People will always find an excuse for using such terms, BTW, the N word is also detailed in the Collins dictionary, is that also acceptable to you?

Well it is cut out of several songs these days. (Or the songs not sung anymore.) Ag Pleez Deddy, Jeremy Taylor. Changed to negroes in the Sun has got his hat on, hip hip hip hooray. There are numerous other examples.

But it's ok to use unsavoury language about other cultures? What a nice chap you are.

When have I ever "preached" inclusivity?

People have been using the N word since the 1800, if not longer, doesn't make it right or decent. For someone who preaches inclusivity you are ignorant of what it means.

Nick London has been nicknamed Londonistan for a very long time now, from as far back as the 1970s.

Population replacement by any other name it would be called invasion. 
Just because I don't say anything, it doesn't mean I haven't noticed!

This obsession with global control always ends badly historically, always has always will,

Another benefit of colonisation.

Being hunted to near extinction in Tasmania, and driven off their lands on the mainland by an incompatible culture is likely to leave scars — one of which is possibly the common human failing of seeking solace in harmful substances...

That is no excuse for the Abos buggering their own children

Can't disagree, man's inhumanity to man. And it starts with disrespectful comments  regarding our capital, calling it Londonistan for having a very multicultural population. The benefit of being ignorant is that they don't know they're ignorant. 😉

Don't forget that America also had British penal colonies. The difference is that the US threw aside British rule and became a sovereign nation.

Neither Australia nor Canada did and, while being distinct countries, were held back by British legal ties, while the US forged ahead...


The US forged ahead?  Really? Third world poverty, (the poor are not all black either.) They let psychopaths have free access to firearms, including the police.

Their biggest problem is the white people who invaded Australia when all the convicts were exported from Britain to Australia.
