Michael Jackson vs The Morris Men

[Suntan Sid]

In the, wacky, world we inhabit you may have noticed, earlier in the week, that someone was 'offended' by Morris dancers "blacking up" for a performance.
I have a sneaking suspicion they weren't actually 'offended' at all, but who am i to judge.
Yesterday, someone else was 'offended' when it was announced that someone not black, (presumably white), was going to play Wacko Jacko in a biopic.
Of course what the 'offended' failed to visualise, in this case, was that if a black person was to play the world's most famous fruit loop they'd have to "white up" to get the authentic, "Whacko" look!

My irony meter actually did explode, after it passed 11 and started heading towards 12, I'll have to buy a replacement, FFS!

It's like how in Asterix the white characters have big noses, and the black characters have big noses/lips which's racist.

These people are always offended, but the fucking press, in it's need for stories 24/7, highlights it and tries to make it out as the normal opinion of everyone.

That utter bellend professor from Oxford Uni who reported Amber Rudd to the police over hate crime on her Tory conference speech is the epitome, and hence why the 'spike' in hate crime has all of a sudden appeared, it's the biggest load of bollocks ever and moderate leavers have had to fend off attacks from remainers for so called causing all this, when it was a simple example of people taking advantage of the system.
