To be fair, Waitrose is just like that.
Straight from the 'GREAT BRITIAN MEMES - IF U DONT LIKE ARE COUNTRY GET OUT' facebook group.
That's why its such a great place to shop!
Nah, too subtle for them. They prefer this kind of stuff:

Seems mostly the unpleasant righties that need safe spaces these days. Constant bitter raging about society leaving them behind. Or maybe thats just on here.......
I mean, this is demonstrably untrue. Just using your posts, you whinge pretty much weekly about righties on here. Everything is their fault etc.
Plenty of lefties on here crying daily about the unfairness of society and the people in power. Hell, even those who consider themselves centrists do it. How often do posters on both sides resort to insults shortly after a new debate starts over in SC? There are moderator warnings in pretty much every thread that goes on for longer than a few pages.
It's been said many a time but as soon as one side stops blaming the other for all of the issues in society, then fairer and more honests debates can be had.

Oh, you've noticed that too?
It seems like we have people who have never been slaves blaming people who were never slave owners for treating the slaves they never owned as sub-human.

Its demonstrably true, on here. Constant whining about not being allowed to be racist anymore. Constant denial of being a bit racist. Its endless.
Once they die out the world will be a nicer place.

That's some leap. You've gone from unpleasant righties to racists within a post, you should have just thrown that term in originally if that's what you meant. Growing up and living in the NE, I've witnessed plenty of genuine racism from people who voted left or hold primarily leftist views.
There's also constant whining from the other side where they keep repeating that term as if it will stick without being able to explain why someone's view is racist. A poster in SC throws it around like birdseed.
It's a pretty sad state of affairs if your view is the general consensus of this forum now. It's essentially saying that racism is tolerated here.

I can get a "Special Discount" at Waitrose!
Why was I never told?
I really should write to their Head of Advertising today to say that s/he is failing to publicise a very important USP which will appeal to a huge majority of the population.
I think you're conflating race with class.

Black privilege: You may only be stopped by police if you are white. Source: Dawn Butler.
Filming the interaction as well. In my youth, we're that possible, filming the police would make them more likely to consider you a suspect.
You can only use 'source' if it is.
You cant use it to make up things and then attribute them to people.

She Tweets in capitals that she's been stopped with "more details to follow" and announces that she's filmed it, ok? I mean she was mildly inconvenienced, the absolute horror.
It also turns out the driver of the vehicle was white. What a clown of a woman.
I think there's the very real risk that the Police are going to be afraid to actually investigate suspects if they're black in case they suddenly become a news story when they make a mistake.

I didn't use quotations marks, so alas, you are wrong.
She didnt say anything like what you claimed she did.

Stop taking it so literally.
How do expect to have a serious and constructive discussion about how to deal with racism if you're just lying and trying to create division by assigning a position to her that is untrue and acts like a dog whistle to racists?
