All this BLM & black history boll ocks it has put them back 60 + years as for our TV ads I sometimes wonder if I'm living in Africa or Jamaica .

Yep....BLM makes sure that everything in 2020 is seen through the lens of race. White oppressors and their black victims. The exact opposite of MLK who wanted to bring people together rather than create a victim/oppressor divide.. :-\

I wonder if this outward display of corporate positive diversity is a manifestation of Sainsbury's becoming a part of Walmart...

My aunt has almost always shopped at Sainsbugs, and usually at the 'diverse' Crawley* store. She tends to wear a St Christopher necklace, nothing new or strange there, and never an issue when shopping. However a month or so ago, the (presumed to be Muslim, by way of her hijab) point blank refused to serve my aunt until she hid her necklace. Unusually for her, she didn't speak her mind, but stormed out of the shop in disgust. Personally I would have had the store manager out and possibly the police.

The sad reality is that anyone who doesn't 'bend the knee' is automatically deemed to be racist, and if you're white and 'bend the knee' you are deemed to have been racist by acknowledging your guilt... Why apologise if you have nothing to apologise for.

*Crawley, being a New Town has always been a pot of genuine diversity, and generally without significant cultural clashes... The shittier parts are generally poor/white, the posher parts generally white and well to do non whites, and the bulk of the town is pretty much a melting pot.

Just tell her you object to doing it on principle, and you'll drop her at Aldi/Lidl or she'll walk.





When you wake up, the nice, black nurse will stitch your face for you  ;D

This is where we find ourselves in 2020.

A different view or opinion is simply not allowed. If you have a different viewpoint then you are a racist. No ifs or buts. George Floyd is the new messiah.

Also, Al....you are a white man of a certain vintage therefore your opinions are irrelevant.

Irrelevant to who? I don't give a toss about BLM and I don't care who knows it. Their views are as irrelevant to me as mine are to them. The only reason this shit rears it's ugly head is because of the media, it doesn't affect anyone's day.......does it?

My wife's main school has 97% Muslim children, both black and Asian. BLM doesn't seem to be very high on the agenda, with either parents or kids. It only exists in the minds of unemployed, white, left wing youths; Gay, middle aged serial protesters and the BBC. Ignore it, you're giving it oxygen.

In exercising his right of expression, he has been derided by the woke leftist bandwagon and it has effectively resulted in destroying his career, yet still he stands by what he believes and rightly so. And clearly there are those who agree with him strongly enough to stand by him as he formed a burgeoning political group.


He might be more persuasive if he didn't present himself as a petulant jerk enjoying his self-inflicted victimhood.


Or just stuck at acting.

It cost me a recent job offer because I presumed 'diversity' to mean a general acceptance of different people and their opinions and beliefs.

I wonder if the 3% was reversed whether it would become an issue...

You're right, obviously that it should be a total non issue, but the wokeness is becoming harder and harder to ignore, and stomach.
