You agree with the "#BanTheBurqa" movement however do you not believe that people should be able to express themselves however they see fit? Just because it is not a religious requirement does not mean you should not be allowed to wear a burqa; people should be allowed to express themselves and in that not be discriminated against due to there religion beliefs. That is just like saying you can not wear tracksuits because it's 99% synthetic material and therefor easier to set fire to, but you don't see a #BanTheTracksuit movement. My point here is people should be allowed to wear what they want when they want, and just because some people think that people who believe in a different religion or look differently to them think that they are going to bomb the world does not mean that others should look at them in the same way. 

You also said that you agree with capitalism, we can define capitalism by this definition: an economic and political system in which a country's trade and industry are controlled by private owners for profit, rather than by the state. I presume you have not read the book An Inspector Calls otherwise you would know why capitalism is a bad thing, which I am sure others will agree. You stated that "If people want to donate to charity or pay extra tax then it should be a choice, not an expectation." firstly there is no law that states you need to donate to charity it is just the humane thing to do, and charities do not just help people. And Secondly paying tax is not an expectation it is a legal requirement in the UK. Do you not believe that health-care should be free for everyone? Or when a factory closes down people should not be allowed to have money given to them by the government while trying to find work? Or you car got stolen so you call the Police and they will probably charge you a sum of money because they aren't getting paid enough due to a lack of money being given to them by the government. My point here is YES we do need to change how things are run, but NO we do not need to live in a capitalist society again.

Rydolph at the bottom of you statement you quoted Margaret Thatcher in the sense that one of our biggest "problems is that we are being governed by people who care more about feelings that they do about thoughts and ideas". Please help me understand this ludicrously. How are we governed by feelings? Yes, social media use these wonderful little sounds to make us more attracted to there app, and yes that can be a bad thing but how does that damage creativity? If anything it promotes it. Artists such as NF and Eminem wouldn't be a thing if they weren't aware of there feelings. 


In Conclusion, capitalism should never come back and the Conservative Party are trying to bring back the old days were we weren't governed by our feelings instead we were governed by the capitalists. Furthermore UKIP have been known to be racist and discriminate people, should we really have them as our countries leader? NO!

If you have read An Inspector Calls you would understand that the town it was set in was fictional. This is just so it enforces the idea that capitalism does not just affect one certain area. And in this quote by the Inspector we understand that this does not only affect female gender, ‘there are millions and millions of Eva Smiths and John Smiths’. And maybe you would understand why capitalism is bad thing.

And what is inherently wrong with racism? Wrongs and rights are subjective and made up. Why is racism seen as wrong now when a mere 50 years ago it was still the norm? Why is it racist for a person to care about their own race or country first or even only? Just because you love your family most, doesn't mean you hate every other family. How is it racist if I want to see only white faces in my white country. Why is it racist for somebody living in the UK to not give a flying fuck about some starving kids in Africa: a continent mostly in ruin, not due to "slavery" but due to them being, on average, genetically inferior to some other races? Multiculturalism has never worked and will destroy every developed country if keeps being pushed onto them. How can you bring vastly different cultures and peoples together into one big melting pot. Races are not equal in nature, same way animals are never equal. We may look alike, but we're a whole lot different on the inside. Now think about it, the opinion you have on me is negative right now, but imagine if you were brought up in a country where this was the norm? Would you still have your views, or mine?

LilSnek you ask what is wrong with racism, and I am going to give you answer. Racism, by my definition, is disliking someone because of their biological ethnic heritage. Racism is both idiotic and immoral. Disliking others due to unchangeable biological characteristics is nonsensical, defies reason, and is void of any moral value. People have the right to be treated equally not be discriminated against due to there biological ethnic heritage. And you go on about "how is it racist if I want to see only white faces in my white country" well guess what this isn't your country nor is it a white country. Granted, there are more white people than black people (or other ethnic) however; what's to say they weren't grown up here? What is to say that they weren't in the same type of education you were in? What is to say they aren't doing the same job as you LilSnek. You also went on about why people should not give a "flying fuck about some starving kids in Africa", well the truth here is you don't have to give a "flying fuck" about kids in Africa that are dying due to a lack of food and clean water. But I can truly say if you went to Africa and spent a week in the same shows as the "starving kids" you would understand why they need help. It is not okay to be so stuck up and moral values that you only care about your family, yes family in many cases do come first. But that is not to say you need to be living the high life before you start caring about the people in other countries that are less fortunate than ourselves. The basics for human survival is food, water, warmth and shelter. And as long as you have got those things you should at least be thankful for what you have. 

You later go into saying how "Races are not equal in nature, same way animals are never equal". Well firstly yes races are not equal in nature and yes animals are not equal either. But you do not see a German Shepard and a Cocker Spaniel hating each other at first sight. My point here is that you should not judge someone by there race, disability, religion, or where ever or not someone is in a different social class to you. No. It is okay to not like someone because of there personality, we have all been guilty of this. But at no point does it say that White people are better than Asians. Or does it say that Asians are better than Black people. And so on. You don't go to a party and say to yourself they are wearing a blue tie when everyone else is wearing a black tie, so therefor I am going to avoid that person. Because that is pretty much what racism is people fighting over what colour tie is better. When the truth is there is no colour that is, they are exactly the same.

LilSnek you also said that "We may look alike, but we're a whole lot different on the inside" please tell me what is different. Granted everyone's brain chemistry is different, some people have cancer, some people have autism but how does that make us not equal? How does having anyone of those things make us different and not human? Please provide more information on this and I would love to see it. Also don't forget the sources.

Later on you in your opinion you asked me a question "the opinion you have on me is negative right now, but imagine if you were brought up in a country where this was the norm? Would you still have your views, or mine?" The answer to that is are you not from the UK? What makes you different to me? I can answer that for you nothing. And yes I would still have my views, because as I said earlier it is morally wrong for me to be discriminated against.

Socialism gives away everything to those who have not contributed as much to society while taking from those who have contributed loads and have made their way to the top which is ridiculously unfair. If I have earned my money then I expect to pay the same percentage of tax as anyone else. This links to the pension tax; I find it ridiculous that pensioners must pay tax out of their pension, when they've already paid a lifetime of tax to the Government. 

UKIP are not racist, they just want to sustain British culture. But here's the thing, UKIP is quite possibly the only party which isn't scared of branded of being "racist," unlike every other party, which is a good thing because they're more interested in saving our country than caring what people think about them.

Rydolph, you seem to be missing a vital part of your opinion. Facts. Burqas are rarely used in hiding the identity of people, and even so what is to stop them from using hats, sunglasses, scarves, hoodies, big hats, balaclavas, masks or anything else? You say "you would much rather protect someone's freedom", well what is freedom if you can not wear what you want, freedom is the idea of liberty and we all know that liberty means: the state of being free within society from oppressive restrictions imposed by authority on one's behaviour or political views. You appear to want to ban the burqa but at the same time you want freedom and liberty. You can not have both and claim to our country to be free. Let's see what Channel 4 news views are: https://www.channel4.com/news/factcheck/...ror-threat

You go onto socialism and how "it gives away everything to those that have not contributed much to society" socialism is the act of caring for one an other. Not the idea of giving everything away to people that have not Contributed as much to society. Someone can be working for a charity and yet earn less than 20k a year and yet there are contributing to society. We do not have to be capatilist country to give to society, because in 1900's and 1800's there were barely any charities.

You say that "UKIP isn't racist" but then you say "UKIP is quite possibly the only party which isn't scared of branded of being racist" so are they racist or are are they not? Let's see what the Huffington post have got to say about UKIP: https://m.huffingtonpost.co.uk/news/ukip...p88AR0p-4g
 UKIP is not racist. Please read what I said properly. In context, other parties (like the Conservatives now unfortunately) are scared to be branded as racist when they are not. E.g. Any attempts to sustain British culture or prevent religion-based crime would be branded as racist. UKIP doesn't care about being branded as that because it doesn't affect how they function; they just want to do their jobs.

It should be a choice to help others, not a requirement. Socialism puts pressure on helping others and demands that people pay different amounts of tax, which is WRONG

Let's share some facts should we? Almost half of Ukip's supporters declare themselves to be 'racially prejudiced', yet the majority say they are inherently not racist.

Pollster YouGov asked the party's voters if they consider themselves racially prejudiced, to which 42% said yes, while 49% of Ukippers said no.

However, 28% admitted to having racist views, a higher figure than voters for the other main parties.

Where as 22% of Conservative voters in the study said they had racists views, followed by 13% of Labour supporters, almost neck-and-neck with the Lib Dems who were on 12%.

Political Party's are run by the people for the people, and therefor take the views and opinions of there voters to keep there vote. 

At no point does it say that it is mandatory to be a socialist. And I appear to be failing to see how it puts pressure on people, please tell me how. And tax is based on how much you earn, and then you are taxed on other things such as bedroom tax which only applies to rented houses not private. And tax goes towards paying for government services such as the Police, Council, NHS, Fire Service, Military Services and more. Just because you are a socialist does not mean you have to pay more tax, as there are more factors than if you are a socialist or not.

You are not listening to what I posted later in the post, morals are just the pimped up opinions of the ruling people. Racism cannot be immoral for everyone as the people who create wrongs and rights are also the ruling people; that is also the reason why racism was seen as acceptable not too long ago. Also calling something idiotic is simply your opinion meaning there is nothing holding that up.

Quote:Disliking others due to unchangeable biological characteristics is nonsensical, defies reason, and is void of any moral value.
There again you use "moral" which is not naturistic in it's sense and is therefore simply made up. What is nonsensical is thinking that being racist defies reason. Also I never once said I was racist, I simply implied that it's not wrong to be. You also for some reason imply that I suddenly hate every other culture and ethnicity in this post yet I never said that. Also, maybe if they were more independent I would dislike them less but we can get into that later on in the post.  

Quote:People have the right to be treated equally not be discriminated against due to there biological ethnic heritage.
Again, why? What is your reasoning behind this? "Because it's morally right"? Wrongs and rights are made up opinions, they're choices. People chose them and just because you chose that one doesn't mean we all have to abide by it. Rights are also made up, a right is just something that is given because the ruling powers say so, not because it's correct or incorrect. Who even states what's correct or incorrect?

Quote:And you go on about "how is it racist if I want to see only white faces in my white country" well guess what this isn't your country nor is it a white country.
Well you see, it is my country as I am English and this country is, you guessed it: England. And it is a white country as it always has been. White settlers were the ones who made England what it is today, the ones who aided in creating civilisation more than any other race on this planet. You are probably believing some false information on England's history. The true history can be found quite easily and here's an example of the ruling powers pushing an agenda that isn't true at all:[Image: 0A80NFc.jpg]


Quote:Granted, there are more white people than black people (or other ethnic) however; what's to say they weren't grown up here? What is to say that they weren't in the same type of education you were in? What is to say they aren't doing the same job as you LilSnek.
Maybe they did grow up here, were in the same education and did the same job as me; wouldn't make them the same as me.

Quote:You also went on about why people should not give a "flying fuck about some starving kids in Africa", well the truth here is you don't have to give a "flying fuck" about kids in Africa that are dying due to a lack of food and clean water. But I can truly say if you went to Africa and spent a week in the same shows as the "starving kids" you would understand why they need help.
The amount of chances we have given these people, the amount of "aid" and help we have given them and what do they give back? Nothing. They still fail, become to dependent and fail. How did England grow into what it is today? Did it ask for aid? Did it sit there and die? No. The country fought and worked tirelessly to grow into what it is today. I don't see developing countries in Africa working their arses off. They're lazy (if you want proof message me and I can provide it). And if I went to Africa I would not change my mind, I would know that, with them sitting on a goldmine of aquifers and some of the most precious resources in the world, they have failed themselves, even with  their lower average IQ.

Quote:It is not okay to be so stuck up
Says who? If I want to be stuck up I can be as stuck up as can be? I don't believe I am but in your opinion I am. What am I supposed to take from that? Why should I have to keep bringing up that wrongs and rights are opinions/made up when not relating back into nature.

Quote:and moral values that you only care about your family, yes family in many cases do come first. But that is not to say you need to be living the high life before you start caring about the people in other countries that are less fortunate than ourselves. The basics for human survival is food, water, warmth and shelter. And as long as you have got those things you should at least be thankful for what you have.
What you are saying is that it's wrong for me to want to succeed in life better than others. See I'm not saying don't care at all but you saying that competition is wrong is incorrect, as I said before, it is in nature to be competitive, it's in our blood to want to do better. That is correct, the reason being it relates back to nature and as we both know nature is: "relating to the natural order of things". You also said "start caring about the people in other countries", my reply is I don't and won't. There is no reason for me to so why should I give a shit?

Quote:You later go into saying how "Races are not equal in nature, same way animals are never equal". Well firstly yes races are not equal in nature and yes animals are not equal either.
You have understood something I said, well done! 🤧

Quote:But you do not see a German Shepard and a Cocker Spaniel hating each other at first sight. My point here is that you should not judge someone by there race, disability, religion, or where ever or not someone is in a different social class to you.
You go a bit off track here and stop thinking as much. The reason most dogs won't hate each other instantly these days is because they're all domesticated. They have been bred over hundreds even thousands, sometimes, of years to be like this. Back before all of this, it is common knowledge that they were "vicious" animals that would kill anything they saw. This is true as it relates back to nature, yet I dislike having to say vicious as it's not; it's natural. You say you should not but why shouldn't I? You say a lot of statements but have nothing to back them up except made up things called morals.

Quote:No. It is okay to not like someone because of there personality, we have all been guilty of this. But at no point does it say that White people are better than Asians. Or does it say that Asians are better than Black people. And so on.

Because that is pretty much what racism is people fighting over what colour tie is better. When the truth is there is no colour that is, they are exactly the same.
Firstly, I never said whites were better than Asians, I disagree with that totally. You contradict yourself by agreeing that races aren't equal then saying they are exactly the same. :/ You were right before when you say they aren't equal as they have large differences in many things such as genetics, DNA and IQ to name a few. Also the bullshit about the ties is the worst analogy I've ever heard and does not correlate to racism at all.

Quote:LilSnek you also said that "We may look alike, but we're a whole lot different on the inside" please tell me what is different. Granted everyone's brain chemistry is different
You just answered your own query. Why keep contradicting yourself? And to answer the rest, the answer for the previous one answers it pretty nicely ^

Quote:some people have cancer, some people have autism but how does that make us not equal?
Where did you bring all this from? I was taking about race and IQ and genetics not a disease and a mental condition.

At this point you have completely lost what you're talking about. I never said about them not being human just them not being the same as each other. As you said there is such thing as different "breeds" of dogs, which look different and are the same animal. Also I don't need to provide information for all of this; it's naturistic. It's even in your blood to know this, you are just too brainwashed to see it.

Quote:Later on you in your opinion you asked me a question "the opinion you have on me is negative right now, but imagine if you were brought up in a country where this was the norm? Would you still have your views, or mine?" The answer to that is are you not from the UK? What makes you different to me? I can answer that for you nothing. And yes I would still have my views, because as I said earlier it is morally wrong for me to be discriminated against.
What makes me different to you, if you are indeed a white British male, is not much really, which is what I already stated earlier. And you most likely would not have your views as, as I have already stated, morals are made up (if not denoting nature) and pushed onto you by the ruling power. So if the ruling power was a fascist power, most likely, you would be a fascist.

You are not listening to what I posted later in the post, morals are just the pimped up opinions of the ruling people. Racism cannot be immoral for everyone as the people who create wrongs and rights are also the ruling people; that is also the reason why racism was seen as acceptable not too long ago. Also calling something idiotic is simply your opinion meaning there is nothing holding that up.

Quote:Disliking others due to unchangeable biological characteristics is nonsensical, defies reason, and is void of any moral value.
There again you use "moral" which is not naturistic in it's sense and is therefore simply made up. What is nonsensical is thinking that being racist defies reason. Also I never once said I was racist, I simply implied that it's not wrong to be. You also for some reason imply that I suddenly hate every other culture and ethnicity in this post yet I never said that. Also, maybe if they were more independent I would dislike them less but we can get into that later on in the post.  

Quote:People have the right to be treated equally not be discriminated against due to there biological ethnic heritage.
Again, why? What is your reasoning behind this? "Because it's morally right"? Wrongs and rights are made up opinions, they're choices. People chose them and just because you chose that one doesn't mean we all have to abide by it. Rights are also made up, a right is just something that is given because the ruling powers say so, not because it's correct or incorrect. Who even states what's correct or incorrect?

Quote:And you go on about "how is it racist if I want to see only white faces in my white country" well guess what this isn't your country nor is it a white country.
Well you see, it is my country as I am English and this country is, you guessed it: England. And it is a white country as it always has been. White settlers were the ones who made England what it is today, the ones who aided in creating civilisation more than any other race on this planet. You are probably believing some false information on England's history. The true history can be found quite easily and here's an example of the ruling powers pushing an agenda that isn't true at all:[Image: 0A80NFc.jpg]


Quote:Granted, there are more white people than black people (or other ethnic) however; what's to say they weren't grown up here? What is to say that they weren't in the same type of education you were in? What is to say they aren't doing the same job as you LilSnek.
Maybe they did grow up here, were in the same education and did the same job as me; wouldn't make them the same as me.

Quote:You also went on about why people should not give a "flying fuck about some starving kids in Africa", well the truth here is you don't have to give a "flying fuck" about kids in Africa that are dying due to a lack of food and clean water. But I can truly say if you went to Africa and spent a week in the same shows as the "starving kids" you would understand why they need help.
The amount of chances we have given these people, the amount of "aid" and help we have given them and what do they give back? Nothing. They still fail, become to dependent and fail. How did England grow into what it is today? Did it ask for aid? Did it sit there and die? No. The country fought and worked tirelessly to grow into what it is today. I don't see developing countries in Africa working their arses off. They're lazy (if you want proof message me and I can provide it). And if I went to Africa I would not change my mind, I would know that, with them sitting on a goldmine of aquifers and some of the most precious resources in the world, they have failed themselves, even with  their lower average IQ.

Quote:It is not okay to be so stuck up
Says who? If I want to be stuck up I can be as stuck up as can be? I don't believe I am but in your opinion I am. What am I supposed to take from that? Why should I have to keep bringing up that wrongs and rights are opinions/made up when not relating back into nature.

Quote:and moral values that you only care about your family, yes family in many cases do come first. But that is not to say you need to be living the high life before you start caring about the people in other countries that are less fortunate than ourselves. The basics for human survival is food, water, warmth and shelter. And as long as you have got those things you should at least be thankful for what you have.
What you are saying is that it's wrong for me to want to succeed in life better than others. See I'm not saying don't care at all but you saying that competition is wrong is incorrect, as I said before, it is in nature to be competitive, it's in our blood to want to do better. That is correct, the reason being it relates back to nature and as we both know nature is: "relating to the natural order of things". You also said "start caring about the people in other countries", my reply is I don't and won't. There is no reason for me to so why should I give a shit?

Quote:You later go into saying how "Races are not equal in nature, same way animals are never equal". Well firstly yes races are not equal in nature and yes animals are not equal either.
You have understood something I said, well done! 🤧

Quote:But you do not see a German Shepard and a Cocker Spaniel hating each other at first sight. My point here is that you should not judge someone by there race, disability, religion, or where ever or not someone is in a different social class to you.
You go a bit off track here and stop thinking as much. The reason most dogs won't hate each other instantly these days is because they're all domesticated. They have been bred over hundreds even thousands, sometimes, of years to be like this. Back before all of this, it is common knowledge that they were "vicious" animals that would kill anything they saw. This is true as it relates back to nature, yet I dislike having to say vicious as it's not; it's natural. You say you should not but why shouldn't I? You say a lot of statements but have nothing to back them up except made up things called morals.

Quote:No. It is okay to not like someone because of there personality, we have all been guilty of this. But at no point does it say that White people are better than Asians. Or does it say that Asians are better than Black people. And so on. You don't go to a party and say to yourself they are wearing a blue tie when everyone else is wearing a black tie, so therefor I am going to avoid that person. Because that is pretty much what racism is people fighting over what colour tie is better. When the truth is there is no colour that is, they are exactly the same.
Firstly, I never said whites were better than Asians, I disagree with that totally. You contradict yourself by agreeing that races aren't equal then saying they are exactly the same. :/ You were right before when you say they aren't equal as they have large differences in many things such as genetics, DNA and IQ to name a few. Also the bullshit about the ties is the worst analogy I've ever heard and does not correlate to racism at all.

Quote:LilSnek you also said that "We may look alike, but we're a whole lot different on the inside" please tell me what is different. Granted everyone's brain chemistry is different
You just answered your own query. Why keep contradicting yourself? And to answer the rest, the answer for the previous one answers it pretty nicely ^

  at no point did I state you were racist. All I said was "Disliking others due to unchangeable biological characteristics is nonsensical, defies reason, and is void of any moral value." and at no point did I state or imply you were racist.

Lilsnek you said "Rights are also made up" don't think they are, I am 100% certain that in the UK as there are at least 13 articles on Human Rights and 4 protocols also on Human Rights, ranging from the right to a free education to the right freedom of life. You also said that "a right is just something given because the ruling power say so" not necessarily take same-sex marriage for an example, the Queen did not approve of this change in law and yet it is now legal, you would of thought that due to her position as the Queen people would of agreed with her opinion yet they didn't, they done what they knew would be the right thing to do. "Who even states what's correct or incorrect?" I'm guessing that a hypothetical question.


Quote:People have the right to be treated equally not be discriminated against due to there biological ethnic heritage.

You asked why, and here's my answer: racism is wrong, as all people should be treated as equals, and there is no one supreme race or inferior race. All people are made of the same body parts, tissues, and organs, and therefore are just as equal and each are as valuable as the next person no matter what race they are. I am pretty sure I stated this as well in an earlier post.

Once again no it isn't your country, it is no-ones country. People run the country. People live in this country. But this does not mean it is country. Did you some how buy this country and no-ones know about it? You live in this country, you work in this country but it doesn't say anywhere apart from you saying "it is my country" over and over again.

You do like jumping to conclusions don't you. I did not state that people are all the same, I am saying everyone should (and has the right) be treated equally.

Well, firstly I am not going to message you for this "proof" just post it on this thread. And because you haven't provided proof here's my response: Countries in Africa do need aid, this is mainly due to there government collapsing or being capitalists and therefor not caring for there people. In some ways we were lucky to have the World Wars because it taught most of (clearly not everyone) the importance of socialism and respect people deserve. You also said "They're lazy" if anything they are the complete opposite, this is because some people in Africa have to walk for miles to get water and food. And yet we get it from the tap or shop. And I don't understand how IQ has come into this.

Lilsnek, firstly go back to school there are something called comma's, and I am not quite sure why you decided to analyse the analogy about the ties.

You seem to of only not taken in the whole  statement in mind. As I also mentioned cancer, and autism. but you aren't answering the actual question. How does it make us not equal? If you look at 6 sided dye you don't say that one is better because the other one is slightly chipped or has been used more often.

How are people who are from a different ethnic background different? And how are people who have cancer, and autism different? The answer for both questions is that they are not, in case that is a hard question for you.

Well firstly, how am I "brainwashed"? And just in case you didn't know the definition of brainwashed is: pressurize (someone) into adopting radically different beliefs by using systematic and often forcible means. I'm not radicalised. I'm also struggling to see how you are completely lost.
