More bullshit created because half of the UK population want to police by offence.
It’s clearly a non-racist cultural tradition that’s been going on for a long time. And the thing about racism is it *requires intent*.
If it’s not intended to be racist, but someone decides to *take offence* then that’s their problem – and it shouldn’t be made to be anyone elses.
I can construe lots of things in lots of different ways. I can get upset about them too. Should everyone have to tread on eggshells so I don’t get upset?
Bull. What is going on is cultural homogenisation in the name of “fixing racism” – racism that doesn’t exist. And it infantilises our minds – because we no longer are capable of intellectualising nuance – everything is, for want of a better phrase, black or white nowadays.
It’s clearly more than the name of the pub. It’s cultural and from the area. Whether all the people from there are white or not has zero bearing on it. Intention is a pre-requisite for something to be *actually* racist.
