Red's Thread of General Bigotry

because unlike you I'm not agenda driven, a bigot, or a buffoon

now if you want to discuss it further then I suggest you start a thread in which your black and white view of the world can be explored and laughed at


Actually your 'right shade of white' comment shows you to be all three of 'agenda driven, a bigot, and a buffoon'

You make a point of white cricketers being accepted because they were white, which is wrong, because not everyone accepted them. You also failed to include the most famous non-Englishman ever to play for England, who was the most warmly welcomed of all, because he had fled an apartheid regime. He was so highly thought of that when he was dropped for the S African tour, there was fury among MPs and resignations at the MCC.

"The warmth and esteem in which "Dolly" was held were evident in the many tributes paid to him , as was his part in one of world sport's biggest controversies. Born a South African "Cape coloured", D'Oliveira would have an impact comparable with America's Jesse Owens at the 1936 Berlin Olympics."

Yet you failed to mention him so you could get in your 'right shade of white' shtick.

Bad Hobbit, you have to mention EVERY English cricketer that wasn't born here.

You need to explain the context, otherwise it's not fair on Red. I can't see any bigotry in his post.

Gee thanks!

Although I'm not sure how my pointing out the most popular non-Englishman ever to play for England's cricket team, was a black South African fleeing the apartheid regime, counts as bigotry.

The word 'bigot' always makes me chuckle, as people like you tend to throw it around like confetti, without knowing what it means. As this thread illustrates.

I told you if you wanted to discuss cricket further in the football thread to start a new thread, you chose to ignore that so I kindly did so for you

of course the downside is that I get to choose the title


does no fucker understand the word general

"D'Oliveira would have an impact comparable with America's Jesse Owens at the 1936 Berlin Olympics."

I don't know what's gone on to prompt this thread but I see that infamous lefty liberal lie is still being perpetuated about Hitler and Germany being angered by the success of Jesse Owens conquering his all powerful white supremacist athletes, it's a complete fabrication made up during and after the event by a plethora of agenda ridden parties.

For a start, in 1936 the only thoughts of a 'Blue eyed, blonde haired master race' of white superhuman's were in the minds of those who hated Hitler and his rise to power, much like those who rant and rage against Trump these days.

Anyone who has read Jesse Owens biography 'The Buckeye Bullet' will tell you that during his visit to Germany for the 1936 Berlin Olympics he says that he never experienced any racism or bigotry from any German he met during his time there and was treated with the same respect as every other athlete there regardless of colour, which pleasantly surprised him because he wasn't used to it.

He also says that although he never met Hitler personally, he did see him applauding him warmly, smiling and even waving to him as he went to the podium to collect one of his gold medals.

In fact the only racism he says he encountered during his Olympic success was on returning to America to a ticker tape parade and function in a top hotel for returning athletes, only to be asked to enter the premises through a back entrance with every other black competitor.

Still like they say, tell a lie long enough and with vigour and it becomes a truth to those who want to believe it. :roll:
