Bernardo Silva tweet controversy

[Brightwell Bros.]

So, by definition, the singing of this particular song, makes the singers of it racist?

Wow.

You're right then, there are some racist twats on here.

That's literally not what I said.

That's just an occupational hazard.

Ha good one
When they get bits of them blow off the others say at least you wil be able to get into the olympic team and get disabilty living allowance etc,it's forces humour and nurses humour is the same,if anyone heard that they would get all airiated and cry discrimination to disabled people

Quite frankly i despair at the PC bollocks these days,there are real cases that get lost in the noise of people having meltdowns over fuck all,the meaning of words change,the youngsters not long ago used the word gay to denote something happy,in the same way they use the word sic as something good,i once called a scooter on here gay,oh my word the fuss,i would give other examples but i had better not

Do you know the history of that mascot? Of minstrel shows? Of black caricatures?

I'm sure you do

 

[Brightwell Bros.]

Not saying people's words aren't important, but impact on the world. You are seriously over the top there.

How so? You don't think language and media representation influences the world and our understanding of the world? Virtually all research claims that it does.

 

[SWP's back]

You don't think using the word "chinky" as a punchline isn't racist?

Punchline to what sorry? I’ve caught this half way through.

What joke uses that punchline?

I don't think that Bernardo or Mendy would have any idea about the history of Conquitos advertising, and you can only judge him on intent. An intent that wasn't racist

That's literally not what I said.

"Some right racist twats here"

That's literally what you said my friend..

 

[Machiavelli]

what do white people get called in the forces just out of interest?

Sir! ;)

In general maybe, but 1 person and 1 tweet. You sure ? I think the biggest impact on the world is governments and their words and actions.
They are the people that need holding back, at times.

I just hope Mendy isn't too hurt.

He's missed enough games already.
