ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC"

[Peter g]

Liverpool losing would Jew believe it !!

 

[Brennan]

Brennan your a young lad brought up in a bed wetting society. If your someone old enough to have grown up in a time and society where you witnessed REAL racism you could see the woods from the trees. The only racism you have seen mate is a tom and Jerry segment on cartoon network.

Superb opening gambit, i must say.

I'm not sure how old somebody has to be to see REAL racism. If you could tell me with the minimum age somebody needs to be to have experienced REAL racism i'd be grateful.

Racism is serious and should be treated as such. Sadly today's society people are too quick to play the race card and the media hounding can tarnish someone's name.

Your name isn't tarnished for making racist comments if you don't make racist comments. It's not particularly difficult.

If your offended by a joke picture referencing numerous nationalties your a bed wetter in my eyes.

Never said i was offended by it, simply that it was racist.

Also ballotelli is black and is part Jewish, so it's racist he is joking about himself but not when every black rapper on the planet makes millions from using the N word in their lyrics?

He's not 'part Jewish'. His ancestors were Ghanaian.

Like I said. Minefield, over reaction, bed wetting.

You seem to have a rather strange obsession with bed wetting.

It also mentioned black people jump high, so is that racist?

It mentioned Italians, Mexicans, English? And someone else, should all those be offended?

Or how about grown adults get a back bone, be educated with our university educations to separate a light hearted joke from any malice, and move on, without running around shouting "WACISM, WACISM!!" like some 11 year old school girl after hearing a class mate say a naughty word.

I haven't got one, can I be excluded?

It isn't your fault mate, but sadly you have been brought up in an age of no common sense. Everyone with 2 brain cells to rub together saw that image and realised it was meant as a light hearted joke, mentions numerous nationalties same as your "an englishman, an irishman a scotsman" jokes but people of today can't get past that they have to make a big deal out of it regardless of intent or connotation etc.

If you grew up at a time where sadly racism was common place and often MALICIOUS in nature, when you see light hearted harmless things like that picture, you look at things differently you see it for how it is I suppose.

You're talking out of your arse. I've seen plenty of 'malicious' racism. I've seen a Pakistani person beaten up for being a 'muslim', i've seen black people racially abused in the street. I've seen Moroccans in Spain get MALICIOUS abuse simply for being Moroccan.

I could go on. By your logic you haven't seen 'proper racism' either because you weren't over in the South of the US when black people were slaves. It's utterly stupid.

You're excusing racism. Get a grip.

The "Liverpool" thread seems to have become the "Racism" thread lads. Will be ok with it, as its quiet, but keep it civil please.

I think I'm right in saying that I haven't posted anything critical of another poster. I hope not as I'd be ashamed to pen anything as offensively patronising and downright stupid as your various bar room musings.

No, you haven't cornered the market in common sense; intelligent interpretation or not wetting a bed. You've simply adopted the easy, 'university of life' BS beloved of those of a certain age and political viewpoint.

I'm likely older than you and vividly recall the senseless racism prevalent in Liverpool, London and many other places. If some over privileged, dense f***wit tweets garbage that runs the chance of titillating the horrors who still infest the darker corners of British society, he deserves to be called on it and criticised for the eejit he most certainly is.

If you've seen said incidents and have still gotten massively offended by that image then theirs something wrong mate.

We won't agree so ill leave it at that. But your telling me you've never laughed at a joke that could be considered one of the following:

Racist
Sexist
Ageist
About appearance
About weight
About sexuality

Etc.

All of those are offensive by today's standards REGARDLESS of intent and most likely you have laughed at a joke about one of those at some point in your life, same as all of us. Now the issue is why should you be called a bigot/racist etc etc. For that? That's the point of today you have to hope and pray a bed wetter doesn't over hear you laughing at a joke about a scotsman and dobs you in as a neo nazi.

Also the media clung onto the Jewish element of the joke, funny how they ignored the black and other nationalties. Could that be because of whelan/Mackay race storm so it is the new flavour of the month to be offended about. The media aint daft.

 

[scratchnsurf]

How's it racist it was a joke image of Mario referencing a number of nationalties/races hardly a link to a neo nazi website full of Jewish hatred.

I guarantee the people offended are white British and not Jewish. Their is a section of this society that actually gets off being offended for other people. People support UKIP as they are sick of having crap like this shoved down our throats, I'm not gonna pretend I'm offended by something that I'm not and something that clearly was meant in humour not malice.

People need to grow some balls it's a right society of bed wetters in this country.

On behalf of all of those suffering from nocturnal enuresis, I'd like to complain in the strongest possible terms about the horrendous victimisation and associative negative connotations applied to our condition by these posts.

Moderation team, I demand action.







I'll check in later when I'm changing the sheets at about 2:30 a.m.

Who's calling Balotelli a racist ?

To be honest you seem to be making a bigger deal out of this than anybody else. It was a racist picture. Nobody on here is offended, and nobody has called Balotelli a racist in a serious manner from what i've seen. They've simply stated a fact, which is that it was racist.

Doesn't make you a bed wetter for calling a spade a spade.

 

[EverBlue86]

YAWN.

WACIST!

Yawn grow a back bone no malice was intended. My manc mate ribs me over being a scouser, do I cry and shake and hold a candlelight vigil whilst writing to the guardian to run a story? No i take it as it is mate, a light hearted attempt at humour and leave it at that.

If a random manc on the street aggressively attacks me with scouse jibes then it's a different story. That's where common sense comes in I suppose sadly today's society doesn't have any...
