Has The PC Brigade Killed Off Any Future BB?

How will all this affect future BB - Celeb or other?

Will the 'white' contestants feel that they can no longer have a disagreement or dislike for any 'ethnic' contestant for fear of a Jade type backlash? Will BB decide not to put any 'ethnic minorities' in house? Will we then have a cry from the PC brigade that BB are being 'racist' for not doing so?

May be next time BB should have all bar one 'white' person in the house and the rest of 'ethnic minority' decent and see how they all get on.

Let's see the uproar when the said 'token white' dishes up a large plate of Spam Fritters, Mushy Peas & Chips ("cos I ain't keen on bleedin' rice and blackeye peas, am I") and watch them complain that it's pink in the middle!!!

This is not meant as a 'racist post', just a diabolical one.

    Let's just stick Big Ron Atkinson and Nick Griffin in the next CBB house, if there is one. Is that what you want?

    No! JADE has with JADES actions
    JADE being a racist
    JADE being a bully

    So nothing to with us and loads to do with her.

    Where do the PC Brigade hold their meetings?

    Do they have a published membership, balance sheet etc.?

    Are they a company, charity or military organisation?

    OP, please tell me. I've been asking these questions for years and I've yet to receive a response.

    Alternatively, they could just be a figment of the imagination of the less tolerant in society, a creation to save making a real argument.

    Surely not?

    Surely you cannot seriously label anyone who was appalled by the kind of behaviour we witnessed this week in the CBB house "the PC Brigade"!!!!!!!!!!!!

    If you are I find that completely astounding. I am a huge fan of some unpolitically correct comedy but not a fan of racist remarks or bullying. :mad:

    And I would also like to know where I purchase these race cards we allegedly keep on playing too. Are they like an ordinary pack of cards or more like Tarot cards?

    Three posts in, Josie, and a marriage proposal. You don't muck about do you? :D

    'PC Brigade' - essential part of every racist's vocabulary :)

    I'll go with your "figment of the imagination" option, I reckon.

    I have to laugh. the pc brigade. but i love their little outfits, and they do such dinky things with those batons and all.

    but seriously, this is a diabolical post. your joke, if it is a joke, is just depressingly similar to the rank and bitter outpourings of people who just can't accept that a lot of people share a basic sense of right and wrong, nothing to do with political correctness, and everything to do with a human correctness.

    All this is just a refusal by a large number of ordinary people to accept that we should celebrate, reward or otherwise sanction ignorance, in any form or shape. When you belittle it as political correctness you are barking not only up the wrong tree, but up no tree at all.

    It seems to me that they have guaranteed that any future house mates who have a problem with a black one will now be persecuted on-line and in the media for being a raciest. :mad:

    In BB6 there was a definite black/white divide, but no one took much notice, even though it was mentioned several times by various HMs.

    I don't believe that. Maxwell was a halfwit who really laid into Kemal and Science. But no one ever suggested he was a racist, because, for all his faults, he clearly wasn't (Saskia's views were a bit dubious though, as I recall).

    Rubbish - you can criticise people up to the eyeballs, it's just that, you know, in the 21st century, most people look down on bringing race into it. It's fine to call someone boring or annoying or anything else. Just don't bring race into it.
