Re: Did Morrissey's anti-Chinese racism have anything to do with Tseng getting booted
You can't be a champion of free speech and 2 months later kick someone out because you don't like what a third person writes on a message board.
Theo you may be on to something. I can't get past he actions when he makes a statement like this: "The very existence of the Queen and her now enormous family ... is entirely against any notion of democracy, and is against freedom of speech. For a broad historical view of what the Queen is and how she 'rules', examine Gaddafi or Mubarak, and see if you can spot any difference."I see that in the "Off Topic" section of this forum a person created the screenname "Stoney Hando" to post a thread backing Morrissey.
The thread is MORRISSEY vs. David "SOLOW" Tseng - I CHOOSE MORRISSEY!
"Stoney Hando" is a racist skinhead character in the Australian movie Romper Stomper. In the film, the character likes to violently attack Asian immigrants, because in his opinion they don't belong there.
Morrissey is a big fan of that movie, once signed a press release under the name "Stoney Hando", and took a line from the movie - "this is not your country" - as a song title. And it's a powerful movie. But, sometimes we have to wonder if Morrissey likes that movie for the wrong reasons, given his issues with race over the years. And we can see the reason that fan is using the name, in the wake of Morrissey's actions.
So, Morrissey's Nazi treatment of Tseng is generating racism.
For another example, this was just posted by one of Morrissey's fans elsewhere on the site:
BTW, did Morrissey and the band ever give David Tseng his refund, as they should? Perhaps one of Boz Boorer's butt-lickers should ask Boz over on his Facebook wall.
