Are you sure you don't want to make another 50 whining posts about black people like you do every other day (while telling black people that they should ignore absolutely everything that annoys them).

I generally only see it when people post links on here fishing for controversial opinions. The Mail have been doing it for decades. Now algorithms on your social media will search for posts that will deliberately antagonise you, in order to keep you reading for longer. No one watches TV anymore.

There was a story posted on here the other day about a trans bicycle repair shop from an obscure magazine. If people started realising how few and far between events like that are, then maybe they would feel less threatend

Try cutting out the people who are pushing the stories to get a rise out of you, then talk to the people around you. The majority of people are decent. 1% of crime makes 99% of the news.

Well we sort of agree. The media are obsessed with certain subjects that bear no relation to the real world.

Most people just want to get on with their lives, looking after their own. Inevitably, one person's agenda will bring them into conflict with another from time to time. That is life.

I speak as someone who wishes to protect his own interests. I'm not interested in baring ill will toward anyone else unless they give me cause.

I have no issue with people talking about race. Your perpetual view is that black people should 'ignore' even the worst racism, as not to make is worse.. then you display a visceral anger whenever said racism is not ignored. That is your distilled contribution and the centre of your belief. To anger yourself at those on the receiving end of racism and give a free pass to those engaging in racism. This thread, any thread, that is your sole point. You fail to adopt this apparently 'dignified silence' you expect from others, so then why should they? So if you want to talk about who has a brain or not, you might want to display 1% of the level of nuance and thought that people like John Barnes do.

Is it? I never knew that.

I thought my opinion was that drawing attention to a tiny problem on a daily basis will only make it worse.
Even to the extent where we make a big deal out of Hungarians being a bit racist. What a shock!

I predicted, without the need for too much foresight, that all this would make it worse, and it has. Shock again!

Thanks for telling me what I think for the tenth time today though.

Then you might be due an ounce of introspection.

Oh, like you do you mean?

You are the problem you apparently seek to highlight. More race obsessed than any black person I've ever known most certainly.

Yes, it's almost if is people not exposed to friends and family of other races are more likely to crassly belittle them and their challenges. Ring any bells?
