He's kind of right, in some regards, if you define political correctness on its use as a means to attack the words people use, rather than what they are saying Indeed. In that sense it is the most appalling excuse not to listen to people although not agreeing with someone seems enough to restrict their freedom of speech these days. It's pretty hard to maintain interest in a conversation where someone has dropped in a racial epithet, but sometimes it's that casual as to be harmless (to me) and irrelevant to the topic in hand. I'm not going to ignore someone I suspect to be racist if they're providing valuable insight in the economy or something. The trend is that were I part of some student group and disagreed on his views on the economy, I would then go on and out him as a racist.

Nah its just a bollocks thread. You should get a hobby rather than complain about ultimately inconsequential issues. What is your background out of interest? I've given my background in lots of threads that you've participated in and yet here you are asking me to provide it. It shows how you approach learning - you want it all done for you. I know your background from the information you've provided and you are a young economics student that has a lot to learn about life. Instead of being aggressive like a young rutting stag taking on the leader of the herd and getting a slap, you would be advised to learn a little humility and respect before trying it on with all and sundry. For a start the world doesn't revolve around economics... that is just one factor of what makes the world go around. And for the record.... I didn't complain, I posted it for amusement value as much as educational and if you thought it was a bollocks thread why participate in it? You don't think things through... an accusation you levelled at another poster recently... that is google irony my young apprentice. Edited by Hoof Hearted (19 May 2016 10.50am)

Edited by Hoof Hearted (19 May 2016 10.50am) Apologies, I forgot, was it you or Hlorf the Granger or whatever his tag is that worked in the city in some capacity after leaving school at A levels? Honestly couldn't remember. Similar tags and similar points often I didn't really distinguish between you. Have you found out what an economics degree involves these days or is it still as worthwhile as one in textiles? Will I probably get a 2.2 and end up working as a burger flipper upon graduating as well? Or have you done some reading?

Don't set your sights too high. And no I didn't, nor do I ever wish to, work in the City.

That's the only seven words you will need.

Just got back from the library, anyone else want to have a dig. I'm all ears over the nonsense you lot come up with sometimes.

You're not going to amount to much in life if your observation skills and memory are anything to go by as demonstrated on here. You cannot remember that I apologised for winding up you and other economics degree students/graduates purely as retaliation for your assertion that old white men's views were irrelevant to the Brexit debate? You keep trying to undermine myself and others by suggesting literature is alien to our cognisance? Notice my choice of words... hardly the incoherent ramblings of a Beano reader? Try debating with proven facts/figures and rein back on the sarcasm driven by an inflated ego.
