I don't know if that's a reliable paper or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J_Stewart Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 Tommy Robinson isn’t even showing up to this riot on Saturday.The video he made weaseling out of it, coked up to the eyeballs, is hilarious: Crying shame, was looking forward to watching the videos of the bigoted wee shitebag being bodied all over the city. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what you're talking about. I have changed my name since I have been on this site, though. I'm a Platinum Member, so that is a privilege I enjoy. Are you in favour of the cultural revolution, comrade?! You can only be in favour of equality and diversity or against it. There is no in between.

Better if it had said, "Were it not for Scotland's support the Confederacy wouldn't even have lasted for five years".

You can think for yourself now that you've abandoned God! Bit radical a step just because a few people are marching though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgun Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 1 hour ago, tamthebam said: Wullie actually had a wee black pal in the early days, albeit drawn in the racist style of the day: The only black guy I remember in comics as a kid was Ball Boy's pal Benji. Probably drawn quite iffily iirc but he was the second best player after Ball Boy and so a dude Lord Snooty had a black pal. I don't recall if the pal had a name and I 'm pretty sure she never spoke. A cursory Google Image search suggests this character was dropped at some point. (I tried to see if I could fit a William Rees-Mogg joke in here but obviously, he's never had a black pal.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 I had a quick shufty at the Topple the Racists website and they have the Kitchener memorial in Orkney on their map. The justification is because Herbert Horatio fought against the Boers. I think someone has taken the piss, the Boers weren't known for their tolerance towards the natives.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inventing concentration camps might have had something to do with it. Black rations were much lower than Boer. They didn't even bother counting the deaths of blacks, 107,000 went in, nobody knows how many came out. The Boer figures are better documented, 25% died, 28,000.

The_Kincardine Posted June 12, 2020 Share Posted June 12, 2020 On 11/06/2020 at 13:46, AsimButtHitsASix said: But, you're right, at no point in the history of the United Kingdom have landowners forced the displacement of people from their ancestral homes in Scotland nor have the three native languages of Scotland been made extinct (Norn), desecrated (Gaelic) or shunned (Scots) in favour of a language forced upon the nation for three hundred years by edict. I didn't compare these to greater injustices faced by others, I explicitly said the opposite, but to pretend that Scotland has not been on the end of discrimination from a colonial power, however slight, is a nonsense. Our own colonial power does not deny this. Scotland has never been subject to a colonial power in modern history. The role of post-Reformation Scotland is that of colonisers, slavers and empire-builders par excellence. The decline in the use of both Gaelic and Scots is due, in the former, to the indolence of the Gaels and, in the latter, to the utility of English as the language of the Scots-dominated Empire. There is no period in the history of modern Scotland that we were ever subject to societal racism. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
