And a few million dead Indians are probably thinking that it's long overdue, and it should be locked up forever

Are you aware that many non-Muslim Indians vote for the Tories these days given that many of their values (hard work, thrift, entrepreneurial etc) are aligned more closely to the Tories than Labour? Why is this important? Well Tories are far likelier to have more positive views of Churchill than the self-hating British left.

How many dead Indians do you think there would have been if Hitler won WW2?

True and Botha's children would have still ruled here in that case; descendants of true Aryans. You have a point comrade.

In my opinion, that is silly but what can we do? Blacks rule the world man - we just have to abide by new emperors.

Well, they are being threatened with dire consequences by government - why will they throw tantrum?

Exactly. Since you love to point it out, they're high IQ people, they play it smarter. They take it to court, win, then other people throw tantrums ...

Superbalist accused of disregarding Black Lives Matter, group apologises for being 'tone deaf'

Superbalist accused of disregarding Black Lives Matter, group apologises for being 'tone deaf'

Angry Superbalist customers have threatened to boycott the online retailer after allegations from employees that the company refused to respond to the Black Lives Matter movement and were prevented from speaking about it.

The group issued a public apology amid widespread condemnation on Thursday, admitting that it was initially tone deaf until staff took action.

“We were wrong in this regard and we would like to sincerely acknowledge and apologise unreservedly for that. We do not and will never in any respect condone any form of racism and discrimination,” the apology reads in part.

The company added that it has policies which prevent any form of discrimination and promotes the appointment of people of colour.

Codie Roelf, a software engineer at Superbalist, told TimesLIVE that the tension started last week when employees asked what the company's stance was on BLM.

This was in the wake of the murder of African American man George Floyd, by a white police officer in the US, and protests in the US and a number of other countries. The company's response was that it took no stance on the matter as it didn't affect the business directly.

After the meeting, there were rumours that the company would respond, but these were squashed when it didn't. Roelf says this prompted employees to jointly write to management to oppose its “no stance” attitude.

“A few people put together a message via [an internal communication channel] and tagged the two CEOs, Dave and Penny Cohen, asking for a response and explaining how they feel.

“We commented on it and said we aren't happy as employees [about the company not taking a stance on BLM] and we asked what message are we sending, since we use a lot of people of colour to promote the company.”

Roelf says there was no response from the CEOs and employees were allegedly blocked from using the platform.

I suspect you had a busy week. I was waiting for you ... especially since slavery was being discussed, and since you're now trying to bring it home for a few more cheap shots, how cheap do you wanna go? How cheap is a human life?

Imagine a world where a business doesn't have to have a stance on everything or anything.
Oh wait, but what's the new saying these people like to use?
Words are violence, and so is silence.

Stalin did far more than Churchill to steamroll the Nazis and his statues have been blown up and knocked down all over.

I'm not aware of Churchill's mass killings if you want to start comparing people.

Imagine raging every time a company distances itself from its own racist imagery. I remember this stuff on store shelves when I was a lad. Discontinued in 2002. Y'all have been triggered for a long time.

Yet you reply to my comment about people being triggered over Superbalist while you were talking about how everyone else is triggered.
Convenient.
