This is how the western world is now, and we still have the nerve to criticise China.

Black people have become sacral objects of worship for most White people, especially in English speaking countries. You are not allowed to criticise them or to make fun of them.

@Mugin16 The fact that you find my comment "funny" sums up very well how much you respect women.

@Miram If someone pointed out that all runners in the 100 metres race were black, or all highest scorers at basketball are black, I would not be offended or see any hint of racism, and I do not know anyone who would.

I just think that different races have different skills, and as a whole, some can be better at certain activities than others. If that thought is racist, frankly I do not care.

@Cierzo 🥱 Except that this wasn't about praising an ethnic group. This was about generalizing negative statement against ALL of them and dissing equality.
Did you see all that racist talk about them? You’re ok with that?

@Cierzo It's you not understanding that he doesn't get to tell ALL feminists to kill themselves while mentioning suicide rates as if you cared about the issue.

So do you agree with his statements? Both saying that feminists should kill themselves to fight for equality, and the tweets relating skin color to soccer performance+ dissing equality as a value.
Cierzo · M
@Miram I think it is obvious that his point is that there is not enough talk about how a big social issue suicide is since most of the suicidals are men.

Of course I do not think feminists should kill themselves, and neither does he.

[b]If feminists truly wanted equality they'd kill themselves[/b]

No, he didn't say there should be more talk about men's suicide rate, he said feminists should kill themselves if they wanted equality.

Not only it is very disgusting to encourage suicide, defend it, and twist that statement to defend it.. but the fact that anyone'd assume feminists are all WOMEN and there are no feminist men who are themselves exposed to the same rate..That my dude is very stupid.

You can talk about suicide rates without suggesting that feminists should kill themselves, dehumanizing them and then denying that the statement was made.

so the colour of their skin determines their football skill??? you're a teacher aren't you??
Cierzo · M
@SW-User I am teacher and therefore I know the importance of facts. And what happened on Sunday is a fact. Also, how could I be a teacher and agree with censorship?

I am not, nor is Mr.Lawrence, saying that blacks are always bad footballers. But anyway, if someone did, it would just be an opinion. A verystupid opinion indeed, Pele, Romario, Drogba and many others prove it is wrong. Is it a reason to cancel someone?

You can't claim to support freedom of private businesses to hire and serve whoever they wish..

And at the same time whine because they kicked out a racist, suicide encouraging idiotic person..From working in their business..

Maybe you should learn what irony truly means.
Cierzo · M
@Miram Probably you know the story of the American bakery who got in serious trouble because they refused to make a cake for a serious wedding. They did not have the freedom those who hired Lawrence have now to cancel him.

Beware of supporting double standards. One day you may be on the wrong side and suffer them.
Miram · 31-35, F
@Cierzo

I know that story because you were endlessly whining about it. Non-stop.

And now you're whining because these businesses refuse to hire this racist guy.

That's the double standard, that's the hypocrisy, that's the irony.
