Funny how things change because he was kinda right and I was just being righteous. We would have gone through on away goals but I still wouldn't have dobbed him in though. He was a regular on the gay scene in Edinburgh when he played for hearts I recall him but our paths didn’t cross . He really didn’t have a chance in life as he was black , gay , brought up in a white foster family , abandoned by his birth family , treated like shit by his brother John ( he will be judged one day ) and unfortunately was in a profession which was virulently homophobic back then . He was a gambler too . I saw him now and again in the bookies and the old Stanley casino Edited April 6 by JudyJudyJudy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woke is an adjective derived from African-American Vernacular English (AAVE) meaning "alert to racial prejudice and discrimination".[1][2] Beginning in the 2010s, it came to encompass a broader awareness of social inequalities such as racial injustice, sexism, and denial of LGBT rights. Woke has also been used as shorthand for some ideas of the American Left involving identity politics and social justice, such as white privilege and reparations for slavery in the United States.[3][4][5] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still see the same guys in the wheatfield nowadays and they must be in their late 60s or 70s now. I'd like to think they have grown out of it but if not they at least have the presence of mind not to display their prejudice in public any more.

Tbf you'd need to be a complete nutter to shout or sing some of the stuff that got bandied about back then. It's funny how folk complain about the state of things.

I'm glad that we don't hear that racist shite at the football. Society has largely moved on from those days but this board demonstrates that prejudice and intolerance hasn't gone away. There will always be people with a need to attack communities they fear or don't approve of. It's just the targets that change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JudyJudyJudy Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 (edited) Great turnout for the “ women won’t whesh” event yesterday at the mound . I would have went but I was in Paisley . The event was marred by a loud mob who tried to prevent women speaking about their views and experiences . But none the less it was a success and some great speeches . Well done women .

luckydug Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 The only people who have anything to fear from HCA are the people who should have something to fear. Probably explains the hysteria on here.

Ulysses Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 12 minutes ago, luckydug said: The only people who have anything to fear from HCA are the people who should have something to fear. Probably explains the hysteria on here. Perhaps social media will be properly moderated now. The key to getting social media moderated properly isn't "hate crime" legislation. All that needs to happen is to change the law so that social media companies are treated in the same way as any other publishers. They permit things to be published on their platforms. If there's anything unlawful in what's published, the responsibility for that should fall on the platform owner as much as on the writer. That's the way it's done for newspapers, TV and radio. There's no reason why social media should be any different. You'd see the town getting cleaned up pretty quickly if that happened, with no need for anything like the HCA. But that'll never happen.
