oh, yes, of course its the worst form of bigotry!
Its far worse, for example, than dressing up in white cloaks, lynching black people and hanging them from trees. Far far worse. The very worst form of bigotry, in fact. |

I think he means in recent times not the 30s ![]() |

A quick poll;
Which do you think is 'by far the worst form of bigotry'? a) Will Self and Peter Hitchens in an intellectual spat on Question Time OR b) The Holocaust |
|
By:
It's worse because its hidden,its worse because they feel so superior,its worse because they have introduced laws to stop certain views.
The Holocaust was genocide pure and simple nothing to go with bigotry. |

Bigotry is the state of mind of a bigot: someone who, as a result of their prejudices, treats other people with hatred, contempt, and intolerance on the basis of a person's ethnicity, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, disability, socioeconomic status, or other characteristics.

Everyone knows which was worse but the point is the holocaust ended 70 years ago. Why not go the full hog and mention how bigots persecuted jesus

I would say bigotry was fairly central to the Holocaust.

While not purporting to adjudicate on the debate that has flared up here -I would have to say that I agree with the thrust of wmfb's initial post.
Hypocrisy can be found all along the ideological spectrum but I have always found the hypocrisy that emanates from 'the left' particularly odious and that would be for the reasons enunciated by the OP. |

So that should just about cover every Muslim then ozy? |
|
By:
A lot of them anyway SG,believe the op has sufficient life experience to have reason to make his claims,not sure you do Ozy and a spell in say Newham might well be an eye opener on your detached view of reality.

By:
I know Newham well Pa, and certainly better than the Op who got spooked on the Tube last time he was in London.

Ozy just might be able to enlighten us on why WHITE PEOPLE don't FEEL SAFE IN HARLEM ..Would that that be RACISM OZY ?....
|
|
By:
Not necesarily, wonky, assuming the same people could feel safe in an upmarket black area with less crime.
That would imply that their fear in Harlem was down to the high crime rate and poverty of the borrough. |
|
By:
Well Silvergreasers post is spot on( or is that you Ozy?) Very easy to be a bleeding heart until it affects you directly,no doubt your tune would change dramatically. Take your moral high ground if you want and shout down anyone that disagrees with one of your labels, but of course in your own cocooned world nobody should have the temerity to.

You should try taking a little walk down that way the next time your BUSINESS TAKES YOU THAT WAY ....
....Be sure to let them know that WHITE BOY is a liberal lefty ...Don't think that will save your White arse though.....![]() |

By:
Can anyone please point to a single peice of evidence that suggest to you that I am a 'lefty'?
Thanks, I am most puzzled this label. |
|
By:
I see Borneo's opening post has AGAIN been removed. And who knows how many more from this thread alone.
That might account for peoples apparent confusion on this thread. Betfair making it clear that this is not a a suitable platform for his paraoid ramblings and extremism. Not in Betfair's name! |
|
By:
Of course it just tells you how the Liberal left have put the fear of God into everyone who opposes their , We are right no matter what ...Sadly it again shows how the so called freedom fighters have taken away peoples right to contest their opinions ..The once great freedom of speech , which people fought for , has now been high jacked by the LEFT and buried never again to see the light of day....
|
|
By:
oh, so Betfair are 'LEFT' now as well are they?
|
|
By:
wonky, I would love to hear your definition of the term 'left' and why you think this label applies to my goodself and or Betfair?
|
|
By:
your readiness to uphold all things liberal , Your belief that everything about the WHITE MAN is wrong , A little example of your need to make a point of trying to make WHITE PEOPLE FEEL GUILTY... Its far worse, for example, than dressing up in white cloaks, lynching black people and hanging them from trees.....The sooner you realise that was many years ago , and i doubt anyone on this forum participated in such practices ....Its time to come into the real world son....

removing the OP makes a bags of a thread, although the second post by DJQ was along the same lines anyway. Nobody could take offence at it, but it seems the irish forum mods are very touchy these days.
Oops, I ll be next now! |

By:
Why in gods name (am i allowed say that by the liberal left) was wildmans post deleted. No insulting remarks were made in it and even if you disagreed with it, you couldnt take offence at it.
When you see some of the filth left up on the football forum, you have to chuckle at the mods ![]() |
