    But then when I quote the full speech, not just phrases from it, you don't like it, instead you go for out of context quoting.

    So, rather than resorting to insults, tell us all why you are upset by Anthony Joshua to the point that you needed to reply to my post?
    This is why I have continually asked you not to reply to my posts.

    Why are people upset a black guy is standing for black causes? I doubt his sponsors mind the publicity at all.
    I think it's worth doing a thought experiment, applying the sentiment of the speech as if it was a white orator - would it be OK for someone who's white to suggest supporting white businesses (exclusively) purely based on "whiteness"?

    I've not really looked into this particular statement by Joshua, as it's all boring now, but I'm not sure it is increasing cohesion.

    I could be totally wrong as I can't even be arsed following this garbage topic.

    racism/ˈreɪsɪz(ə)m/
    Learn to pronounce




    noun
    [COLOR=#878787 !important][/COLOR]


    • prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against a person or people on the basis of their membership of a particular racial or ethnic group, typically one that is a minority or marginalized.
      [COLOR=#878787 !important]"a programme to combat racism"[/COLOR]







    So if someone suggests that people decide which businesses you use based on the business owners skin colour could that be considered racist?

    If Tyson Fury suggested people should only buy off gypsies or white people would that be considered racist?

    You can't fight racism with racism. You only think you can if you are stupid.

    The black guy is being racist and no one is calling him on it.

    Under Armour could print "No Pope of Rome, 1690" over their whole range and I would still wear it.

    How about:

    "I’m down to riot 100 per cent" - could be taken on its own and will no doubt be taken out of context.

    It wasn't a great speech. It could have been a lot better. He's done himself few favours.

    The OP edited his first post - he was the one who used the term "horrible"
