I am imagining a Spanish Football forum, where a person is complaining about "Half Caste" being substituted in a song being played on a celebrity dance program on telly.

In Spain? Wouldn’t happen

Unless you’re a fan, probably the most hated programme on the bbc. Can’t stand it and it’s nauseating, narcissistic narrative. You just know it’ll be running until end of time with it’s never ending clap a long audience from the Home Counties and London, darling...
Thank god we have dozens of other channels to choose from these days!

" Strictly " is an absolute shitefest of bollocks, there is no audience allowed due to social distancing yet the squeals and whooping have been ramped up to almost intolerable levels..... there's NO ONE ****in there but that ****in squealing !!!!!!

Can I count you in for the Strictly Live Roadshow in the Spring then?

Anyone care to explain how the word Mulata is offensive and needs changing?

Because it gives some right on **** a well paid job, an ‘Offence Prevention Officer’ on £100k per year.

You'll probably find it's the same as English, a few years ago "half cast" would've been acceptable but is now almost as bad as the N word. Although mixed race means the same thing, the former has certain negative connotations, maybe this Spanish saying is along those lines and has rightly been changed for something less offensive.

Is the right answer .... in some cases it also has the connotation of being a whore as well as mixed race. It’s as bad as the N word.
