'Community'? Until you are fully qualified, you haven't the authority.kingstongraham said:
As a member of the PC community, I find that offensive. I'll be convening a cancellation committee forthwith.pinno said:

Yes I see the difference but I don't see why it matters much. There are plenty of examples of people posting things in closed WhatsApp groups getting then getting the sack when the contents are brought to the attention of their employer. Anyways, I don't understand what the argument is about now. I chose not to share some memes on a forum I am a member of because I didn't want to get banned by the admins or to go out of my way to cause offence to someone I don't know but who might find the subject matter distasteful. But I'm getting flamed anyway?veronese68 said:
One can only be seen by people in the closed group, the other is accessible to anyone and everyone. Can you not see the difference other than you might not get sacked for acting like a twunt.shortfall said:kingstongraham said:
It's not, because anyone can see what you post here.shortfall said:
I don't doubt it. But what is cakestop if it isn't a sort of WhatsApp group by another name? Loads of blokes (I think I'm safe in saying) posting silly things and sharing jokes. Bally has just posted one above about Oprah that I think is hilarious but no doubt others will find racist and distasteful.elbowloh said:
I haven't seen anything about Harry and Meghan in my whatsapp because none of my friends give a censored about the whole episode. Pretty sure if they did, there wouldn't be anything racist in there.shortfall said:
No it's what a lot of people who aren't on cakestop share on WhatsApp. On the point about whether they're all racist I was wrong, some of them were very sexist and gingerist too. I would guess that I'm not the only person in cakestop who's seen them either.kingstongraham said:
Is that called an echo chamber then?shortfall said:
Errrr. No.kingstongraham said:
There must be at least a few that aren't racist.shortfall said:God I've got so many of these memes on WhatsApp but I fear the mods might ban me.
I don't see much of a distinction. Barring a tiny minority, the posters on here are anonymous, and unless they unwittingly share too much of themselves or happen to know each other by other means, whilst posting something inappropriate might get them a ban from the forum, it wouldn't necessarily cause them any problems at work etc.kingstongraham said:
