Anyone remember when David Baddiel went full black face in a comedy routine about the ex-footballer Jason Lee?

Yep the BBC let more than one person mock Jason Lee with black face paint and mocking his looks none of them have ever apologised it’s just hypocrisy!

@SocialSchism Жыл бұрын

Yeah and he’s apologised for it a load of times over the years….

@tomboulton8847 Жыл бұрын

@@SocialSchism Its true! Baddiel sort of apologised to Jason Lee in his book. So if Jason Lee wants to see the apology all he has to do is buy the book of the person who repeatedly racially abused him and ruined his career, trawl through chapter after chapter of mindless self-serving drivel in the hope he might eventually find the exact sentence 👍🏻

CleverCat I thought it wasn’t so endemic anymore until the George Galloway issues last year! I wasn’t aware of how bad antisemitism was until I started reading political social media 😔

Cheryl Yes! Consider Rebecca Long Bailey’s “blind spot” on the blatant antisemitism in that article that she retweeted!?! It’s become so commonplace for the hard-left that they don’t even realise how wrong it is to throw anti-Jewish old tropes into ANY subject! So...”Black Lives Matter”, police brutality is racist AND “the Jews are secretly behind it!”... AND far-left talking-heads immediately defend it as “legitimate criticism of Israel”, NO!! The act of linking EVERYTHING to this shady cabal which is behind things is blatantly antisemetic!!

Got mixed feelings about him now as Antisemitism is disgusting. A Chelsea fan Sam Mole got taken to court over abusing another chelsea fan with it on Twitter, but got off as the Tweets although traced to his account. Were posted while he was on holiday in Austraia. So judge had to let him off. Ironically his club benefit from a billionaire Jewish owner. But as a Chelsea fan pointed out Baddiel made black footballer Jason Lee's life harder as a player as he Badeiel blacked up to mimic him. With a pineapple on his head taunt. He suffered depression over it. Which in turn a black Chelsea fan. Jerome Bailey got taunted by a couple of Chelsea racists with the same jibe. Took Jerome a long while for Chelsea to investigate and ban the racists.

@SIXITHS Жыл бұрын

This is also Baddiel: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eM54pJeexKjNZZs.html His objection is not to racism itself, just when it is directed against him. The only reason he even apologised to Jason Lee at all is because he wanted to make this programme and it was pointed out to him how absurd it would be not to address Baddiel's own history of racist abuse.

To call Baddiel a satirist is a prime example of reductio ad absurdum - he is a sell out - he was bought years ago. He is paid far too much - he will never challenge the establishment - he is part and parcel of it.
