Another Delta storm in a teacup : Comments

By Dilan Thampapillai, published 20/5/2013

Comedian Aamer Rahman probably took things too far by referring to Delta as 'stupid and racist'.

As a test I asked two friends about Rahman's gripe that Delta Goodrem was 'stupid and racist'.

Their opinion was divided.

One said that "Delta is not stupid" whilst the other said "She is not racist."

It is possible Pakistan's Imran Khan believes this matter is also Britain's fault.

saussie,
That remark is just so uncanny for me as only this morning I was talking to an african chap who said that the religious warriors are hoping PC continues to rule the West for it is PC that affords them the opportunities to keep on going.

The word "Racist" doesn't mean hatred of another race, Leon Trotsky coined the word in his history of the Russian revolution to illustrate his point about how ignorance and adherence to tradition (Slavophilia) retarded the progress of the Russian people, how a lack of freedom under the governance of the church and the Germanic monarchy bred people with narrow minds and a limited capacity to exercise their own free will. Trotsky closes the paragraph with the observation that Marx had emphatically defeated the arguments in support of the old regimes and put to rest the protestation of those "Racists".
