Yes, I just cooked some bacon and the frying pan is now racist.

Many convicts were British, they then became australians. So it's clearly not apt to call British people convicts when they weren't the ones caught.

So because a media outlet thinks something is OK, it must be OK?
I'm not the one who's cooked.

They moved here permanently and had descendants who lived here for hundreds of years. Are you now suggesting that after generations these people aren't australians?

When did Facebook say it was OK?
you said facebook looks at pom being offensive so why you listen to them and not mainstream media who commonly use the term pom ? point being they arent the offence police as everyone sees things differently and not just because you want to play judge and jury
So, when did they say it was OK?

I used facebook as one example of a place where they have decided it's racist.
do you think facebook have a good record in determining righteousness and setting a good standard ? i still find it puzzling the way you go on about others that you are offended by the term pom
I may not be perfect but I'm still the closest I have ever come across

I don't know about their record in determining righteousness.


How do I go on about others?


I have previously shown it's a derogatory and racist phrase, why wouldn't I be offended by it?

Well after beating the English for once at something, I guess your morale would be quite high.

We'll leave that to random french footballers.

Firstly he said started but the first fleet not only had convicts it also had just as many free settlers.
Bit of a worrying trend is you are a bit like Michael and latoya Jackson, never seen together are you one and the same???

Correct, no free settlers. Convicts came & did their " time " and were freed to settle. Here endeth the lesson.
