deIeted in reply to @Dammit

The two chaps with whom I am having the discussion are:

A retired Taxi driver (London, Black Cab), who believes that Robert E Lee was "misunderstood"
A light-machine shop operator from Lancashire who voted for Brexit

So they're both massive racists, although I think there is a gap in Mens Rea between the two of them.

Are we accepting that anyone who voted for Brexit is a "massive racist"?

No looks like the formula is:

Blue collar, from up north, Brexit voter = Racist

Black Cab driver, Robert E Lee glorifier = Racist

Given that Brexit was mentioned only in one and I'm guessing that there was a lot more material to go on from their posts then no, we are not acccepting that and in fact it hasn't been suggested.
