So the EU parliament has been blocked for taking part in negotiations.

Remind me again why you want to stay with these people?

Being that the parliament is the only democratic part of the EU, European citizens can no longer have any input in the way they want the negotiations to go.

A quick follow up point, do you think that racist abuse is comparable to homophobic abuse? I definitely understand what that is like.

I have actually recieved ‘racist’ comments before, but I just laughed at them. Mostly because they were made under the assumption that I was Mexican, which i’m not.

Hey, and welcome to Just Chat!

Really, so being called a gollywog is as bad as being a holocaust survivor?

That doesn’t seem right to me.

She has explained nothing, and given no documented examples.

You are also ignoring that she said specifcally that white people (as in all of them) are unable to understand it, which impies either that racism against white…[Read more]

Offence is taken, not given, apparently.

It’s pretty obvious you didn’t intend to offend anyone Tinsel, so don’t worry about it.

I think it’s more “Listen to my rhetoric, and if you question it then you are clearly <something>-ist”.

Socrates is turning in his grave.

Wait … if they are harmless, how are they offensive?

You’re avoiding all of my questions still, lol.

Asking you to explain something is rubbish?

Racism is genetically heritable, thats quite a claim. Do you have any evidence to support that?

Then please explain it.

But why? Tinsel never said anything remotely racist.

I should clarify my previous post with the fact that I don’t think that any individual word can be offensive, it is the intention with which the word is used that causes the offence. I don’t really understand the attempts some people make a language policing, there is no evidence that a word itself can cause harm. And banning a word does not…[Read more]

Well them, I guess you can explain to me, precisely, why it is offensive. Because so far you have only said it is offensive because you feel it is.

How do you know what race people are?

That seems a little bit … racist?

Can you name a specific case where this has happened? Of all the things you could call someone, gollywog seems like…[Read more]
