100% not belittling it

Probably not intentionally but each time you seek to compare, wholly unacceptable, name calling with actual racism that is what you are effectively doing.

Equally each time you return to your regular hobby horse of the BBC’s attitude to ‘cultural diversity’ and your suggestion that it over indulges in ‘positive discrimination’...the effect is the same.

As a point of order it might be useful to introduce some facts into the argument here. Offcom’s most recent research into BBC1 and BBC2’s peak time content analysis revealed that, in 2018, just 12.5% of the BBC’s TV population was made up of ‘minority ethnics’.

Interestingly the same source revealed that comparative gender figures were 62% male compared with 38% female. Maybe you need to rethink your target.

As you are not Swale I’ll accept your factual info. Have you fathomed doughnutting yet? Clearly one other person here (adi) knew the word and I think agreed the point, ironically I was alerted to it by the daughter of one of the 38% you refer to above.
