Dude, your first recourse was to call me satan for offering a counterpoint, hence my ire. I rightly said you were ‘acting like a twat’.

I’m sure you’re not a twat and have good intentions. I’m Irish and many of my friends are travellers. We definitely do not experience the same irrational hatred and bigotry as people with more melanin. That hatred is something I see almost every day. I agree wholeheartedly with Diane on that, despite what I might think of her other views.

Re the Nazis, I’m simply saying your view of the Jews as a race is not so different to theirs. It doesn’t make you a Nazi by any means, but it’s a flawed view. They are not a race.

Very little of what you said in your last comment I actually disagree with. I concur that discrimination takes many forms, but racism, prejudice, and discrimination are different things in my eyes, and in the modern world, my experience is that people of colour have the short end of the straw with the rampant xenophobia and racism we see every day, mostly towards people who are not white rather than any religious or cultural group.
