Mad_Cyril Did you mean ‘coming out’ Ed/Edith?

Just wanted to prove how un sexist I am MC!

The most modern of men!

-si- Lol, I must have been ill or not listening at those Scout meets, as all I remember was doing cool stuff and playing with mates.

Might free up some spaces at the local Beavers for my lad, as the waiting lists are huge! Every cloud…

Hursty Do the Germans let the Nazi era shame them and hold them back? No they don’t, they accept and acknowledge it and move on. They are now world beaters in many areas of modern human life, whether that’s sport, industry or techno 😎

You’re arguing that we should leave things as they are and then use the Germans as an example of a country and acknowledged it and moved on. Well, the German’s have banned Nazi Symbols, so they can’t be taken down - so they aren’t really comparable in the slightest

    -si- Depends who ‘they’ is. Different laws in different countries currently. In the UK, for example, it’s legal if you have two job candidates of the same capability to give the job to a candidate from a protected group (e.g. an ethnic minority group) purely on the basis of their group status. In South Africa, it includes the use of pre-determined quotas in companies, sports teams or educational institutions.

    For the record, I’m in favour of affirmative action, but think it’s poorly implemented in many societies. And whilst a vast majority of my circle of friends is white, those that are not aren’t looking for dramatic apologies and shoe kissing. They just want to be given a fair fucking chance.

    Along_the_Wire What I was saying is that post Nazi generations have not let anyone shame them for what their predecessors did, they have got on with being a productive and prosperous country.

      mono-stereo BLM UK state that “We’re guided by a commitment to dismantle imperialism, capitalism, white-supremacy, patriarchy and the state structures”.

      While we’re considering questionable parts of history which should not be repeated, Marxism is certainly one of them.

        Not sure the UK is an imperialist, white supremacist place in 2020? And is a patriarchal society the end of the world and to who’s detriment?

          -si- And is a patriarchal society the end of the world

          It’s not the end of the world, no. But it’s also not ideal is it?

          Does it affect anyone negatively, mono?

          Does a patriarchal society effect anyone negatively?

          Yes mate, it does.

          And it’s changing…

          Do we kill, burn shit and topple statues of men until it’s not the case?

          In 2020 UK, where are the oppressed and subordinate women? Tell you what there are fucking none of them in northern Ireland, they’d knock your cunt in for telling them what to do or that they weren’t getting something.

          How about we mutilate your genitals first? How much of a problem would that be for you?
