If it’s not broken – don’t fix it.
If you don’t mean it – don’t say it.

Easy.

I am with you 100% Daphne. I am just trying to differentiate between private and professional/public life.

So your friend is being disciplined for making racist remarks, his career and livelihood are at risk of being destroyed, he has been humiliated on the national media and yet it is cause for a “good laugh within the klikka”?

I am glad I am not part of your “klikka”. With klikkas like these, who needs enemies?

[Daphne – Klikkek are malicious and malevolent, didn’t you know? That’s one reason I can’t stand them. They don’t function as a support system but as a policing/punishment system.]

I did not say “it is all right”. I said “if he does not bring his beliefs and attitude to the work place, then the airline should not interfere”.

That is nothing but an act of the nanny state. How far will you go? Are you going to monitor people’s marital life to see whether they’re abusers; check their political affiliations to see whether they vote far right?

[Daphne – Racism and misogyny pose a general threat to others, Joe. That’s where the line is drawn. Not being a woman, you have no direct experience of how stressful it is to have to work with a misogynist in the office, still less a misogynist as your superior, or sit round a boardroom table for a meeting with men who literally behave as though you are invisible and that your views are somehow to be discarded. I always imagine what it must be like for black people, or Chinese people, having to work with that level of hatred and suspicion.]
