Now, you must try to understand this simple concept, recognising that the abolition of slavery and the active suppression of it by the British empire was good isn't to say that I approve of everything that the British empire ever did. That kind of black and white thinking would lead me to say that you think because the British empire was bad, and because the British empire got rid of slavery, that getting rid of slavery was itself bad, and ergo you think that slavery should not have been ended. That would be idiotic, er cretinous, no no can't say that either, silly? £#%&! it I give up. |

This country is made up of practically every race of people on the planet, yet you only selected white people, a single race group, as those for whom slavery isn't an issue. That is, by definition, a racist statement. |

I'm not sure anyone really knows what true racism is anymore; it was weaponised by the left a long time ago and never reality checked by general society at any stage. It's a terrible disservice to people who actually are discriminated against because the injustices they suffer have been drowned out by this new, incessantly loud redefined version whose justification appears to be anyone, anywhere who's offended by anything. What madness is this that evidence and logic are now subordinate to the idea that 'if i say it is then it is'.
People are getting tired of it. Good people who say and do nothing discriminatory are tired of being lathered with this label yet are defenseless against the accusation that they must be thinking it either conciously or subconciously because, let's face it, their granddad must have been racist and must have had a hand in their upbringing; case closed. People are getting tired of it, and when they're under constant bombardment by the left, where do they turn? That's right, politicians like Trump. |

But this particular context, implying Lukaku apparently takes the pitch with a spare towel & a fedora on at all times, means it's a very specific "thing we don't approve of" - which isn't that difficult to agree with is it? If people were happy to take all things on their own merit & not generalise based on looks, that's pretty straight-forward. |

We need to draw a line between asking people to conduct themselves with decency (which is reasonable) and acting like automotons (which is not). |
