You joined this forum two days ago and have posted exclusively in this thread expounding pro-right wing views. Some might say that you're the opportunist.
Not at all I bet over time I’ll post more in other threads but this is the hot topic at the minute .

I’ve also posted in the Gwladys Phil thread on Tommye, the other teams kit thread , the Hummel thread and what’s on tv thread to my knowledge.
 
Mad how the press can get away with calling Antifa and the far left ‘protesters’ and the right ‘far right thugs’ . the only ones acting like thugs and scumbags last week were the far left and Antifa . No bias whatsoever lol

In Plymouth, while guarding a statue a peaceful protest nobody went near the gang of scruffs (I know it's Plymouth) hurled racist abuse at passers by and harassed women. One young woman also said about the catcalling etc she was subjected too. Yet not a single mention in the media, I wonder why?

Thats the whole point of these protests too. I'd happily stand and stop Churchill or Cromwell having graffiti on them. I'm not sure I'd risk my liberty for a slavetrader mind. However their MO is to attack, lie about and intimidate black people.
 
FWIW I think both sides going out tomorrow is a disgrace but the tone was set last week so what do you expect?

I’ve been locked down for 10 weeks observing what the government have told me ( underlying health issues) to do yet these people are risking a second spike for us all without a slap on the wrist .

I find it all embarrassing and for me it’s seems a good excuse for most to mob up and get out the house .

These people are going to put the NHS under more pressure and possible put people at risk . I’m not for any of it but I hate the bias towards the far left like they are some kind of guardian angels .
 
Home and away everywhere with Everton and season ticket in the disabled corner by the church . Just because you post big waffling Tedious rants on here and twitter Doesn’t make you a better blue than me mate

Fair enough, good to here it, you're probably a much better blue than I am!

We get a lot of reds who come on here, post in single posts to generally antagonise. We had one the other day who came on accusing me and Dave of being reds in his first posts. They seem quite rattled, which is odd considering they are about to win the league!

We know that they are a right wing, racist establishment who had their mate Tommy Robinson turning up for a game recently. So it's not uncommon for a red to come on here and follow a similar pattern.

Anyway if you're a blue then you're certainly welcome, I wouldn't be wasting much of your time making your way through my ramblings though haha!

these situations are always going to attract mutants . However Plymouth is a proud military city I’m not surprised some of them went out to protect memorials. I still don’t agree with any of it under this covid 19 situation

I think you're right mate. I didn't go to any protests. The thing is though, the horse has bolted long before these protests, the conga lines for VE day, the Cummings affair, the punch ups on beaches, now a group of (it should be said) mainly white idiots going statue hunting. I know I have a laugh and joke about such things, but I do think as a white person (which I am) it would be very odd to be pushing oneself to the front of the cue to go pulling down statues. If black people want them to come down, thats fair enough but I do think it's a bit unhelpful.

I also think you are right with the Churchill statue. There's a small section of idiots (who mainly label themselves antifa) who can't really move beyond wanting a punch up, so will look to do things to enable this. I mean whatever you think about Churchill he was never a fascist. He held some racist views, but also played a remarkable role in helping the country defeat Hitler. Again it's not my place to say one negates the other but I don't think graffiting statues is a sensible use of time. He is seen favourably by lots of people and you just push those people towards Tommy Robinson when you do that.

I think thats the issue though, that they want Tommy and his ilk there. Whereas to me anyway, that is the last thing thats needed.

The sad part in this, is like I said the other day Black Lives Matter have actually opposed these protests, never mind the graffiti. They are a peaceful organisation who want to help in their communities. Yes their main objective is to help Black people but also they want to try and support poor white people. I don't agree with everything they say, but I do think that on the whole they do a lot of good. Unfortuately, the idiots who behaved badly, ignored their messages and ambition get a bit of a free pass, as BLM have to take the flak for their decisions.

The whole thing has been handled awfully. I hope we can get some protection of key War memorials without needing Tommy and his ilk there, as it will just spiral.
