Hate speech laws are applied (by judicial ruling) without context and at the discretion of whoever wants to bring the prosecution.......all these things are OK as long as it’s something you don’t mind but wait until it’s something you do mind. I had the exact same conversation with people at the time of the hunting ban, people who said “well I don’t really care about a load of toffs hunting foxes” and I said same as I have just said to you “Wait until they come after something you do really care about” We have given them an inch and they have taken much more than a mile. To a point I see your point. And you’d be surprised (as you think I’m a liberal lefty it appears) that I fully agree - you got to be able to explore this stuff, you got to be able to say the things no one wants to hear....... but I guess it’s the context you say it and how and why? You don’t want to accept someone is a of sexual unicorn? You don’t have to I don’t think? And you’re even allowed to sit down in the privacy of your own home etc and call them a fruit loop, but you can’t say it to them in a certain manner? And cause offence? Its a very thin line I guess. To be fair as I’ve said plenty of times before - I dislike most folk on most sides of the divide equally, I just want to be left well alone But you’re right that, as a wiseman said, if you stand for nothing, you’ll fall for anything. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Decent post mate and as it happens I think we have managed a decent conversation I don’t consider you a “lefty”, I consider you a bloke willing to debate this stuff and we need more of them 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
green lurchers 16,720 Posted October 12, 2020 Report Share Posted October 12, 2020 When ya kids or grandkids are brainwashed from school to university by radical pc Marxists teachers professors while u adopt the dosnt affect me attitude it’s too late it will affect you as can be seen by the peaceful protesting rioting educated anarchists They believe they are doing the right thing but are they really ? I’m not convinced tearing down the place is the right way to go if we all adopted there approach to get wat we want we. All fkd but as debating with an anti is futile so is debating with a Marxist. I mean a democrat they are right you are wrong. 4 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Genuine question - how does it all really effect you day to day, outside of getting annoyed by stuff on the internet / tv / some bloke down the pub said. The trans pigmy thing doesn't bother me, or most people, in fact most people to the 'right' couldn't give a shit. I'm a libertarian. I believe the trans pigmy should be able to bum his boyfriend while smoking a joint and planning his badger digging. The political left believes that pigmy should be made to feel like a victim of the right, that he, Muslims, gays, blacks and every other f*ck up are victims of the establishment....that they are special people who need protection of the left. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

WILF 47,344 Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 Ahh, we all know the score......it’s why it’s hardly worth talking with some people save a few willing to actually have a sensible conversation. The normal measure of how sensible you are being in a debate is how soon the word “nazi” gets thrown at you or into the mix ! Lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Accip74 7,112 Posted October 13, 2020 Report Share Posted October 13, 2020 (edited) Any of you lads think Trump should of reigned it in a tad? For the sake of his voters? Probably a silly question I don’t mean change, obviously he is what he is & that’s what you like, but a smarter game, less ego & a bit less nonsensical bollocks when he speaks. He should on paper easily walk this election, the opposition is terrible & looks like they’ve barely tried, but it looks very close either way & I think that’s a lot to do with his mouth.
