Twisted it again pp He said silly kids speaking like they are from some town in the West Indies when clearly they are not. Nothing about black or white. Watch Malcom X asking why white liberals take the head of a black movement. He doesn’t trust them. He questions why it isn’t a black person at the front. It’s basically him saying that metaphorically they still aren’t allowed to be in control of themselves so still being slaves.

As a separate point, I believe a lot of the negative stigma around modern street culture (notice this is a wider point, and not specifically about language!!!) is due to a lack of understanding of it. Nothing to do with acceptance, or like, of said culture - I believe most people just don’t know much about it. I witness this first hand with my own family, friends and colleagues. I’d also be confident you know little about modern street culture, and your own opinions are in some part shaped by ignorance, as are mine I’m sure. You seem to have your back up over my use of the word ignorant, when the reality is it describes a lack of knowledge or exposure to something, which is somewhat inevitable in this case if you’re not a young person living in particular parts of the country. It’s not in any way insulting.

You have. That says more about you than anybody, and I mean anybody, on this thread. Have you been to Selhurst and bought anything recently? We know the answer to that.
