it gets worseGod your at it too now!
i don't think you need to undermine your criticism of pk by taking the mickey out of people with lisps.
Are you less of a 'man' because you refuse to explain what you meant when you called people 'niggers' earlier in the thread and why, even though you used it as an insult, you meant no malice?
it gets worse
This was clearly the case.
a pathetic false display of outrage in order to divert away from the topic that dare not speak its name.
I'd have thought you'd recognise such a classic quote from english literature. Should have used the quote marks I guess
What? Why are you speaking in code?
pot meet kettle
aaah, dont we justy love pk's rank hypocrisy. big hard pk, resolute defender of womens rights (but only against 'pakis')
What a worthless human being he is.
No spic will get near his chick
In the context, not isolated as you have presented it, a term of endearment that only a silly girl would take offence to... and only someone too scared to approach the topic would seize upon and leap up and down in a pathetic false display of outrage in order to divert away from the topic that dare not speak its name.
I suggest Mark Twain or Iceberg Slim for context, but no doubt you will state that I am the wrong skin colour to use such a word even in obvious jest, as it clearly was in the context.
Indeed. Also, while it is clearly important to know what agenda someone has, the fact they have that agenda doesn't mean their research is worthless. In reality, of course, everyone has some kind of agenda – otherwise they would not know how to decide what to research or how to research it.
Oh and I suppose only an amazing, worldly, open, empathetic, big, strong, intellectual male such as your self would conclude that:
1. We can not read that there was no context for you calling posters on this thread niggers and you meant to insult with it.
2. My pulling you up on it and asking you to explain your usage means that I am jumping up and down outraged as opposed to not letting you wriggle out of it.
3. That myself or anyone on this thread is in the least bit fooled by you song and dance, casually sexist, disengenuous and reactionary attempts to feign superiority whilst simultaneously and repeatedly refusing to engage on aspects of this discussion which have shown you to have an agenda/position that you are clearly uncomfortable exposing with conviction or in full.
Here I refer again to 'our White girls' and highlight the fact that although you have made this comment you lack the gumption or the courage to answer the questions asked of you or explain the comment itself.
...and if all of the above were not enough you are now attempting to give yourself context where their is none by alikening your usage here to be literary.
Ah yes and your claim to have been jesting has been noted too, plus you quick-step reverse tactic of claiming that I am in some way attacking you because of your skin colour, nothing new, and true to form with your type. You are a pompus disingenuos bigot.
Pity you didn't make that clear earlier in your claims about Glass, then.Fucks sake, nowhere did I say it was MORE religious than anywhere else in the UK, only more religious back in early 19th century than today. On a side point with no relation to the thread topic.
Glass didn't "pre-empt Marx in communist practice".What Glass's religion had to do with the fact that he pre-empted Marx in communist practice is also a bit of a mystery to me, but there we are.
I think...

Glass didn't "pre-empt Marx in communist practice".
What we know about Glass (R4 did a very good biographical feature on him a couple of years back, btw. Doesn't look like it's available for iplayer yet, though) is that his "commune" was originally a shared possession of the three original male inhabitants of the island, and that Glass assumed ownership rights from the other two original male (and I'm emphasising that word deliberately) inhabitants when they left Tristan de Cunha. New (male) settlers arrived, and wives were purchased from another island. Glass acted as the patriarch of the settlement up until his death.
So, we have a few VERY salient points that reveal that what Glass practiced wasn't and couldn't have been communism, those being:
Women as subservient to men.
Himself as the unelected final arbiter of everything on the island.
Women treated as the property of the males.
Private property still existed.
Now, I'm sure you've read the Communist Manifesto, and I'm sure you'll admit (probably after a lot of blustering) that what Glass practiced wasn't even "primitive communism" such as the diggers wanted 150 years previously, let alone anything akin to Marx. It was a plain, old-fashioned "tribal" hierarchy.
I think that this thread has been irretrievably derailed.
Lol. How the fuck was it communism? You may as well say the Amish are communists.

Another thread.
No, unless a moderator takes it away from the naughty kids and locks it (the intention of the likes of belboid and Proper Tidy).
I'd wager that I'm the only one on this thread to have really suffered at the hands of 'traditional' islamic values.
