hugopal In what way is she “transphobic”?

Apparently, in the Harry Potter books (I didn’t read them myself because I’m not a knob head) most of the Trannys got turned into frogs or killed very early on. Zero character development. Also, there were footnotes for which characters menstruated and which didn’t, there was even a table in the appendix to that effect.

Most of this was glossed over in the films.

      Must admit all the uproar about blackface in entertainment from the 20s onwards etc seem a bit misdirected - you’re really going to cancel Gone With The Wind? lol.

      Did they go after all the Othello movies from back in the day as well?

      Emotive stuff rom Michael Holding, especially just before the 5 minute mark.

      4 real. Not some bandwagon jumper

        Holding is class, what a great bloke.

        Can someone explain this please:

        "Arsenal Fan TV has taken one of its pundits off the channel - after he made a racist comment about Tottenham striker Son Heung-min.

        Claude Callegari called the Spurs player “DVD” towards the end of the Premier League defeat to their rivals on Sunday."

          Hursty it’s a racist reference to Chinese people selling DVDs in pubs and markets. Son gets targeted with it by a few scum bags.

          Fuck that clown from AFTV.

            Sounds like Claude would fit in perfectly here.

            Kells77 That’s what I was trying to work out? It just seems a little stretched for racism for me, but I must be missing all of the picture as it can’t just be because Chinese people sell DVDs on markets in London can it?

                Hursty Yeah that seems quite the stretch to insult someone.

                  Anyone buying a DVD, in a market, in London, in July 2020, mid coronavirus, not what the nationality of the vendor, needs their head examined.
