No. That would be people who think they are a great deal more intelligent and moral than they actually are.

@AM-fs1je AS a matter of historical fact, and certainly oddity, Owens and witnesses said that Hitler waved at him in greeting and the crowds roared enthusiastically. He also sent him a signed photograph. Owens said that Hitler didn't snub him - but President Roosevelt did because unlike other winners he was never invited to the White House.

@willshaman2128 Is the mere mention of racial characteristics and ethnic dress racist? Why?

@conchronic Of course they are. They are just like the Nazis in imposing a racist doctrine through violence, intimidation, symbolism and the brainwashing of fools.

I think probably the last time there was a serious outcry about political gestures in sport was the row over giving the "European salute" at the 1936 Olympics. Just a thought.

@gabrielleslodowski3150 I think he actually wrote them when he was a journalist; a job he would have been better to stick at.

@stevewilliams7441 Of course. That's what it was called then. The Nazi's didn't like the word Nazi. I think it sounds like something very rude in Polish.

There was a row on that occasion too which shows great similarities. In both instances a great many simple-minded people were persuaded to make a gesture supporting a criminal organisation. The "European salute" for the Nazis. Taking the knee for BLM.

@atomiccritter6492 Trump has never gone away. He or his nominees will govern the US some day soon - as long as they can find away of stopping the Democrat war machine from cheating.

@conchronic But many athletes in1936 were persuaded to raise their arms in salute in support of a racist doctrine - in exactly the same way that modern-day athletes take the knee in support of another one.

@conchronic And isn't it great that things have got so much better since then? And isn't it a shame that BLM are trying to turn the clock back in order to help advance their Marxist agenda?

@conchronic I've read the Communist Manifesto and one or two other bits and pieces and I once wasted part of a perfectly decent holiday in Goa trying to wade through Das Kapital, but, like so many, I had to give up. In fact I don't know anyone who's got all the way through it. What I could decipher seemed the most arrant nonsense. Engels puts the case far more coherently, but Marxism really is like a long grocery list sent to a laundry by mistake. Did you know that Engels in one of his letters claimed that Marx once said to him;" You know Freidrich, I am not really a Marxist." Funny that.

@factstrumpprejudice6740 I was speaking on behalf of Dr King who was, of course, a Christian fundamentalist preacher.

@conchronic If you has read much Marx- or even Engels, Lenin and Trotsky - you would realise that Communism needs both an oppressed proletariat and a tame middle-class intelligentsia if the revolution is to succeed. Unfortunately the proletariat is no longer oppressed, and even when it was it gave Marxism the cold shoulder in most locations. So a substitute oppressed proletariat has to be created. Troops are needed to go on the marches, carry the flags, shout the slogans and throw the bombs. The Marxists have selected racial and sexual minorities for the job; carefully massaging their feelings of rejection and exaggerating their ills to fire their enthusiasm for revolution As for the middle-class intelligentsia, there are always plenty of them about. "Useful idiots" Lenin called you.

@daanvanderrol5627 These poor brainwashed lefties cannot go for long without Hitler and "fascism" being trotted out. If only they realised how much they resemble themselves the wide-eyed innocents of the Hitler youth snarling about "Der Juden."

@conchronic Yes, we've all been oppressed into owning our own houses, running two cars and going abroad for our holidays. There is still slavery in the UK of course but it is pretty much brown on brown. As for red - BLM's leaders have of course taken the usual course of stealing all the donations to provide themselves with luxury lifestyles. How anyone with half a brain can fall for this crap utterly beats me.

@johnbates4004 When used in a newspaper column. Or indeed in any context you like. They are accurate observations and if anyone should take offence, too bad. They are pleasant enough jokes which, even if they did cause offence, that offence could not be attributed to racism in any sense. Some black kids do have big grins and very charming too. And Islam is not a race. Mocking burkas is no more racist than mocking Anglican bishops for wearing funny hats.
1
@abbersj2935 No. The large foggy areas in the minds of brainwashed fools convince them to see things which are not there.

@abbersj2935 I glimpse a glimmer of political acumen through the fog. Keep working on it.

@willshaman2128 The word "piccaninnie" is, I think, West Indian patois and is very much a term of endearment, although rather old-fashioned now. The trouble is you language fascists turn reasonable discourse into a minefield. You are like a bunch of Victorian ladies policing speech with your "dos and don'ts" and your eternal pearl-clutching. Go somewhere else and whisper behind your fluttering fans. Islam is not a race it is a religion, and while mockery of religious apparel might be considered by some to be in poor taste, once again putting a racist slant upon it reveals the racism inherent in you, not in Boris Johnson. They might well be white faces hidden behind the veils, you know. Either converts or Muslims from the Balkans for example. Racism in this country is only an issue when people like you try to make it one.
1
@AuntyEsther You're not explaining it very well. Picaninnie is a term of endearment applied to children in West Indian patois. If racists have appropriated the term then you too are a racist for condoning their interpretation. Islam is a religion not a race and therefore any comments made about its prescribed apparel cannot be racist. Plenty of white women wear burkas; converts and Moslems from Balkan countries for example. It is you and people like you who are keeping racism alive by constantly misreading the behaviour of people more liberal-minded than you are.

@peterspowage5752 Racism is not what you seem to think it is. In fact the ability to gently mock people of different nations or ethnicities than oneself is a sign of a healthy society. It is virtue-signalling lefties who see racism in every remark, or political opportunists who use race as an issue who are responsible for stirring hatred.
1
@peterspowage5752 Racist crimes have increased because the definition has been altered and because our police forces are jumping on the diversity bandwagon. Compared to even just a few decades ago racism in this country is virtually non-existent.

Yes. A war criminal would certainly add a bit of style to the party.

@geraldhewing2076 You don't have to be to know that Campbell was the spin-doctor who manufactured the lies foisted upon the British public which allowed Blair to support and take part in a war which has led to the loss of millions of lives.
1
@geraldhewing2076 I was around at the time and I read the news articles based on Campbell's press releases, cobbled together from articles on the Internet and dodgy gen fed to him by the CIA. He laid the ground. He created public support for a murderous war based on a series of lies. He is no better than Goebbels who, like Campbell, started his career as a writer of pornography.
1
@geraldhewing2076 But Campbell was part of the government machine. The media can influence policy but is politicians and officials who create it. It is obvious that the war on Iraq was engineered by the Americans for political reasons and that its consequences have been dire. Blair was willingly sucked into it and Campbell was effective in selling the idea to Parliament and the public. This makes him complicit. He restructured and edited information which he must have known to be false or suspect. He is a journalist and they do that all the time, but in this instance his efforts were part of a disastrous strategy which has killed millions. With his taste and talent for hyperbole Campbell would certainly have no hesitation in describing anyone else who behaved in this way as a "war criminal."
