Did you just write “fuzzy wuzzies”? I’m not sure if you’re willfully ignorant or an accidental reactionary has-been gammon dinosaur. What an asshole.

I’m certainly not ignorant, but I would not object to being described as a reactionary. Technically fuzzy wuzzy referred to Sudanese dervishes, which the delightful inhabitants of Gaza are not. What is a gammon?

I agree that, as a proper noun ‘Fuzzy-Wuzzy’, should not have been written in lower case.

Other than that I think your comment was rather impolite.

It was meant to be impolite. I could have said ‘a bunch of wogs’ making the same point.

I was referring to your interlocutor’s comment, not your original post (which I found refreshingly candid).

Apologies for my lack of clarity; English is a tricky language, until you get the hang of it.
