If you've watched the documentary black and white by Ashley Banjo you will see what I mean.

This man is the most racist man I've seen on TV in recent years.

He's a disgrace.

That's incredibly racist language you've used! I've reported you for using racist language. If I knew who your employer was I'd complain to them too.

I'm working class & my parents never ever liked JD, RCB, & especially not Bernard Manning.
In fact they really disapproved of them and I was definitely not allowed to watch or go and see anything crude, racist or sexist like that.
So we definitely had cancel culture in our home!!

Now if I go on a date I will ask the man which type of comedy he enjoys... anything racist and he's out the door.

You have to say one thing for the likes of RCB - if they didn't exist you wouldn't know who to avoid!!

@Snoozysnoozy
I am quite obviously quoting from the article that was linked above at what RCB said.
I will delete my own post to avoid any misunderstanding. But let me take the bones of it and repeat it here, without what Roy Chubby Brown continually says...

I've reported my own post, so no need for you to report me.

"But the whole point is... he normalises it. I can't believe posters are defending him or JD in the name of 'cancel culture'.
So a group of friends go to see RCB... they split their sides laughing at him shouting the N word, the P word and all that disgusting shit...
Then off they go to the local pub round the corner after the show.. and you can bet your bottom dollar, they'll be having a laugh about this joke, that joke and wasn't it hilarious when he said this and that... all repeated and laughed at in loud voices oblivious to who's around. Then they got home and tell her indoors about it, and off to work they go repeating the same shit next day.
It's normalising it.

What I find funny though... are posters on here making out it's all just a laugh, and RCB is a gentleman, JD too no doubt. Nah... they're disgusting racists"

Believe it or not but obviously I understood. The point is that "cancel culture" does not differentiate, or understand nuance or context.

Maybe it's better to comment on the content of my original post rather than try and make a point that missed the mark totally!
