    I’ve just had a look, to be fair the racists are being given a good bashing and are outnumbered considerably.

    Hopefully you can have more than 6 if they all normally live in the same house - otherwise it'll be a bad time for some poor "volunteer" who has to leave home for Christmas :)

    If you think Twitter is bad, a lot of the really nasty accounts left for Parler - which appears to be a right-wing circle jerk.

    Imagine being the least liked kid who has to sit in the garden so the family dog can stay inside.

    I've heard of parler games but may be getting confuddled which at my age is not surprising

    I packed it in a few months ago, it’s full of hatred and was getting me down. Threads like this are exactly why I gave up on it.

    Bang on, Trev. The issue is with the racist scumbags and their vile, disgusting comments they're making on Twitter. Thankfully, there's plenty of folk ripping the racists to bits on there, too.

    I've just watched the short video of the ad and my first reaction was that it made me smile. I'm not sure why, it just did.

    What does fill me with great sadness is not that there are people out there who make comments as they have and will plead that they absolutely aren't racists, but that I now fully expect them. That they are now "normal" and typical.
