Oh concrete thinking. Explains it.

No. Not disagreeing with me about a certain issue does not make you a homophobe, but a clear line whether it being in favour of Musk allowing homophobic material on twitter to this issue is suggestive that you have swallowed the Kool aid as the Americans you so clearly admire are fond of saying.

Until you say something that makes me think you are not a homophobe I will continue to think that. After all, I don't know you, I can only make an assessment on the comments you write.

Pussy, pussy - grab em by the pussy.

Hitler rehabilitation is real and growing thing on social media. Included are many influencers with large followings. As you say, scary.

Wet and windy. The rain is very welcome, after months of drought.

Clearly you are free to post whatever nonsense you wish. I'm not going to stop you, and if you really knew me, you would know that was the case anyway as I have never called for the removal of anyone from this board. Anyway, as a homophobe, you've not taken your training wheels off yet.

It is strange that a rainbow crossing that has been peacefully in existence since 2017 has suddenly become so dangerous despite decreasing the number of incidents. You'd almost think that the people who painted over it had a political motive.

Pussy, pussy, grab em by the pussy.

Right-o. Disagreement with you makes me a homophobe. The removal of a political symbol and a return to conformity with statutory safety requirements is politically motivated, but the political symbol was not. And telling me to "leave the room" was not suggesting I should stop posting.

I don't know you. I try to confine my comments to what you write.

I did not watch the video but I did read the opinion of the RNIB I posted earlier.

You should find out about Chesterton's Fence. Road markings are no place for memorials to anything, even if they don't signal a political point of view, which in my opinion, this did, or put disabled people at risk.

I'll comment if and when I want to, thanks, unless you'd like to remove me from the forum for holding an opinion different from yours?

As already highlighted (you obviously couldn't be bothered to watch it), crossings with coloured themes make the roads safer. So I'm on the side of people with impaired vision and you aren't. Now perhaps the handmaid for Trump could kindly leave the room.

I suspect historians rarely say that it's not a valid historical question, if at all, and I suspect this is just you making historians in your own image. If history is the question 'what happened' then everything is valid and there is no prior commitment to naturalism. Just 'What happened'.

Even if a historian actually said it was an invalid historical question we wouldn't know because you never provide citations.

I don't need a citation to point out that the resurrection is a non-naturalistic claim - it is a supernatural claim of 'God Did It'. If you believe it actually 'happened' then it is for you to explain how you've established this as a matter of historical  fact - but all you have is a bunch of anecdotes that don't stand much scrutiny (because they have no substantive provenance).

That some people said 'x happened', especially where 'x' is a fantastical claim, isn't sufficient to establish that 'x' did indeed happen and can be taken as being historical fact - unless of course you're highly credulous and/or you have an prior emotional commitment to the claim being true.

Anyway - it was you who was scampering off to consult 'the professionals': how is that going?

Road markings are no place for a memorial to anything. They are there for a reason, and it's not virtue signalling.
Presumably you're fine with people with impaired vision being put at risk? Fuck off.

Memorials to people shot dead for being gay is not politicall messaging or posturing. Fuck off.

You said that as if it were a good thing.I suspect historians rarely say that it's not a valid historical question, if at all, and I suspect this is just you making historians in your own image. If history is the question 'what happened' then everything is valid and there is no prior commitment to naturalism. Just 'What happened'.

Even if a historian actually said it was an invalid historical question we wouldn't know because you never provide citations.
In fact, you have yet to cite one historian who is prepared to consider claims of supernatural intervention in history.
