Obtuse question.Oh, is that what he meant?
Sterling is an oppressed minority?

You’re clearly not worth talking to.Oh, is that what he meant?

Sorry.You’re clearly not worth talking to.
Fair enough.Sorry.
Hand on heart, I literally didn't understand his point ... hence asking for examples and asking you for clarity if it meant Sterling (or I was missing something).
Written comments and their meaning are not always apparent to some people (i.e. me here). And I guess my reply (which was honestly asking for some clarity) wasn't either.
It may have LOOKED to you that I was being deliberately dim/obtuse. On my kids life, I wasn't. I just didn't understand the point, hence trying to get some clarity, from poster, you, anyone.
If I WAS being deliberately obtuse, I would have tried to argue it away or just ignored your reply.
Apologies if upset you. Again... honestly just didn't get point. Whether I should have or not, I didn't.
(Edit. Lesson learned. I will caveat future queries to make clear I'm not trying to be a smart arse/nasty)
Thanks for fair reply and additional comment.Fair enough.
To clarify the point the other guy initially made, Sterling is a member of a racial minority subjected to discrimination and abuse etc.
The people in this thread having a pop at him are doing so on the basis that because he’s spoken out about it in the past he’s now somehow duty bound to be front and centre every time it happens.
They’re also conveniently sidestepping the major issue, being the racist abuse that’s going on, and instead choosing to focus their ire on the black guy who’s had the nerve to complain about similar things in the past.
A quick look at his LinkedIn page and low and behold, it's covered in the usual racist's imagery.Burglar bond was not built by a bricklayer. I can confidently say I probably even know which country the perpetrators were from.
Looks a Britain first type.Just browsing LinkedIn and saw a comment from someone who happens to work at Kier Northampton.
His comment was in reply to some really poor bricklaying:

So, should I report? His comment wasn't that bad, but you can be damn sure he thinks worse if that's the first thing that comes in to his tiny brain.
I don't there's enough to do anything with, but at least making his employer aware might be a start.
Just found more.Looks a Britain first type.
Needs clamping down on.
I take it you’re a British leftist subversive who seeks to flood your country with foreign Arabs who hate you. Or a globalist leftist subversive who seeks the demise of England. We have miserable leftist vermin here in the USA too. You guys are MISERABLE.
Report what exactly?Just browsing LinkedIn and saw a comment from someone who happens to work at Kier Northampton.

That they have a racist employee?Report what exactly?
I have to say, I agree. He may be a racist but what exactly can you expect them to do about it?Report what exactly?
Keep an eye on him....see that it isn't affecting his work? How do you know he doesn't have foreign colleagues? He's almost certainly managing contractors with foreign employees.I have to say, I agree. He may be a racist but what exactly can you expect them to do about it?
They’d probably sack half the workforce.That they have a racist employee?
A lot of racists in all sectors but you are just surmising. We don’t know shit.Keep an eye on him....see that it isn't affecting his work? How do you know he doesn't have foreign colleagues? He's almost certainly managing contractors with foreign employees.
Ah I guess that's ok then.A lot of racists in all sectors but you are just surmising. We don’t know shit.
That would be utterly ridiculous. Unless the person is doing something illegal (in which case report it to the police) keep your nose out. Thought police at work.Keep an eye on him....see that it isn't affecting his work? How do you know he doesn't have foreign colleagues?

These views aren't compatible with living in modern society, the exact thing they blame non-white people for. I would expect twats like this to be sacked once their company finds out and their reputation starts going down the pan. Definitely needs to be reported.Just found more.
A bunch of hand clap emojis to this comment:
Would you be happy being served by a racist police officer? Or a racist doctor? Enabling dickheads like this to remain in a job and turning a blind eye to ignorant bastards is exactly what enables supporters like that City twat to think they can behave like that with impunity.That would be utterly ridiculous. Unless the person is doing something illegal (in which case report it to the police) keep your nose out. Thought police at work.
No. Mad response. I'd rather fight back against recently empowered cnuts like this. The weird responses here so far have decided it.That would be utterly ridiculous. Unless the person is doing something illegal (in which case report it to the police) keep your nose out. Thought police at work.
if i'm reading what @VeevaVee has mentioned correctly, the guy is making pretty dodgy comments online, on a platform that shows his current work place.That would be utterly ridiculous. Unless the person is doing something illegal (in which case report it to the police) keep your nose out. Thought police at work.
It's shocking isn't it. Standard bigot defending behaviour: "thought police"No. Mad response. I'd rather fight back against recently empowered cnuts like this. The weird responses here so far have decided it.
Nothing bigoted about it. I just hate people getting involved in situations they know nothing about.It's shocking isn't it. Standard bigot defending behaviour: "thought police"
I’m not defending or accusing. You’ve read a post about someone on LinkedIn and immediately suggested reporting him without really knowing anything beyond a couple of posts.Ah I guess that's ok then.
And surmising what? He definitely does manage contractors with a lot of foreign employees. That's what a project manager does. He'll likely be involved in the tender process of contractors too.
Weird that you're defending him to be honest.
Aye. Cya thenNothing bigoted about it. I just hate people getting involved in situations they know nothing about.
Isn't this something they do in China? "Keep an eye" on their citizens so their productivity stays efficient and they don't stray away from the "truth".Keep an eye on him....see that it isn't affecting his work? How do you know he doesn't have foreign colleagues? He's almost certainly managing contractors with foreign employees.
His comments make it pretty clear what this guy is all about. No ambiguity about it. Or do comments about "foreign Arabs" and "leftist vermin" mean something else to you?Nothing bigoted about it. I just hate people getting involved in situations they know nothing about.
Precisely. Touch of the East Germany about itNothing bigoted about it. I just hate people getting involved in situations they know nothing about.
I know he's racist from what I've seen. Whether it's enough proof for anything to happen I'll leave up to someone else.I’m not defending or accusing. You’ve read a post about someone on LinkedIn and immediately suggested reporting him without really knowing anything beyond a couple of posts.
What a weird responseIsn't this something they do in China? "Keep an eye" on their citizens so their productivity stays efficient and they don't stray away from the "truth".

Exactly mate. It’s laughable on a thread about Man City fans
To be fair, no side on the political spectrum talks respectfully about their opposition so it's a bit precious to single out "leftist vermin" as some type of criminal insult.His comments make it pretty clear what this guy is all about. No ambiguity about it. Or do comments about "foreign Arabs" and "leftist vermin" mean something else to you?
If the person is doing their job professionally then what do I care? If their behaviour is racist then that's illegal and a police matter, which should be reported to the police.Would you be happy being served by a racist police officer? Or a racist doctor? Enabling dickheads like this to remain in a job and turning a blind eye to ignorant bastards is exactly what enables supporters like that City twat to think they can behave like that with impunity.
It's a thread about a Kier employee being racist. Didn't know you were the thread police all of a suddenExactly mate. It’s laughable on a thread about Man City fans
Well I found your comment just as weird. What do you mean by "keep an eye", are you planning to do it yourself or do you want government institutions to do it?What a weird response
Ah, there it is. We know what kind of person you are. Won't be listening to anything you have to say on the matter then.If the person is doing their job professionally then what do I care? If their behaviour is racist then that's illegal and a police matter, which should be reported to the police.
Well that's enough for me then.I know he's racist from what I've seen. Whether it's enough proof for anything to happen I'll leave up to someone else.
It clearly says the employers. Can't quite believe the idiocy going on hereWell I found your comment just as weird. What do you mean by "keep an eye", are you planning to do it yourself or do you want government institutions to do it?
The police are unlikely to take any action over it. It’s pretty tame compared to some of the far right nationalists postIf the person is doing their job professionally then what do I care? If their behaviour is racist then that's illegal and a police matter, which should be reported to the police.
