PC Knee Jerk Madness
Of course it is.
There was no need to delete it: that kind of foolish racism was par for the course in the 1970s and deleting it wipes that record clean.
More importantly, deleting and withdrawing it foolishly plays into the hands of those who like to get outraged at people’s outrage. Both sides are as bad as each other.
As violet to succinctly put it - a knee jerk reaction to a knee jerk reaction.
If people scratched beneath the surface of these issues a bit more and realised there was nuance and shades of grey to issues people are trying to oversimplify, the whole culture war bollocks would disappear and people would stop being angry all the time.

How do you feel about 440 correcting exactly the same word?
I allowed a few posters to use the same words and phrases for the same reason.

I may just have understood one of your posts. I assume this is in reference to Elvis dying on the toilet!
I think you may think in a different world as well as being in your own.
k440, something to do when you're pissed.
Hasn't that been Playboys downfall? his shockingly racist journals (aka his public diatribes on Khmer440) belittling rice w*gs and naggers leaving him unhireable in a modern world?

Freedom is not a state. It is an act. It is not some enchanted garden perched high on a distant plateau.. Freedom is a continuous action we all must take, and each generation must do its part to create an even more fair, more just society.-John Lewis
