Genuine question, and not being a snowflake ginger person here, but would it be acceptable to create a poll for worst woman/bald person/black person/gay person/transgender person/Jewish person/Palestinian person/disabled person, etc?
Struggling to understand what people find so funny about 'gingers' as their 'carte blanche' prejudice of choice other than it seems to go without check in a world where most people rightly call out unnecessary discrimination based on the way people look, when that has no bearing on the way they choose to behave.

Anyway. You do you.

It's just another chance to take a dig at Evil Ed Sheeran.

A very fair point - I thought we’d moved on from mocking genetic traits.
At least Ashton can sleep well tonight, knowing the pitchforks have moved away from him, and towards Framlingham.

I’ve read the threads today and kept out of it.
You have repeatedly over exaggerated.
There’s no pitchforks. There’s no cancellations. There’s no call for cancellation.
Some of you just can’t help yourselves with this stuff.
Most of the discussion has been pretty civil albeit the usual offenders are trying really hard to be funny (about genocide!) and target a couple of posters they don’t like.

What's sad is that the OP posted another topic about what the 'fair, sane, decent and humane' world is up against, in reaction to Ed Sheeran not engaging in politics that cause division and discrimination, yet posts a seemingly discriminatory poll about people judged by the way they look. It is sad to see.

Do you think this poll was not a bit hypocritical, though?
Compounding the dislike of a person's apolitical stance with their appearance?
I'm asking as someone who has been bullied about their appearance all through school and felt discriminated against, even though I can laugh at times, if the jokes are in good taste.
See a political stance you don't like? Let's create a poll about the least likeable person that has the same appearance as them.
You just wouldn't see that happen if Ed Sheeran was black.
