Of course to you, as an American, the BBC must be an alien concept.
I’m French / British SHR, lol.
also find it rather amusing that you post a Daily Express link, a tabloid rag here in the UK and have the audacity to describe it as “evidence”. A claim by a disgruntled ex employee and another link to the Express on Sunday. Especially though after you flippantly dismissed one of the best research universities in the entire world, the LSE, as a “bunch of marxist leftites”.
I also linked to The Guardian, who actually are ‘marxist lefties’, it doesn’t refute the information they are reporting on though.
Oh ffs! So you’re telling me, asking for an opinion on whether or not a doll, who happens to be black, is against the law?! All because of his name! If he was just called doll, would you be as outraged then?
Take it as an admission that her argument is flawed and can’t win the debate.
Comments or posts deemed to be of a racist, homophobic, slanderous, religious hatred or violent nature are also breaches of UK law no matter where the site is hosted and are a breach of the UK’s “Communications Act 2003”. I have saved all comments, screenshot private messages and emailed the site owner. I hope this site has an acceptable use policies’ that set out what cannot be put on their website. Most do not allow comments, videos and photos that offend or hurt people. I have also emailed Burstfire networks who are the hosting network company for just chat.
Lol!

You didn’t post any evidence, you gave an opinion and what you post ties in with your far right libertarian ideology. You do not budge an inch.
I’m not even far right, or a libertarian. Lol. I like libertarian politics, but I don’t think privatising infrastructure development or law enforcement would end well. If anything, I am a liberal, an actual liberal, not the progressive kind.
The license fee payer funds the BBC, just as the tax payer funds the government.
Licence fees that are managed by the government.
But on the BBC,
I can find more if none of those are enough to prove my point.
if you want a golly have one Drac….don’t feel ashamed on my account
I don’t want one, my first post on this thread was that I don’t understand why someone would want to buy one.
The government does not fund the BBC and I won’t hold my breathe waiting for you to post “evidence” that the BBC has racist policies. The same evidence you demand whenever an opinion is given.
So TV licences are nothing to do with the government then? And there are no punishments for not buying one? I posted evidence of racial discrimination on BBC job adverts, what more evidence could you want?
Even Hitler is not erased from the history books….now you’re being silly…..I suggest you go back and re read the thread then address any further questions towards me after actually reading what I have written
Yes, it was a silly answer because your argument seems silly to me. Nobody has said why the design of Golly itself is racist. Sophia has indirectly implied that black people look like Golly, but I don’t think that they do.
She means the one of Diane Abbot.
Yes, I just worked that one out lol. Sorry, I was a bit slow on that one.
I never voted for her…she doesn’t hold office because of me…..im not ignoring anything…just because I have not mentioned it does not mean I am ignoring it……when did we start discussing the bbc and funding that I am ignoring it…..
The BBC was mentioned just before Diane Abbot was, and you claimed that only an example of one person was given. But that is a fairly minor point.
as for examples….you don’t need your hand holding to go back over the whole thread….do it yourself
There are exactly zero examples in the thread of why Golly is bad. The only thing that comes close is somebody being called a Gollywog. What exactly do you want to do about that, erase Golly from history books and pretend he never existed?
as for that picture….we are discussing golly….not some character from pokemon which I have incidentley never seen before…..keep to the topic in hand….don’t dismiss the golly with some other picture you think you are clever enough to have googled
How are those characters any different that Golly?
My point was that it isn’t just our culture that has created things that look like that, and that might be relevent to the conversation later.
I am Indian….I can only talk about my experiences and what I can relate to regards to racism just for the record…..when a chatter regularly wished my children burn to death because I am a paki….do you think they were just doing it for effect…just to troll?
If you actually want me to answer that, I think that isn’t trolling because it is very specific in an action that should be taken.
Tinsel, you are now posting pictures of a Black woman having some kind of rant! isn’t that going off the main subject?
Where?
One person is not the government….she may be an mp but she does not represent the whole of the government….just like one white person does not represent all white people…and why surely should that be the type of racism I am most offended by? Again you assume to know something that I dont
She is allowed to hold office in government, and is not the only one who has views like this. You are also ingoring that the government continues to fund the BBC even though they have racist policies.
I meant ‘you’ as in everyone that is complaining about Golly.
There are plenty of examples why the doll in hand is controversial especially in todays society
Such as?
Since you don’t like talking about white people for some reason, lets talk about Japan instead.
You see characters in a similar style to Golly there, are they also racist?
From Pokemon:
From Dragon Ball:
These are also designed for children, coincidently.
And you might be wrong…maybe if Sophia kept quiet and suffered in silence the abuser would think he got one over her as she was too embarrassed to say those words publicly…..I don’t know what planet you are on Drac……….but seriously!!
I don’t think you understand why people troll.
bringing up such examples after pages and pages of examples of racism against black people is pretty lame
Why do you think that the government being racist is lame? Surely that should be the type of racism you are most offended by. Rather than a doll.
it doesn’t excuse the topic in hand and the reason the doll is controversial in todays society
Nobody who has said the doll is controversial has been able to explain why it is controversial. Golly barely even looks like a human, yet alone any kind of stereotype that exists about black people in ‘todays society’.
