    If you saw an add that said ''No irish'' would it bother you?

    It wouldn't bother me, i'd just find a new one to buy.

    Mountain out of molehill.

    Racism is everywhere, I fail to see why you're so surprised.

    Are Polish a race? Or a nationality? Either way its his car. If he wants to limit the buys its his loss probably. OP please slit your wrists for being a PC shítlord.

    I said it wouldn't bother me if somebody refused to sell me something for being Irish.

    I never said it was acceptable you moron.

    It's his car he can do what he wants with it. He's a dîck, but don't see the point of the thread.

    Why would it?

    It's one person selling something I want.

    I'll easily find it elsewhere.

    The point is phoney righteous indignation, moral grandstanding and general PC right-onism. It's in fashion man, though looking decidedly old all of a sudden if you are paying attention.

    Look at the broader picture. What if that one person was head of Google and he said nah f*ck the Irish, they can use ask jeeves.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,970 ✭✭✭Lenin Skynard


    Two thousand euros to buy an old **** heap from a racist.

    Whatever about the rights and wrongs of being a racist idiot, that moron ain't selling that car.

    You're missing my point.

    I'm dealing with a single person that is independently selling an item.

    Why the fcuk would I care?

    He doesn't have to sell it to anyone he doesn't want to and certainly not below a price he feels is fair, but wait a make a dick of yourself. He does know his phone number is on the ad, and the publicity of this may cause him to have to get a new phone number.

    I have met loads of Polish people here and they all seem nice to me and I wasn't even aware of the stereotype he mentioned.

    Are Polish people shrewd car dealers? Well if so, Good for them.

    Only three posts to use the nothing-term "PC". Can you be PC about PC or how does it work? The only other time I hear this term outside of this forum is from the likes of Jim Davidson and other outdated and widely condemned old-timey british seaside comedians to justify racism.

    It's not ok to be openly racist in an ad, and as soon as the people that run the site see it, they'll take it down. And rightly so.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,689 ✭✭✭Karl Stein


    I don't think Donedeal.ie or indeed any self-respecting business will allow knobs like that to keep xenophobic adverts on their site.

    I deserved that. I'm just in awe of how awesome you are for not caring what anyone thinks.

    Please stop telling people what to say and think. Its a few magnitudes worse than the group-think nonsense above. Really its down right unpatriotic.

    Initially confused, car in mint condition but no polish, I was thinking along lines of a matte finish, very unusual for a car.

    This hilarious misunderstanding could easily have been avoided if only the gentleman had used a capital letter to slag off an entire nation.

    You're a naughty one. I'm not sure if you were spanked too little or too often as a child. Hmm...

    Not being a racist =/= being edgy.

    I'd say you need to read a lot more than one book

    "no polish". That's just silly.

    If he gave the car a good polish and made it look nice and clean he might have a better chance of selling it.

    No. That's why racism and xenophobia are different things. The polish aren't a race.
