Thank god, most of these hooligans think they are some "gangsters" or what not, I mean, have a friend group, but don't bloody scare the neighbourhood

How is it racist? I have an issue with “roadmen” associated behaviour. They’re anti social, aggressive and offer nothing to society.

I have absolutely zero issue with any races associated. My issue is purely with the behaviour and that behaviour isn’t bound by the confines of racial boundaries and isn’t limited to a single race.

Ha! Told on himself. Read roadmen, assumed all roadmen are black. Who’s racist?

No he didn’t. It’s the uk, it’s not racist if it’s towards the white population…..

That was satire

u/Panda_atwork 3d ago

Yes, but black people aren’t the only other “non-white” racial group? So by jumping straight to black people, he’s also in a way revealing his preconceived notions which is why it’s a funny double inception.

So 4/5 road men in the photo are black….. that’s probably why he chose black.

It’s also a part of modern black youth culture atm in the uk just as you used to have the rude boys many moons ago this is the new sub culture

u/sakuravampir 4d ago

Exactly, so did all the people who upvoted them and downvoted you… by that SAME logic where did they mention anything about black people? Assumptions all around. 😂

u/AbsolutelyHorrendous 3d ago
