Non black people thinking behaviour like that is a “mistake” or “he didn’t know better” are the reason racism is so rife in this country. You’re not black and don’t get it and it’s okay to admit that. What isn’t okay is to vouch for him like he’s the pillar of society. Calling out tit behaviour isn’t abusive and he doesn’t need therapy, he needs to have his platform removed. I’d feel unsafe around him personally due to his comments and it’s unfair to let him get away with it when you’ve seen how black people have been treated by this shows production.

Louder for the people in the back
 
I think the producers should either get rid of Danny quickly and quietly (and before now i.e. when the N thing came to light), or they should be editing him in a more favourable light (or just not showing much of him at all) because by fueling peoples feelings about him (racist, threatening etc) they are actually putting his life/mental health in danger.
I think the producers are really in error with this, they need to do proper due diligence before they enter and if they don't they need to react quickly by getting them out and not flaunting them.
Orrrr maybe he is those things and the producers aren’t editing anything in any particular way?
 
Regarding Danny and this thread, it’s probably best to stick to what we know. Yes he used racist language and it's ok to be offended by that and think he should have been pulled out. (or never put in in the first place) It’s also fine to not like him on the show, along with most of the others, let’s be honest.

The tattoo thing and tanning injections is speculative. I do think it's ok to not like someone, but this is getting a bit like a pile on situation. We all have a responsibility with what we put out there on the internet, whether it's direct to them or not. Some people may read these things and believe them to be true, then it snowballs.

I don't like him, but am genuinely starting to feel a bit bad for him because he’s going to have to see all this backlash.

The producers should think about what they're doing.

Why do you assume that everyone who is not condemning Danny is non black? Nobody is saying that Danny is a pillar of society and nobody is saying that what he said was right. However, I personally don’t think that what he said warrants the level of abuse he is getting. Nobody is perfect…people make mistakes and I think the public need to calm down and realise that calling Danny abusive and a racist when they don’t even know him is not right either.

Do you think it’s okay to call people a word that has the history that it does? Yes or no? QUICKLY.
He’s an adult.

You're grown ass just said you'd feel unsafe with him around... When he starts throwing furniture around and hurling racist insults I'll see your point.

That word is a racist insult…lol.
 
He's been called all sorts. Abusive. Nazi. White supremacist. He hasn't come across aggressive in my eyes he's entitled to get annoyed with silly little girls trying to play games and speak his mind. I don't particularly like or dislike Danny but the slaughtering he's recieving is uncalled for.

You really havent seen the aggression? Hes aggy as duck lol, all stemming from insecurity. Typical 'nice guy'. Lucinda is a dicktease but I dont side with blaming a woman for a man like that. Her games and his insecurity is a disaster in waiting. His language and facial expressions and how quick he switched it up - aggy!
 
I feel like there's so many missing interpersonal scenes this year. I have no sense of who's friends with who. I honestly don't know how they fill 43 minutes of footage in each episode because barely anything is shown?
Yeah whenever they do tasks they’re like oh you’re my bestie in here I love you but we literally never see anyone together apart from if they’re in couples. Apart from Kaz and Liberty but i feel I’ve only seen that because of Twitter.
 
When Liam imiatated loose - hilarious
When Millie imitated loose - hilarious
When Danny imitated loose- disgusting/shocking/ abusive

Not condoning what he's done in the past but the producers have really done a number on him! There's nothing he can do now, hes just gna be hated, they just need to get him out there for his own health and safety!
Cause he was being nasty and belittling. Context matters.
 
Wonder when Casa Amore is going to happen and if they will be brutal this year and dump the leftover singletons! I think they used to do it but changed so Amber could stay in when Kem came back with someone!
Hopefully to spice it up. I feel like the real couples will stick it out and stay loyal and the rest will just throw in the towel and move on to greener pastures so dumping singles would really get them going.
