Bullshit. He's just calling you out for the intolerant twat that you are.


And another one comes along to offer support.
No attempt to debate, - just the strawman/ad hominem.
Pathetic.



I’ll “debate” with you Roy, now we finished skirting around what it is you’re actually unhappy about, let’s start with an easy one, how many people do you think are affected by the blatant attempt to woo the public into entering relationships with people with different colored skin or from another culture therefore diluting the master race by stealth?

What sort of percentage do you think have been infected?

Go..


What is it that you think we've finished 'skirting around' exactly?
Anyone (such as Tick) that uses 'gammon' as a racial pejorative is as much a racist as those who use the word nigger and similar pejoratively.

Which makes it all the more baffling why the overriding theme of what you post in this forum is one of bigotry and intolerance.
You wouldn't have the balls to say half of what you spout on here to people in the street.


The irony.

Here's one you may like Roy, assuming red hair is OK :D



I have absolutely no idea what that clip is meant to show/prove zambo.
Anyway, for what it's worth, - my little experiment the other night, when I watched the ads between 5&6 pm (I actually didn't switch on til 10past) resulted in:
25 ads shown; 10 ads showing groups/couples; 9 ads showing mixed ethnicities.
Not sure why you needed that, as I said at the outset, - it was instantly provable, but there you go.

Except that I'm not the one who spends my days trawling the internet for articles/videos that "prove" there some agenda to promote mixed-race relationships, or that Muslims are taking over the UK etc

You and m4rk are like a stuck record, posting the same shite day in, day out.

It was a light hearted dig, and your apparent obsession with who appears in tv ads. I wondered if you thought it OK for a black woman to turn into a white one. We could pretend maybe, that black or brown people don't actually exist at all.

Now that I can agree with, as long as we are talking about fanny. :P

You being bothered by about the amount of “non white” people in adverts, or have I somehow misread what you’re trying to put across?

I would guess we both could agree on many things....disagree on many others.

Tell me....do you believe the world is getting very strange of late....and at a faster rate?



I've got more kids than both of you put together , and some of them are probably older than you - just one sign of my awesome virility of course, but that's by the way really . I think we're probably spinning closer and closer to Armageddon though RossCo, but we can't know when and since it's written we can't do anything about it , as I'm quite certain you know .
It's a frustrating and thankless task to warn people of the peril they place themselves in unfortunately !


I have ask the point if as you say it’s written and you can’t do anything about it, why bother and make yourself look like a nutter?


That's actually a really important question with a really important answer - I hope I can do it justice.
I might not like it but I suppose I can understand that people don't want to be associated with unpopular or contraversial stuff which might make them seem anti social or even ,as you put it, like a "nutter". This is even more so for people who rely upon popularity or public opinion for their living .
As you get older this fear diminishes as you become more secure and you've had more personal experience of just how surprisingly far people will go to tell a lie and prove it. Once you know for a fact and from your own personal experience that the state will tell massive lies in pursuance of secret agendas and tinker with education , media and scientific data as well as falsifying public records and judicial outcomes you gradually realise that absolutely anything you've been brought up to believe, but which relies upon human input, can be a total illusion. The number of people who believe something is not a test of truth, but how well it has been spread. The real test is whether it stands up to comparison with other information which you know to be correct .

Anyway, you'd be very surprised if you were to apply such tests to Christanity ( the actual religion, not the edited and misrepresented version spread by politicians and the media , and not the smear campaigns against individuals connected with it). You'd find that it doesn't lie and that every single thing it teaches turns out to be correct , often against your expectation.
Now, one thing which it teaches is that we must be truthful and speak up for the truth, whatever the consequences and that's probably the answer to your question.

I'm probably lucky in my personal circumstances that I haven't really got to give a fuck what anyone thinks of me, so perhaps I can afford to buck the system more than many people can.
However, I've found that the more you try to speak plainly and honestly and reject wickedness ,( including wickedness in disguise ), the more you will prosper in every way.

Man cannot actually exist fully without God, and if he tries to do that because he's listened to a tissue of lies from another source, he will soon get himself in an awful muddle as we can see in society today.
It is socially unpopular today to openly acknowledge many truths and facts which are denied or forbidden - to say that the Emporer has no clothes if you like - but in a world of truth we cannot remain silent just because we might "look like a nutter".

Read Gore Vidal. Or the other American cunt whose name escapes me right know in my haze of cheap Polish lager. That'll sort you out.

The ' :D ' gave me a clue about the light-heartedness to be honest. :wink:
If I understood the ad correctly, it is actually a good example of the exception that proves the rule, in that different ethnicities obviously make common sense in the ad.
It is just that in most cases, there seems to be an agenda to make it appear that every single group or couple is now mixed race that I was trying to highlight, - not for any racist reasons (although the anti-racist bigots on here will be sticking their fingers in the ears at this point of course) but because we should all be aware (and wary) of being brainwashed, - or manipulated if you prefer.
I thought warm leather's comment regarding advertisers going after as many markets as possible was a reasonable one, but it doesn't cover why many tv shows have similar 'disproportionalities', nor does it cover why every ad doesn't have a shot, tall, fat, thin, blond, redhead (etc etc) in them, if it was about the above mentioned 'reason'.

Anyway, - that's my take on it - it won't change the mindsets of the usual racist shouters, but that's their problem.

I’m going to have to rephrase the question aren't I?

”I think we're probably spinning closer and closer to Armageddon though RossCo, but we can't know when and since it's written we can't do anything about it”

There’s some context ( I know you know that but just couldn’t resist another word salad)

Now.. oh you know the question so I won’t type it again.

Also doesn’t it become frustrating that 1000’s if not millions of people have probabaly said what you’re saying before over the last 2000 years yet here we still are?
