What? Really? Where have you been? He's been making dodgy remarks since 1986. My God, I'm his staunchest defender, and I would never claim his record is spotless. I sat in my room listening to "Bengali In Platforms" and I knew then and there, on the first listen, without the aid of the NME or anyone else, that he was "swimming in murky waters" (thanks Martin Smith!)
poetically "swimming in murky waters" is one thing - a racist remarks is another
and "Morrissey is the context." - means nothing
Let me respectfully ask you a question. How is it you confidently claim to have "a mountain of evidence" that Morrissey is not a racist, yet this mountain crumbles away and scatters to the four winds just because he made an obviously emotional off-the-cuff remark? Doesn't that give you pause? How can one word overturn a mountain?
because the remark was racist
