S********T : what is it like?

I think he would be capable of understanding but I don't think he deserves anyone spending any time or effort on him.
 
I don't care about aspie stubbornness really. What happened was that his brand of racism isn't acceptable to the posters here. Nor should JHE's be. Nor his writing of people with aspergers as creatures unable to act for themselves stuff. But let's get that one off this thread - which is one where a racist who opposed racism has been exposed. And JHE revealed too much.

It tends to be a term that a significant number of people with aspergers use for themselves. for some it is their prefered 'label' for most (i think) it is acceptable, some don't like it and some loathe it and consider it infantile. shock-horror, aspies aren't all alike;)

So - best avoided unless you know the person you're talking to or referring to is happy with it?
 
I've only seen his name crop up in relation to immigration threads where his username tends to stick out like a sore thumb much as thedockerslad did too tbh.

Just wondered if you ever, praps, for one moment, just sat back and thought, wooah! This thread's proposition and the sorts of people/posts its attracting is fucking racist shit?

It's kind of dumb given who is responsible for the majority of modern music from blues, jazz through to electronic music. Boiling the contribution of black people to music down to 'hip hop' is patently ridiculous.

Is it right that you know him in real life? Has he ever struck you as being a racist knobhead? Or is he just incredibly naive?

not met him, but I've spent a lot of time talking by Pm. and no, I didn't get any indicator he was racist and I don't think he believes he is.

Cornwall is very white. Although those who are visibly ethnic minority have discussed one or 2 incidents with a clearly racist subtext, they also mentioned how unusual that was compared to experiences in the home counties (i worked a truro town center old boys bar the night of pride and I heard a delightful range of poof jokes, but they also host gay dating nights in their function room). Some of the language used by some of the older folk in particular is a long way from being terms I'd use. there tends not to be genuine malice behind that, but sometimes a concern about something different coming down here, changing the area to be more like london. it's a low level parochialism rather than bigotry and it does tend to be found a lot more in the older folks. but attitudes tend to be aimed at change in general, not victimisation of individuals. and Cornwall does tend to be far more accepting of, for example, people with disabilities than a lot of other places. Reason I'm saying this is that I'm fairly certain his attitudes are a product of this kind of thing.

Citizen66 - he posts on shitfront and doesn't seem to think there is any issue with it. He was found to have posted racist nonsense.

MP returned and said that he felt he had been treated unfairly. He has been told why he has not been treated unfairly and has been told to fuck off.

JHE tried to say we were bullying him because of his aspergers. It was pointed out that having aspergers is not synonymous with being a cunt.

personally, I do use it unless I was asked not to. but I live with 2 aspies. so anyone calling me out on it can soon be told I use their term for themselves and no offence intended. your mileage my vary.
 
because he said so. and because i (and a couple of others on here) knew him from what used to be an anti-racist site.
