A question to Brexiters ...

[Whorty]

Do you find when you are called gammon it's a racial slur against you as proposed in this Beeb article? Or when you look in the mirror do you think, mmmmm, fancy some egg and chips with that, off to Wetherspoons later once I've cashed my giro

Why your social media is covered in gammon - BBC News

[sasguru]

Shows how "up" I am with the social media scene.
I though "gammon" was simply like "mince", indicating someone thick and dense.
I had no idea it was meant to be a racial slur.

On balance I prefer "mince" anyway as in "thick as mince".

Fookin millennial missing completely the point of why stereotyping is a problem.

BTW...


How many gammon does it take to change a lightbulb?

Millions. First to successfully campaign to leave the EU, and then to wait in the dark for the proper inefficient incandescent light bulbs to make a comeback.

oh bog off.

Stereotyping is what humans do. It isn't a problem, as long as you know it's a stereotype.

We all categorise people, it just gets called stereotyping when some pratt gets offended and needs a quick draught of man-the-f**k-up.

I meet a new PM and stereotype him/her as a waste of skin and organs until they prove otherwise.

[original PM]

So it's okay to stereotype some people but not others?

So it's okay to treat one group of people differently than others because you feel it's OK?

That is the problem with that fook wits statement.

We all have our crosses to bear.
I have to put up with a complete idiot like you on here, for example.
I despise the stupid classes of which you are a prime exemplar.
Political correctness gone mad, I tell you, when you can't call a complete imbecile a cretin to his to his face.
Political correctness gone mad, I tell you.
