Nor is anti sematism. Which i do believe he was caught tweeting.

So if he finds the word Paki offensive then that's fine, i respect that. ( I don't use that word but obviously some do). Do you find being called a Brit offensive as i don't find being called an Aussie offensive. Which raises my point. Is it the word after the shortened term that seems so frequently added rather than the shortened name of their country?

Good to see Carey get a gig for the Aussies to. Looking forward to see how he performs. Was hoping for young Inglis to get the nod, but Carey deserves a crack.

Can't see how he gets in our best side.

Let’s be honest the whole match became farcical in the end

Now what i posted is as ignorant as what you posted. Ridiculous post Worksop.

For interests sakes though.
Paki is short for Pakistani
Aussie is short for Australian
Dane is short for Danish
Swede is short for Swedish
Argie for Argentina
Scot for Scottish.
Brit for British
Are any of those racist? Just wondering as one would think whatever word you use after the shortened version would probably be the deciding factor wouldn't it?
I don’t know what those starred out words are but if they are racists terms then no, I haven’t used them.

The rest of your post should go on a sticky.

Unbelievable

Are you being obtuse on purpose?

‘Brit’ or ‘Aussie’ isn’t used as an insult. ‘Paki’ is.

This isn’t difficult stuff to understand in 2021.

Not sure how anyone can come out too well in a 'who’s the more/least racist' pissing contest

No I don't find any other term you mention offensive, only the abbreviation for Pakistani. I am a bloke in my 40s and that term has always been highly offensive in the UK. Please, this is not directed at you Bones, but maybe another poster from down under should think carefully before posting such a disgusting term in the future.

The difference is that the P word (and you've gotta stop saying it, it's doing you no favours) has been used for a very long time by racists all over the country (and many other places, i'm sure) as a derogatory, catch all term for anyone from a certain part of the world. There is no other way to see it. It's racist. I'm not saying you are, but it is a racist term. Doesn't matter if it's been shortened from the country.

Obtuse, really. It was a genuine question in which the answer is quite obvious. But for all intense and purposes it is an abbreviation of the countries name.
If you feel uncomfortable discussing it then perhaps don't reply.

There no point in arguing about it.

All good Aki. Just making an observation of an abbreviation and posing a few little questions. No harm meant and no harm in posing questions. :p

I wont get personal like your good self. Adults having a discussion and every now and then a child wakes up and wants his bottle of milk, night night.

If this is what happens when there is more rain than cricket, we're in for a long series.

True.

Just think what crafting the Aussies will be able to knock up in the changing rooms. :D

Plenty of opportunities for more photo-ops too.
