses episode by episode waiting to find something to be offended by.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
More likely a raft of s are watching it trying to find things they *think* some people might be offended by, so that they can argue on social media that “if Little Britain is taken down, then you have to want OFAH taken down too - wHeRe DoEs It EnD!!!”

Just makes it seem and gives the impression that black people can not take a joke or have a laugh and fully serious and even something as a minor as a black face in a tv show can be considered racist. It is way to OTT and gives the impression black people are super sensitive and soft and PC and can’t take any form of a joke, Which is not the case or intention, so again this is more damaging and does more harm for black people and the majority are totally against it.

Idiot companies are trying to go to far now to score points
----------------------------------------------------------------------
What on Earth are you on about?

“Black people” have not campaigned for Little Britain to be taken down, neither have “black people” performed the act.

This curation doesn’t suggest anything at all about black people. It might suggest some things about the media organisations involved and about the current sociopolitical climate.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You have not understood his post

He’s saying that this is what it makes it look like and that it therefore detracts from the actual legitimacy of the BLM protest
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No, it doesn’t.

Unless you have very serious difficulties with logic.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I’ll let him answer but that’s how I read it.

Where in history do you draw the line?


you don't, just because stuff was acceptable years/decades/centuries ago doesn't give it a free pass now
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I see. I suppose you’ll be campaigning to remove everything that is the product of racism? You’ll be a busy boy
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Hahaha what an idiot
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Instead of being dismissive why don’t you answer the question? Are you suggesting there is a line?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I meant the other guy not you, sorry it was confusing
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The dismissive part still stands, though.

I am not entirely sure

Yeh rossi is wrong, i was making the point Rosso that petty stuff like this gives the impression black people can't take a joke and want all stuff like this taken down etc when that is not the case and they haven't asked for it. And it then damages/weakens the BLM protest because it gives the impression they are just super sensitive and being all me me me and we want this we want that when it's not the case

The people that interpret it that way think that way already, so it matters little really.

“It damages the BLM movement”

If you think not being able to watch one TV show on a few specific platforms while being able to watch it via a plethora of other ways undermines a whole movement. Then you are either a racist, an idiot or on the wind up.

If I had completely failed to grasp someone else's point, I'd be a little wary of suggesting that they were an idiot.

Read up on Basque nationalism. A lot of those northern provinces have historical differences with Madrid and the south, fielding local players was a small way of preserving the identity of the region. I’m not saying I agree with it, I’m just saying in the grand scheme of things there are probably more important things to worry about.

Sorry you said undermines a whole movement. Semantics aside, that clearly wasn’t his point.

I don’t know why you’re asking the question. None of us as far as I’m aware have defended the Bilbao policy up until this point so you’re creating an argument where there is none.

But on the subject of Bilbao, they are a sporting club who have a commitment to promoting the youth of their local area (white or black) and are pretty open about that and I doubt anyone is so upset about not being able to play for Bilbao that they’d make it an issue.

Is it discriminatory? Under the letter of the law, probably and I’m not arguing that. If the Spanish government (or local Basque parties) decided to force Bilbao to start hiring players from outside the area due to the original rules being discriminatory then I wouldn’t lose an ounce of sleep.
