    'Coloured' not PC anymore

    Amber Rudd apologises over 'coloured woman' comment - BBC News

    So apparently the term 'coloured' when used to refer a to non-white person is now considered racist...

    Surely the world's gone mad?

      The whole thing is descending into farce now. Woke people trying to outwoke each other by declaring how unwoke their political opponents are thinking they can use wokeness to get their way.

      Luckily outside the BBC/MSM/Hollywood and Silicon Valley most regular folks don't actually GAS about any of this.

      The latest Captain Marvel/Alita thing is quite amusing - but I'm trying to detox and wean myself off all this stuff. Just broke a good few weeks long stint

      Need to find a good /nofap equivalent for this, maybe /nosjwwokedrama or something...

        Was it ever politically correct? Asking for a South African friend.

          Oh KUATB. It was deemed racist when Benedict Cumberbatch used it in 2015.

          The whole colour/race thing is stupid anyway. There's only one race of humans. Homo Sapiens. Amber Rudd, however, is definitely colourless.
          Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

            Can you say 'non-white' or is that offensive to someone somewhere?

                  The thin air up there has clearly damaged your brain.
