PC gone mad.. Diouf's fan

Status
Not open for further replies.
I read a column yesterday on why Diouf and other black people who think is acceptable are wrong and stupid. You people don't understand that the minority of black people offended by this are the important ones.
 
Is like you are all being racists on the inside, but all this damned political correctness is preventing you from expressing it. So this rage just builds and builds inside you. Then finally, the PC brigade oversteps the mark! Clearly that thing there wasn't racist at all! And all that pent up racist rage gets a safe release as you get to rant about your favourite topic, "PC gone mad".
 
It's unfortunate, but, racism is an objective test so whether or not the kid meant any offense is completely irrelevant. He made reference to Diouf's skin colour and that means prison or a very large fine. Why isn't the society for black lawyers on the case? This kid needs to be brought to justice.

Lol.

Made me laugh but probably the most true thing on this thread, "PC gone mad" is overrated.
On another note, try reading some of the comments posted to the Boateng walkoff article on the Telegraph site, there's some proper crazies around...
 
"PC gone mad" is most certainly not "overrated" in ridiculous cases like this, which damage the cause of anti-racism instead of doing it any good, precisely because they give those numbskulls something to hide behind.
 
That comparison is based on what exactly?
I merely note the outpouring of anger every time we have an outbreak of "PC gone mad". Not just on this forum of course. Why so angry? So some poor idiot got wrongly accused of being racist or sexist. It is a shame of course, but why do these particular incidents generate that much emotion? We live in a world filled to the brim with brutal, horrible injustices, yet nothing seems to get certain people to hammer harder on their keyboards than some random white guy being accused of "PC crime". I don't know, it is almost like there is some other, underlying cause for all the rage...

Not sure, seems as though its kind of polarised now. Soon as people accuse someone of racism, then it's PC gone mad. It's quiet silly really, not sure about the 10yr old and not sure what his intention was but if the same had been for e.g. a royal then most would say he was a racist. I don't think this really damages a racism case, it's just some kid blacked up, we are all getting a little too wound up. If in another case, someone is racially verbally abused then it's a seperate case, I really don't think this 10yr old case is going to affect the overall fight against racism one way another mate.
 
Iseered is calling you all racists but you can't lynch him because that would confirm his theory.

Congrats to Iseered on this perfect act of trolling.
 
I have sympathy for the anti-PC brigade. I see their predicament like the civil rights movement in South Africa and the US in the 50's and 60's, sometimes I think they are like the heroes of the Warsaw ghetto.

The passion they have for their movement is truly awe inspiring. Makes me want to put on the national anthem really really loud and read the Daily Mail from cover to cover.

The highlighted bit is exactly the point I'm making. The two things do indeed need to be kept separate. Making a song and dance out of this totally innocent action by the 10-yr-old shows you what happens when they're not, and DOES damage anti-racism because it gives the bigots a chance to pretend that everyone who criticises them is an idiot.

Not sure, Bigots will always be bigots whether or not someone complains of racism or not. This will not have bearing any anti-racism fight, i didn't even realise this was a story till it was posted here, complete non event. Currently, all the coverage is being devoted to the Boateng walk out from what I can see on main stream media and rightly so.
 
There are other similar stories though, some more widely publicised than others, and every one of them gives the racist knuckledraggers a chance to say this is all just a fuss about nothing. I guess we'll have to agree to disagree on whether that matters.

Perhaps the anger is caused by idiots like you accusing them of racism? Which is basically the essence of political correctness.

Boateng's stance is problematic. It's giving licence to bunches of dickheads to get matches abandoned when they're getting beat.
 
Just curious, are all the actors who have played or currently play Othello now damned if they used a certain make-up or has a compromise been found?

I know they're heroes, and the way they tried to extend their right to breathe was phenomenal (although the real fighters of the Ghetto have been erased from history due to politics). I wish more people know of real history of the Ghetto - and how fucking stupid Mordechai Anielewicz and co were years before the Nazis arrived, and weeks before ...

Perhaps Peter. Seems very unlikely though.
Who are you accusing of being racist? You might as well name names ... Be a man.
Well now you are just putting words into my mouth. I never accused anyone of being racist, I was merely wondering out loud where all the anger comes from. Suppressed racist feelings is just one theory, and Peter has suggested another (highly unlikely) source. I am open to suggestions.

It's been building up for a long time and finally I guess someone has walked off and his white team mates have followed which was always I guess a factor why it hasn't happened before. If UEFA and FIFA have listend and sorted out proper punishments before then he wouldn't have walked off, their idiotic fines have led to this and I'm glad finally someone did walk off.

That's how what you said comes off ...

Speaking for myself only, there are plenty of instances of racism that we need to fight and combat that instances like this (which it seems is clearly not racism) need to not be involved in the mix ... It takes the piss out of the real issues which we as a society need to focus on, and hopefully in our life times (yeah right) eradicate.

I get that... But do you see what I mean?

The ideal is that Boateng tells ref, ref tells stewards, stewards eject twats.

He's said he'll do it again. Next time Milan get a two goal lead expect twenty bellends to start shouting at Boateng.
