POST GAME [Round 1, 2024] Broncos vs Roosters

Kind of agree with Mchunt, if someone called me a black **** its not that offensive to be frank... I haven't lived a life of poverty because of my colour, had the same opportunities as everyone else if not more...

I mean, do you think Ezra is upset because he kind of feels as though he has to be??

As far as i'm concerned. Sticks and stones may break my bones but names will never hurt me!

Still be happy to see the roosters cockface receive a 10 match ban.
I'm not saying Ezra shouldn't be upset being insulted. I'm not saying Lenui didn't know what he was doing.

I'm saying perhaps those on this board who are getting their panties in a knot over this might like to reflect on other insults they use. Try practicing what you preach.
 
Before these articles started coming out I heard a rumour that the broncos players had jumped Spencer in the hotel. I don’t believe it but something has happens after the game for sure.

Also heard he’s not getting any suspension which is insane if true

Badel is reporting the opposite, that Mam, Staggs and Carrigan were returning to their rooms only to be bailed up by Leniu who started having a go (verbally) at Staggs before spotting Mam and switching targets
 
Well this selective outrage over classes of insults is a slippery slope. What happens when Ezra is teased about being a crybaby, called sookybubba or something? And he sure as **** will be.

Should that also be banned? Or is everything that hasn't become a political trope given a free pass? Can you call someone a fat ****, a bald ****, an ugly **** or a Karen? Is there really a difference between calling some a dumb **** and a retard? Where do mongoloid and spastic sit these days in the spectrum of taboo insults? Is it okay to call them unco or dickfingers instead?

Lenui is obviously a gigantic dickhead. But are you allowed to call him that? What if he starts crying?

At some point you have to harden the **** up and move past this hysteria.
Cmon dude, you are smarter than this.
Racial shit is fucked and every bloke and his dog know it.

You know very well there is a massive difference between run of the mill insults and racism.

Die on a different hill Mchunt, this isn't the one to do it on.

All insults are fucked. And no, there is no such thing as a "run of the mill insult." Those of us who are old enough to have seen "run of the mill" insults become taboo know this is fashion.
 
No, I'm trying to get you to understand insulting someone is a **** act, regardless of whether you've jumped on a bandwagon that's decided certain classes of insults are taboo.
Being racist is bad (in any form). That's pretty much it.

Racist terms like this didn't just appear overnight (or are all part of some woke movement). There is significant history behind racial discrimination and prejudice compared to people being fat and bald.

So you think it's okay to insult someone based on their appearance as long as it's not "racial?"

How about we move ten years into the future, and get in front of where you are right now?

I didn't say it's ok to insult people (especially on their appearance).

I'm saying racial insults carry so much weight because of the history and impact of systemic racism not just here but worldwide. There is a history of treating people differently sinply based on thier race.

This isn't some fad.

I'm trying to say focus on what you're trying to achieve with an insult, and how this reflects on you. The current fashion has been to empower race and gender insults to God level.

White people are obsessed with beating each other up over this class of insults right now. Being labelled a racist is also an insult.
 
Here we are judging roosters players and fans for being dicks, yet even some Broncos supporters can't grasp the impact of racism on people. Sad stuff. 😔
No mate, I'm trying to get you past this obsession with race and broaden it to being nice to others. As if everyone hasn't had this topic browbeaten into them by now.
 
You know it runs deep when you cant even defend your own bloke from being called a monkey. Wild.
Point of trivia: my ex girlfriend's nickname (Mona) means monkey in Spanish. So everyone called her "monkey." One of her best friend's surname was Negro. Which means "black."
 
All im saying is I’ve been called white boy and white **** and didn’t cry…

OMG -- no tears -- big strong boy!

You know exactly why calling a person of colour is horrible, but I'll lay it out quite simply for you. We're all descendants of apes, and calling a person of colour a monkey suggests that they are not evolved like a 'normal' human. There is no way that someone can degrade another human being of colour more than with these words.

And skip me with the "tHiS iS jUsT mY oPiNiOn" bullshit - you either support Ezra or you shut the **** up.

Nah, we evolve to recognise some shit is off limits and has its foundation in oppression and hatred.

I'd have no issue if he had called Maam a dickhead or a fuckwit.

But to target a bloke with racial shit is just being a scummy lowlife.

Mate you have got this all wrong.
There is no history of people being wiped out for being fat or bald.
But there is plenty of history of people being exterminated because of their race.

Anyone can be a dickhead, that's why these insults are universal.

But to target a person because of race is about as low as it gets as far as I'm concerned.

Segregation and poor treatment of people because of their race is very very recent history and the world is a better place if we **** that nonsense off.
