I don't see how anything I've said here could possibly be perceived to be even remotely racist.

I think it was more that you supported Phasmid with:
Seriously, I think there has just been a lot of misunderstanding and emotional responses. I don't think anyone is to blame really.

A misunderstanding, possibly. But comparisons to Hitler? Come on, really?
I've seen worse. People say silly things when they are very offended. Especially if they feel victimised.

And if such a person feels perpetually victimised?
Yes...sorry is that a rhetorical question?

what the hell?
first i thank madhuri for trying to explain what i meant by my post, she's the only one with a brain around here. unlike the rest.
you guys really have issues, don't let your arrogance get in your way of understanding, OK.
my statement about having to go to the shops was me saying that i have come to live here, so i can't complain that there are women at the cashier, it is a must for me to get food, so i have to go and buy it, no matter if the cashier is a male or a female.
how hard was that to understand? geez use your brains next time, don't promote racism and hatred out of post you have no understanding of?
i did say that the man the OP speaks of has over reacted, then you recon i would say that all cashiers must be males just cos i can't talk to a female?
am i talking to children?

No but you are acting like one. Yes it was a misunderstanding but you are at fault just as much as them for perpetuating it and automatically assuming they are being racist and then comparing them to Hitler. Remember never assume, it makes an *** of you and me.

i wasn't the one assuming. and it's made an *** of them not me, you can see their previous converstations with me and they have always "innocently" missunderstood my posts.
i did say that i do not agree to what the man had done, about complaining to his neighbour, and my statement was very clear, that i had to go to the shops even though i have to speak to a female at the cashier.
you didn't think they were being racist? well culturacists (don't if it's an actuall word) would probably fit better
From this topic the misunderstanding seems to stem from the fact you are not a native English speaker (not holding this against you I wish I was that bi-lingual). But neither party tried to redress the problem that you might simply be a misunderstanding. From reading your posts I get the same impression as they seem to have got initially about what you were saying. Next time you would all save a lot of trouble by making sure you know what the other person means.

so they should ask then and not make assumptions out of thin air.

Perhaps Eselam could rent you as an interpreter so that you could explain his characteristically inane statements.

here comes father heathens back up.
batman and robin join forces.
the ignorance level goes higher now.
anything else Ymir?
We should really be trying to patch things up here people. Both sides made a mistake and both realise it. Can't we all just forget about it?

Ez, have you ever wondered why people always seem to misunderstand what you are meaning?
Gharib

did you think of that all by yourself?
i was going to frubal you for it, but i know you didn't think of it all by yourself.
do you really think i will get angry about cheap shots such as that?
yeah i am not perfect at english, so?

Let's see how you feel when you have been around Ez for a few months, lol.

Oh good grief, Ez. SINCE your command of English is not great you should be especially careful about what you say and how you say it, knowing full well that you may be misunderstood.
