Orbix Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 6 minutes ago, Aim Here said: So I suppose I can take from that that you honestly think I shouldn't be using the word 'TERF' to describe transphobic bigots. And that you think I shouldn't go to any more antifascist protests because the people I protest against call me anti-white? Just checking. Feel like you’re taking a weird tack with this. TERF is a factual description of a particular political ideology - that was coined by proponents of it - has anyone ever argued that **** was a self-appointed ‘nickname’? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aim Here Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 (edited) 28 minutes ago, The_Kincardine said: The H Bomb is simply unacceptable, whatever analogies you care to use. I'm not making analogies. I'm showing other instances of bigots using the exact same principle you're claiming. You claim that a principle which you contend applies to jewish people and black people (and I disagree with) also applies to Rangers fans, and I'm showing it also being used by bigots and fascists, and you're balking from actually saying 'Yes, I do agree with those bigots', because it lays bare exactly what your argument is about. Why is your (ahem) "analogy" between Rangers fans and black people acceptable, while my "analogy" between neo-Nazis and Rangers fans unacceptable, when it's an "analogy" based on the exact same principle that you espouse, and I don't. Instead, you're reverting to making bare assertions rather than justifying them. No good faith detected, despite your bare assertion to the contrary.

Now you are comparing Rangers fans butthurt feelings at being labelled h*** to a reviled word that has its origins in slavery and has been used to denigrate Black people for centuries Wow!

8MileBU Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 17 minutes ago, Aim Here said: I think that after this week, almost all impartial observers would be in agreement that Rangers' PR strategy of ignoring tabloid journalists, trying to dictate to the BBC who their journalists should be, and farming their outreach work to three snidey middle-aged bigots has been a bit of a public relations disaster. I don't see the other 41 league clubs following suit anytime soon. The other 41 won’t follow suit because the majority are barely given a minutes attention by the MSM in the first place. 4 minutes ago, Dons_1988 said: FFS man, I feel a bit sorry for you here. Most normal humans completely ignore tabloid newspapers. Clearly you feel rangers are victims here, but may I suggest not giving them repeated open goals. I’ll ignore the condescending tone of your opening sentence. The victims here are whoever is on the receiving end of the tabloid’s toxic agenda, whether it’s the front page or the sports page. They are a needless, irrelevant unreliable entity and the sooner they cease to be a thing the better. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petition for the PieandBovril spellchecker to replace Rangers with 'Victim FC' citing the above quote as evidence. I reckon you perhaps picked the wrong week to complain about Rangers being victimized by the mainstream media, given that the 'victims' of this 'persecution' obviously deserve every piece of shame and opprobrium heaped upon them by the tabloids and everyone else, for shitting up the internet with racism, homophobia and hate speech 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What part of all that’s come out this week are you struggling with? Have you conveniently chosen to not have seen the various bigoted tweets from the personal accounts of journalists employed by said tabloid?? My posts weren’t intended to portray Rangers as the victims but to point out that said tabloid journos decided to go on a bigotry witch-hunt but were known to have an agenda then proven to be part of the bigotry problem.
