lifestooshort123 You are twisting my words.

When I say 'you' I mean the collective 'you'.. posters on that site, not 'you' singly.
That was not directed at you personally, it was directed at the posters of that site in general. I apologise if you read it wrong, I will rephrase it, changing the word 'you'
"Of course there aren't spats because MCers are with like minded people who actually see nothing wrong with the most vile of posts"

I can assure you, I did not mean you personally.

@AnneKipanki

I am going to hide this thread now.

Pot and kettle springs to mind.

An unfortunate or deliberate choice to leave your "Pot and Kettle" saying incomplete,,,, Anne? Biscuit
Roussette · 11/10/2020 16:53

How is that a personal attack?
I read that as a general" you rather than aimed at you personally.

Thank you. Exactly that.

And that is why I stopped posting on certain threads on here, one small word that could be twisted would be. However, many times I said that is not what I meant and well you know it... never worked, pile on ensued

Quaagars
Yes it is hilarious. I'm a shill apparently.
Paid by MN.
I've had that numerous times.

I'm actually an old grey haired woman sat in my kitchen faffing about on the internet lol

SimonJT · 11/10/2020 17:00

@Quaagars

It was also Ghanagirl they trolled on here by creating a Ghanagirl123 account

Now THAT I can believe as even though I didn't go over to that site and never would, I saw on the name for the new board poll that Patrick (the OP that asked for a new black board) a ghanagirl comment which was disgusting and had me confused as didn't think it was her.
Fucking awful people who are doing that.
Just.... what is wrong with them?

Weirdly they also made fake reddit PMs, now I haven’t been on reddit for a long time, but even I could see that they were fake PMs. Millie seems to be the racist ring leader, she also took the piss out of a black child having a traditional african hairstyle.
AnneKipanki · 11/10/2020 17:02

I meant the way you are behaving that’s all @EchoCardioGran .

AnneKipanki · 11/10/2020 17:02

And not “you “ as in you personally.

Quaagars · 11/10/2020 17:07

I meant the way you are behaving that’s all @EchoCardioGran**

And not “you “ as in you personally

You've just said the way you are behaving and referenced Echo.
Then it's not Echo personally?
What. make your mind up lol, or is that some kind of weird gotcha or pretending to not understand the difference between a general you and one to a person?
Anyway, how is EchoCardioGran "behaving?"
She's behaving exactly like other posts on this thread, why single just hers out?

AnneKipanki · 11/10/2020 17:08

You as in plural you not single you .

AnneKipanki · 11/10/2020 17:09

Not singling out @EchoCardioGran.

Aridane · 11/10/2020 17:10

I have no idea what this is all about. Are you talking about a different forum to thenReddit Mumsnet trolls one?

AnneKipanki · 11/10/2020 17:10

It was a “ reply “ to her as she asked something and I tried to explain what I meant.

EchoCardioGran · 11/10/2020 17:11

I saw that Simon. I also clocked the user name "Millie."
Same as young black woman singer back in the 60's. Milly Think it was picked as an in joke.
My own view, is a few of them on there are older white men. Grooming behaviour for sure, sucking others into their racism.

Rousette I saw you being demonised on there, absolute bat shit behaviour from some of them. I remembered your name on here. Perhaps we need a grey haired old lady board? Wink ( I've been on Gransnet for years, think I've posted twice there)

I'm not the one making remarks about pots and kettles AnneKipanki

Think about it what you said there, or to you genuinely not realise what you have said.?

The site is gone again. Weird way to run a site.

OP posts:
EchoCardioGran · 11/10/2020 17:14

"do you" that should say.

SimonJT · 11/10/2020 17:15

Buzzcat also posted a classic “if we’re so racist why did people from sub-saharan Africa come here”

Others also reducing black people by saying all they ever talk about is curried goat and rice and peas.

AnneKipanki · 11/10/2020 17:17

I have asked for the post to be deleted .
Apologies.
I had not realised it would be misinterpreted.

pigeonsfeather · 11/10/2020 17:18

Don’t you go anywhere rousette

The Corrie thread needs you Grin

Quietlyloud · 11/10/2020 17:19

Huh, seems we can talk about the “other” site when it’s to bitch about it? And this is why mumsnet gets the flack it does. Nothing is clear guidelines wise. Any time this site was mentioned the comment or post would be deleted yet it’s okay all of a sudden? I’m baffled. For what it’s worth I use both sites, I use MC a lot less though, I don’t doubt there was racism just that I personally didn’t see it because I stuck to one or two threads basically. One thing I like about the other site is how a conversation could flow and you could disagree without everything being deleted or having a thread full of holes.

Roussette · 11/10/2020 17:19

@EchoCardioGran
Thanks. Yes, it was horrendous for me and others.

I think we do need that grey haired old lady board lol.
I did join Gransnet when it first came out but I didn't quite gel over there, don't have GC yet felt too young even though I'm patently not!

EchoCardioGran · 11/10/2020 17:20

How am I "behaving"? AnneKipanki
I'm calling out a small group of racists attempting to groom others on a different forum.
You joined in making remarks about pots and kettles...( finish the meme in your head).and then announced you were hiding the thread.
But keep peeking back to tell me about how I am " behaving".

pigeonsfeather · 11/10/2020 17:20

I’m glad this thread isn’t deleted. I think it needs to stay.

For every time someone says there isn’t racism, racism isn’t a problem, all lives matter. Every single time.
