What a decent fella Harry is. Speaks plain, common sense on Malky Mackey

If by education you mean being told by some left wing wally what words are now no longer acceptable to other similiar left wing wally's i think i'll stay as i am thanks. So now the words "Turk" and "Kurd" are off limits? I think what we need is some kind of left wing dictionary that can run alongside the Oxford dictionary and maybe everyone should wear some kind of badge to denote their Turkish/Kurdish/Pakistani/whatever lineage so mistakes arent made and god forbid someone actually gets offended by a word.

Jeeeeeezzz... Start a thread about religion and race and everyone pipes up.

You're not wrong ...

Calling the Chinese takeaway a "Chinky" is used by everyone i know and never in my head or otherwise is it used in racist connotations.
As someone said earlier its all about context.

The context is the real world. Slavery, skinhead gangs, racist policing, race riots, workplace discrimination, kids bullied at school, europeans ruling the world for centuries etc etc.

And by making words taboo such as "p***", "c*****" (i won't type it as it seems to cause offence to some) and "n*****" etc you are giving the racists a weapon and a way to insult a whole nation or race.

"Europeans ruling the world for centuries" ? Havent heard that one before tbh. So the evil Europeans going round the world in centuries past creating empires and conquering distant lands has upset you? Is this something that you think a lot about and makes you angry? Not a lot to be done about it now though is there? or do you belong to some political/cultural group that is demanding reperations? Not having a pop my friend just first i have heard of that one.

Historical context is irrelevant then, because you're not aware of it?

Work environment is not just between mates. If it was no-one would know anything about it. That's the issue here really.
